Greetings ymib fam!
I remember reading and also believeing that there is no such thing as a right time to start or begin something to challenge Self ... There's just a NOW-time.
Hmmmm, now I'm not sure about that. Over the last few months, I've grown to observe that sometimes when I choose to go through with a planned event/situation that I wasn't feeling right about, something nearly always proves to me that I should have waited for the right time lol (re-booking, waiting longer etc)
My question to the queens out here are...
~~ Do you re-plan and re-schedule according to your instincts?
~~ How do your instincts tell you that it's the wrong time to do or go ahead with something? What does 'not right' feel to you?
~~ Could it be that by not feeling right about something, we are giving in to a Self fear of expanding (that might make us feel uncomfortable and which might feel like 'not right', out of our comfort zone)?
~~ Is there ever a really right or wrong time to choose an opportunity to grow? Or do you just flow/go ahead with it regardless?
Give thanks! ;o)
I trust my gut
I believe that there is definetely a "right" and a "wrong" time to do certain things. I also believe that once I make a decision to make a change, or involve myself in a new project, friendship, or event-- I stick to it, and see the situation through. That is how I live my life. I put a lot of thought into major events that are going to be life changing for me, before I make the commitment to go through with that change, event or situation.
I trust my instincts and make changes to my plans accordingly. I am flexible with myself because there are too many outside forces, influences, spirits, and people that can throw a wrench into things. If I don't feel good in my gut about something that I have committed myself to, I always shut up and listen to myself and try to figure out where the bad energy that is causing the misgivings is coming from. I also realize that it is human to feel self doubt. So, if my assement of myself leads me to believe that I am just feeling a bit of self doubt (fear in disguise) then I do what I do to roll through those feelings, shake em off, and keep going with the plan. If it is something else, then I make changes accordingly. I have come to live my life this way due to several negative experiences that I have had in my life, in which I did not follow my gut, and ended up in a bad situation.
