WHEN YOU ARE ATTACHED, YOU LOSE…

I have a ritual of taking stock of my week every Sunday evening.

I did the same this past week, reflecting on my plan to attract a new intimate partner while navigating a traumatizing divorce.

But here is what I realized while taking stock of this past week.

I realized I was anxious. Perhaps a bit under pressure- for someone who hasn’t been intimate with someone else for over two years now and can’t wait to get it right lol, I think it’s okay to say the pressure is real.

But as someone who practices mindfulness, I have some thoughts to share.

Here are the things I discovered after carefully thinking things through.

Whenever I feel pressured, I know it is often due to the need to present a certain image to others. It is often about what I want others to think of me. How I want them to perceive me.

I have learned that it’s okay not to measure up to those expectations.

For instance, people would think my life is going well if tomorrow I announce that I am engaged to be married to someone else.

But what if I never marry? What if I remain single for life? Lol, that is not the point of this article.

I am simply here to remind you that as you heal from childhood trauma or other traumas, you will no longer live from the outside in; you will begin to live from the inside out.

You will no longer try to measure up to societal expectations of you.

You will begin to live life not worrying about deadlines set by people or timelines of others, but you will learn to live life on your terms.

Later today, I will share why you will likely lose what you are attached to.

I will share what I have lost and what those losses teach me about being unattached to outcomes.

Healing requires deep work, and when you get my book, Broken Child, Broken Adult, you are doing yourself a favor. The book is now on preorder on Amazon.

Preorder of the reviewer copy of my book ends by April 30th. Hurry now!

If you are a business executive, you need the executive therapy program.

You can only achieve great success if you heal from your hurts or wounds as a business leader.

I hope you invest in your healing…

ideyforyou,
