My Own Company - new blog post sneak peak: • On my trip to the desert last weekend, I found myself in a moment of “okay, now what?” - just standing there, looking around at the people, and realizing for the first time, that I only knew a handful and wasn’t sure what to do with myself. • But that only lasted for a short moment, and once I got over the initial shock, I managed to just let go. Instead of trying desperately to “fit in” and find someone to be with - I just lay my bag down, spread out my sleeping mat, and just sat down. Once I got into that comfortable state of mind, where I’m okay with my own company, I managed to find “my place”. • The social aspect of this hike was great, but it wasn’t my main reason for going. It wasn’t a conscious decision or thought. It was as simple as talking to a friend, saying “hey, lets go stargazing in the desert”, and then just doing it. I didn’t give it much thought until I was actually out in the camping site surrounded by others, suddenly realizing, ‘oh right, I gotta socialize.’ • Or, do I? • Because as bad as it sounds, I didn’t really go to meet more people. I have enough friends, and I suck at keeping in touch as it is, so what's the real point? Don’t get me wrong, it was a great bonus, but while there, I suddenly realized - ‘hey, I’m also good in my own company’ - even when I’m surrounded by other people. • That thought would have never been my reality if I wasn’t single and learned to embrace and feel content with myself. For so many years I would cringe just at the thought of sitting somewhere on my own - especially if it was in a larger group. I know that many others feel that way too, and the key for overcoming it, is changing your state of mind. • *** for more - link in bio *** • • How about you?
