After reaching…

“Focused, hard work is the real key to success.  Keep your eyes on the goal, and just keep taking the next step towards completing it.  If you aren’t sure which way to do something, do it both ways and see which works better.”  ~ John Carmack; American game programmer and virtual reality engineer.


“There is no substitute for hard work.”  ~ Thomas A. Edison; American inventor and businessman.


 

There is a tendency in most people to believe that talent is what makes great men and women or that it is what really matters, and so they use the excuse to not accomplish or pursuit great things in life saying that they have no talent; however, talent, is like love, it is the essence of creativity which we have within us, which we are, and it is not something one has and the other doesn’t.

thu

But, having established that we are talent, each one of us, we must understand that because we are tied to this thought and this flesh, our humanity through time, then it is not enough to be love and talent as essence, but we must do certain things to design that talent into whatever we choose to do.

This process of designing may take weeks, months, years of practice depending on the passions we pursue.

 

What I am saying here is that talent is nothing without the process of creating it, without the hard work and dedication we must put into it to develop it.  You have to really understand that finding your truest passion and developing it is absolutely everything, because in order to embrace true happiness and feelings of success then it is a must to free yourself from the chains of fear and change.

To do this, work on your talents, stop procrastinating and looking for excuses not to develop yourself.

This is self-love.  And if you choose not to embrace self-love, you cannot really be happy but only design the false sense of happiness; and this is feeding your own ego, your fears.

There is a source of creativity and wise spontaneity unlike any other, unique to you and to your humanity; such which travels and exists via Infinite Intelligence, and which has nothing to do with your mortal mind filled with all kinds of fears and confusion.  This you must reach deep within you because you are here to use it and shape it to your individual expression   You must work on this process of freedom all your life.   This is your purpose.

Flowing.

“Aging gracefully means being flexible, being open, allowing change, enjoying change and loving yourself.”  ~ Wendy Whelan; American ballet dancer.


“Ultimately spiritual awareness unfolds when you’re flexible, when you’re spontaneous, when you’re detached, when you’re easy on yourself and easy on others.”  ~ Deepak Chopra; Indian-American author, public speaker, alternative medicine advocate, and prominent figure in the New Age movement.


 

Life is all about creation, change, always moving forwards; and one must measure up to life by assimilating this ongoing change, by building new ideas, by adopting new lifestyles, by acquiring fit approaches to understand life’s new challenges and events.

02c45b147891dcb648831d3db5c0c0d3
Let me tell you now, whoever does not see life each day as new, as the tides of the ocean are new, is not adapting and enjoying a full life.

 

In order to adapt and become flexible, you must not hold firm and stubborn to beliefs and ideas, to lifestyles and expectations; but you must allow your mind to be free of these chains, be an open mind, adapt to new views and stop expecting people and life to support you and give you what your ego thinks you deserve.

Wake up and recognize that you drive your own life, that you choose to adapt or not, and that nothing outside of yourself has real power but what you allow it to have.

editeddarwin

 

There is a vast source of energy for adaptation to change which lives beyond the beliefs and ideas of your mind, and this vast source does not have anything to do with your outside situations and environment.

You must then reach deep within and love yourself enough to let your mind be silent and free of loud thoughts, then you must calm yourself and realize that change is good for your human development, for no happiness or great achievements can be embraced without having a mind that is truly free to change with life.

Source of The Universe.

“It is difficult to understand the universe if you only study one planet.”  ~ Miyamoto Musashi; expert Japanese swordsman, rōnin, and author.


“People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates.”  ~ Thomas Szasz; Hungarian-American academic, psychiatrist, and psychoanalyst.



So, one discovers, knows, and embraces one’s own strength only if the mind is not agitated.  But what is this mean exactly…??  Do you know what drives the human being into great acts…??  Do you know why most people are decent people but they never create greatness in their lives…??  Do you know where the cosmic secret beyond time and space lies…??

th
The world moves forth and most people sees this without a deeper thought, but, no matter how nice and loving they can be, they are not awake enough to understand that the world only is what it is and moves forth the way it moves forth because of the inner state of each human being–i.e., not because of animals, no because of trees, but because of human beings.

And whoever is not awake enough to understand this, believes that whatever they think and do does not really affect the world around them, so they start believing that what they need to create a better world is outside of them.

So, their minds are neglected, the ego takes over, and the world suffers because of that mediocrity, most of the time from well-intentioned people.


But the human race has been given higher intelligence over other sentient beings for a reason, not just to increase an ego which seeks the truth on the outside; therefore, that reason is the management of our higher thinking tools to inquire within ourselves, meditate, discover the essence of Life itself and The Great Creation within–no other being on Earth has been given self-awareness like this.

Because all the world around you is a mere reflection or a perfect hologram of the real pattern which lies within you.

interpersonal-ppt-journey-into-self-awareness-6-638

Furthermore, it might be difficult to find time to think about who we are, our strengths and weaknesses, our drives and personalities, our habits and values.   And even when personal feedback is presented to us, we’re not always open to it, because honest feedback isn’t always flattering; consequently, many people has a pretty low level of self-awareness.  But self-awareness can improve your judgment and help us identify opportunities for professional development and personal growth.  And so, what is more important than self-love, than improving yourself…??

Self-awareness is the power of introspection and reflection the world needs right now and always will, it is what your life needs.  And because your own happiness and a great life is created from within you, then you must take time to inquire within yourself and find out your reaction motives and meditate on your reason and logic of beliefs and thoughts, find out every day why you act and see life the way you see it, project yourself outside of your own mind and feel what other people feels and thinks, study the human psychology and behavioral patterns of the world.  This will give you the powerful insight into your human spirit and into life’s greatest secrets.


Stop seeking where to lean, the truth, love, peace, happiness, support, beliefs, company, on the outside; for, to discover all this, you must go to the source of the Universe and of Life itself, and that is you.

Then, with this truth to all, you create your life and the world.\

Rise of The Gods.

“All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.”  ~ Earl Nightingale; American radio speaker, and self-help author.


“If you plan on being anything less than you are capable of being, you will probably be unhappy all the days of your life.”  ~ Abraham Maslow; American pioneer psychologist and professor.


 

This physical life is a beautiful succession of still photographs, and to find yourself and really embrace life at its fullest you must live in the moment, enjoy each moment, allow your attention to be on each moment, whether pleasant or unpleasant situations, do not escape but be there; however, because our human spirit needs to be allowed by our humanity to have outlets, to express itself freely, we, as human beings, need to rule over our egoistical and lazy minds and develop talents and skills in which we feel the passion and freedom coursing through our veins.

6863_20121103_111525_407632_343212045775236_294920062_n[1]

To free yourself, your spirit, to embrace true and constant happiness in your life, you must have a plan or vision of what is most important for you, a goal which helps you wake up each morning happy to be alive and working towards something heartfelt and noble; but, opposite to this, you cannot live each moment just hoping for the best and allowing your mind and the situations surrounding you to lead you randomly forward, for only you are meant to create and rule in your own life–i.e., not your ego, not your family, not society, but you and only you.

 

If you are not waking up each morning and loving every second of your life, breathing in and watching yourself get better and better in the development of your skills and talents, then you will not be able to free your human spirit from the bondage of a lazy and stressful ego, thus you will not experience the true essence of happiness which starts with self-love.

 

This self-development is all about your internal state, this is not about your country, culture, or your current financial condition; therefore, you could live on the streets or inside a very humble abode, but there is always something to improve in yourself–kindness, a deeper emotional connection with yourself, the planning of a future through planning strategies for a business, working on writing stories to develop imagination, drawing, mastering a certain topic to publish a book, selling something you make, etc. etc.

The goal here is not fame or fortune, but it is to train your mind to move forward and to create something that you keep dear to your heart, because in this way you free your human spirit and let it soar to new experiences, to new heights.
Remind yourself of this every single day.

Under the moon.

“Men are like the earth and we are the moon; we turn always one side to them, and they think there is no other.”  ~ Olive Schreiner; South African author, anti-war campaigner and intellectual.


Under The Moon

Our hearts dance Under The Moon so bright,
Angels sing as we hold each other tight,
Enjoying the experience of the eternal moment,
Two best friends and two lovers without comment;
Our eyes communicate what our mouths cannot utter,
Our ears listen to the sweet music of the river’s flutter.

Up into the mountains and away from the crowds,
Staring up into the heavens with no clouds,
We came through the path full of tree leaves,
Crossed the valley and passed the farm’s sheaves;
Seeing the open skies Under The Moon,
We sat upon the heart-shaped trunk hewn.

Blood within us boils as our hands gently touch,
For we connect in great measure so much,
For there are no words to describe our care,
The feeling so magical like walking on air.
And Under The Moon we become one soul,
Love shines through from within us as the goal.

~ Asa.

Invincible.

“There are no contests in the Art of Peace.  A true warrior is invincible because he or she contests with nothing.  Defeat means to defeat the mind of contention that we harbor within.”  ~ Morihei Ueshiba.


“When life is victorious, there is birth; when it is thwarted, there is death.  A warrior is always engaged in a life-and-death struggle for Peace.”  ~ Morihei Ueshiba; Japanese martial artist and founder of the Japanese martial art of aikido.



The way of the sage is the way of the warrior, and the way of the warrior is acceptance and mental clarity in his own life; but there cannot exist true acceptance and absolute mental clarity if the mind of that warrior is filled with beliefs and an ego which is not tamed, unruly and rebellious, designing all kinds of emotional schemes and heated states of mind.  This soon becomes the hell of the ordinary mind.

244939761-Wise-Quotes-44004-statusmind_com

Peace brings a state of clarity and joy to the mind wherever it goes and in any situation, and this precisely heightens that same mind into a constant condition of harmony within the real self.

The opportunities of human growth in the intellectual, spiritual, and economical aspects seem to appear in our midst when there is a deeper connection to the wisdom of mental clarity; and so ideas and strategies appear in consciousness making the mind rich and useful.  This is the higher awareness of the superior mind.

Man’s task is to raise himself above the ordinary mind full of beliefs and traditions, selfish desires and appetites, by increasing his own awareness of self and by meditating upon a clearer mind–this is done by process of emptying the ordinary mind from books and religious nonsense, philosophical stands and rebellious ideas, selfish appetites and egoistical daily lies, etc. etc.

 

If you have a clear and focused mind with a vision, then all fear and anger, anxiety and frustration, dissipates, because the human mind allows your experience to be where your attention is; so, if your attention is on possible failure and in the difficulties of a challenge, then your mind will make you experience fear, all anxiety and frustration; but if your attention is on success and on the commitment to strategy each moment, then your mind will make you experience confidence and the positive attitude and thinking that your new winning perspective takes–and this feeling will overtake your whole body and drive you forth.

 

Most people tend to pay attention to the writings and words of others, without actually thinking that each mind is unique, and that each life and path to success is unique.  If you try then to copy the journey of others, whether these others have achieved greatness or not, you will deviate from your real purpose; such being the liberation of your human spirit via your own developed talents, ideas, skills, strategies, etc. 

Don’t fall prey of society and of your own ego, of your own intellect.  Peace means clarity, and you must work on yourself and focus only on yourself to develop inner peace, to erase all fear and confusion to get ahead and express your pure and most noble heart’s desires.

Greatness unleashed!

“Don’t let fear or insecurity stop you from trying new things.  Believe in yourself.  Do what you love.  And most importantly, be kind to others, even if you don’t like them.”  ~ Stacy London; American stylist/fashion consultant, author, and magazine editor.


“Don’t aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.”  ~ David Frost; English journalist, comedian, writer, media personality and television host.



One of the problems people encounters is not to understand desire, so they believe that just by following a desire your mind came up with and you envision yourself enjoying is enough to reach success–so they see celebrities with money and fame, they want that; they see writers publishing successful books, they want this; they see great businesses expanding worldwide, they want it and start a business.


But the reality is that your desire alone, no matter how strong that desire is, does not drive you to any success, because you need constant confidence and patience to succeed at anything, such mighty things a simple desire does not give you; but only a truly passionate heart does, and that is more challenging than just a simple desire in your mind.

23131821_382847002148668_7090736365411008933_n

You must forge yourself and find your noble and truest passion, something you truly love from your heart, something you honestly believe in, if you really want great success in life.

See, it does not matter if you don’t think it would bring success, it does not matter if your passion is something you do not see as popular in society; because what creates success in life is not just the product or idea you sell or bring to the public, but the way you do it and the passion is, and the personal belief you have.


People take time, so you need patience, but they pick up on the passion you have; for it is the invisible force the one that attracts success, and that is your natural drive.
th
Either you live your life just existing and hoping for the best each moment without greater vision (loser’s chosen lifestyle), or you take full control with great strategy and working towards a vision, slowly but steady, patiently but 100% committed (successful mindset).  Your choice must allow you to experience true happiness–mentally, spiritually, economically.
A mind that is strong will learn and become stronger from obstacles and challenges.  A mind that is weak and pitiful will become weaker and quit on the first pebble on the road.  And if you don’t find your truest, most heartfelt passion, you will have no drive to last and endure the road to success.
Find that drive, be patient, believe in yourself, and the world is yours.  This is my current experience.

True heart of empathy.

empathy-quote-a-place-for-mom
Enter a caption

 

Empathy is that power with which all beings were endowed, which only concerns the pure heart, pure Infinite Intelligence, and has no reference or co-existence with and along the ego; because the ego is of the mortal mind, attached to the physical senses, it creates customs, traditions, beliefs, appetites, and all things which are bound to time, space, and to moods.

 

Empathy is then related to intuition, it is to listen and follow only the heart; but most people confuse this, because their hearts have been allowed pollution by a desire, by a belief, by an idea from their mortal minds, and thus they “believe” they are following a pure heart.  But the heart has no belief.  Truth has no belief. 

But this is the mediocre state of the human mind.  The only way to know empathy is to raise above this mediocre mind.  Do what is right, not what your appetites desire.

 


“A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite.  And to act so is immoral.”  ~ Leo Tolstoy; Russian philosopher, and novelist.


“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.”  ~ Mahatma Gandhi.


 

The heart of man is polluted by the ego of the same man, such man of considered “goodness” and “kindness”–so they eat animals, wear them, destroy nature, pollute habitats, torture animals, etc. etc.

CHuinHwXAAANwy5

This is, of course, hidden in arguments and beliefs the ego creates and that “spiritual” and non-spiritual men and women of great weakness follow as their ravenous appetite.  And then they claim to know love.

 

But love, beyond romanticism and friendship, is an essence which creates, builds with FULL compassion and goodness, it has no ego appetites and it sees no differences between a man and a cow, or between the earth and a man.

This is true love.  Don’t try to understand what I am saying with your intellect, because if you do, then your ego will start making up excuses and justifying behaviors.  Only the pure, untainted heart of empathy knows my message.

22814302_10156673503262388_7359138747780244734_n

Love is an experience ONLY the truly awakened knows, and the rest who “believe” they are awakened because of their knowledge do not know (the ego makes them believe that they know it).

Love is Oneness and Oneness cannot exist if there are two beings with differences; for whenever you see differences and you say to yourself, “Is just an animal, buy the steak”, there is no Oneness, there exists no love.

Your ego can try to deceive you and justify all you do, but deep inside you know the truth.

The Fountain.

“First comes thought; then organization of that thought, into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination.”  ~ Napoleon Hill; American self-help author.


“With ideas it is like with dizzy heights you climb: At first they cause you discomfort and you are anxious to get down, distrustful of your own powers; but soon the remoteness of the turmoil of life and the inspiring influence of the altitude calm your blood; your step gets firm and sure and you begin to look for dizzier heights.”  ~ Nikola Tesla.



The energy of ideas comes to us from Infinite Intelligence and our ego molds it into a concept or belief, an image or strategy; therefore, this essence of creativity is divine and gives us the responsibility of forming inspiring and wise thoughts with it.

Sadly, most people do not recognize this, and so they create contention and prejudice, religious and cultural enmity, self-destructive behaviors, and the rest, with the god-given energy of their minds.

Imagination-should

Imagination then comes to us as the greatest form of inspiration and fuel to create happiness and so reach great things in our individual lives; and this is why is so important to feed our mortal minds properly, to be ready and offer the right atmosphere, to shape ideas and all thought-forms to aid humanity, not to pity ourselves and others but to raise above mediocrity and reach higher states of thought.

 

Imagination is what we are, is indeed what allows us to move freely, think freely and create; however, our mortal, biased egos, can take that imagination and build beauty as well as misery, and thus bring that into the world. 

But we are above all pity and nonsense from a massive and misguided ego, and the key to realize that lies in the wisdom buried deep inside us; therefore, the wisdom which can help us create, innovate, move our own lives forth with nobility and success, with happiness and a greater love towards ourselves and the world.


Remind yourself daily that life is the playground where you shape ideas and create your life. 
The understanding of this will help you honor great ideas.

Winning.

“People do not seem to realize that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.”  ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson; American essayist, lecturer, and poet.

“You have power over your mind, not on outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”  ~ Marcus Aurelius.


When you face a challenge or your mind for any reason gets confused and agitated, ask yourself what can you do to feel calmer and stronger to see things with more clarity and less confusion.

And if you are really asking to your inner self, beyond your agitated ego, then the answer will be clear, it might not come up to you right away, but if you are patient then it will come to you as clear as rain.

conexion-con-el-yo-superior

Your mind’s task is to quickly throw opinions and thoughts at you in order for you to choose and create behaviors to events, in order for you to create and interact in this world, in order for you to make things happen and build your path.

These judgments or opinions are just tools, they are not you; they serve a purpose, that’s it.  What creates mental suffering and chaos in your life is what you choose, your internal decisions and not what is happening outside.


The whole world is in your mind, because you make reality in your mind, thus you make the world and the experience of it.  Whatever you encounter, whatever you see or battle in your life may not affect you if you have mastered this mental law; for if you choose your thoughts, if you follow and dwell upon the ones which give you peace and clarity, then, your body will be built in self-love from within and you will gain faith and confidence in all you go through, in all you do, thus eliminating fear and confusion.



The world can come down in pieces on you and yet it cannot affect you if your mind is tamed and you keep choosing right.

Choose what leads to mental peace and your body will find the strength to keep going; but, choose what leads to stress and violent thoughts and your body will respond by bringing illness and more stress into your life.
