- How well do you really know yourself?
- How deeply have you explored past experiences to see how they've shaped you & your choices?
- What have you done to clear unresolved issues and relationships?
- What rituals do you have to expand your mind and develop new ways of thinking and behaving?
I remember when I first got divorced, I would literally start each day saying "I hate my fucking life" and count down the hours until a glass of red wine seemed reasonable. Yes, I had every right to be sad, miserable and angry - for awhile.
I know this might be challenging if you're not one to "toot your own horn" and, even more so, if you're in the midst of a divorce or breakup. Or, if you feel like you're the last single gal standing. Those experiences often make us feel flawed and unlovable. But that's a distorted reality because you're viewing yourself and your life through the haze of hurt, sadness, loneliness and/or shame. But those painful experiences don't define you. You define your own value through self-awareness, conscious choices, your sense of purpose and integrity. Never settle for less than what you deserve!
