Our choices and decisions seem limitless. With so many options it can be challenging to make a decision. Many of us research and try to find the best choice. We search the internet and ask our friends and family. I have done this many times myself. But often it feels like whatever advice I get doesn’t always feel like it fits me. It does however often help me clarify what I want.

I think it is our need to connect with others and fit in that makes us so dependent on other people’s advice and opinions. I fear that listening too much to others however takes our power away. What most of us need is to go within ourselves and see what we want. Search within.

Once you find what feels right then the next challenge is to be brave and confident enough to stick with what is truly right for you, instead of listening to others who are not you. They do not know what is deep within your soul. They do not know your purpose or desires.

This is one thing I am learning to do more. Trust myself more. I tend to overthink many of my decisions often letting my fears dictate my choices more than what I feel I truly want. Fears that I’m not good enough or that I’m not going to be successful so why bother trying.

Many of us get so caught up in life we forget to check in with ourselves and listen to what we need. When you get clear on what you want do everything you can to maintain your focus on what you want and why you want it. Sometimes the universe will do some of the work lining up a plan to make your desires come true. This has happened to me many times.

Including the universe lining up to help me get back into blog writing after almost two years of putting it off, my main excuse being that I couldn’t remember my password and needed to find it to write my next blog post. The most hilarious thing was as soon as I was set to look for it I found it on the first piece of paper I grabbed…but that is not the most crazy part. The most crazy part is that my password had been saved this whole time so I didn’t even need it to log in to write a new post.

All that wasted time because I thought something was going to be so difficult, but then it was like my fairy godmother gave me a magic key to unlock my website again.
