What is Your Truth?

What is Your Truth?

I want to share this article my friend Beth Buelow wrote

because as conscious individuals we are always looking for what

is true, what is real, especially for ourselves.  And moving from what

the world values, thinks, decides to what we, ourselves know to be right, real,

and true for ourselves is one giant step toward maturity!

I have a little Fairy sign that says:

” Be Yourself, Everyone else is Already Taken”

Enjoy Beth’s article!

What is Your Truth?

This is a question that comes up frequently during coaching sessions with my

clients. As we navigate through a situation or sticking point, the bottom-line

question is often “what’s true?” We get so caught up in stories about how things

“should” be or are “supposed” to work, that we lose touch with our core truth.

We spend lots of time listening to others and looking outside ourselves

for the answer to our challenges.

A certain amount of that is normal and even necessary (I call it research!).

Ultimately, however, once the information is gathered, it’s combined with what

you already know without asking anyone else, and the choice – the truth – is

yours alone. No one else can find our truth for us.

It’s ours to discover and claim.

One of the most profound things we can do for ourselves is to

acknowledge and stand in our truth. I imagine the truth as our

lighthouse, calling us into shore when it’s foggy, the seas are rough

or we’re ready to go home. And yet, there’s something even more basic

than knowing your truth about your values and choices. Your truth grows

out of what you believe about yourself and your inherent worth, and what

you know is true about your Purpose with a capital “P.”

I recently met Tshombe Brown, who calls himself a “magnetic entrepreneur.”

He said something simple and amazing that will stay with me forever:

“The truth will set you free. And the truth that sets me free is that

I’m Tshombe and you’re not!”

Ha! Love it! He is always secure in his truth because he is secure in

himself. He knows that he has gifts that only he can give – it doesn’t

matter if what he’s sharing has been shared a million times before –

no one else can say, write or think it like he can. Secure in that

knowledge, he is FREE to express and live his truth.

He is free to be the best Tshombe he possibly can be!

What’s my truth? In addition to “I’m Beth and you’re not!”?

It’s a question that I ask everyday. Words of truth that bubble up

are love, intention, grace… grounded in those values, I can make

choices based on what’s right for me, instead of what someone

else tells me I “should” be doing.

What is the truth you want to claim for yourself?

What will standing in that truth free up for you?

The truth isn’t “out there.” It’s in you! Are you ready for it?

Intentionally & Truthfully Yours

Beth shared this Dr. Seuss Quote:

My purpose is to be the greatest expression of myself.

I gratefully acknowledge and value my gifts, knowing

that the more I use them, the more they will grow.

“Today you are you. That is truer than true.

There is no one alive who is youer than you.”

~Dr. Seuss
