The ‘Courage to Trust Our Self’ means having faith in our intuitive mind and not taking notice of our rational minds. Our rational minds are programmed with ‘ought to’s’ — ‘should do’s’ and ‘should not do’s’ which are programmed into us through our conditioning and hence the views of society in general.
One conflict many of us have inherited through our conditioning is the need to feel we are doing something versus our intuitive feeling that perhaps it is time to take a break from ‘doing’ in order to reflect upon what it is that we are actually DOING in order to give us the time to consider WHY we are doing it and if WHAT WE ARE DOING IS STILL APPROPRIATE OR WHETHER IT IS TIME FOR US TO CHANGE DIRECTION.
