“At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want.”– Lao-tzu
We don’t have to ask others’ advice or opinions on how to manage our lives, for we really do have the answers already. I once had a great teacher who was a gifted medium. Instead of asking Spirit my questions for me as I hoped she would, she insisted on helping me to find the answers myself. When I was agonizing over whether or not to end my first marriage, for example, I told her how desperate I was for guidance, and asked her what I should do. She very calmly smiled at me and said, “You already know the answer to that. The real question is, what will it take for you to honor your own truth?” As soon as she told me I had the answer, I realized that she was right. You know very well how to manage your own life, you just need to honor your own truths as much as you do the opinions of others.
