Often, we go through our lives trying to prove something to someone. Frequently, this person isn't even in our lives anymore.
Think for a moment. In your daily actions, are you trying to do or not do something based on a previous interaction with someone else?
If your answer is yes, you're still trying to prove yourself to that person even if they are no longer a part of your life.
When this happens, you're stuck in the past and are still a prisoner of a previous relationship.
Awareness of your actions is the first step to changing this pattern of trying to prove yourself.
Remember, just because you do or do not take a specific action, you cannot control what someone else thinks about your actions. You can stop being a prisoner to their beliefs or thoughts simply by no longer trying to prove yourself to them.
After listening to Dr. Edith Eger discuss this, I considered where this is happening in my life. I noticed places where it still happens even though my life has changed. With this awareness, I have the choice to change my behavior or to continue it. I appreciate having the choice!
Will you choose to remain a prisoner to a previous relationship or person?
