Beauty and the Beast

In every situation we have the choice to proceed with one of two emotions- fear and it's accomplice doubt or love and its friend trust. The choice we make will either bring us to a place of peace ( beauty) or confusion ( the beast).

Many of us approach decisions with questions such as "what if I am not successful" or "is this the right choice for me"? These are questions that are learned from well meaning parents, teachers and life experiences that perpetuate the fear cycle - fear that we are not good enough, that we are not liked or that we are not successful.

But what if we turned things around and approached our most difficult decisions with love and trust. What if we told ourselves "I can do this", "I will land on my feet" or "whatever happens I will learn from this".

The choice we make will often depend on how we feel about ourselves and our worthiness to have good things happen. Hint: we are all worthy to receive the best things life has to offer! A daily affirmation to this effect can help change the tendency to doubt to one of trust.

"I love and trust myself and therfore I am worthy to receive all the best things life has to offer"

Which do you chose- Beauty or the Beast?
