Your power/Your value

Aware of people

I think this is very personal and it goes with the unique experience you have in life. But it is crucial to remain aware of the people you trust, because sometimes people may ignore your feelings or abuse your good will. There is no evil people per se out there, but there is indeed highly ignorant people everywhere.

Nature of progress

Forgiving is of the better human being, because it is letting go of frustration and anger, of feelings of betrayal and neglect to move on with your life, to create a better you. But, having established this better nature of progress, the first thing is self-respect.

See your true value

Respect yourself enough to say “no more” or “I deserve better”. And this self-respect begins the moment you see your true value and stop leaning on others for love and happiness, for acceptance and approval. Free yourself. Awaken yourself.

About that great drive…

Development of a great purpose

You know, one thing about purpose is that is a requirement in life, especially the older you get you realize it more and more. Having a purpose is something that creates real passion in you, and also great motivation that is born from you without the approval from the people/society around you.

As you all know, my greatest purpose is the constant development of my writing and creativity. But I admit it is a challenge for me. I sometimes get so immersed in the story and in the purpose driving the characters that I deviate from the plot, or branch out from the plot altogether.

So, I usually have to go back, even re-edit what I’ve written, fix the scenes, and then describe the new events to attract the reader. It might sound funny, but it happens in our lives, when we get so excited or overjoyed with something that we have to stop ourselves and look back to where we are going.

How to treat a great purpose

Many of you won’t understand this, perhaps, but it is extremely important to be patient and pay attention to detail when following a purpose. Let’s say, a relationship, for example: It takes time and dedication.

Maybe we have to fix what we did and change our attitude towards such and such. Because love, poured onto any purpose of great value to you, must be treated with love, kindness, and great patience for it to bloom like the most beautiful flower and give us that sense of great meaning in our lives.

Great joy and Purpose

The greatest feeling

How good is challenging yourself. To say “I can do more,” or “I can be more”. To find something we like, make it into a passion, and pushing ourselves to mastery. I personally have the example of my writing. As an Indie author, I carry my own style, my own voice, and the way I write and describe things is different than other authors.

Not better or worse, just different. It took me years to developed my craft, even more than a decade before publishing my first book. But I can say that there is no other feeling so great as to know you are really good at something you’re passionate about. And the fact that I’m always practicing and perfecting myself gives me great joy and purpose.

Training that feeling

And to increase that feeling of joy, of mastery, of knowing your craft, you must develop a schedule. Wake up early, exercise your mind and body, then take the time to practice what you love to do. This is my life, and that is why I write about this.

Because anyone with a strong desire, passion and purpose can do it. Never belittle yourself. Never look at others and compare yourself. You are unique. And you find that uniqueness in you by finding your passion and challenging yourself to become better and better at it. Practice! Practice! Practice!

Just do your best

With faith & passion

No one is perfect. We all go through something. One day is a good day. Another day is a bad day. Life is a roller coaster, so don’t be too hard on yourself. As I see it, I just do the best I can; and, in time, things get better. You should see it like that too, it’ll help you in this life of unknowns.

I feel that punishing yourself for mistakes or failures in life is pointless. Learning and moving on with faith and passion onto better progress. This is something that I think most of us should focus on, instead of remaing stuck on what didn’t work or didn’t come out as expected.

Vast horizon

The mental prison

We all have proplems–financial, in relationships, personal, etc. And the mind can be a prison. When one lives in one’s own mental world, great distress, great overthinking. This can really drive a person mad, and make this one aggressive towards others as well.

We may even lose focus of what is important in our lives, neglect ourselves and those close to us. I personally let it go. It’s a mental practice, never becoming attached to anything at all; but especially to those things I have no control over.

The greatest freedom

And letting go is not so easy at times. But is freedom what we must seek in life, not more debt, not more beliefs, not more traditions, not more commitments to something we are not passionate about. But freedom. Always freedom.

Freedom is psychological. To feel free to think clearly. To feel free from overthinking and the burdens it brings. We will love life according to how we feel. If we feel positive, there’s a bigger chance and capacity for us to be happy and in love.

About loneliness…

Feeling lonely

When someone feels lonely is really because that person feels empty, even without knowing it, which means an intimate, individual purpose is lacking. See, loneliness does not come from an empty home, or from no people around, or from no special someone in your life.

Individual purpose

Loneliness comes because there is no real intimacy with yourself, which means your inner communication, kind and inspirational self-talk is not there. Try occupying your time to fix this, creating a personal purpose that does not involve others, designing daily behaviors that bring you more health of body and mind.

Finding purpose

How I see things

I have spent much of my life in anger, frustrated, expecting life to be compassionate to me because I always saw myself as a good man. Coming from Argentina to United States, 20 years ago or so, was a big change, in culture, and in ways of thinking and feeling. So I started to see life in a different way.

Life does not respond to what you think you deserve, but it responds to your persistence and behavior aimed to your goals. And I learned that you must be specific in your goals. You can’t just wish for happiness. But you must trace a detailed plan of what you want and persevere on it, no matter the obstacles in your path.

Hone your skills

For years, I never really knew what to do. What really gives me passion, joy and purpose?? Because we, especially men, must have a purpose that gives us great joy and makes us feel confident in ourselves. So, I worked for years on my writing skills, never knowing really what to do with this. But it gave me so much direction and understanding. It gave me a new sight, in a sense.

To feel and actually know that I am extremely good at something important to me. After I became a published author I gained so much discipline and confidence, which spread through all aspects of my life. I write this to remind you of the importance of finding your own purpose and passion. And there is no worthless or trivial skill or talent. Always know that.

Precious time

Choose your people

So many of us spend time with people who do not support us, or who do not inspire us, or who only bring us self-doubt and negativity. But I have learned that it is vital to give your time only to people who help you become better at some level, not people who waste your time with stupidity or people who do not fit the life you want to lead for yourself.

Your time is precious

Now, I understand that sometimes we have to visit family, friends, or be in situations which are not ideal or inspirational. This happens to any of us. But I also understand that my time is precious, so I will use it mostly for what benefits me, for that which makes me feel loved and happy.

So, having in mind this, I will be direct with others. I will tell them exactly how I feel, and what I need. If they do not understand me or support me still, I will just walk away. I won’t leave them entirely, but I will spend less time with them. So, that’s my suggestion to you, and it is to learn to manage your time better, and to truly understand that your time on this earth is precious.

Hobbies…

What are the best hobbies…??

The best hobbies are the ones which bring passion and commitment out of you, the ones that make you feel important and free. To me, the best hobby brings me pure joy and that sense of importance. The best hobby is more than just fun, because it has to give you discipline and love for what you do.

A guide to yourself

A hobby is also something that gives you quality time with yourself, and in this time you may ponder your feelings and thoughts more intimately. Because sometimes life gets too busy for us to ponder like this, hobbies are a wonderful source for making friendship with ourselves.

I find my writing, my painting, my drawing quite liberating; because it is what gives me pride, joy, self-discipline, and a sense of freedom and time to discover myself. And discovering ourselves is why we are alive, why we experience joy and misery, why we have the gift of self-awareness.

The Light of Pure Love.

Loving with purity

You only get hurt when the way you love has attachment. Pure love has no attachment. To love with this purity, you must first love yourself above everybody and anything else. Pure love then only exists when there is higher understanding in you.

An understanding that the very existence of pure love in your life is only created by you, strengthened by you, and sanctified by you. The world suffers from lack of this higher understanding. Don’t join the world. Live in it, but don’t join it.

Problems when loving yourself

Our love is not pure, not true, non-existent, when we allow our minds to become overwhelmed by the world around us. If something bad happens, the mind is allowed to suffer for it, via self-pity, via anger and frustration. This distorts love and it shifts our attention to the illusion, and the illusion is what is out there. What matters is what is inside you, because how you feel is what’s real.

Feeling better

The journey is about self-discovery. Self-discovery cannot exist without our complete attention. So, we have to let go of what happens in the world, in our lives, the suffering, the childhood traumas, etc; and then we can focus 100% on how we feel, on working on feeling better, on self-discovery and healing. Once we do this, we can start to accept and love ourselves.

The habits

There is nothing more important than accepting and loving ourselves. This is not being selfish, but this is about filling yourself with empathy, kindness, love, in order to live a more positive, happy, successful life while giving the example to others. And for this, we must work on self-healing habits. Habits which make us feel proud of ourselves, joyful, and of great value to us.

I only seek the magic that’s within me.  While most grow up and forget, I just desire to remember it again.
