How many times have you had someone making comment about who or what you are? Or, what you can or can’t do with your life?
Ever notice how those comments play on your thoughts and ideas about how you see yourself?
When those remarks come from someone you really care about, pushing back in order to determine your own path becomes even harder.
You knew at a basic level that you have the right to determine who you are, to take your own path. It takes a real personal strength to decide who you are and the path you wish to take.
Those little voices tend to creep into our heads.
I still have to push back on the voice of my mother who brushed off my desire to write as “pie in the sky” that would never happen. She’s been dead for seventeen years and that still tries to push it’s way into my space.
I work hard to keep it at bay. Everytime I look at one of my posts on Steemit making income, I remind myself that is real income, no matter how small and I earned it. It’s not ‘pie in the sky’.
What messages do you push back on that the world has tried to give you?
That is a very good question. I found the quote attributed to her but nothing on who she is. Apparently someone appreciates what she has to say.
*I will try to find information on the author of the quotes I share. I wont always be successful.
Don’t know about you, but I find it interesting to know who the person was that anyone took the time to record or quote that person.*
I love being inspired by other people’s quotes. I thought I’d start sharing some quotes that inspire me along with my own thoughts the quote evokes within me. So, think of someone, like me, sitting quietly with the first fresh coffee of the day and mediating about the words of the quote. That would be me, or it could be you.
I invite you to share your own thoughts on the quote in the comments.
