What you allow is what will continue

What you allow is what will continue.

I want to keep today’s message short and succinct.

People are constantly looking for you to show them what their behavior needs to be around you.

We’re all wired to figure out the quickest, easiest way to get what we want.

So watch how they behave around you. Watch how you react.

What is your behaviour telling them?

We often take the ability to speak for granted. That we can do whatever we want as long as we say what we think sounds best. “Makes the most sense.” But words are not the most effective way of communication.

Because they’re not waiting to hear what you’ll say. They’re waiting to watch what you’ll do.

Confrontation does not require violence or force.

But it does require you to be honest with yourself.

What isn’t making you feel safe in this situation? What are you not comfortable with? What do you need?

Is this a space where those needs will ever be met? (If it’s not a yes, it’s a no. Don’t fuck with “maybe” energy.)

Be disciplined about how you treat yourself. Be disciplined about how you let them treat you.
