Take Your Own Advice!

I was supposed to be writing, but instead, I found myself playing therapist for a friend who was going through something tough. As she shared, my heart broke, and I couldn’t help it. I lost myself, forgetting I had my content of the day to write.

When I finally came back to my senses and hurried to start writing, my sister looked at me and said, “Somebody that needs therapy is giving therapy,” and we both burst out laughing.

But really, I was giving solid advice. I was helping her see things differently, and truth be told, I needed what I was saying to her. I deserved my own advice.

Have you ever given someone such profound advice and then realized your life would be so much better if you actually took that same advice?

Yes, I felt that.

Half of what I told her, I was indirectly telling myself, or maybe it was what I truly needed to hear.

Dearest reader, what do you think is the psychology behind this?

Anyways, here’s a gentle reminder to take your own advice, the same one you so freely and kindly give to others. Listen to yourself, think deeply, and act on it. Many times, the words we need most already live within us. Don’t you think so?
