I love the “What would I do question” and I’ve popped it in my journal to mull over. The irony is that I do believe that things are going to end up ok. Almost 40 years of anecdotal evidence tells me that even if things don’t end up the way I wanted or expected them to, they still end up okay. Sometimes even better. So I love the idea of challenging myself with this question before I’m stressed or feel like I’m backed into a corner with a decision I don’t really want to make in the first place, but proactively. What is it that I want to do knowing - beyond any doubt - that it’s okay to do life my way?
I also love the idea of raising the narratives playing in my head rather than just letting them fester.
I am so glad that question is helpful - I feel very wobbly with it, but I think it's a good one to keep trying to use! And yes putting the narratives out in the open is so good, it's a slow process and feels really awkward at times, but I can see that it gradually it's making a difference. Thank you so much for reading and sharing your thoughts x
