Salmon and Proving Things to Ourselves How's That Sit?

    • Entrepreneurship

Proving something to ourselves serves a purpose... for a while. What happens AFTER you've proven something to yourself? How does our behavior and thinking need to change in order to support our growth and healing long-term. Today, I explore these ideas via salmon. $25 smoked salmon, to be precise, as an analogy for the growth you may find yourself in the middle of if you've grown tired, bored, apathetic, or disenchanted with business as usual, but find yourself still in that hamster wheel.



So you don't need to furiously take notes, here are the thinking/journaling prompts I provide mid-reading:


I’ve always wanted to be seen as/see myself as {what}. OR I’ve always wanted to know I can {what}.
I can’t imagine not doing {what}.
Without question, I find myself saying yes to {what actions or outcomes}.
Where do I keep one-upping myself?
Do I know what I really want and what is enough for me to be happy/satisfied/fulfilled?

I'd love to hear what your relationship is like to proving something about yourself right now. And if you'd like to drop the need to prove things (to yourself or others), check out https://www.jessicaeley.com/coaching or DM me on IG to talk about how I could support you.

Come tell me how that sits:
