Changing yourself is changing the world, one individual at a time.
With challenge, there is a significant amount of growth happening to form the foundation of one’s legacy. We must be able to take action upon ourselves as an individual, which will allow us to take action for the difference we are making within thus world. Situations in life that bring out our strongest and weakest aspects or traits, is what allows for us to grow with evolution through change. When we fail as an individual, or even publicly to others it pushes us to reevaluate ourselves in the way we perceive things. Taking on the demon of worrying about society’s opinion or how it projects upon yourself. Beating the demon of what others may think, say or do is freeing you to a new light. One that illuminates through you, possessing you to fulfill your deepest desired dreams. Putting the past where it belongs behind you, the present with you, and the future right in front of you. We are all able to face our weakest points with our strongest and overcome what we once saw as impossible. People will judge you through what they know about you, trying to take away what’s great about you and throw stones at you. But don’t indulge in throwing the stones right back at them, collect their stones and build your empire. The goal is to grow oh so strong on the inside so that nothing on the outside can affect your inner wellness without your consciousness’s permission. Healing doesn’t mean that the damage doesn’t exist or never did, it means it no longer controls you. Life is too short to start a war with ourselves for anyone. Focus on the lessons you learn throughout your life, as it will allow for you to constantly grow. Serving yourself as one who isn’t a people pleaser is to keep your standards high, push yourself to heal, and avoid distractions. Living is to either Evolve or Remain, you are being presented with a choice; whether it is to Evolve or Remain the same. If you choose to remain the same unchanged, you will be presented with the same challenges, same routine, same storms, and same situations. Until you learn from them and how to say no more; Until you choose challenge and change. If you choose to Evolve you will connect with the strength within you, you will be open to exploring what lies outside your Comfort Zone, you’ll be awakened to love and be able to be the person you’ve been destined for.
How can we transform negativity into positivity?
Transforming negativity into positivity all starts with love and loving ourselves first. I know it may be a given or seem cliche but if you only offer yourself pennies as your worth, it becomes incredibly easy to own your heart. But instead, you start by giving yourself love in the amount of the account of stars. You will quickly realize you were deserving of the sky, you were always worth the entire universe, you just had to give it to yourself first. Living with intention will transform you, it is very simple most people don't lead their life you see, they accept it. When you accept your life, you are living upon things that are no longer worthy of you, or your time and effort. Everything worthwhile is uphill, to go uphill you must be intentional. Nobody has ever gone uphill by accident, you’ve never read a book by accidental achievement. We must be intentional with what we do, who we are, and what we say. Start by showing up for yourself, by being there for yourself as you wish someone could have or has been. Start by changing your hate and disbeliefs, as a great man once said “Non-violence means avoiding not only external physical violence. But also internal violence of the spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man but to hate him.” - Martin Luther King. We must project an optimistic point of view, such as Martin Luther King States “Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.” By reevaluating the areas in our life where negativity tries to possess, we can accomplish changing ourselves and promote changing thus world.
Never regret a day in your life as good days give us happiness, bad days give us experience, the worst days give us lessons and the best days give us memories. The past is where you learn the lesson and the present is where you apply what you learned and the future is where we will see your personal growth results.
Reflecting upon ourselves allows for us to be aware of all the areas that may need some change. The secret of happiness through change is to stop fighting the old but to focus on building the new, using the old as stepping stone or a foundation for the person you’re truly meant to be. Having courage doesn’t mean to not be afraid, it means to never let fear stop you. Focusing on what is right in front of you will allow you to take the time to consider your truest self within means of thus world. One must never let the sadness of our past or fear of our future ruin the happiness of our present moment. Just as no amount of guilt can change the past, no amount anxiety can change the future. Every season serves its own purpose, as your current situation isn’t your final destination.
Measuring Self-Evolution by how we see others.
Mind, Thought, Reality, and Emotions.
Throughout one’s mind, there are many aspects that lead us to feeling.
Starting with how our mind affects the amount we feel. Our cognitive thinking is what translates our emotional state and nerves from the body into a thought process. Which has a strong relation with reality and presents the process for measuring one’s self-evolution. Measuring our growth is a process but not by using a tool. The process breaks down into three categories such as our Brain, Heart, and Nerves (Our gut feeling). We want to begin by measuring our process within each of these categories. Within the brain there is cognitive thinking, which is taking a look at your sense of time and sense of self and how they are developing. The more universal your senses become of self and time, the further along you are within self-evolution. Our sense of self evolves over time and as we age, such as being young our sense of time isn’t as adequate as when we begin to get older and have a perception of time itself. Our sense of self goes from self, to family, to community, to tribe, to nation, growing into humanity, and forms around the earth. Where we see ourselves as an individual a part of the entire ecosystem’s collective. Having a sense of self, and how to measure it you must know that it implodes on you when you realize you are everything, everything is you, and or nothing. It acts as an Ego-Death upon thyself, and you become universal. Diving into the emotional state of things, we must measure our emotion’s fluidity. This means we can recognize our feelings that arise in a non-reactionary kind of way.
Feeling a universe full of emotions positive and negative is being universal. Allowing ourselves to feel is allowing our hearts to open up. Having emotions may not always be positive as we know, but putting resistance towards feeling our emotions such as not riding a wave fully out makes things more difficult and prolonged. Learning to go with the flow of life often flows into our emotions, and it is within one’s self to manage and maneuver all the way seeing whatever it may be through. Measuring self-growth through our nervous system is all about your capacity to enjoy pleasure. What exactly is enjoying pleasure though? Well, it is the awareness of energy moving within your body, without resistance. If we feel safe it most likely means we have pleasure for being alive. The pleasure of the present moment in time is what will allow one’s self to grow continuously throughout the self-evolution process. We must research and reflect upon our personal experiences, by assessing them, asking questions, and absorbing all that has been useful. Once you find what is useful you can cultivate it, refine it, and modify it if need be. Allowing us to turn our personal experiences into growth benefiting our well-being and overall persona. We begin to absorb all that feels right and useful to learn from, we must also reject all that is useless. Which deals with refusing to accept or letting go of something that's not useful to you or even having an adverse effect upon you. It can be Mental or Physical, but regardless of what state you’re dealing with, it is all within yourself to discover.
Sharing our Experience is Growing throughout the Challenges we face.
When we share our personal experiences with others and listen to another’s experience, we often see ourselves within others and can simply become us. Having a sense of connection and belonging is One of life’s most pleasurable and important aspects to forming healthy relationships with others. Deep and meaningful relationships provide a sense of belonging to something way bigger than just our species, it provides a safe place to vent, and a space of freedom to be ourselves. These relationships may be with your family, co-workers, friends, or even a random stranger, often centered around a shared experience or bond.
Wait, but don’t we need validation?
Sometimes in life, we feel as if no one relates to or understands what we are going through. However, when we share our personal experiences with others, we realize we aren’t actually alone. Connecting with others, especially when they understand our difficulties or struggles, it makes us feel heard and validated. At the same time, putting ourselves in someone else’s shoes and showing them empathy toward their situation is important. Just as it is important to treat others how you would like to be treated. In doing so, we get outside our comfort zone and continue the cycle of sharing, empathizing, and connecting. When we share our stories with others, we learn and grow.
Have you ever had something challenging such as something at work popping up, a project at school, even within a particular phase or situation in your childhood?
No matter the challenges faced, I’m sure we all faced the challenge with other people by our side. You’ll likely remember the trust amongst eachother and all your shared understandings. You might also remember seeing how others handled the challenge, whether it was different from how you handled it, you probably learned a thing or two from those you were surrounded by at the time of your challenge. These types of shared experiences are opportunities that open the door of trust, and as a result; relationships grow and strengthen. If we can strengthen relationships through shared experiences, we can build a better community, a better place for all of us. In thus expeditious and interconnected world, the act of sharing experiences has taken on a new dimension of significance.
Whether it's through personal affairs, professional insights, or even artistic expressions, the act of sharing experiences delegates as a powerful tool tending to our understanding, empathy, and growth.
One of the primary benefits of sharing our experiences with others is what gives us the ability to build bridges towards the understanding between individuals from all different backgrounds, cultures, and ways of life. When we open up about our personal experiences, we create opportunities for our empathetic nature and connection. A story shared can humanize convoluted issues or situations, which is what allows people to see beyond such stereotypes and biased opinions. This exchange of personal narratives can lead to greater endurance, reduced prejudice, and improvement beyond our diverse cultural relations. Sharing our experiences is not only beneficial for social connections but also for our personal growth and resilience. When we share our challenges, failures, and successes, we provide an heirloom of insight that can inspire and motivate others. Furthermore, reflecting on our own experiences while sharing them can lead into a deeper understanding of our journey, helping us identify patterns, strengths, and areas for improvement. At its core, sharing experiences nurtures our empathic nature and compassion by allowing us to step into the shoes of another. While we are listening to another person’s story, we often engage through our emotional state and our brain with cognitive thinking, expanding our worldview and understanding. This process humanizes convoluted issues and encourages a more empathetic response.
