Alan Watts said most people walk around in constant opposition to themselves. It may seem like a bold statement, but try asking yourself - How have you been in opposition to yourself the past week? Was it that time you picked up your phone instead of having a break? When you held your tongue in a conversation? Or was it when you doubted yourself?  Because our awareness is moving outward, we tend to outsource for information and advice we should be seeking from within ourselves. But when you start to look inward you begin to shed the self-doubt and begin to align yourself with your potential.
