Trust Yourself

Trust Yourself

Imagine what it would be like to trust yourself without second-guessing yourself. In this episode, we discuss the importance of trusting yourself. Without trust in ourselves, the quality of our thoughts and emotions are completely outside of our control.

  • Zen’s style of action is to enter everything wholeheartedly without having to keep an eye on itself. This is what it is to have trust.
  • There is great value in believing in yourself. If you cannot trust yourself, you cannot really trust anyone.
  • Trusting yourself is not necessarily for the faint of heart. Those courageous enough to do so create a very fulfilling and meaningful life because they become sincere in their expression rather than living in a delusion of performance trying to appease everyone around them.
  •  It can be difficult and feel foggy at times. Remember to just breathe and listen to what you’re feeling in the moment. 
  • When you have emotions come up, ask them what they’re trying to tell you. Trying to get rid of them is an expression of distrust towards yourself and removes your sense of autonomy.
  •  Remember if you’re going to say yes to an opportunity. Make sure you’re saying yes to yourself first.
