There are still so many of us who think that they have to have a good education in order to have a successful career, that their body has to look certain way to attract the right partner, that they have to behave certain way in order to belong... Unfortunately, so many things that we are taught, things that we hear from others or read on social media are not helpful and I would even go so far as to say that many of them are damaging to our self-esteem and authenticity.
We do not need to pretend and become somebody else to be liked, respected, to have success and definitely not to feel happy and whole.
All that you need in order to be truly happy is to be you, the real you, without the facades, barriers and walls that you have created to feel safe, to please others, to belong or to feel loved and appreciated.
It doesn’t mean that we can just sit and do nothing. After years of behaving, thinking and feeling certain way, in order to change, a lot of work will need to be put into observing oneself so as to notice which parts work in our favour and which ones are limiting. It is in the constant process of self-observation and changing all the thoughts, feelings and behaviours that don’t serve us and replacing limiting beliefs with empowering ones that we become closer and closer to who we really are.
Our life depends on us and we create it all the time with our thoughts, feelings, decisions and behaviours. We do not need anybody else in order to change. Sure, there are some amazing people who are here to guide, but that’s all. They are not going to do the work for you. If somebody tells you that they will do everything for you, that you will be a changed person without lifting a finger and afterwards you can go back to business as usual, I am afraid they are not honest with you. It is you who needs to make a decision to change, it is you who needs to put the willingness and effort into the whole process and it is you who needs to decide to persevere no matter what.
There is something really freeing in knowing that it is up to us, that we do not have to rely on others and that absolutely everything that we will ever need is already in us.
Anybody can become any character they want, anybody can have and do anything they desire, however when we are here in this life to grow and evolve, there will be a point when we will want more than just material things, when we will realise that it is all really about peeling away the layers that we have built and discovering the real treasure underneath – our true, authentic selves: pure love.
Sooner or later all of us who truly want to change and become the most authentic version of ourselves will recognise that it has never really been about riches, career, looking younger, more buff, finding a partner or overcoming a health problem, but simply about being whole, being the love that we already are and feeling love for ourselves, for others and for Source. The more work we do, the deeper the knowing will be that we are not separate beings, but that all of us are one. The more we persevere and believe in ourselves, the stronger our connection with Source, with nature and with everyone else will be. The more time we spend going within, the more the veil will be lifted from our eyes and we will start seeing things that have always been there but seemed to be hidden from us. Our senses will be sharper, we will feel everything more deeply hence it will be even more important to carefully select what we open ourselves to, what we listen to, what we watch on tv, who we spend time with and so on. That doesn’t mean building even more protecting layers and living like a hermit. It means listening to our heart, saying no when we do not feel comfortable or safe and trusting our instincts. It means doing more things that we love, that make us happy, that increase our frequency and have a positive impact on our energy. It means being true to ourselves, to who we really are, to love, loving ourselves, our lives and seeing love in everybody else.
The goal is not perfection as nobody is perfect as a human being. We are here to enjoy ourselves, to experience and to become closer to the love that is our Truth.
Find joy in everything you do, see love in everyone you meet, notice the beauty in everything, be true to yourself and treat yourself with love, kindness and respect that you deserve and watch your life change for the better 💜
