If You're Always Asking for Advice... This One's For You.

We get it. It’s tempting to ask the people closest to us (and sometimes strangers on the internet) what we should do… for every single decision we have to make. But is this really what’s best for us?


On this week’s episode, we’re discussing the drawbacks of outsourcing our power to other people. Why do we trust everyone else on the planet more than we trust ourselves? How can we learn to listen to our own intuition, sort through advice from other people, and take actions that move us towards the life we desire?


The truth is that other people are only able to tell you how they see it. Their perspective is clouded by their own life experiences and circumstances, and those oftentimes don’t align with our own. 


If you’re looking to stop wasting time asking other people for advice and are ready to start taking action moving towards the one you desire, press play. Our perspective may be just the thing you need to get started.


Takeaways:

  • The societal norm encourages seeking validation from others.
  • Listening to oneself is often overlooked in favor of external advice.
  • The cost of ignoring self-trust can be significant.
  • Quiet reflection is necessary to hear our inner voice.
  • Pleasing everyone is impossible and can lead to dissatisfaction.
  • Trusting ourselves can enhance our relationships with others.
  • Self-trust is a lifelong journey that can start at any moment.
