Does Now Define Your Valor? The Choice Is Yours
Discover How to Take Control of Every Moment and Shape Your True Strength Through Conscious Decisions
“This is who you are!”
“This is who you should be!”
These are the unspoken words you often feel from others. They’re not always expressed directly. The message comes through gestures, attitudes, or tone of voice.
It’s how someone who sees themselves as an authority tries to dictate who you should be. In reality, it’s just an unspoken form of aggression.
Even for adults, defining one’s identity is a challenge. We have countless facets — many possibilities, thoughts, and contradictions constantly shifting and evolving.
Sometimes, you recognize parts of yourself in the projection someone else imposes on you. It can make you feel like you’re on their turf as if they hold the power and can do as they please.
But… who says that space belongs to them? In truth, it’s your turf too. And how you respond is entirely your choice.
The choice is yours in how you react, how you feel, and what story you tell yourself. Just like the person in front of you, you have the right to choose your response. The choice is yours!
