I have had a profound shift over the past ten days or so.
It's actually been really beautiful to witness and it's had such a simplicity to it. Not like an Aha! moment or some huge revelation, but I just woke up one day and realized the truth that I have been afraid of my power my whole life. And I'm not scared of that shit anymore. For most of my life, I have always known that there was something special about me. That God gave me certain gifts to speak to people's hearts, to encourage and inspire. But there was a big part of me that was afraid of my power and of these gifts because I felt unworthy or ashamed to live my life in confidence of who I am or what my purpose is. I was afraid that people wouldn't want to be around me if I stepped up to claim the power I was given. I was afraid I would push people away. So, I have always taken the back seat to other people's feelings. I have always put other people's goals and dreams ahead of my own, in hopes that if they saw how helpful I am, they wouldn't reject me. (Fear of abandonment is probably my #1 trigger.) I have lived my entire life out of alignment with my soul's purpose for the sake of the approval of others. And that is some bullshit right there. What I have learned is that whether or not I decide to embrace my power, it has zero affect on how people choose to react to me. Some people are going to reject me regardless of what I am doing. And it actually has nothing to do with me at all. I am not afraid of my power anymore. I am not afraid of shining my big, beautiful light. I am not afraid of who I was Divinely created to be. Because she is amazing. And brilliant. And holds otherworldly capacities to love. I don't want to waste any more time doubting myself and missing out on opportunities to add more love to this world. After a few months of seclusion, tons of self-reflection, meditation and self-love, I am done hiding. I am ready to do God's work in this magical world we live in. I am ready to step into my power fully, and I am not afraid of what will happen when I do. Because I am overwhelmingly loved and supported by the entire universe. --- It's important to note that: we are all the same. So, if this is true for me, then it is absolutely true for you. Stop doubting who you are and why you are here. Stop downplaying your gifts or being modest about what you're good at. The intricate tapestry of what makes you you is MAGIC, and was Divinely created. The sooner you embrace those things, the sooner the entire world will open up to you. I've figured out the magical keys to the universe. This is one of them. Sit with yourself long enough to find the things within your heart that are holding you back. Everything comes back to self-love. You can do it.

Having talent, but not being aware of it is common. Talent is really important, those who have talent can always make the best of life. If you ask me, talented people take their talent for granted, which really makes me furious. As a pretty mediocre person, I cannot help but envy those who have the talent but are still slacking off. I am happy that you are not afraid of your power anymore, please make the most of what you have.
