Ask

3/31/2016

 
Women are stereotyped as being very communal; however, we are often reticent to ask for help.  The reasons women don't ask are numerous: fear of no; not wanting to appear naive or weak; maintaining privacy; shame; feeling like I should be able to do this.

By not asking we cut ourselves off.  Asking for what we want expands us in many ways.
  • we permit ourselves to receive love and attention from others. 
  • in vulnerability, we give another a chance to grow closer to us and it increases the intimacy in our relationships.
  • you allow your wants, needs, and desires be heard.
  • you let yourself to be served.  There is humility in realizing you do not have to do everything yourself.
  • it is a pleasure to help another person. It creates a feeling of worthiness in the giver and receiver.

Exercise your ability to ask by asking someone to do something for you for the purpose of exercising your asking muscle.
