The deeper the suffering, the greater the soul. Most people are not aware of their soul self until later in life. The trials and tribulations we undergo are what develop our persona. The easier life is, the more you take this experience for granted. It’s through experiencing loss, betrayal, abandonment, fear and even spite that we grow to forgive. Whether our pain is self-directed or external, forgiving ourselves and those who have hurt us; is how we begin to heal the wounds. In order to forgive, we have to accept our circumstances and move on. When you truly forgive, the inner angst will dwindle and you’ll feel the emotional rebirth in your life. Gratitude will follow. As your vibration shifts from negative thought patterns, you will begin to attract better outcomes and experience less suffering. Your energy is either magnetic or repelling, so make a conscious effort to elevate.

Achieve happiness by releasing the weight of expectations.
When we drop our preconceived notions of who we should be, we release the strain of being alive. If you free yourself from the mundane struggle of getting ahead, you will be infinitely happier. Choose to see yourself as a river, flowing through the human experience. Sometimes the rapids pick up, and sometimes they are nonexistent. Don’t try to compete with your friends and peers, for their path is different than yours. We all travel this journey at a different pace, enjoy yourself because that is really all that matters. If you value your own happiness above all else, nothing will matter. It is through understanding happiness, that we achieve the flow state. Life will pass you by if you focus on what you don’t have, rather than what you do. This isn’t to say don’t be ambitious, strive for greatness. If you fall, pick yourself back up. You have to be your own bootstraps in life, because no one else will do it for you. Cherish those who support you and remove those who do not. Life is too short to spend it being brought down by those closest to you. If you do not tend your garden, you will find that there are snakes.
Overcoming mental complacency
It takes immense courage to break out of our mental ruts. It becomes second nature for us to become complacent; life becomes a cycle of eat, sleep, work and repeat. The shadow self takes a hold and we idle until we build the courage to do something about it. If you are stuck in stagnation, do something that challenges you in a new way. Climb the mountain, kayak the river, jump off the plane (with a parachute) whatever it is you are scared of, a new life is on the other side. When we overcome our fears, we tell the universe that we are ready to move beyond that lesson. Those things no longer scare us, and we progress to the next step in our personal development. Personal power is the ability to do what you want to do, regardless of the obstacles holding you back. Once you surmount a mind block, it becomes a muscle you exercise. It gets easier with each attempt. Prevail over your mind and you can exceed any limitations you place on yourself.
