Within my community, I’ve been very fortunate to have positive support during each new phase in my life. The old adage continues to ring true: when choosing your community, choose wisely.
It was easy for me to believe in myself, when a handful of friends immediately told me I could reach my goals. There is a common denominator for those who have been strong supporters of my decision. They believe in themselves because they have reached many of their goals, and so they know how to mentally or verbally cheer me on to reach mine.
There is an art to being supportive. It starts with trusting in yourself. You might say “knowing thyself”. Ego. Intuition. I am starting to better understand why buddhism is a popular philosophy – if you “see or visualize” it, and believe in it, that “thing” will happen. (disclaimer- that’s the extent to which I know buddhism so I’m pretty sure I am missing something much deeper than what I am explaining here!)
What can we do, our Covert community, to better support you?
