Realizations are very powerful. They inspire our feelings, stir our thoughts and trigger our (re) actions. During a lifetime of unique experiences, learned behaviors and conditioned responses we have developed a certain outlook on life, a way of looking at ourselves and other people. It is those views or realizations we hold about ourselves, our deep thoughts and feelings about who we are, about life, God and other people which have created the world, the reality we live in. Most of those realizations we hold within are negative, destructive, self-limiting and irrational, but as they are the result of our subjective, emotional, mental and intellectual response to experience they have been a static and seemingly unchangeable part of the person we are today.

How we look at ourselves and others determines the level on which we experience life.

Depending on what we focus on in our environment, the kind of vibes and energy we feed off on we react to external stimuli in a certain predictable and static way. As we have gained a certain perspective from which we see and judge the world around us we compare that which is going on around us to ourselves and our personal expectations, evaluations, judgments and impressions. Ultimately it is this personality orientation which keeps us from actively changing since we try and find that which we are lacking ourselves in the world around us. The pursuit of happiness, seeking love, meaning and seeking positive distraction from ‘the realities of social pressure and expectations” only keep us from understanding that those ideals are not to be found in the world outside, but rather are qualities to be developed from within ourselves so they can become of our general attitude towards ourselves, other people and life in general.

It is only too apparant then that our conditioned Self is very different from Our true and authentic Self, our happy, loving, kind, empathic, reasonable and creative Self. How to gain the awareness of how to live in accordance to our genuine Self, how to be more truthful towards ourselves as well as towards one another is the primary purpose of everything that follows.

Within each and every one of us lies a vast array of human endowments, among them our our capacity for love, happiness, reason, our unique human potential, our personal talents, skills, interests and ambitions, as well as a variety of human virtues such as patience, kindness, compassion, empathy and humility. The problem is that most of us are not aware of them because the situation and circumstances of our life has never called them forth.

How to develop on those, our human endowments as to give birth to our authentic Self is the first and foremost purpose of this tribe, and my work as personal growth facilitator, coach, motivational speaker and inspirational writer.

Thank you for joining, and I am looking forward to a productive and engaging discussion.
