What's YOUR Truth?
Posted on October 17, 2012 by Dr Kristen A Tolbert, One of Thousands of Executive Coaches on Noomii.
So many of us are living other people’s lives, living other peoples truths and realities. It doesn't have to be this way!
Can you handle the truth? Sometimes, we say that we want the truth, but we ignore the truth. Sometimes, we get the truth and we don’t like it and we react strongly, we reject it or avoid it. Sometimes, the truth has been available all along. Sometimes, it’s not obvious and we need to dig a little deeper. We may have the truth in smaller fragmented doses. Truth shows up in character, messages, symbols and signs, but sometimes we ignore it. Sometimes, it’s blatant in our face and we distort it to make it fit in our larger world. We pretend not to see it, because somehow that changes things for us and allows us to live in a uncomfortably comfortable space. Then we settle for mediocre. Until we realize that we’ve been lying to ourselves all along.
So many of us are living other people’s lives, living other peoples truths and realities. Sometimes, we hang on to things that no longer serve us well out of fear and uncertainties about what’s around the corner. When we are living our lives in this way, it is really hard to be successful. We don’t feel like ourselves. Everything is harder.
Ignore Everyone. What’s your truth? What’s your mission in this lifetime? What’s your mission for this year? Think about this for a bit. What do you really want to be doing in and with your life? Really. YOUR truth -not someone else’s truth or what you think the world wants or expects from you or where the fear has you holding back. I’d like to offer you a challenge to connect with your You-nique truth.
Wishing you a bold and exciting Truth Exploration!
