Don’t Neglect What You Are Feeling Inside

Take care of your feelings. They are your messengers. They are your hidden friends. And they are also your hidden enemies.

They are your hidden friends when you know how to use them to your advantage, when you know what to do with them when they show up, when you know how to manage them.

They are your enemies when you do not know what to do with them when they show up in your life, when you give in to them, when they take charge of your life. And when they are doing the making, when they are doing the driving.

That is why you should always listen to what is happening inside your body. If you don’t know what is going on inside your body, do not judge, just listen.

That is what your feelings really want. They want you to listen to them. When you listen, you will hear what they are saying. If you don’t, you will continue to live in pain, in fear.

When you are not happy with yourself, take your time to know what is going on in your life. Do not say, ‘Why me?’ Instead of bringing yourself down, why not ask, ‘What is the lesson here? What can I take away from this feeling?’ And you do have a lot to take away. To do that, you must not neglect what your inner self is telling you.

Share Your Shame

Shame is heavy. If you have the courage to share your own shame, you are going to feel better about yourself.

Shame is why people don’t talk about their mistakes. Shame is why people don’t bring other people into their lives. Shame is why people hide their mistakes. Shame is why we keep ourselves away from the life that God has created for us.

Shame is a devil. If you do not talk about it, it is going to keep you small. It is not going to leave you alone.

Not talking about your failures, not talking about your weaknesses, not talking about what you are struggling with, not talking about what is bothering you, it is only going to get worse.

If you want to walk freely, to enjoy your life, to increase your happiness, and to bring more love into your life, to do what you are doing really well, you must be brave enough to talk about your shame.

When you talk about your shame, when you own your shame, when you don’t care about what other people are saying about you, moving forward becomes really easier to face.

The question is, ‘Do you have the courage to do what you are not good at? Do you have the courage to face your shame?
