#Security – 5-Honest with Others
If I want to have the security that comes with walking out my purpose, then I am going to have to be honest with the people that are around me.
1. I have to be honest about what I expect – from them and from the relationship or encounter. If I keep my expectations clear instead of EXPECTING them to just know then it will help me avoid too many negatives that need to be navigated.
2. I need to be honest about what I need – from them and for me. I have to express the things that I need to help me keep on keeping on – or sometimes just those things I need to keep from breaking down or giving in.
3. I have to be honest about what you expect – because your expectations and my expectations will not be the same and may end up clashing – but if I take the time to be honest about what I have heard or what I have understood then I help create security from the negatives.
4. I have to be honest about what you need – and whether or not I am in a position to meet that need or if I have to find other resources to get the need met.
5. I have to be honest about a need for a balance – and that sometimes a balance requires compromise and sometimes it requires adjustments but ALWAYS it requires honesty.
#GrowingHOPE understands I need to build better security if I am going to quit using the things that are holding me back to keep me safe. That security is a delusion. Better security gives me the tools to launch to my next level.
1. Building better security requires that I set limits – because without limits will overextend every single time.
2. Building better security means that I need a set budget – finances play a part in this world and the right budget helps prepare me for what might come up.
3. Building better security sometimes means saying no – I need to practice no to get good at it and comfortable with it.
4. Building better security requires that I am honest with myself – about where I am, about what I’m doing, and about what I’m not doing.
5. Building better security also requires being honest with others – about what is expected, about what is requires, and about what is reasonable.
