Actually, it is not at all.
But I recently met someone who said that he had made the leap and that there were people he was leaving behind at work who thought it was a “stupid idea.”
“What !?” I said incredulously.
“Well,” he said, “there are many people who have said that they think it is great, but I am leaving this job to go to study, so that means I will not earn a regular income.”
“Good, and you’ve obviously found that you can make it work financially, and it’s the best for you right now, and you’re thinking about all the extra income you’ll get when you have that qualification and confidence to live your dream life … so, Who has come up to you and told you it’s a stupid idea? “I said, still incredulous.
“Well … uh, no one’s actually said it, but they haven’t complimented me and I know they think so.”
Oh.
First of all, when you think you know what someone else is thinking (I don’t care how well you know them) – you do not know! That is your thought that you have to think to imagine that someone else is thinking it, does it make sense?
Thinking that someone thinks quitting their job is a stupid idea stems from their fears. Negative emotions, beliefs, or decisions that are made at a deeper level are there for good intentions, so don’t be mad at yourself for having them. In this case, the decision to leave the job had already been made, so the unconscious belief that presented itself as a thought in someone else’s head (much easier to digest if it’s not you, right?) To make sure. to have a plan in place. That she did,
BUT, if that thought keeps you where you are, in a job you don’t want to be, dreaming of a life you do want, feeling stuck, frustrated, angry, or sad, as your confidence begins to weaken and your Energy and the will to live decrease, so you are giving in to fear and buying a limitation that is holding you back. By the way, if someone really tells you ‘it’s a stupid idea’, just thank them for their feedback.
Feedback is not always about you and is certainly not as negative as you might think at first … this could be your wish / fear, or it could be born out of love – they want to make sure you will be okay and you have thought it through . It’s worth deciding what your reviews are about, don’t spend too much time on it, but once you’ve decided what works for you, move on. If you think it comes from a place of your fear and you are taking advantage of yours, just say DELETE, DELETE, DELETE.
If you care about what others think, you are thinking about it … Wouldn’t it be better when you focus on yourself, on what you really want, on the positive aspects of your day, on every feedback you can get? grateful and in all the resources you have to go for what you really want today.
And if someone expresses what you think they are thinking, you can deal with it and be in a much more positive and resourceful state.
Be brave, be beautiful.
