The most common form of betrayal is self-betrayal.
No one can betray you if you’re asking the right questions:
Is this the best I can do?
Does this situation feel right to me?
Do my actions represent my values?
Am I taking responsibility for my role in this?
Have I spoken my truth or honored my boundary?
Would I be proud of this if everyone knew what I was doing?
If your answer is “no” to those (or similar) questions,
There’s a possibility that you could be betraying yourself.
Which means it’s time to start making different choices.

In Travel Light, Principle 2 of Spiritual Minimalism (page 47) opens with the following quote: “Not following your heart is a form of self-betrayal—which means whatever comes after that is on you.” And I go on to tell a story from my personal experience with betrayal.
