Detaching from Old Stories E19

The stories we tell ourselves provide an insight into our subconscious minds: our fears, desires and ambitions. When we reflect on these stories, we can learn more about ourselves – what our values are, what we view as meaningful and important. Many of the stories that we've told ourselves for most of our lives are stories that once served us and kept us feeling 'safe" but no longer do. You’re not good enough.” “Who are you to do this?” “You’re not young enough to do that.” “What will others think of you?” “What if you get rejected?” "You aren't worthy of a healthy and loving relationship, you'll always be stuck." Insert your story here..... These stories are often on loop, and they repeat over & over again in our minds and they keep us stuck believing them. You might not even realize it, but the story you tell about yourself says more about you than the story. The way you see the story says something about you. Neither good nor bad, it simply is. I invite you to raise your self-awareness to help you consciously and proactively decide if you still want that story. Is it serving you? Perhaps it's attracting more people into your life with the same stories? Do you feel that? Maybe, like me, you’re tired of blaming external circumstances. Maybe you’re ready to change yourself. Maybe you’re ready for one of the most meaningful journey’s you can take... the journey to better understand yourself. Blame is the discharge of comfort and pain. Maybe it’s time to face within and stop blaming. Maybe it's time that you detach from an old story and rewrite a new one. Your story does not define you, it’s just your story. But it is not you. The more you attach your identity with your story, the more friction you create for yourself in changing your story. The key is to be willing to feel through and detach from these old stories to be fully open to create the new ones. Be free from the old in order to embody the new. I challenge you to sit with an old story of yours and see how you can detach from it and create a new one. Reach out if you need support or encouragement.
