What traits do you find in someone you look up to? 🤔
It’s something I’ve been pondering on a lot lately. Especially in regards to men I look up to. 🧙🏼♂️
I’ve really been trying to pin down certain traits that I really respect and aspire to, and one I’ve really honed in on lately is how someone responds to a situation that doesn’t go their way.. 😠
I’ve seen grown men (and humans in general) turn from cool charisma to a chafed child in seconds because they had their opinions challenged or a situation didn’t play out as they’d expected. 🤬
This includes me! 😂
I’ve noticed over the years I have a tendency to unrealistically over-fantasize about the possibilities of life, or just assume that people will understand my passionate tangential speeches 😄
(Pisces Sun, Mercury & Jupiter here ✌️🐠)
These traits have served me well, as it means I’m extremely creative and coupled with a natural talent for magic, it’s opened a lot of cool doors for me. ✨🚪
But the shadow side is that when things don’t go a certain way it kind of jolts me.. 🫥
Like walking onto an escalator in a shopping mall that isn’t actually moving.🎢 😅
I’ve noticed I really get irked around this behavior in others, especially men..
Funny how the things that bother us are usually what we ourselves need to work on 🫣
In the modern yoga/spiritual world we give so much focus to ‘manifesting what we want’ yet I don’t see as much ‘you’re not the only human in this world playing the game’. 🌍
(Plus if I’ve learned anything from years of practicing magic, is that there’s something mysterious we tend to tap into that often knows what’s better for you than you. ✨🧚🏻♀️🤫)
Yes, I do believe we have immense power to get what we want it life, but we’re also not the only one on the road, and cutting each other off in traffic and throwing a tantrum because you believe that you have more ‘right of way’ than others is only going to cause a jam, and none of us will be getting anywhere.. 😉
Anyways, that’s my thoughts this morning as I sip my morning coffee and walk around in circles under the sun 😄
Would love to hear anyone else’s thoughts on traits they really aspire to or find challenging ✨🙏
