Hello Everyone & Welcome Back to the RealPositiveGirl Podcast!
Thank you so much for joining me again!
Happy Monday!
This week's theme for the podcast is: Own Who You Are
This week I want to give you some personal truths & beliefs to live by. These episodes will also help you realize that taking responsibility for everything in your life will make you stronger, not weaker.
It's easy to blame someone else for how we are feeling, why we are doing certain things & what has happened to us in the past, but that type of behavior will not help us succeed or move forward in life. That is taking the easy way out.
Here are some notes from today's episode:
- This week we are going to talk about owning everything we are all about.
- It can be so easy to stick blame on someone else for how we are feeling, why we are doing certain things & what has happened to us in the past, but that type of behavior will not help us succeed or move forward in life. That is taking the easy way out. It’s also unfair to those you are blaming.
- Today specifically I want to chat about owning your own personal emotions.
- A lot of times we will blame (and you may not even realize you are blaming someone else) someone else for how we are feeling because of something they said or did or inferred to us. But that’s actually not true, because despite how someone else treats you, you are always responsible for your own emotions.
- It takes a lot of responsibility to own your own feelings, but it’s the right & necessary thing to do. By doing so, it will help you better manage how you are feeling & eventually why you are feeling the way you are.
- Blaming someone else can make it easier to justify how you choose to feel, but again, this is just you playing yourself as the victim & that you have nothing to do with the reason you are suffering.
- The best thing about owning your feelings is being able to be in control of those feelings. By trying to pass off the blame onto others, you are conceding control of how you feel, which is not something anyone actually wants.
- In addition to owning how you are feeling, it’s important to own your emotions in general. And by this I mean that you should accept how you are feeling, even if you know it’s irrational at the moment, rather than suppress it.
- Suppressed feelings are not something that goes away over time, but still burning underneath the surface, waiting for the next opportunity to come out, but only bigger & better the longer it is hidden.
- There is no reason to pretend you are not feeling what you’re feeling, as this will just cause more pain later. I like to imagine it as sweeping emotions under the rug & continually building a volcano sized amount of feelings to explode later.
- Regardless of how irrational something feels in the moment, it’s a true insight to how you feel about whatever it is & that needs to be recognized. And, like I say often, generally those feelings are only surface level & the real issue is buried below.
- Bottom Line: Stop blaming others for how you choose to feel about something & stop trying to bury your feelings because you don’t want to deal with what comes with understanding what those things mean.
