A LESSON IN PERSONAL POWER
"Mickie," the caller I referenced in the previous blog, has been confronted with an obstacle in her relationship. How she has handled it is a testement to her self-esteem, peace of mind and most important the confidence to know that she CAN have what she wants. In spite of this challenge to her conviction, she did not let herself get thrown off track. Clearly, this is a demonstration that it is never what happens that causes us upset, but what we tell ourselves about it. Mickie's self-talk is constructive, empowering and most of all healthy. Her reaction is an inspirational example from which we can all beneift .
Here's what happened: Her Significant Other, a man she has been seeing for about a year in an enjoyable, compatible, close and flourishing relationship suddenly got cold feet. They had not been fighting. There was no scary talk about the future (the standard trigger for male panic). All was well, when he dropped the bomb that he was "depressed " but with no specific understanding about what. He claimed to have lost interest in relating to ANYBODY, and that included her. While he admitted he cared for her, he also indicated he wanted some distance.
Was she happy about this? Absolutely not. However, she stayed in the logical part of her mind instead of plunging like a missle into the emotional part, a place we women are all too familiar with. She informed me the "old her' would have pleaded, tried to convince,coax and cling, feeling devastated,helpless and hopeless without him. Instead, she told him she understood, fully accepted what he was feeling, but in no way applied pressure or became needy and clingy None of that. She stayed in her power despite her shock and disappointment.....
She is now open to dating others, and toward that end has put up a profile on Match. This isn't what she prefers to do, but she is demonstrating the "goddess' mentality that we all need to embrace. Rather than sit at home pining, waiting and wondering what's going on with him, she is inviting in new male energy in order to keep her spirits us and her sense of female power at it's best. At the very least this will keep her confidence level high and reinforce her belief in herself about what she's worth. She is demonstrating complete confidence that the universe provides. She knows with total certainty that either this man will get his head together or the universe will bounce him out so that the man who is right for her can come in. She is focusing on her own happiness FIRST. As a result she is not depressed, suffering or anxiety ridden. she is grounded in complete faith that her Highest Good is being meted out, inspite of the external circumstances. This ladies, is where we all need to be. The goddess is the woman who gets what she wants.......
So ask yourself, are you in your "Goddess mentality"?
If you are currently struggling or need support in this area, be assured that you, just like Mickie, can transend male shenanigans and maintain joy and serenity. If you'd like to discuss this further, I'd be happy to send you some free minutes to do so. If you'd like to communicate with Mickie, just leave her a message here because she will be checking this blog. We Keen Sisters have to stick together as we grow and learn..
Blessings to you all............
