Insecurity

What’s one of the biggest roadblocks to engaging trust with others?

But Here’s Why

Intuition Was Whispering, "Delete"
Intuition Was Whispering, "Delete"

So how was getting out of bed today? Any better than two days ago?

So, sure, I deleted that email, but here’s why. Every month, that Doctor sends a few emails, and they all sound the same, “Buy my stuff”. But when do these “salespeople” show us their authenticity? When do they show us they’re real, genuine – a person you would trust like a friend?

Um, let’s see, like never.

Sure, it would be easier to unsubscribe from his emails, but hey, when you’re really busy, it’s so much quicker to hit delete.

For an unknown reason on his latest email though, I actually read a good portion and it sounded good. But.

But the realization came that he has never painted an image of who he is in real life.

There has been no real life, in real time.

Is it wrong to want this? To expect it? To consider it a non-negotiable?

Does anyone else crave authenticity, or it just me?
