What keys and lessons help you maintain peace and trust as you embrace personal change?
馃崁 I want to share four key attitudes. Both science and my own experience show they help us overcome the unconscious fear of change. As I mentioned in this podcast: “May life always find us open, flexible, determined, and stable.” This is the eternal dance of change that leads to true transformation.
What else does this dance need? How can we freely express who we are and follow the music?
馃弳 We must seek a sense of internal and external coherence. We also need to connect with others through our shared humanity and authenticity. Finding meaning opens us up. It connects us to our own peace, which supports everyone’s peace. This is true mental well-being.
馃А Think about how we disconnected from life as children. We wore masks and adopted behaviors out of fear. We feared not being loved or recognized. We must realize we were often praised for what we did, not for who we were…
… Once we see this, we can begin to embrace our solitude. We can leave behind addictions and other unconscious escape strategies. Gabor Mat茅 says: “Children do not get traumatized because they are hurt or feel pain. They get traumatized because they are alone with that pain. They feel alone, deeply alone.”
馃幆 Millions of people connect on LinkedIn as professionals. However, today I am writing this post for the inner child who walks with you every day.
馃З We all have an inner child. This child might be wounded, fearful, anxious, or afraid of failure. But look closer. This child also longs for adventure. They have the courage to fight against injustice. This comes from a deep love that fuels our desire to serve and love what we do.
馃挜 So, what is the problem? The ego-centered mind takes over. Its interpretations and defense mechanisms hijack this bright energy and intelligence.
When external pressure builds, pause for a moment. LISTEN TO YOUR HEART AND CARE FOR YOURSELF. Do not doubt it. Your heart knows your purpose and why you are here.
