Very timely read, thanks for the post. I am a master of being the outsider. It's a very secure position to be in, just strolling along without any responsibility, playing it safe and keeping the distance from any perceived opportunity to fail (and excel). I found that doubt for me is one of the biggest players in the creation and perpetuation of this state of being. This doubt is experienced like a shield of emotional energy covering the whole chest area and nothing gets through it. Only recently i became aware of it and now, like you, I am finding and undoing all the locks. Very cool to have started with this process, it's a daily commitment
