I’m no quitter
Failure isn’t an option.
I hate to fail.
Quitting is for the weak.
Bullshit!
Our fear of failure and perception of quitting often means we stay in shit situations, crap relationships and friendships, jobs etc for far too long that is healthy for us. Our EGO state says that if we leave or quit then we are a failure or have failed. So instead of moving on, we stay the same because of this false belief from our EGO that to stay is safer, to keep going despite all the signs saying it isn’t working is better than trying something new, that what is known is safer than the unknown.
This is not always a healthy belief to have and keeps us small and imprisoned in the illusion of fear. The most successful people have failed more times than most have even attempted, and they walk away when it no longer feels right.
There are times to stay and there are times to quit. This is where we need to challenge if this is our EGO state, a belief and fear that is keeping us in situations.
What am I afraid of?
Am I afraid to move on?
Do I fear failure?
Do I fear judgement from myself and others?
Do I believe that I don’t deserve anything better?
Let me say here that I get it. I stayed in a relationship that I knew very early on wasn’t right for me, with a man who cheated because I was scared.
Scared that people would judge me a loser for it not working.
Scared people would think I was a quitter.
Scared that I was a failure.
Such bullshit!
When I did leave nobody thought that of me, and if they did, it was none of my business. Looking back now I am really grateful for that relationship as it changed me and challenged many beliefs I had and made me adjust the path I was on, onto the path that felt far better for me.
I was no longer in energetic alignment to that relationship. It was the best decision to move away from it. It meant that I gave myself permission to say yes to me, and to learn discernment and to follow my intuition and leave other friendships and situations that were no longer in alignment for me.
I no longer see failure as a bad thing.
It is an opportunity to learn, to grow and to readjust your course.
It is an opportunity to invite something better into your life, something that is more in alignment to your energy and what you are needing.
It is an opportunity to follow what lights you up, what feels good.
It is an opportunity to say yes to you.
You truly are magnificent.
