Very often we are confronted with enquiries, like ‘How are you doing?’ or ‘How are you feeling?’  Many times, our response is a well-rehearsed automatic one. And no, it’s not that we set out to deceive well-meaning family, friends or colleagues.

Perhaps we do not feel like talking at the time…

Perhaps we are rushed…

Perhaps we just cannot be bothered…..

Perhaps we prefer to appear courteous…….

Whatever the reason, at times we respond flippantly to those questions. 

However, when we do not correctly speak our truths, there can be no healing from what we are experiencing. When we fail to sincerely identify our state of mind, we rob ourselves of opportunities to learn and grow from it.

So, the next time you are asked ‘How are you doing?’ or ‘How are you feeling?’, resolve to respond from a place of sincerity.

You just might be surprised with the result.

If you can relate to this blog in any way, I’d love to hear from you.

Meanwhile, here’s to sincere sharing!
