Happy sticking to my nature

August 12, 2018 by Brooks Palmer 5 Comments

I’m a pretty private person. I always have been. I used to think I ought to be more outgoing. I remember being nine, and it was the day before I started third grade. I practiced saying the things I imagined outgoing and social people would say. “Hey, how’s it going?” “Groovy.” “Cool.” But then I started third grade and I didn’t say any of those things. I stayed generally quiet.

I don’t feel quiet. My inner world is filled with insights and ideas. I get enthralled with things like the sun and trees and movies, or the way a person pauses, or thinks, or does their job. I like the feeling of a room. I love watching words come together to make a sentence. I just finished up a drawing that sums up my experience.

It seems like peace of mind for me comes in sticking to my nature. I figure I can’t go wrong following my natural impulses. I feel that way about others too. I might admire their nature, but I don’t feel like I need to be like them.

    Hi Brooks,

    I enjoyed what you shared. I wish I could have grasped this concept – at a much younger age – like back when I was in school. I spent many years trying to figure out “how to be” instead of just appreciating myself for who I am.

      Hi Diane, I think it takes being alive for a while to discover this.

Praise

Brooks Palmer was a speaker at my Chicago YES! to Success seminar event. When we got the participant surveys back at the end of the weekend, he was a clear favorite. Everyone loved his unique angles on the far-reaching benefits of de-cluttering our lives and his practical tips on how to get the job done with the least amount of effort and stress! He was also a complete pleasure to work with. I whole-heartedly recommend Brooks as a speaker for your next event.
