The Elephant and the Rider

[@bharathu5354]

Ok I understanding everything that has just been said.. but my elephant has been nervous wreck all these years and it's been hiding behind a wall and I've been unknowingly scaring it with bad stories about what might happen now it just won't budge.

That is a very natural reaction. When you spook an elephant, it is hard to coax it back out and get it to do what you want it to do. The best way to become more comfortable with your elephant is to set up small and achievable goals that you can complete. Checking these tasks off will help build momentum and confidence to try bigger, harder, and more intimidating things. Confidence is built not possessed or given, so try and remember that you have to start from the ground to build to the sky.

So my fear of being out front alone, or being attacked is the elephant 🐘 my desire to be able to walk about is the rider & when I managed the letterbox, (done this several times in 2 weeks) then walked several steps along the path is the rider🧘 panic a bit 🐘, my counsellor's mental steps to calm down, walk again 🧘‍♀️ then panic, mental steps, walk not run back home. Freak out because I can't get the remote roller door down before Olivia cat escapes. Who won?
