Who is going to save you?
One client asked me how long it will take her to be completely happy once she meets her true love.
I looked at her with loving eyes.
She, like many of us, grew up with Cinderella story in our head. When Prince Charming shows up, when the princess will allow me to kiss her – I’ll be saved.
This is not about love alone.
“When I’ll be rich, I’ll be happy.”
“When I’ll get this job, I’ll be serene.”
“When I’ll move from this house, my problems with my family will be gone.”
“When I’ll have kids, I’ll have the perfect family.”
“When I’ll finish this project, I’ll be free.”
“Nobody is going to save you,
you have to be your own superhero!”
On and on, we program our brains and rewind a future story about “that day” our life will be perfect. But the core truth is that no people, places, or things can make the shift in your life.
It’s a constant inner work, which might be a bit difficult at first, and part of your life after. Yes, you can read a self-help book, read quotes on Instagram and participate in a weekend retreat.
But the inner work is to do the smallest daily actions which will bring the superhero out of you.
This is an actual change.
I can promise you from two decades of working with superheroes – no bs, no sugar coating. Real work. So when the lover, the home, the job, and the family present themselves- you are ready with the cape on!
