Stop should-ing on yourself

I should do this. I should do that.

When I ask a client or a friend, or truth be told- even myself, ‘What do you want to do?’ and the response goes right to ‘Well, I should…’

STOP.

Stop right there if you catch yourself ‘should-ing’ yourself.

What do you WANT to do? Not what you think you should. Not what you think is expected of you. Feel into your body, what do you WANT to do?

Answer from that place. Get to know yourself again. Not the self that’s been boxed in and placed into a perfect little mold of who you think you ‘should be.’

The self that IS you, under all the should’s.

Ask her what she wants to do.

Then if you’re brave enough (which you are), go do that.

You’ve got this. You haven’t gone far. The world needs who you are.
