Whenever we buy into the opinions of others and whether or not we should have done this or that, we can kiss inner guidance goodbye. Standing on our heads to try and please others is never going to keep us – or them – happy for very long, since there are way too many fickle attitudes, judgments, and perspectives to keep anyone other than ourselves happy for very long.  The inner journey requires that we move toward – not away from – what makes us feel happy and whole.  We begin the all-important journey of empowering ourselves, which can never take place until we “withdraw” from the opinions of others and how they would like for us to behave.

It helps to understand that all emotion is neither good nor bad – after all, how we feel is how we feel – and that emotion is simply an internal barometer that lets us know when the energy of our thoughts and beliefs is aligned or misaligned with the deeper, more soulful essence of who we already are (our kindest and most loving self).

While many of us have come to believe (falsely) that success is dependent upon the time-honored tradition of struggle and grind, nothing could be further from the truth. It is the stories we tell ourselves the most – and the emotional energy underlying the stories – that invents and defines our games. The success or failure that eventually manifests is not about effort but about what we believe, since the type of action we take is always preceded by imagination and belief and how easy or difficult we think the game should be.
