Your Mindset Shapes Your Reality

Yesterday I had an epiphany, I wanted to dig deeper into why I had this hovering fear. I came into the conclusion that underneath it all, there was this fear that “I am not enough”. 

I strongly believe that we, underneath the outer material appearances, long to fulfill this question “am I worth it?” As human beings, we long for this existential peace which we think we can attain by:

1. Doing more, because then people will see I’m worth it

2. Earning more, because then we can buy the things that will show that we are worth it

3. Rebelling to the point of being on the brink of being hated by many- this is also a method in which we can portray our worth to others, by trying REALLY hard to be different, and essentially not being who we really are.

I can go on to list how we manifest our reality with our mindsets. We must be aware that there are mindsets that will lead us to emptiness. Here are a few:

1. The spirit of poverty and a mindset that there is scarcity in the world– this leads us to compete with others, even in the mind. As we compare ourselves to those that are more successful, we are believing in the lie that we are NOT ENOUGH.

2. The belief that we are really all the same and that we must conform in order to win– this is also fatal as usually the unique stand out in the market, not the conformists.

Perhaps we can replace our negative mindsets with:

1. I am destined for a unique destiny

2. I am loved and fated to change history

3. I am a world shaker

4. My life is my responsibility, I should only focus on my life and what my destiny calls me to do, versus trying to figure out what other people are doing and imitating it. There’s only one of you, so make sure you are not trying to be someone else.

The Secrets To A Happy Life: Being Still

I have been watching many documentaries and my daily practice includes yoga and pilates. I have discovered that there is a rhythm to life.

The rhythm of life includes seasons.

Seasons can be split even into weeks. It is not just fall, summer, spring and winter, it is a season of working and a season of letting go. 

In our American society, we often think of working hard until our time to retire. 

I believe the contrary, I believe that in order to live a long life of health and happiness, we must learn to surrender to the rhythm of life and observe the seasons that require us to throw our hands back and listen to stillness.

This season requires us to trust that everything will work out, that there is a higher wisdom which we do not understand now, but will eventually. 

Our unrelenting striving can cause physical illness, mental anxiety, anxiety attacks, unstable hormones, emotional breakdowns, temperamental issues, and others. 

That is why, it is ESSENTIAL to allow ourselves to be still, to do nothing, to breath deeply, to listen and observe, and soak in wisdom about our situations….and lastly to trust. I often try to figure things out with my thoughts, I research relentlessly, searching, striving.

Reacting. But reacting is not the our best creativity, our best service to the world, reacting is a left over remnant of our energy.

If we desire to be the best that we can be, we must give ourselves the best gift of letting go, sitting still, being still. 

 

And perhaps, after an hour or two of continuously being still, we can give the best of ourselves to the world. Perhaps in those few hours, we attain more energy, more wisdom, more creativity, more ideas and revelations than we could EVER WORK for in 20-30 hours, weeks, months of work.

Why We Need To Protect The Dreams Our Youth Have

 

Growing up, I always considered myself unique and different.

My mother nurtured the creative gift in me and brought my brother and I to sketch at museums. We were well-cultured, attending classical concerts and also learning the gift of independent-thinking. I knew I was different and even more so when I moved to different countries where I didn’t know the language and had to learn to “be cool”.

One thing I am extremely grateful for was the MENTORS in my life that nurtured the WEIRD in me. They believed in me and thought my crazy dreams were special and needed to be protected. Of course, sometimes mentors don’t stay mentors forever and seasons in life brings them to stop believing in you or to be busy with their personal lives, these are all understandable situations.

I started working when I was just 14. Now, not many people were selling makeup at school, but I learned to find a way to make my own money. Fast forward, I am living my dreams with bamboos and orchids on my desk, typing away this blog post on my Mac. Has it been easy? Nope.

Sacrifice IS a must for entrepreneurs. 

If we teach our youth that they have to sacrifice their dreams for security, what are we really doing?

We are destroying their hearts.

Not every youth has a strong heart and is able to protect their dreams from their parents, peers, friends. Especially if the overriding message is  – “BE SECURE AND STABLE”.

Pursuing your DREAMS is not a secure and stable path. 

The sacrifices might include…..over the years of being self-employed, the beginning consisted of:

1. Sacrificing going out with friends and instead forcing myself to eat at home, and at times even being hungry

2. Using second best office supplies, sometimes found at yard sales

3. Bearing the judgements and rebukes of family and friends alike, even people you thought you trusted.

And the list goes on….Though…

The Benefits:

1. Creating exactly and however you want your dream life and career to look like

2. Creating your life based on your top values such as freedom, love, flexibility

3. Leaving town and working at the same time – being completely MOBILE.

4. In the beginning it can be difficult, but if you persevere, the results are amazing!

5. Taking naps when you feel like it.

6. Working from cafes and libraries, choosing beautiful environments to work in versus a cold ACed room with neon lights (ew).

A hunger for the good life lies deep within us all. But it requires an honest evaluation of who we are and how we are living. Some manage to avoid these hard questions for years, or even for a whole lifetime- diligently going with each year’s flow without pausing to imagine other possible destinations. With the passing of years, our childhood dreams are pierced by reality. Our daily lives are filled with obligations and pressures. As we grow older, we drift away from ‘what could be’ toward a life shaped not by personal vision or calling but by circumstance and compromise”- Life Entrepreneur

An Exerpt From A To Be Published Book In The Future….By Me When I quit my full time job: 

“The common question was “how are you going to pay rent?” This question would constantly pop up in my mind throughout the year.

 Now I realize that question was never mine, but the naysayers, the doubters. That question will never be mine. I will always be able to pay rent. Nothing I did made sense. It still doesn’t. One thing that I started doing more was listening to the spirit, the creator, a higher being. I took time to meditate and slow down. The meditations caused me to focus on what I felt and what I wanted in life.

 When I quit work and had a goodbye party, I thought to myself, “Instead of continuing this ugly and painful rat race, why don’t I do what I’ve been yearning for all this time?”

Who is this workshop for?

  • For anyone who is YEARNING FOR MORE in life, you feel like there is something missing and you want a taste of what life CAN be like.
  • For anyone who has GIVEN UP on yourself, on your dreams, maybe even life itself.
  • For anyone who is thinking about STARTING YOUR OWN BUSINESS, but don’t know how to or have no idea what to do
  • For anyone who is THINKING ABOUT MAKING A MAJOR LIFE CHANGE– quitting your job, moving, traveling, volunteering overseas, writing a book, focusing on people in your life, whatever IT IS.
