Are You Truly Free In Life?

Perhaps you could have come up with other issues that matter more "freedom", like your personal health, your wealth accumulation, your amazing family or love relationship. However, if you are not able to face your personal health, wealth, or any of your relationships with a heart of freedom, all these seemingly beautiful and enjoyable things in life can turn out to be a unbearable burden.

You may be physically very healthy but you could persistently be upset by some of your internal troubles and conflicts, to a point where constant depression and worries are slowly eroding your own will to even live. You sometimes may even wish that you could be the lying on a patient's bed, at least there will be someone who can comfort you and take good care of you. Having abundant wealth may not bring you happiness and a sense of security, for you may have to cast your worries everyday on the many eagle eyes preying on your wealth. The same goes for relationships, many a times it can bring about many negative emotions that are threatening to wreck your life. If you truly have a heart of freedom, a burden will not seem like a burden. Instead, it will form a part of yourself. You can carry it freely wherever you go, and even feel stronger with their presence. It is only then that you can truly enjoy the happiness that comes with your health, wealth, and relationships.




We face people of all sorts most of our lives, be it in workplace or anywhere else. One noticeable trait of someone who does not have a heart of freedom is someone who may be self-centred. These people will always have reasons to complain about things whenever a work task is assigned to him or her. They hardly see the positive value in the work they do and easily get jealous of other's achievements and say nasty comments to justify the reasons why others may have been chosen for promotion or a reward rather than themselves. Any words of explanation will only seek to aggravate them and be seen by them as a form of sarcasm.

 No matter how capable these people are, they ought to be pitied upon. Simply because they have possibly taken a simple and enjoyable task and made it miserable. They are not free deep within their hearts, for they are being imprisoned by their desires and ambitions. They have created a cage and locked themselves in with self-resentment.

 Are you truly free in life? Because if you do not have a heart of freedom deep down, all the amazing things in this world will just turn out to be your cage that imprisons you forever. For I am, like many of you, traveling towards the road to freedom and making it one of many important lessons of my life.

How You See Yourself Ultimately Decides The Kind of Life You Will Live

Image
Until the moment when we finally find our souls, we are always being influenced by the environment we are in from a very young age. Our thoughts and beliefs are pretty much entirely shaped by our family and society.  However, what the world often says and what the world later does are often against each other. One day, when we feel that we are completely abandoned by the world, we will slowly come to a realisation and enlightenment. That is when our inner selves will grow to be stronger, we learn to ignore the naysayers, we form new perspectives on Life and gain alternative strategies on how to traverse this world we live in. It is at this moment that your inner soul is no longer as ignorant as it used to be; all sorts of Joker , big or small, will be born.  Joker (2019 film) From the Big Bang, to the formation of our solar system, to the existence of Mother Earth, to the creation of various lifeforms, to the evolution of Homo Sapiens, to the birth of your very self.

Start From The Things Where You Can Do Best, To Make The World A Better Place

To be able to make a contribution to mankind or the society can also be a kind of blessing. Take a step back and look at the Life most of us are going through thus far. In order to minimize inconvenience in our lives and the lives of others, most of us practice self-restraint. That is how the majority of us try to do in order to get us to where we are at various stages of Life. In the face of growing old and moving toward the livelihood of being an old man, the majority of us, at least, can perhaps attempt to shift away from our current standpoint or way of thinking of restraining ourselves towards something that speaks "do-what-you-love-to-do" as the focal point in living. One of the practical way of doing this is to transform that "who-am-I-doing-it-for" or "this-is-for-the-good-of-the-community" that forms the basis of our survival in today's context by adding in the element of "doing-what you-love-to-do". I deeply believe that

Courageous People Will Make Themselves Look Normal. 5 Signs Of "Courage" Based on Alfred Adler's Psychology Theory

Image
Those who lack courage, will resort to all means possible to look 'special'; those who possess courage, will blend themselves in as being 'normal'. Courage is the feeling in which you experience strength and you are of worth, as well as the belief that you can take on Life's problems. Life's going will never be all rosy and smooth-sailing, it may sometimes be due to work, interpersonal relationships, love relationships, or parent-child relationships; or it may also be due to a series of obstacles you faced along the way. Whenever we encounter difficulties, all of us are given two choices: one is to face it head on, and another is to run away from it. The latter of which is termed is Superiority Complex and Inferiority Complex. Let's take a look the 5 signs of "Courage" as advocated through Alfred Adler's school of thoughts.  The feeling that you are capable and worthy of achievements The crux of the problem is that avoiding problems
