We all would like to believe that we are in control of our lives, but without realizing it because of someone else’s negative comments, reactions or doubt in our abilities we can little by little lose our confidence and give away our power. The funny thing when it comes to romantic relationships we can without knowing it give away so much of our power that we begin to doubt ourselves which either slows down or stop our progress until we seem to have no power over our own life.
Only you can know what you’re capable of or what is right for you, and as much as someone might think they are being helpful and looking out for your best interest they can only give you advice based on their own experiences, fears, and doubts. When you don’t listen to your heart or your own instincts you are without realizing it giving away your power.
In a romantic relationship it’s great to have shared interest, but you should never lose your identity or sense of self. You have to remember that although you are two halves making up a whole you are still two very distinct individuals. The thing about giving away your power is that you can fall victim to all sorts of abuse until one day you wake up and so much has been said and done that you can’t remember who you are, and trying to make any uphill climb back to yourself can seems next to impossible because you have been striped of your confidence and forgotten your skills.
Being in relationship is a wonderful thing, but you should never allow it to stifle your creativity, imagination, or growth. You can be in love and still have a great relationship without being lost in love. You have to always remember who you are, what you can do, and what you are capable of doing, and never allow someone else’s doubts, fears, or criticisms to define you.
Do you have a hold on your power??
Love and blessings in divine order,
