Communication is the key to almost all aspects of our life. It is the way we talk to people and conduct our day-to-day affairs. Our success directly depends on how effective we are at it. There is a different kind of communication, which we use to speak and connect with ourselves called our ‘Inner voice’. In this post, we will learn about our ‘Inner voice’ and ‘Inner strength’.
‘Inner voice’ is the way
that we talk with ourselves, ask ourselves multiple questions while seeking a
situation. ‘Inner strength’ is our untapped capability, the limits of our
potential to see us out of a dangerous situation. It is bound to give good
results, each time when we use it effectively.
Everyone is blessed with
the above capabilities. It is just that some people know how to use it
effectively and others are yet to learn to use it, when they face situations
that demand them.
The situations that
prompt the usage of these capabilities are not very frequent. It is usually
when we are stuck at a crossroads or in difficult and dangerous situations in
life. A few examples of it are when we have to take important decisions, course
correction situations in life, when we are in critical situations.
The fundamental
principles that guide us in usage of these capabilities don’t change irrespective
of the situations we face. It is how we are as a person that determines the
usage and outcome of these capabilities.
When we are facing a
difficult situation, we don’t arrive at a solution directly. It happens after a
series of different phases. The different phases can vary from being
disinterested, anger, frustration, feeling victimized etc. It is situation
specific. These situations tend to be highly emotional. A few pointers below
will help get a clarity to cross through the rough patches:
• Figure out what you want and learn how to ask for it: We need to practice this when we are communicating with ourselves. It is important to not choose something just because it is the easiest way out.
• You’re tougher than you think you are right now: It is very critical to believing our self. Holding the fort until we find a solution is paramount. It is a shame that people lack this ability and in severe cases end their life.
• Not doing anything wrong is what will keep you afloat: Not
succumbing to external pressure during the different phases of facing the
situation is critical. Any wrong step due to any reason will only aggravate it
further.
These situations from the
beginning to the end will surely be difficult and test our potential to the
limits. We cannot escape facing them, however, the outcome in general will be
better, if we improve the ways to handle it. Our ‘Inner voice’ and ‘Inner
strength’ is truly an asset that we possess in countering these difficult
situations.
