Trusting Myself

I was up all night. I watched the time change on my computer from 5:59 to 6:00am, took a little nap, and was off to the studio by 10:00am. My eyes are the only thing that feel a little tired right now. It is amazing to me the energy that inspiration provides. When I am doing what I love, what I feel I am called to do, honoring my truth, I am like the energizer bunny.....Go,Go,Go! I can actually feel a tingly energy flowing through my body. Some people might say "Are you sure you're alright, are you nuts?" However, I have an inkling that you may understand.

It is as if the universe is saying "RIGHT ON", "THUMBS UP", and here you go. We are sending you vibes from the stars, energy from the heavens to propel you forward. Assisting you to move in the direction of your purpose, what you are called to do. This is a sign to me that I am on the right track. The energy I feel is amazing. I don't even require coffee. Those who know me well might not believe me (I am a frequent coffee shop hanger outer and you can't come to my house without receiving an offer of "coffee or anything else" for you) but, it is true!

When I am given this gift of inspiration, I feel it is my responsibility to honor it. For me, this has been a process of learning to trust myself. In my family, I was labeled the "crazy one". I was often told that what I saw, thought, felt was all "in my head". I had a "wild imagination" I tell you this because this is part of the reason for my challenge with trusting myself. These messages were stuck in my head. It was as if the memory of them had made them true. Because they were stuck in their amongst all sorts of other memories which included facts, it seems I lumped them together into a category I called "what I learned as a child" Since they came from the big tall influential powerful people, they must be true. One particular memory locked them in and buried them deep. If it is true that I am the "crazy one", then changing that belief or any others would be considered crazy.

That being said, it is now my choice to believe it or not. I can decide whether or not any of these beliefs serve me anymore. It doesn't really even matter why I have them and all the details. I can simply change those beliefs based on new information. And actually, even if something were true at the time, I am not obliged to stay the same. I decide what is true for me today. And as I have said before, that can change as I change.

I can trust myself and follow the inspiration I feel in my heart. This is how I begin to "Honor My Truth!". To take action based on the inspiration I receive is all I am asked to do. I only have to trust a little and follow the next right feeling. When I am brave and I do this, I have always received the inspiration I require to move forward a little more. This process has assisted me to believe that it is true, I CAN TRUST MYSELF!
