Tag: how to raise consciousness

When you want to succeed, there are certain things that have to change in your approach to life. You have to become comfortable with difficult situations, you have to raise your level of consciousness and improve the way you behave.
“But by finding the goodness that is already within you, and allowing that goodness to emerge…. but it can only emerge if something changes in your state of consciousness.” Oprah Winfrey

We can look at how to live a meaningful life on two different levels.
On one level it can be, “I’ve discovered my purpose. And this is the path I’m going to take” from the point of view of what you are here to do.
On another level it can be “I’ve discovered my soul purpose”, maybe through the Dan Millman book The Life You Were Born to Lead, which is who you are here to be. It means that when you come up against challenges related to your soul purpose, you’re not going to beat yourself up and say “you stupid person, you’re making the same mistakes all the time”, you’re going to recognize that, “Oh, I’m going to get these challenges because these are the areas that I’ve come here to work on. So of course, I have to be challenged in those areas, otherwise, I’m not going to complete my mission.”

The moment we incarnate we are bombarded with outside stimuli from the physical world that demand our attention and we rightly so give it to learn how to navigate this new environment to ensure our greatest chances for survival. However, it is rare that we are taught that this is not the only place to get your cues in life from. Sure, we often get the good old generic lessons passed down to us like, “always trust your gut” or “follow your heart”, but these cookie-cutter conversation pieces are rarely ever more deeply explored even though they carry some serious hidden gem insights. And this must lead us to wonder are they really understood and communicated from one generation to the next on what it really means to do either?
