165. It’s Ok to Trust Yourself (And The Process)
Manage episode 384638314 series 2882323
Who knows better than you what’s right for you?
Not trusting has a huge cost. It leads to self doubt, fear, anxiety, imposter syndrome, and comparing and despairing. It is “expensive”-- emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
We are trained in medicine to not trust. We are trained to trust and confirm, to be hypervigilant, and to ruminate and worry about unexpected outcomes and worst case scenarios -- many of which are outside of our control.
This is an exhausting way to move through the world.
Our lives are abundant with opportunities to trust. Once aware of our habits, we can choose where that trust can be given.
It’s possible to learn to that trust that our past choices were the best we could have done at the time with the information, skill, and expereince we had at the time.
Its possible to trust that our loved ones are doing the best they can from a place of good intention- even if it isn't up to our standards or they way we wish they would do things.
It's possible to trust our colleagues and our patients as well. Most of our patients are trustworthy. We can usually trust ourselves to discern the specific moments when we should be wary.
Trusting is not risky, dangerous, or stupid. It is loving. It is caring. Especially when it comes to trusting yourself.
Regret is optional and expensive. You almost always did the best you could with the information you had at that time.
If you want to grow trust and enjoy a life with more calm, contentment, and clarity, explore private mindful coaching with Jessie at www.jessiemahoneymd.com
