Standing Alone

Strength of numbers is the
delight of the mind.
The Valiant in spirit glory in
fighting alone.
Ghandi
Did you ever notice that when you decide on doing something, whether it be changing jobs or following your dreams and you begin to discuss your ideas with family, co-workers and friends, that you will inevitably need to defend your ideas and most likely end up arguing in defense of your thoughts? Why? Because when we put those ideas out there, two things happen. First, behind those ideas is our ego intent on bragging to others in order to validate the thoughts and intent. Remember that intent from ego is taking the wrong direction. Intent from heart is the true and right direction.
Second, no matter how strong you feel about your idea, the fact is that when others finish telling you how “out there” your idea is or give you logical reasons as to why it’s never going to work, all that negativity will kill your idea and result in it never coming to fruition.
As in the quote above, the Valiant is one who stands alone in his or her ideas. Your ideas from the heart grow and our born into fruition by your not needing any validations but rather taking that first step on your own with a clear understanding and knowing that this idea which comes from your heart is your destiny.
Here are a few suggestions:
1. You do not need endorsements from others. Endorsements come from ego. Your heart needs to be the ruler.
2. You don’t need to announce your ideas. They come from your spirit therefore they need no introduction or applause.
3. Creation is derived from the unseen into the seen. It is born within your spirit and created as a result of that birth by you.















I also experience this, and feel like I need other people’s approval or something..Their negativity finally lead me into silence..
Vicky - That happens all the time. I’ve learned the hard way. Thanks for reading and commenting.
icy - That’s what happens and you have to realize you don’t need any approval at all. Thanks Icy.
