✍️ Build Trust Through Reflection

Published about 1 month ago • 2 min read

Hi Reader, trusting ourselves isn't always easy, especially in new or tough situations. Reflecting on our past achievements will help us build self-trust for what we are going through today.

​

To start this week, pick one thing that you are struggling to trust yourself with. The question can be: What am I doubting myself about?

Try and narrow this down to the smallest component that is causing doubt. The more specific you are the more you can narrow in on what will help you build trust.

​

Next, create a list of times you were successful or made it through difficult times. This list of things does not need to relate to what you are currently doubting. It is anything that you have found success with. Just because you might be struggling with a work issue doesn’t mean that a success in gardening won’t help!

It also doesn’t have to be focused only on things like work, school and fitness. You can include moments of emotional resilience; mindset shifts and fun life things – like cooking a meal you haven’t tried before.

You may want to put this list in digital format so you can continually add to it. It makes it easier to go back to it when you need to do this journaling exercise again.

​

Then one at a time explore each time on your list to show yourself how you had or built trust.

​

The following are questions you can use for exploration.

  • Did I know at the beginning I was going to be successful?
    • If yes, did I lose that belief at some point? What did I do to get out of the doubt?
  • How did I keep myself motivated when I was struggling?
  • What made me successful with this?
  • What similarities are there between this situation and what I am facing today?
    • How can I harness these similarities to build trust in what I am doubting now?

​

Keep going through each item on your list until you find a way that you can build trust in yourself today. You may find that what worked in two completely different situations, when combined, is what you need today!

​

You got this,

Andrea

I help people re-create their life by integrating spiritual practices with daily living.

When you are going through major life transitions everything you believe about yourself, and life can be called into question. Opening the door to spiritual growth. But spiritual growth in isolation doesn't support your daily needs. Integrating spiritual with traditional personal development and life management allows you to become your true self. My newsletters provide you the actionable tools to manage your spiritual growth and your healing journey at the same time. Including journal prompts and how to get the most from them.

Hi Reader, This week's channeled guidance is out. You can watch the video here. Summary This week's message was all about not being able to see the solution to our problems because we are stuck in groups of people that are experiencing the same thing. Plus, we aren't going beyond our normal activities for inspiration. We are encouraged to interact with new people and places. And these don't have to be completely new - just not part of our everyday reality. It can be a friend you haven't seen...

Hi Reader, This week's channeled guidance is out. You can watch the entire video here. Summary This week is all about being called to use our gifts in life, but being full of fear, doubt and indecision to take any action. The guides want us to let fear become our friend and show us what we should be concerned about. Then make plans to handle those concerns. And we don't have to be 100% ready to use our gifts. We learn along the way - that is how we master them. They closed out after the tips...
