OK, here is the big one: accountability. Don’t ask someone to hold you accountable if you are just going to spit in their face and tell them that they don’t know what they are talking about.
If you make the decision to have someone hold you accountable - you and only you have to be willing to grab a hold of your knees and take the swat. Otherwise you will stay where you are and nothing will change.
One thing you will find as you share with trusted persons, that sometimes we don’t see things as clearly as we might think. We just need a new perspective and/or the next steps to overcome.
Talking through things brings new understanding. It also allows us to see where our thinking or mindset is wrong or needs adjusted.
