I hear it often, I don’t fit in. I feel different. I don’t feel comfortable. When you feel like this, the tendency is to withdraw and stay within your comfort zone and let life pass you by.
As a person who has spent many an hour alone in favor of going to places I don’t feel comfortable, here are a few things to ponder on today about fitting in.
When you think you’ve heard all the quotes you can, another one comes along just at the right time. “If you’reworryingabout what if’s, you’re probably missing out on the what is”
If you’re sitting on the fence with a few decisions that need to be made, here’s a questionnaire you can use to help make your choices from a well-rounded perspective on things. First, I suggest you get really clear on what you’re trying to decide, what do you want to re-commit to? Or what would you like to improve, change or maybe leave? We have three choices at any given time: We can accept things the way they are, we can change things, or we can leave them. Then go to a quiet place where you won’t be disturbed for about an hour and ask yourself the following questions. Answer them honestly and clearly.
Asking questions is sometimes the best way to move forward. And asking them out loud is much better than letting them sit and fester in your mind. Just finding the question, acknowledging the question and putting the question out there is a huge step forward, because it allows you space to wait for the answer to come back. The trouble is we spend a lot of time avoiding questions because we fear what the answer might entail. It involves thinking and that is scary huh?
