Trust your inner guidance
Everything you feel vibrates a silent message from the depths of your soul. The question is, how often do you listen? How often do you realize that the soul level vibration does not always jive with what you are thinking? The truth is you create all experience in your scope. What occurs as you empower self to be?
When people say, "I always knew it," that does not mean they are always conscious of sure-footedness or career-related purpose that they focus on now. Be aware of what draws you to particular activities and environments. You have unlimited opportunities to stretch physically and otherwise, to learn and also grow.
What other people do or do not do does not matter. What you do also does not matter. How you feel about what you do is what matters. A person feels joy doing anything and everything provided he is uninfluenced by judgment or approval. Reflect on when you trust inner guidance. What serves you?
