horse eyeThere are days we need to be a part of a mastermind. You know a group of people who get together and work on strategy. It may be personal strategies on how to create new beginnings in your life.

There have been times that I like to hide out and not face what’s going on around me. Or maybe I’m not sure how to handle the situation.

I don’t like confrontation and have become a master at avoiding it. So much so that it is sometimes to my detriment. Does this ever happen to you? You don’t want to face something, so you procrastinate only to find out that it wasn’t so bad after all.

I have this problem when placing phone calls or even reaching out to someone via email. I’m fine at responding to someone’s inquiry. It’s initiating the conversation that gets me. Will I use the right words? Will the party on the other end understand me? Am I reaching out too soon, and will they ask questions I’m not prepared to answer? Will I sound stupid? Never mind that when I’ve done mock sessions with people, I’m always given positive feedback.

Quote on Martin Luther King, Jr memorial

Out of a Mountain of Despair A Stone of Hope. This quote is on the Martin Luther King, Jr memorial in Washington DC.

It’s that troll on my shoulder who’s telling me I’m not smart or don’t know enough. It’s an attitude that I picked up years ago. From the teacher who put me in the janitor’s closet across the hall because I didn’t do my homework. From the line of women on my mother’s side of the family who felt a need to be taken care of by men. My grandmother on my father’s side was a science teacher when that was a rare thing for a woman and my grandfather on my mother’s side had two strong independent women for sisters. Even so, I picked up on the need to be taken care of.

We all pick up things in childhood that would be better for us to release. Whether it is a troll or a martyr. Is it time to revamp your life? To make changes for the better.

Do you have some new beginnings that you’d like to explore? Join me in the New Beginnings Vision Series where we’ll explore what you would like to have renewed in the next year. For more information click the button below.
