1802 || learning to love future me

It takes time to get comfortable in unfamiliar frequencies, but once you do, you may find yourself more comfortable than you imagined you could be.

Success is a compounding byproduct of motion in the direction of your dreams.

Engaging in behaviors you admire will protect you from the feelings you're avoiding.

Core questions to ask yourself:

What's going on? What are you trying to address? is there something specific you'd like to accomplish? or integrate more or less of into your life? Is there anything you know you need to change but have been resisting or avoiding? What is a recurring (core) issue that pops up in your life?

What does my current daily life look like? If it's inconsistent or your daily routine varies from time to time, outline a few "typical" days. Set alarms for every 15-60 minutes to check ins to see where your time is actually goes.

What brings you happiness or makes you feel alive or connected to humanity? Brain dump. Include minor things.

BRAIN DUMP:

Skills (you have currently): What am I good at?

Resources (you have currently): What are some of the good things in my life?

Problems (you have currently): What are the not so good things in my life?

Can any of the resources or skills you currently posses help you solve or cope with the problems?

What would you say to a loved one with the same problem?

How would an optimist approach this situation?

1849 || you are what you avoid

You are not only what you consciously intend. You are also what you habitually avoid, deny, and disown. The shadow is not your enemy, and it is not your identity. It is the place where refused life ac...

1848 || when intentions aren't enough

You're not broken, you're human. And being human is often difficult and contradictory work. Shadow work is grounded in deep internal reflection, not self-optimization. "Jung describes the shadow as co...

1847 || being the "good guy" vs. becoming the villain

1847 || become the villain

One thing I appreciate about the villain archetype is the confidence it implies. Darth Vader isn’t gonna procrastinate because he is too tired or lacks the confidence to start. Bad guys don’t tend to ...

1846 || integrate the shadows

We all love the idea of a redemption arc. We love the idea of hitting rock bottom and bouncing up and transforming into a confident, powerful badass permanently. As humans, we tend to see things in bl...

1845 || rock bottom is part of the healing journey

Part of me wants to beat a bitch's ass and part of me wants to shut down completely. This conflict makes us feel bad for feeling bad. We have to learn how to integrate these conflicting feelings. Ment...

1844 || the healing journey

The healing journey is not linear and it exists in many forms. The healing journey outlined by the Buddhist Library is:HURT. FEAR OR ANGER. FEAR AND ANGER GIVE RISE TO CONFLICTS. LOSS OF LOVE FOR S...

1843 || the hero vs heroine's journey

Note: When I speak of women vs. men in this context I don’t do it to reinforce the binary. I don’t believe in the binary, but because we grew up and now exist in a society that reinforces the binary a...
