In the past I felt like I did make up my own mind, but I have learned that realistically I was so afraid of making the wrong choices that I culled opinions, listened to doctors/nurses and pled my case for public consensus before making a decision. I critically weighed all input, (seldom listening to my own heart) before making any major decision. In most cases I went with popular opinion or what the “biggest” expert recommended, and then grieved and doubted my decision. Each little choice kept me questioning myself and my own judgment wondering it I have done the right thing, and what will happen if I didn’t.
Not once did it occur to me that my real power comes only from listening to my own heart and my body.
I trust myself, I am perfectly willing to make mistakes and learn from the consequences associated with my decisions.
I am taking my power back, without permission!
