When I teach people about using their intuition to live a richer life, I often find that a person has no trouble receiving the messages from their inner guidance but they aren’t sure they can trust what they receive. Does this sound like you?
It’s easy to dismiss an intuitive ‘hit’ as coincidence. It’s easy to forget that you ‘had a feeling about that.’ But when you practice listening to your inner self and really looking for guidance within, you find that you CAN trust the signals you receive. Even those that feel ‘off the wall.’
What is it that you would like to ask your own intuition? If you came up with a question like, “Who will win the next election?” or “Will my team win the game?” then you might be working outside the sphere that we are talking about. But you might think about a situation in which you are uncertain which path to take or which option to choose. Very often this is why people come to me for coaching – they are struggling with a decision or confusion and they are having trouble seeing the road ahead for them.
As an Intuitive Coach I can share what I see about the path ahead for them but I also like to teach people to access their own inner wisdom no matter what I see. I ask, “Is this resonating with you?” because I want the person to practice checking inside for how this information feels when they take it in and try it on. It takes practice to learn to trust that you can take action on what you are feeling inside. This is why working with someone can help you to build confidence in your own ability to tap into the wisdom.
Each human being has been granted a strong intuitive skill but our education systems and often society itself move us into being good little factory workers and doing what we are told instead of learning to question and to trust what is going on inside us. As conscious beings we must learn to trust what we feel inside even if it contradicts something we are told outside of ourselves.
But let me add a caveat here. Many people have an inner voice that criticizes them or bullies them. This is NOT your Inner Wisdom. These voices that are not positive and uplifting and supportive are not coming from a higher place within you. Lift your awareness above this voice to find the higher vibration voice of Inner Wisdom. This voice will never make you feel small or lesser than or criticized. The voice of your Inner Wisdom speaks in a very matter-of-fact manner and supports your growth in awareness and consciousness. Learn to discern and then you can trust that inner voice.
Practice following your gut this week. Notice how you feel when you do that. Notice how you feel when you do not. Have an intuitive week!

MUSE-INGS: Conscious Confidence for the Present Moment
February 29, 2012 — RosemaryConfidence can be such a difficult quality to develop. I can be confident in my ability to create a delicious dinner and yet lack the confidence required to get up on a horse and ride a trail. You might be confident in a one-on-one conversation and yet lack the confidence to feel comfortable speaking in front of 1,000-member audience. So what is the confidence we are feeling or not feeling?
When ‘confidence’ is really just an assurance that we are committed to living our Life Purpose in this lifetime on this Planet Earth, then we can relax and our only work is this commitment. Whew! That takes the heat off of us, doesn’t it? I mean, what if I know I am being the person I was born to BE, even if I’m not the best or most accomplished or most experienced at something I am trying to DO? Isn’t that the consciousness that we need to develop? Isn’t that how we can learn to feel confident?
I learned a long time ago that showing up to the present moment is the most important aspect of feeling confident. Even if I feel nervous or tentative about attempting something, I can gain confidence from the knowledge that I am doing the best I can and I can trust that everything will work out as it should. This comes from trusting in the unfolding plan of the Universe.
Trust is the key word here. Do you trust that the Universe has a plan that is unfolding as it should? Do you trust that you have a part in that plan and that your intuition is your connection to it? Have you learned to trust your intuition?
Each of us has a role to play in the story of the Earth as it is developing around us. The people around us are all players in the same story, whether we or they know it or not. Your soul agreed with mine before we were born that we would ‘play’ in this sandbox called Earth at the same time in some way. I trust that this agreement holds and that I am doing my best to fulfill my part. I commit to living the Life Purpose my soul told yours I would live before we started this time on Earth. By raising my own consciousness I’ve become aware of the greater plan and it’s unfolding on Earth in these days.
Are you working to expand your awareness of the great development called Human Evolution? This is about the evolution of consciousness, not about growing beyond tails and webbed feet! Personal growth work becomes the avenue to expanded consciousness and, thus, a commitment to your own personal growth benefits all of humanity.
And confidence comes from knowing that this grand scheme of ever-evolving consciousness includes you and who you are becoming at each step of the way. Trust that you are okay, that you are doing the best you can. Trust that your own intuition and inner guidance are leading you in the path of conscious evolution. Be confident in sharing who you are, right now, in this moment, with others, for that is the soul agreement that you entered into with them before birth. They and you agreed that you would be just that, the ‘who’ you came here to be, and that that was just enough for them in this moment.
Congratulations! Go confidently into your next moments!
