Please don't DIM the LIGHTS....

A genuine sense of happiness and joy... enthusiasm that emanates... confidence in one’s unique expression...
a natural glow... the shine of their inner light...

Do you want to be like that???
Friends - you are already like that!!!


We all have that inner light...  

Within each of us is the capacity to be fully alive... to be infinitely creative... to radiate openness, availability, and love... to look forward with great interest to whatever the next moment brings.

BUT Knowingly or unknowingly - we enact strategies and defenses that leave us hanging back in the shadows rather shining. We lose our way and forget who we are.

We DIM the LIGHTS in our own LIVES.
 
Do you want your light to shine? Check below to find out - If YOU are the one who is DIMMING the lights in YOUR life...

1- People Pleasing
 

Do you always seek approval from others?? You don’t feel worthy on your own merits – always conform to others’ expectations instead. You are always in wrong jobs and relationships - with wrong people??

Stand in your own truth. Fess up to what you want, and risk the disapproval of those around you. Keep it simple, and stay close to what fires you up. You may not please everyone, but the possibilities for your life will open up once you decide to align yourself with the truth.

2- Victim Mentality

Blaming yourself for all?? you are denying clarity and groundedness. While you are stuck in a grudge or waiting for others to change, you passively let the moments of our lives tick away. “Poor me” just doesn’t cut it if you want to shine.

Instead of torturing yourself with endless stories of what should or shouldn’t have happened, use your most precious resource - your attention, to explore places inside you that you have been avoiding. Make the decision to take responsibility for your well being.

3- Self-Criticism
 

Maybe you have convinced yourself that you are not good enough. Too much self-judgment keeps us boxed in and limited. Every time our inner light tries to glow, our minds react like a sledgehammer, with harsh thoughts that inhibit us from moving forward.

Learn to identify the fear, then look beneath it to discover your natural resilience, every time. Find the courage to let your whole self shine.

4- Neediness


Do you live in a state of lack. Do you think you need what you don’t have – a relationship, a quality, a life circumstance. This is an “if only” life, and it ignores the treasures that you already have.

Stop buying into stories that run in your mind, is there anything missing? You already have what you deserve - Value it!! and Enjoy it!!! and Apply it as much as you can...

Remember - your inner light is shining. 

Open the curtains - let your whole self light up the world.
What is holding you back? What is happening in your life when you let your light shine?

Dont DIM the LIGHTS in your LIFE!!! 
Let the LIGHTS GLOW FULL ON :)
