Stop blocking the positive energy in your life!
How being skeptical and distrustful of others and even of yourself blocks all the
positive things which could come into your life.
For years, I was very certain that being skeptical is such a good thing to be. I
thought it prevents me from being cheated on me, from undertaking things which I
would regret in the future or from believing and following a guru who wouldn’t do
me any good.
For sure, a certain amount of skepticism is rather healthy and in certain professions,
it is needed like in journalism where I worked some years ago.
But I changed my mind regarding my own life. Being skeptical doesn’t do any
good, when I want to bring joy and happiness into my life.
Why? If I have doubts about my own happiness, my life gets rather painful. For
example: If I’m skeptical whether the other person is truly positive, or whether she
or he only wants to please me, I cannot fully enjoy the positive feelings.
If I’m skeptical when I get something beautiful like a beautiful feedback on how the
other person sees me, I cannot enjoy it.
If I’m skeptical when something in my life runs smoothly, because I’m afraid it could
change every second or every minute again, I cannot be happy of what just
happened to me.
Does this resonate with you?
Are you skeptical whether you can trust others or not?
Isn’t it bothering when you don’t know what to think, if you’re wrong or if the other
person is really trustworthy?
I remember those moments. They were bothering me a lot. I was thinking and
thinking, and my thoughts endlessly rotated in my head. At the end, I felt so tired
and completely lost, because there was no answer which felt good to me.
Do you know this situation?
How about bringing more trust into your life? How can you do that?
How about starting to take the words as they are and not thinking any more what
else they might mean?
At the beginning, you might start thinking again. But as soon as you realize what is
going on in your head, you tell yourself: stop!
For example, if someone told you that you have helped her or him a lot by what
you were doing for this person, say thank you and start feeling how beautiful this is.
Feel it with your heart and it will give you a lot of joy. And trust yourself that all this is
true: what this person says, what you feel right now and how awesome your life is.
Nobody can take it away. It’s real, it’s beautiful, and it can be repeated as many
times as you want.
It’s up to you, if you trust and if you let go all skepticism.
Enjoy the process! I’m wishing you a lot of beautiful moments!
