How the Seven of Wands is Relevant to Me
Self doubt has always been something I struggle with. It has also been at the root of why I have struggled to follow through with so many things in my life. I have an opportunity to change that now. Over the coming weeks and months, I am going to be making some decisions, both financially and personally that some people may disagree with. Some people will tell me this quite openly, some will make passive aggressive comments (these are the worst), and some will just discuss it behind my back. My negative thoughts will try to take over but if I feel them I going to tell myself to come back and re visit this post. The reality is (and I try to tell myself this all the time) other people do not care that much about you. They are living their own lives and if what you are doing doesn’t directly impact them, they don’t give a shit.
I have never felt so strongly that I am making the right decisions. This morning I got my nose re pierced, something I have been procrastinating about for years. I have a tattoo that I have been meaning to get covered and re done. That is next on my list and whilst I am there, I will be discussing getting a few more.
My whole outlook on life has definitely changed. I intend to make the most of it.
