Why Do So Many Have Trouble with It?
One of the biggest things is something that I’ve already mentioned in the previous module. Do you remember when I said that it is your curiosity that can fuel that connection? That very question sometimes will stop somebody for years because they allow their ego to get in the way in those moments and they won’t admit that they’re being nosey. Please understand I mean nosey and curious with the utmost love, because in truth, most of us are. The expectation that one places on themselves once they realize that they’re gifted, can sometimes leave them with a weight on their shoulders that is not necessary. There are also some stories out there that tell you when a moment of connection happens that it is your job to help that person in one manner or another. That’s simply not true, it is not your job, but the interwoven truth of it is that you have the capability to help that person in that moment “if” you choose to. For many this can be a difficult one to audit within their own life, where to draw the line? When is it okay to say no? Finally saying “no”, walking away, and wondering “what happened?” All of those questions require you to be emotionally stable in order to answer them properly rather than trying to ask them out of expectation or some semblance of pressure. When you’re able to choose whether you’re going to connect with somebody or not going to connect with somebody, for reasons that are only your own, you’re able to move forward from that decision without regret. Good chances are, if you have felt regret because you have said no to somebody or yes to somebody that decision was probably made out of expectation. Making sure that you’re doing the work on self along the way is such a crucial step in moving onto helping other people around you. Not only can you honor your own boundaries, but you can make sure that you don’t step over others’ as well.
