This second prompt! I do this a lot. Spend a week and so much energy with a decision, big or small, that my first instinct is usually the outcome after all that effort. BUT, sometimes that time and thinking (although it brings me to the same outcome) allows me to be rooted and sure. I know the alts are not viable and I can move forward with confidence.

It’s such a delicate balance, time and thinking is needed but then an excess of that + soliciting input from others, either consciously or unconsciously can just be counter productive!

Love this realization & activity! Something I’ve sat with when looking through old photos of high school me who felt so much more confident and self assured!

yes, same here and that surprised me! but it makes sense, we had less inputs coming at us from all angles (mainly ONLINE)
