When I went trick or treating with him, because we went early, there weren’t a lot of kids around. So every door we came upon, he had to either ring the doorbell or knock on the door.
And one of my thoughts was.. just press the doorbell, or knock on the door!
Why can’t you just do it?
Well guess what… that’s what I say to myself a lot.
Back then when I wanted to say something to my mom, why can’t you just say something?
Back then when I wanted to speak up at work meetings, why can’t you just speak up?
Now building up my business and talking to people, why can’t you just do it?
Honest truth is, it is hard.
And my nervous system had been trained to freeze since I was young.
So it takes me extremely long to get myself to the next stage.
Guess what? Midway through watching my son rang the doorbell, I silently said to him, “I’m so proud of you for being able to do that!”
And I teared up.
Cause I needed to hear that.
So if you need to hear it too.
I’m proud for how far you’ve come, and how you’re now able to do whatever you can do now.
And for the things you still want to do, but can’t yet?
Let’s take it one tiny step at a time, we get to train our nervous system to calm down, so we can take the next step.
My first celebration is I did my first Live Training in my FB group!! It’s about why we can’t speak up to our parents, and what we can do to prepare ourselves for the conversation.
So if you would like to watch it and learn more, join my group, Journey to Me.
