This year, regardless of their age and background, people usually came to me with confusion and anxiety about their paths in life. They all wanted to find a way out from their personal bottlenecks. They needed clarity about their career situation and direction about what to do next. More importantly, they needed clarity about their inner world, to be more authentic and equipped to deal with different kinds of challenges and achieve their aspirations.
The career issues are usually bundled with expectations of others, social norms and self expectation. When we go deeper, we understand that expectations of the self can have much more negative impact. People need to be kinder to themselves, and allow time for self-care! Only when we take good care of ourselves (mental, emotional and physical wellness), we are able to take care of others and achieve our aspirations in a sustainable manner.
If we care about ourselves, we will take good care of ourselves! Set self-care as an intention for 2019!
