Are you AFRAID 😱 to tell your loved ones what you really want to do in life?
OR
Are you AFRAID 😱 that if you expressed or revealed your true desire, goal, mission, or purpose in life, you may be rejected or lose respect 😥 from the people most important to you?
🔹As a result of this Fear of Making Your Loved Ones Angry or Losing Their Respect, you hold back your true desires 😞 because in your perception expressing your true self may result in a backlash of rejection, more pain, more disadvantages than advantages and lack of respect from them.
Moving away from things most important to you, further builds frustration and resentment towards others and self.😡
Let me explain this through a story!!👇
A young Japanese 🇯🇵 guy was struggling in his business. Whatever profit he made, 60% of his income 💰was sent to his parents in Japan. He, his wife, and baby 👶 were living on almost nothing because he was too afraid to lose his parent’s respect if he did not hand over his income.
When his wife 👵insisted that it was not possible to survive this way, he asked Dr. John Demartini for advice.
Demartini helped him identify that he was caught ⛓️ up in the social norm or cultural idealism, rather than being true to himself about his current situation.
He advised him to have an open and clear discussion with his 👫🏻 parents and to his surprise his parents 👫🏻 were very understanding and instructed him not to send any money 💸 until he got himself on his feet.
This relieved him of the pressure of expectations, and he was able to focus on his business plan and achieve great success.🤑
🔸The moral of the story is not to sacrifice yourself or your 🌜dreams, for how your loved ones would perceive your actions, but to be 💯 true and authentic to yourself to pursue your purpose in life. ♥️
When we are true to ourselves, the people we love ❣️turn into who we want them to be.
If you wish or aspire to overcome this fear, please do get in touch with me.

Wishing you an Inspiring and fulfilling week ahead.
