Change
Sapan PatelWhether it is a series of repetitive doomed-from-the-beginning relationships, perpetual financial despair, or chronic health problems, everything in our life is a clear reflection of what we believe we are worthy of having.
Unfortunately, because the majority of deeply held beliefs are below our level of conscious awareness, we tend to not realize how much we’re actually sabotaging ourselves.
Most people usually choose to follow the common ways of thinking — those used by the majority. This is a possible reason why problems tend to remain unsolved for a long time, and their solutions are usually sluggish processes.
It is easy for people to get used to things — even when it may be something completely unwanted.
According to Socrates, “An unexamined life is not worth living.” We now know such a bold statement could be made because he believed the purpose of life was personal and spiritual growth.
However, in today’s society amidst a weekly cycle of work and consumption which keeps us too busy to slow down, it would appear as though self-awareness is highly discouraged.
When we make time to examine our life, patterns of behavior can be revealed. And deeper contemplation can yield understanding of the subconscious programming, the powerful mental software that can run our life. Unless we become aware of these below-the-surface programmed patterns, much of our life can remain in a cycle of unconscious repetition.
Within the repetition, it is easy to assume if an unwanted, or problematic pattern has existed for some time, a solution would be impossible to find.
However, the greatest difficulty is not related to the implementation of the solution, but instead to transition your mind from the old ways of thinking into new ways of thinking:
Change is not just about you, it’s about every single one of us
Necessity of present day times reiterates that not one of us can continue to remain underneath the weight of outdated beliefs, perceptions and actions that serve only a few.
“It is important for each of us to step out of the world that appears to be crumbling, and step into a new world to offer the vision and the consciousness that can take us from this unsustainable place where we are now.”
We can begin to to move our individual awareness toward ideas and values that can actively guide the processes of change. And with personal capability, each of us can choose to be an individual who is willing to bring forth change — the idea that calls to each one of us, the idea whose time has come.
