Permission

If you spend your life waiting for approval and permission from others, then your life will be mainly on hold or be being directed by others and what they want.

We do not need permission or approval to do anything. Well, we used to have to get permission to go to the toilet at school.

We’ve been sold certainty and become conditioned to comply with others rules. This leads us then to seek permission or approval from others when we are faced with uncertainty, risk, or faced with something outside our comfort zones.

It’s your life and you can give yourself permission to do anything that you want. The right people for you will not judge and will be attracted to you because you are being genuinely you.

Permit yourself to be you. Live the life that will make you happy.

Not choosing

We can be gripped by the fear of starting something or doing something different, we are fearful of change.

Yet why do we not fear doing nothing?

Doing nothing or not choosing has consequences too. Just because it is doing the same thing and we perceive it to be comfortable or safe does not mean that there aren’t consequences. In fact, often a whole lot more than doing something has.

We do not need to fear anything, but we only seem to fear change, doing, different and risky.

Perhaps we are frightened of living our life how we want and, therefore, we accept comfortable, safe and certain. Where perhaps if we feared routine, comfort and avoiding choice, then we might choose doing or change more often.
