The capacity to include your own judgement in a choice, act on what you know without demanding perfect certainty, and revise when new information arrives.
Self-trust & agency is the capacity to let your own perception, values and judgement participate meaningfully in what you do.
Self-trust is not the belief that you will always be right. Agency is not total control. Both become more practical when you can choose, observe what happens and revise without treating revision as proof that the original choice was a failure.
This capacity includes authentic choice and, in a different context, receiving success: allowing something wanted to arrive without immediately handing authority back to an imagined judge.
The glossary entries on Self-trust, Agency and Choice clarify the language. When Kindness Becomes a Disappearance asks what happens when care for others stops including your own reality.
That’s Not Me develops self-trust through role recognition and self-definition; I Want It All brings it into desire and expansion.
