The 4 Important Lessons You Learn When You Spend Time Alone
It’s time to learn about yourself
Spending time alone is no longer something we cherish. We fear it. We live in a world where there are constant distractions, where we’re never just alone. Through television, social media, and instant messaging we’ve silenced our own thoughts.
Being left alone with our own thoughts is a scary idea. When we are without distraction we can finally listen to our deepest thoughts, the ones buried in our subconscious. The first ones to come up are usually our darkest or most limiting thoughts. The ones that go..
“Nobody likes me”
“I’m not good enough. I’m not worthy.”
“Why do I fail at everything.”
The moment these thoughts pop up, we go back to our distractions. We are terrified to look at these thoughts head on. But we miss out on the healing and growth that comes from facing those thoughts and making it to the other side.
There are Always Personal Demons to Face
We cloak ourselves with distractions and toxic positivity to convince ourselves that we are fine. But the truth is that there is always something to face. Spending time alone is how we can finally hear those demons.
