One of the surest way to ascertain your own PROGRESS is by IDENTIFYING the DEGREE of your TRIGGERS.
A trigger is an external stimuli (person, place, situation) that ACTIVATES painful memories that are UNRESOLVED, UNHEALED & UNADDRESSED!
So when someone says something that REMINDS you of a past episode & it STIRS YOUR POT, know that your past wound is SCREECHING FOR YOUR ATTENTION!
Over a decade I have ONLY focused on MONITORING my own TRIGGERS & everytime I COMPARE it with the previous similar incident & I measure my level of RESILENCE & EVOLUTION!
At all times, one really needs to know their MEDICINE!
Reflect:-
– What is it that I could do & be in times I get triggered?
– Can I identify my core wound? Am I addressing it?
– What could I do to develop an intimate connect with my aching inner child?
– Can I practise SELF LOVE without expecting any vested outcome?
– Can I LOVE myself & provide myself with something I am deeply missing?? (Attention, love, support, listening ear, peace)
I wasted two decades WAITING for someone out there to come & fill my voids & heal me!
The time I lost, gave me valuable lessons for Life which is:-
IF ITS UP TO BE, ITS ON TO ME!!
Satnam!
