85 of #100daychallenge: confidence

@commodorestpaul đź‘ŚđźŹ˝âť¤ď¸Ź

Thinking more about what happens in fifteen days. I am thinking about other areas that I am struggling to be consistent about in my life.


Working out.

Preparing meals.

Sleep hygiene + schedule.

These actually all sound kind of boring, but they are very practical and will help me thrive and sustain. It’s a bit back-to-basics or conditioning to build a foundation.


I am currently at The Commodore in St. Paul, MN. I love this place! It feels good in here and the lounge area is the perfect setting to work do my 85 of #100daychallenge.


I really do not have much to say today. Other than, I am feeling pretty good about life. It’s as if I know that I will get things done and do the things that are near and dear to my heart. I feel like things are starting to fall into place or at least starting to align. I’m not so sure I’m into having things “fall into place.” I feel like everything is constantly in motion and I like it that way and I think what’s really happening when it feels like things are falling into place is that things are coming into alignment at the center of my awareness for a time.


I am able to discern different parts myself and my perceptions more and more.


There is something happening again and always really. It involves the fact that I really actually know my truths. However, it is my challenge to actually act on them. I’m still small and lacking some confidence.


I had a great conversation today about confidence


Sometimes I think confidence is a bit of a facade. We all have confidence. We all just don’t have the ability or the safety to express who we are more fully all the time.

I think confidence is about the game. It can be easy to hide behind. It’s like a defense mechanism in some ways. It has become a means of judgment. When we see someone who is lacking or disconnected from confidence in a particular moment, it is less their problem than it is an indication that others are not doing their part to give the kindness and love needed for that person to be who they are. Or, it is an indication for the individual to see the boundary they’ve created for themselves either consciously or subconsciously.

I don’t think that the key to life is confidence. I feel it is awareness.
