Validate Your Own Parking

In this world today (especially with the presence of social media) we’re constantly being asked to be noticed, to stand out and to prove ourselves so that we can appear or feel “special”. We create, write, post and share stuff “out there” - which leads us into a constant state of wanting or having to be validated by others.

This whole separation & specialness “dog & pony show” that we participate in... is the playground/battleground of the ego. And it’s a racket... that almost always ends in some kind of suffering.

Today on The Karen Kenney Show, we’re talking about getting stuck in the habit of looking to others (outside of ourselves) in order to know or believe how good of a person we are, how valuable our ideas/work/creativity/services/products are or and why we deserve to be loved.

What we need to understand is that sometimes we’re going to have people in our lives that don’t get us, don’t understand our mission or where it is that we’re coming from or going to.

People will sometimes resist your growth, your change, your pivot or your vision. They might even try to hold you back, get in your way or withhold their support and love.

And that’s exactly when you need to step up, grab the stamp & validate your own parking.
