What do you do to get validation or recognition?

Would you make the same choices if no one would ever admire, acknowledge, or appreciate you?

How much of what you do, do you do because you genuinely want to and it suits you? And how much because you want to prove something? That difference is not always easy to recognize. Especially not when you are successful and receive appreciation for what you do.

You can have the same career, the same ambition, and the same achievements. On the outside, no one sees the difference. But on the inside, there is a world of difference. One builds from a place of freedom. The other from a deep desire to finally be seen.

Ambition or need to prove oneself?

Your ambition and drive can contain an unhealthy need to prove yourself. You then go to the absolute limit to be seen, to receive recognition or validation, and you can start chasing things in your life from that need, rather than from who you are at your core.

For example, to gain recognition from your father or mother, in the hope that they will see you as you truly are.

Ask yourself:

  • Are you doing it because you want to prove something and need the outside world to validate your worth?
  • Or does it stem from who you truly are, what you really want to achieve, and what you have to offer?
Sometimes you are not chasing your dream, but validation. A male silhouette with a shadow in which you see his inner child who desperately wants to be seen and get recognition. That is the true driving force behind the success.

Due to recent astrological shifts, themes such as the right to exist, self-worth, self-expression, authenticity, and autonomy are being activated. What role do you play in the bigger picture and how do you fulfill that based on your own talents and qualities? At the same time, it may become apparent where you need the outside world to feel valuable.

Who or what determines your course?

That is where the real development lies, clearly distinguishing from which energy you want to achieve something and resolving unhealthy forms of a need to prove oneself. Because as long as you need validation, the outside world still determines a part of your course.

When you no longer have to perform to be seen, or to receive recognition or validation, you can start to realize what is truly fitting for you and your own life plan.

That is exactly what we during the Development Trajectory: Energetic Self-Management & Leadership working on. Bringing you back layer by layer to your own core, energy, and strength, causing you to accept and recognize yourself, so that you no longer have to seek this in the outside world.

Gain insight into how your energy system works, which laws and forces help shape your life, why certain (karmic) patterns keep recurring, and how you can use your power in a focused and conscious way to take control of your own life.

Healing: Free Yourself on a Deeper Level

With a healing you can free yourself from obstructive (behavioral) patterns, beliefs, and thoughts. It creates certain realizations in yourself, allowing you to look at situations with a different perspective and to see them differently. With this you clear the way for change. 

Marlene Stiekema: “I feel much more grounded in my own energy now. I want my team to feel that way, too.”
