This clip by Nick Vujicic on seeing possibilities, and aknowledging selfworth, brings tears to my eyes and chills down my spine. It puts a little bit of perspective into how importante thoughts about myself is, and how I’m able to reach my goals if I belive in myself. See it, then reflect on your own life! Wonderfull :)
How you feel and think about yourself is crucial to how you interpret the world around, and which answers you listen to. I have experienced this firsthand, and know how destructive and inhibitory low self-esteem can be. For a really long time I was hiding behind different masks, depending on what I thought my surroundings expected of me. A lot of times I didn’t even know I was hiding. It was subconscious actions, created by my low self-esteem. It made me emphasize the signs in my surroundings that supported my self judgment. Which means that when any of my bad thoughts about myself were enforced from the answers I got around, I saw it as confirmations of what I already “knew”.
What I have realized though is that I can’t search for confirmation outward, because as John Mayer, so truly, says it; “the answers you get depends on who you ask”. And only I can create my truths. I’m the one that has to strengthen and support myself. This is an ongoing process, but now I at least know which answers to listen to ;)
Beautiful and soulful picture

What I am
What I am, I think
What I think, I create
Creation depends on what I think
What I think depends on who I am
I am my soul, and how I feel about impressions i get.
Impressions depend on our surroundings, the daily environment
I think we can choose our impressions, our environment, and how we feel about them.
Feelings are the language of the soul.
If you wish to know if something is true/right for yourself or not,
try sense how you feel about it deep deep down inside
If things doesn’t feel right, try change your impressions.
turn off the crap on TV
Identify the people that do you good
dry out the negatives, and fill the open space with positives.
words spoken, written or sung.
energy, laughter, love
and by all means let love in
take care of yourself
the choice is yours
so smile
we are all precious

Attitude is everything

Watching a TV program about British teenagers going to Africa to experience and participate in how coffee is grown, made me think about how we choose our attitude. Coffee is something that we take for granted in my part of the world, but the work to produce it is hard, the payment minimal, and none of the Brites were used to any of it. All of them had to participate to support themselves as a group, to pay for food and rent. The teens had different attitudes both towards the team and in commitment to the work. It was fascinating to see what effect their individual attitudes made on the whole group, and how the positive ones both learned and grew more. It was also exciting to see how, in time, they pulled the others forward as well. The way they grew made me think about the way we live, and how we can use positive attitude and cooperation to get wherever we want. We also get much happier when we choose to be positive.
I feel privileged to live in a part of the world where I have the freedom to choose what to do with my future, and I intend to work for happiness, both for myself and my suroundings!
Seeing…
I see you.
I want to see you.
And i want to help you,
help yourself!
These lines are carved like stone in my mind. Do they always apply for myself though? I like to think that I see myself, most of the time, in the way I search the deeps of my own inner self, to constantly move forward. But its a lot easier to look at other people, and I know that I hide some things, sometimes even from myself. The truth of it is that I get scared, scared of what I’ll find if I really look. Scared of what my future beholds. I’m afraid I won’t be good enough to fulfill my dreams. For what and why do I let these things scare me? First of all I don’t know what the future has in store for me, and I don’t even have clear thoughts of what I want to make a living from, except from the fact that I want to work with people. I don’t have all the answers, and I don’t need them right now. I do know though, that if I let my fear guide me I might miss out on the biggest adventures, and that I don’t want, for sure!
Young birds fly with wings that are undeveloped, and so can I… As long as I know my next step, I have no need to see the bigger picture just yet! Let me therefor go forward with love as my guideline, love for myself and my life.
The fence

I sometimes find myself wondering about what makes people successful. I Wish I will make it in some way, uncertain what I have to bring to the table, just knowing that I want to make a difference in working with people. I put myself behind a self-made fence, where I make my own limitations based on fear.
I have to let myself find my way and my own worth, and believe in myself enough to not let fear guide me. When doubt sneaks in it tends to be quite overpowering, like a fence that keeps me “in place”.Why do we create barriers that hold us back from our own development? We can blame everything and everyone else, for setting limitations for us, but the truth is that only you and me really can put a stop to ourselves. It is also only we who can climb over the fence, to grasp what is waiting for the other side. I guess that the most successful people are the ones that dear to live their lives in fulfillment of their own dreams, without hiding behind a fence of self-declared limits. So how can I manage to stay in a state of mind that pushes me the direction I want, and makes me climb the fence, and explore the unknown on the other side. I think the first step is to acknowledge my own thoughts and feelings, also the inhibitory ones, before I decide which ones I want to lead me, and then go for it, even if its scary at first.
tumblrbot asked: WHERE WOULD YOU MOST LIKE TO VISIT ON YOUR PLANET?
I would like to see as much of the world as possible before my limited stay here is done, and the next place i want to and am going to visit is New York ;)
