Connect with your heart

Connections

The main connection, that leads to all connections - YOU

We humans are hardwired for connections. 

The basis of all our connections is our relationship with our own self. How we connect with ourselves, how we see ourselves is exactly how we connect with the world and how we form our relationships. 

Understanding our relationship with ourselves often requires a review of our self-talk. 

How is your inner dialogue, which relationship does it resemble the most

  1. A loving parent 

  2. A critical parent 

  3. A kind friend 

  4. A loving child

  5. A lover 

How is your relationship with yourself? 

Do you treat yourself better than you would treat your best friend, would you treat yourself better or worse than that?  

  • When you make a mistake

  • When you don’t reach a goal

  • When you procrastinate

Do you beat yourself down or do you lift yourself up? 

If you feel like you are not aware of your inner dialogue, a great place to start is to journal in the morning. 

Julia Cameroon, in the artist's way, calls them the morning pages. It's basically free writing everything that comes to your mind first thing in the morning, before you can barely open your eyes or even write. Just putting everything on the page without judgement, maybe it will make you laugh?Maybe you would realise that nobody talks to me like that, not even me.

You might realise a lost dream, you might come up with a new dream, you might have an aha moment about a situation or a person. 

Guess what, it’s so totally worth it to get to know the most important person in your life more, YOU!

The first step to any connection is to get to know the one who connects with the outside world first. Yes, that’s you!
