Note: To get 2019 off on the right foot, we're going to end 2018 and begin the new year with a four-part series on how to make what I call "pro-you choices". These are choices that are all about taking care of yourself. This is Part 2 of 4. You can find all four parts in the Pro-You Choices Series.
I find that "I don't know!" is one of the hardest phrases to say.
When I say it, it is easy for me to feel disempowered, incompetent, and less than.
In a recent interview, actor and director John Krasinski talked about how the most powerful thing you can say is that you don't know.
It is an interesting idea. When we are able to acknowledge that we don't fully understand what we are supposed to do or how to do it, we are actually putting ourselves in a place of power. Our honesty means we can make the best possible choice, without fooling others or ourselves.
This week I have a tap-along audio (with printable script below the player) that will help you to be comfortable with not knowing.
