This is beautiful Tyler. This made me think of the nervous system. I’ve been slowly healing my nervous system with a trauma therapist. And what I learned is your inner voice is underneath that trauma response or body response. In short the nervous system is made up of neurons and transmitters, and 80% of the neurons take information from the body to the brain, and 20% take information from the brain to the body, via the vagus nerve. So bottom line: the ancient wisdom of the body will always trump our thoughts. So it’s very important to create safety in your body and in your environment (if possible) to give yourself a chance to trust that voice and become clearer. I’ve never been so clear since I’ve done this work ✨it’s so magical. 💗💗💗🫶🏼
Second, I’m trying to listen. I’m starting to hear. That voice got drowned out for so long by the voices that tried to protect me from more trauma. It has been a long procress for me to begin to feel safe enough to hear my inner voice.
Please keep reminding us to listen so that, maybe one day, we can be legend, too.
My biggest problem is, and always has been, is questioning what I'm hearing is that of my actual inner voice, or just just me telling myself what I want to hear.
Listen to that deep down know in your soul and gut voice. Yes!!!!
I believe we all have it. I know for a fact we do.
Being a traumatic brain injury survivor; at times I think I put myself down for weaknesses that I have without even knowing I'm doing so. WE WERE BORN TO LIVE this life and to listen to that voice inside us. I think sometimes we may not even understand the reason or believe we could do this or that,whatever "it" may be but living fully is something I think each and everyone of us deserve.💜🤍 Those doubts and fears want to creep up randomly, but follow your heart, live with intention, be bold.
It took three listens to digest everything you said today. I concluded that I am committing the biggest sin in your eyes: the voice has been whispering a truth to me for years, but I do not act on it. Yes, I agree with you, that I am not capable of being truly happy if I continue to ignore it but to act upon it would so painfully disrupt the lives of so many I love that it would more painful for me to not act than to act. This is clear to me- so I am at peace with this decision as I move forward. The voice whispers many other things and I am always listening, trying to live by it in other ways, looking for other opportunities for ‘legendary-ness’.
I feel myself stepping into this, more and more. I used to be so worried about what other people thought of my life path. I can feel that I exist for greatness -- like you say, not in some grandiose Hollywood way but just in creating a life that lights my soul up, one that is abundant in joy and love. I have always felt drawn to the path less travelled and in the past, I would say away from it because I was worried about the judgement. Sometimes it still gets to me, especially when it's regarding the opinions of loved ones (harder to brush off than opinions of strangers) but I no longer minimize my goals and use negative and small language when describing what I want. I can see that people either think I'm crazy or that it simply will not pan out but the Calling to follow my dreams is getting harder to ignore. The voice is getting louder and more adamant. So who cares if people say "that will never work" or "why would you do it that way?" Who cares if they think I am crazy?? Maybe they are right. But what you said about being willing to cross that line into insanity in order to create your legendary life..... I feel like that was the good version of the final straw for me, if that makes sense; the one last push to say, heck I do not care if they think I'm crazy or if I actually am crazy, as long as I am embracing who I am and living the life that I want!
In case anyone really wants to learn how to distinguish the mind chatter from the higher Self, this is what I do for a living. The distinction is learning what's the voice of the ego and what's the voice of our intuition, then learning how to use the former as an emissary source of discernment and the latter as the master of wisdom.
Thank you, Tyler, for your insights and sharing this important topic in this space! 💗

You are already legend to so many of us 🙏❤️
First, you are legend.

Yes, but whether we choose to listen....
