There is a voice inside of you
That whispers all day long,
"I feel this is right for me,
I know that this is wrong."
No teacher, preacher, parent, friend
Or wise man can decide
What's right for you--just listen to
The voice that speaks inside.”
― Shel Silverstein
“Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice."
― Steve Jobs
Here are some tips to start tapping into your inner voice:
1. Listen!
Start listening to yourself, and to the signs the universe is displaying all around you.
2. Live in the present moment
The past is in the past, and the future hasn’t come yet. Just focus on now, how are you feeling right now. Once you are able to live more in the present moment without worrying about the future and the past, you will be able to listen more closely!
3. Be mindful
Stop rushing through life. Everything you do should be done mindfully. This goes along with being present; you cannot do something mindfully, if you are not present.
4. Meditate
Just sit for a few minutes each day with yourself, with no distractions. Start to see what comes up in your mind, try to quiet your mind, and then see what comes up again. Meditation is a great way to really get to know your true self
5. Be confident
Start to embrace who you truly are, your true inner self, and be confident in that person! That person is beautiful, smart, and powerful. Believe it!
start tapping into your inner voice, listening to what is inside. You will really start to figure out what your true passions are. When you know what they are, then use your logic and reasoning to figure out how to get there, and how to let you create the life of your dreams.
