ALWAYS MOVING FORWARD

Two steps forward and one step back.  It feels that way sometimes, but in reality, we are always moving forward.

The biggest issue with advancement is we judge our progress and our perceptions are not always accurate. At times, it certainly feels as though we are advancing, but at other times, we feel stagnated or held back with little to no progress.  At least this is our perception.

Every step of the way on our journey is a learning process.  Sometimes the lessons are challenging, sometimes less challenging. Nonetheless, the lessons are always valuable.

Perhaps we need a little adjustment or tweak to our thinking process? 

Our perception and attitude towards life greatly affects the journey.

We can get caught up in setting goals for large achievements and not receiving recognition from others. We can feel as though we have failed by not reaching the pinnacle of our goals. We ignore the progress that was actually made.

Give Yourself a Pat on the Back for Always Moving Forward!

One step at a time should be our timetable.  Focus on learning from the experience. Utilize the information gathered from these lessons. There is no such thing as failure. We are capable of switching that perception at any time. 

You are always moving forward. Change your attitude from disappointment to gratitude for all that has been learned and for all that is. Give yourself a pat on the back!

ENTHUSIASM OF A CHILD

In our early days, we live to experience and each moment in time is filled with enthusiasm.  We are wrapped in each and every experience without question, completely focused and content in the moment. Watch a children closely at how “in the moment” they live.

As we move into adolescence we are still very much wrapped up in the moment although now we look forward to milestones and make plans for our future. We are still quite enthusiastic about life, venturing forth with great vigor and eagerness. 

As we enter adulthood, we begin to enjoy our independence.  Some of us chose to begin our own families and become focused on our careers and new financial obligations.  If we have chose the family journey, we now have others to think about and support and begin preparing for what might occur in our future.  We become more focused on possibilities and live not only in the moment but also in the future. We need to keep checking our attitude.

By middle age, we reflect our life experiences in our personality not only because of those we have met and our life situations but also because of our attitude.  We have been preparing for our future saving money, paying off debt, gathering material abundance and experiencing.  Plan for the future but don’t lose your soul to it!

If we had a family, our children eventually enter their own stage of independence, and we can start to focus more on self.  It’s not that we care less but that we allow them to mature and grow.  It is important that we have time to enjoy the fruits of our labors, so we begin to explore more of what life offers on a personal level. 

Hopefully we are all blessed with what may be called the “evening” or “winter” of our lives.  We let go of our need to squirrel away money and learn to relax and focus more on the things that we enjoy in life.  There should be relief of some sort that retirement does not mean we are old and unable.  Quite the opposite for many of us.  We all carry forward, each one of us in different directions, some mastering techniques that we have been nurturing throughout life and others branching in new directions learning new things. 

This stage in life does not have to be an ending at all.  It feels more like a beginning and excitement is still there for those that allow.  Some may suffer from a belief that retirement means it’s all over, but most of us chose to do and experience whatever excites us.

Enthusiasm of a Child

Our lives are filled with experiences that foster in change at all stages. Who we were years ago is still a part of our consciousness, but we have changed dynamically and hopefully learned from each experience.  We are here to experience life to the fullest and enjoy what is in front of us. 

Life is magical and is perpetually changing. No matter what stage you are experiencing, remember to live and enjoy. Never lose the enthusiasm of a child living in the moment.  Every experience should excite you!

THE CONQUEST OF SELF

The Conquest of Self

Conquest or perhaps mastery might be a better definition of our focus today.

Our awakening can be a tedious process unlocking and facing hidden facets of ourselves.  Remember, however, no one is perfect!  The more we experience life, the most we can accept this.

Many of us spend too much time analyzing what is wrong with those around us and do not pay attention to what needs revamping within ourselves.

We must remain open and compassionate on how we view others.  We have not walked an inch in their shoes. 

In reviewing ourselves, we will find traits that are not pleasing to us or to those around us.  Why had we not seen these traits before?

How can we be blind to parts of ourselves?

The answers to these questions are not nearly as important as the importance of recognizing our true selves and seeking solutions to tweak, if necessary, what has been revealed. Today, we are not the same person as we were yesterday. Let go of the past and embrace the now. Be kind to yourself, and forgiving for that matter.

It is irrelevant what others think of us, but self-awareness is essential.

During these evolutionary periods, it will be important not only to take heed to our realizations but to act on them. What good is knowledge if not utilized?

Remember, however, to also take note of our pleasing attributes as they too must be recognized and celebrated.  Some things will need adjustments; other things are perfect the way they are. 

The conquest of self includes an honest and whole-hearted inner examination.  This will reveal what we need to know so we can move forward in gratitude and make changes where needed, no matter how difficult it may be. Commit to your evolution. Allow the real you to surface (as what we want is already a part of us). We would not be aware of these wishes or traits if they did not already exist.
