Maybe you're an aspiring entrepreneur. Maybe you are ready to jump back into school. Maybe you’re ready to demand the promotion you rightfully deserve. Maybe you are becoming a first-time parent.
These at the end of the day require the same thing: Belief in yourself.
And most of us haven’t believed in ourselves since we were 4 years old and determined to climb up the jungle gym.
For one reason or another self-trust was slowly stripped from us. Parents or caretakers trying to protect us from their own personal experiences. Or maybe the exact opposite they were just projecting all their trauma all over us. Friends who thought they knew better than us. Or my favorite sharing my thoughts and then being told they were dumb.
Whatever made you fall out of loving yourself and being a confident decider, is now bleeding into your adult life and future.
When you doubt yourself on a deep level it shows no matter how much you try to repress it. It’s like the saying if you are looking for trouble don’t be surprised when you find it.
When you are not believing in yourself don’t be surprised that it doesn’t always work out.
So what are you to do?
First
If you can’t believe in yourself believe in your magic. Believe in the energies bigger than you. Have belief in your guides, Universe, ancestors, or deities you are devoted to. This takes off the extra pressure of needing to do everything yourself.
Abraham Hicks has this exercise that will help with that.
On a piece of paper write down two lists one labeled What I can do and the other What the Universe Can Do.
You can only do so much. You can’t control the free will of your child but you can control your response. You can’t control how many clients sign up but you can control how you respond and show up in your business.
Second
Utilizing your Human Design is a way of co-creating with the Universe. It is a way to do your part as mentioned above and for energies bigger than you to do their part.
Using your Strategy and Authority will help with that. In one of my podcasts, I talked about How Learning your Strategy is giving space for Source to show up for you. It is a trust that if you wait or inform that the rest will be taken care of.
Using your Authority is learning to trust yourself. Your intuition. Your Higher Self to lead the way of what is the right decision. This will be better done in baby steps. No need to freak out your nervous system by trying to use your Authority for some giant decision.
Third
Call back your power. Sit in meditation and imagine all of your power flooding back to you. Times you’ve lost your power will naturally come up and imagine standing in your power.
Imagine what this self-trusted confident human would do. Then do it.
You might not have self-trust now but that does not mean you are doomed to never trust yourself again.
You can begin today. You can begin now.
