Lesson 193: Honoring Yourself No Matter What

We had to allow a mistake a happen without doing anything. To continue on with that exercise we are asked to complete the following two sentences:

  • One thing I can do right now to feel better about my mistake that honors me and my process is______
  • Some emotional weather that comes up when I consider "honoring myself" (after royally screwing up) is______

-----

My answers:

  • One thing I can do right now to feel better about my mistake that honors me and my process is to understand and know that mistakes do happen
  • Some emotional weather that comes up when I consider "honoring myself" (after royally screwing up) is to just let it go and honour the fact that no one is perfect.

I think it’s important that in this clearing course, that we kind of start out from the get go with mistakes. We build up this clutter of physical excess which can be some regretful purchases that has overstayed it’s welcome, or we have all this mental clutter, many of which are thoughts that also are regretful in nature – we don’t mean to have those thoughts but they continually cycle through.

I’m starting to see it’s all about acceptance. The awareness I’ve learned has really opened my eyes to how I can manage my life better. It’s okay that I’ve had this lifetime of clutter as long as I’m willing to let it go.
