celebrating our uniqueness

For a moment stop and think - you start your day at 6:00 am, rush out of home, hit rush hour traffic, work hard, rush home, cook, eat, watch TV, hit the bed and start another hectic day. Have you become a socially accepted zombie living for everyone but yourself? Is this the life you dreamt of while growing up?

Created by the expectations of SOCIETY, we are conditioned to settle for the second best. Loosing our identity to "theydentity", we carry burdens from the society to mold into what everyone is doing. Your way of life may certainly be accepted by society but is this what you really want?

Deep inside us lies the passion to conquer the world and reach to heights no one has ever achieved. Then why is it that some of us succeed and some don't?

The answers lie in seeing beyond our conditioning. To conquer the outside world, we must conquer our inside world because our outer world is a reflection of our inner world. Once our inside world is in tune with our true self, our outer world becomes beautiful beyond our imagination. Every circumstance we attract in our life is in direct relation to how we think and feel inside. We must have a good process internally to create great circumstances around us. Two strong emotions, love and fear, run our processes. When fear runs our process, we sabotage our success and when love runs our process we encounter success every step of the way.

How do we know what emotion is predominant in our life? From the time we are born our environment, belief system, values, experiences, and influences from others create deeply embedded patterns in our subconscious mind. It is not uncommon for a person who believes that life is a struggle will always attract struggle in his/her life. If you are living with similar recordings from the past, my suggestion would be to create new recordings. Remember your life is a projection related to your internal programming.

It is our responsibility to move beyond the conditioning and break away from the patterns to blossom to our unique self.

Following are a few recommendations to discover the unique you:

>> The next time you feel angry, guilty, or upset examine where these feelings are coming from. Are you seeing the situation from your past experiences or from a fresh perspective. Remember no person can cause you any pain without your consent.

>> Keep a journal and jot down your daily highlights. If you don't like writing, reflect on your day. We get insights throughout the day to find our uniqueness, but we have to pay attention.

>> Remember - thoughts are there for you and you are not there for your thoughts.

>> Expect the best and leave the rest.

>> Stop comparing - you are unique. There never was and never will be another you.

>> Be thankful for what you have.

>> Love your unique self.

>> Have fun and laugh - a laughter a day keeps the doctor away.

>> Always give a smile or blessings from your heart to each and everyone you encounter.

>> Take responsibility for your thoughts, words, and actions. Dare to be yourself and ask for what you want - you will get it!
