The True Cost of Safety
Soul Empowerment Episode # 26
What do you think about when you hear the word “safety”? Do you think about hard hats and steel capped boots, masks and protective clothing or something else? Or does it have a different meaning for you?
Check out the recording as we discuss this issue from a variety of perspectives.
What is Safety?
Your safety, do you feel safe from emotional and physical harm, from the thoughts in your own head, the nagging doubts that stop you from fulfilling long held ambitions. Where do they come from and whose responsibility is it to keep you safe whilst fully living your life in this ever changing and at times challenging world?
What is Freedom?
What do you perceive freedom to mean? The right to live your life, to travel as you choose, to share your thoughts openly, to socialize and meet with like-minded people? Do you feel free to live your life, to experience the things that call to you? Do you feel free or are there things both internally and externally that hold you back? What fears are lurking in the back of your mind that stop you from feeling free and where did they come from?
What is Choice?
For many, having the freedom to choose is fundamental to a free life, to having free will. What influences your choices? Who influences your choices? Each of us can only make a choice with the information we have at the time and sometimes it can feel like we have “no choice” and on other occasions too many choices. But we have the freedom to make a choice rather than being told what to do, where to go, what to believe. Not making a choice is still a choice.
What is the Cost of Safety?
Safety can have a cost and that cost can be that we listen to the doubts of ourselves and or others and we forego what we might otherwise have chosen to do. Have you ever thought, “I would love to do that” and before you have even completed that thought, the doubts kick in? There is “being cautious” and then there is “being over cautious”! Is your overactive imagination causing you to miss out on life?
How Do We Let Things Affect Us?
Each one of us is unique, and we all go through our own different life experiences to get us where we are now. As we proceed, some of us “react”, others “step back and think”, others walk away, and yet others may confront a situation full on with the hope of understanding and clearing the air. Some will take everything to heart, believing it is their fault, others will become judgmental and yet others will be open to the fact that there may be something deeper at work here and stay out of judgment.
Safety, freedom and choice are all interconnected in our lives. Please watch the recording of our live conversation and feel free to comment—we would love to hear from you.
