Jung expressed it well: “𝘜𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘭 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘶𝘯𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴, 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘢𝘵𝘦.” Adaptation is one of the key survival strategies we learn as we grow up. As children, we’re entirely dependent on our environment, shaped by a need to belong, to fit in, and to be “good enough” for the group. This adaptation becomes a natural defense mechanism. 𝘗𝘦𝘳𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘴 𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴, 𝘵𝘰 𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘪𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘫𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯. 𝐈𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. But now, as an adult ready to forge your own path, you experience this differently. Now, you’re more self-reliant, no longer dependent on the same validation.

The habit of blending in has become automatic, unconscious, and stands in the way of achieving your current goals, leading to frustration. When you don’t allow yourself to be seen, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘬. A meaningful question arises: 𝑯𝒐𝒘 𝒅𝒐 𝒘𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒖𝒏𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒄𝒊𝒐𝒖𝒔 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒔𝒄𝒊𝒐𝒖𝒔?
