Awareness Creates THE Opening
Have you ever caught yourself wondering if you’re being too much of something?Like… too positive, too emotional, too quiet, or even too loud?
That is a pattern I have to be careful with.
People would say things like, “You’re so positive, Karla,” and sometimes I could feel the little undertone of annoyance in it.
Then on days when I wasn’t as positive, I’d get told, “You’re being negative.”And my brain would spiral “Okay… so which one am I supposed to be today?”
It’s funny, right?
How fast we can turn our natural way of being into something we think needs to be "fixed."
When I started learning NLP, I realized something simple but super powerful!
AWARENESS IS KEY.
Because the moment I catch myself thinking, “Am I being too this or too that?” That’s my cue.
That’s the moment I can start reframing myself.
Now I ask myself, “What if this quality just needs a different context?”
What if the thing I’m judging is actually a strength — just showing up in the wrong setting?
That shift in language changes everything.
It's helped me through so many parts of life… even through child labor (but that’s a story for another post).
When you learn to reframe your language, you stop battling who YOU are.
You start understanding yourself instead
And that awareness opens the door for confidence, calm, and real connection.
🪞Try this out...
What’s one thing you’ve labeled as too much or not enough about yourself?
How could you reframe that today into something that serves you instead?
