Self-Discovery & Creative Pursuits: How Your Intuition Can Reveal Your Hidden Skills
Writing is the only thing in my business that I knew for a fact that I was good at when I started it. All the other things, graphic design, building websites, coaching, video editing, and so many other creations came to me as deep desires that I had no clue at all how to start or complete. It’s as if these assignments were dropped into my heart and made me so hopelessly obsessed that I couldn’t focus on anything until I completed the first steps that would lead to their births. My creative pursuits have been a self-discovery journey that's helped me understand my intuition.
I’ve come to realize that the process is always the same. Like magic, when I let myself follow my creative urges, further instructions, clarity, and even my own hidden gifts and skills appear to me out of nowhere.
I’m sharing this because I want you to know that we don’t know what we’re capable of until we do it. It just happens that we often never even get started because we think we’re incapable.This is where self-discovery kicks in.
What I wrote before is worth repeating: I’ve come to realize that the process is always the same. Like magic, when I let myself follow my creative urges, further instructions, clarity, and even my own hidden gifts and skills appear to me out of nowhere.
So, trust me when I say that if you want something, it means it’s possible for you. You just don’t know that you have the power to achieve the “impossible.” It’s my job to help you get there via your intuition. I’m breaking this self-discovery journey into 4 soul-centered steps.
- Start with the understanding that life isn’t cruel and the entire universe is on your side. You were given your passions and deep desires because your unique approach is needed to fill that particular space.
- To help deepen this change in perspective so that you’re no longer viewing your situation from a place of lack, use this anchoring affirmation to keep yourself focused and honor your intuition: My super soul self (or intuition) knows how to (insert your goal here) and I am happy and grateful for it.
- Meditate on that truth, affirm it daily, write it over and over—live it and breathe it. By tattooing your goal and an image of it coming into fruition into your subconscious mind, your intuition will be heightened and that’s where the magic will happen.
When you look at successful people, it isn’t always the most intelligent or talented that shine. It’s those who have the balls (Or audacity if you are classier than I am, whatever.) to bet on themselves.
That’s self-discovery step 4.
- Do something, anything that can count as the first few baby steps toward achieving your goal. Hell, your starting point might be a Google Search to get the first steps or some inspiration. That’s great! Just do it!
If you’re still feeling blocked after a couple of weeks of doing this self-discovery work, you might have some unconscious self-limiting beliefs and fears to overcome. There’s nothing to be ashamed of. I’ve been there more times than I can count and as a result, I’ve become a pro at getting unstuck so that I can truly shine and unapologetically live life on my own terms.
So, I put this knowledge into a go-at-your-own-pace virtual self-discovery course to help you silence your inner critic and limiting beliefs with self-compassion through various shadow work, inner child healing, and mindset-shifting techniques that accelerate spiritual growth and awaken your intuition.
