Give yourself permission

And make it official with a signed permission slip.

Even if we’re not aware, sometimes the reason we haven’t done something isn’t money, bad luck, lack of connections, or outside circumstances. We simply haven’t given ourselves permission to do it.

There are lots of things people don’t give themselves permission to do:

• Sit comfortably and take up space (even when there’s plenty)

• Take care of their health through diet and exercise

• Go for opportunities they consider a stretch

• Give themselves some alone time

• Treat or celebrate themselves

• Ask for help

It seems ridiculous because everyone deserves permission to do these things (and more). And I guarantee every single person deprives themselves of permission for something.

To help, I’ve created permission slips you can print out and write out whatever you want to give yourself permission to do. Sometimes a “silly” little activity is what it takes to free ourselves. And there’s a magical power that comes with writing shit down.

So, what are you going to give yourself permission to do? If YOU don’t, you may never get it.
