Cut out the Middleman, Cut out the Stress
Is the Middleman screwing up your journey?
It's not your fault. From a tender age, we're taught to mistrust our own sense of direction.
"Don't depend on what you feel," we're told. Feelings change; they're not rational, after all. Instead, "think straight!" and seek advice from someone Bigger, Older, Wiser. Teachers, parents, bosses, even peers are more trusted with your life than you. "For godsakes, never make important decisions based on emotions!"
But don't you change all the time, too? Wouldn't that make your emotions the best gauge for what's best, right now, in the present moment?
Can you learn to trust your feelings?
