I asked my intuition what I needed to do to meet my man.
It raised an eyebrow at me quizzically, yes my intuition has eyebrows, it was feeling into whether or not I was ready to hear what it had to say. ‘Just tell me already!’ ‘OK, stop dating.’ WTF?? Seriously! My mission, handed to me as an indestructible message burned into my brain, was to only date guys I felt a genuine heart connection with. Which sucked! Because I never met guys like this unless they lived in a different country to me. (If alarms bells are going off for you on hearing this, you’d be right, I, however had no idea this was an issue, it was simply how things were.) My mission from my intuition might sound harsh, I mean how do you know if a heart connection even exists with someone until you've dated them for a while? Well...I've always known. Literally the second I'd meet a guy I intuitively knew if we had the potential to connect deeply or not. (This, btw, is something you can activate within you if it doesn’t come naturally yet.) But I'd chosen to override this insight for years, mainly because it was hugely inconvenient to my ego. If I’d not overridden my intuition I’d have had far less distractions from feeling not good enough, and my ego HATED me not feeling good enough. Sure, I felt this way often regardless, but the highs I got from dating inappropriate men were what I looked forward to, without the enticement of flattering attention, what the hell would I do? Become a lonely loser? When I stopped dating I allowed my fears of being not good enough to come up so I could heal them. Through this healing work I came to love that lonely loser, who no longer felt lonely or at all like a loser anymore. Nope. What had I been thinking, I was a catch! I continued to follow my heart and a year or so later I made a snap decision to leave London and return to NZ. Which is where I met my awesome partner, who I’m in a mind-blowingly beautiful relationship with. One way to get better at listening to your intuition and to reap the rewards from doing so, is to follow its advice when it sucks. When we only do the things we’re guided to that are comfortable for us, it’s like trying to get fit by having massages and avoiding working out. You’re getting part of it but you’re missing the major piece. Change takes courage so I’m going to ask a question to your courageous self. Is there something uncomfortable you’re being guided to do right now, and if so what difference to your life do you think it’d make if you followed it?
