6 Reasons You Fear Trust

Finding the true reason of why you don't trust.
Fear of….1. Being hurt – Honestly, taking the leap can hurt; I will not lie to you. But I would rather get a little dirty then stand on the sideline clean watching everyone else live life.
2. Being vulnerable- It’s much easier to be vulnerable when you love yourself fully. I mean flaws and all. You tend not be phased as much by people that don’t live up to your expectations. And when you’re less afraid of being rejected, you’re more willing to be in a place of openness.
3. Being happy- So many of us, we’re afraid to be too happy because it’s an unfamiliar space or we feel we don’t deserve it. Then we find ways to sabotage this happy feeling. Before you go running for the hills: Stop, take a deep breath and welcome it with open arms. You may just be surprised.
4. Showing the REAL you- If you’re trying to be someone you’re not, then you’re robbing the world of what you have to offer. You are the best YOU. Let go of who you’re not and EMBRACE who you are.
5. Failure- If you’re always striving for something that’s not realistic – then you can open the door for negative self-talk. Failure actually makes us better people. If we don’t know what doesn’t work, how will we find out what does. Remember, testimonies start out as test.
6. Self-doubt- Your inner critic can pop up frequently. Question them? Decide if they’re real or beliefs you made up. Rephrase your negative voices until they reflect the positivity of who you actually are.
Do any of these make your fear list? Did you know that the life you want involves taking a HUGE risk? It’s scary I know, because the truth is you may fall flat on your face or end up with a broken heart. But then again, it can be the step you needed to take to actually accomplish your goals. Or, that new love interest could be better than you could have ever dreamed of. So, before you start listening to that inner critic telling you why you shouldn’t, I challenge you to take the leap and TRUST.
