What to Do When Those You Love Don’t ‘Get You’ – Vol. 497, May 9, 2019
Someone asked this question on Quora recently, and frankly, I wish I had the time to answer it since I have been feeling similarly regarding some of my family members. You see, sometimes values and beliefs just do not mesh with those who say they love you, and even for those who believe they understand you. One knows this is true when comments like “You really need to rethink what you are doing.” Or when they speak to you because they have their own fears blocking them from doing those things that you find second nature.
An example from my own life is the need to finally move on to doing group trainings. It is the only way to leverage my time and increase the value that I can offer to those who could use my specialized knowledge and skill set. Well, these family members do not really understand why it is that I am doing this at this time, because of my financial resources (or lack thereof). And yet, nothing will change, if I don’t change what I am doing. So, like most entrepreneurial types, I move with my inner knowing and do the best I can to make the best from the actions that are taken.
Now, there are certainly risk involved and anybody who has tried to build any sort of practice or business is well aware of the fact because the needs of people change, as well as the delivery methods. Thankfully the delivery methods have gotten much easier since I jumped into the ring in 2002. However, if one is unwilling to do what one knows they need to do to move ahead in life because others are fearful, that is a great problem.
Well, things are a lot different this time around because I have a team to help me to put it all together. That is a great benefit. And besides, one cannot be stymied by others fear. We have but one life to live and it is our job to use it up, not let it use us up with conjured up “What if” scenarios, of which 80% never come true, 10% of which one can do something about and the other 10% that nothing can be done. It is our jobs as human beings to create services and products that are helpful to others. It is our job to positively influence as many people as we can and to that end, it is worth whatever it takes to make that a reality.
So, respect your inner calling and do what you feel is correct, so long as you have the backing necessary to make it happen. Send love and light to those who love you and leave it at that, as they will never be able to understand your soul and your mission, and that is okay. They don’t need to. Only you need to understand why you are doing what you are with the contacts and symbiotic partners you have on board to help you make the biggest and most valuable impact you can on this planet earth while you are here.
