Friend, when you look in the mirror, do you really see YOU?
No, I'm guessing you don't... not the real you, anyway.
Let me explain...
Most of us do not really see ourselves for who we really are, in our true potential. We see the US, which has been shaped by the ideas, thoughts, and beliefs instilled in us since childhood. We view ourselves as a culmination of all our life experiences, inherited fears, and resulting in doubts and inaccurate belief systems that have been forming around us and blocking our true essence and full potential.
Ego forms in response to our painful experiences and creates a false self in an attempt to protect us from further harm. Unfortunately, we carry this ego into adulthood, where the original threats no longer exist, yet we still believe in and fear them, reacting as if they were real.
Ego creates separation from others because it is separated from your genuine nature.
I know because this used to be me. And in my 35+ years of personal development, I have met a thousand versions of myself. Beautiful souls hidden behind their life's drama and impersonated by their ego.
It is only when we look with different eyes, take the time to understand and heal the hurt, scrutinize and transform our erroneous beliefs, that we begin to pierce the armor of the façade we carry around, called our Ego.
What if you could look in the mirror and see through to your soul? What if fears were gone along with the need to protect yourself from perceived threats? What if you saw yourself for who you really are, intimately connected to your skills, talents, dreams, and callings?
What if you no longer looked to everyone else for everything you need, but instead took responsibility for your results because you recognize that you are infinitely more than you ever imagined?
How different would your life be?
It would be transformed, that's what it would be! I know because mine has been, as have the lives of many I have seen go through the personal transformation process.
Ego is all about getting - it needs to be validated, liked, affirmed, heard, seen, and so on.
Your soul, on the other hand, is self-sufficient, and it receives back the love, compassion, and care it gives to others. Your soul is self-sustaining and exists only to GIVE.
Our self-knowledge enables us to understand others and be with those who are still bound by their ego.
Compassion becomes our primary responsibility, and we walk through life open, honest, and in a joyful expression of all that we are.
This is what I want for everyone and especially for you. Life does NOT have to be so difficult, but EGO keeps it so.
When ego is eradicated, all that is left is love, and you can move forward in life and fulfill your purpose for being here. THIS is my wish for you!
I wish you love and I hope that you will do the work to reveal your true essence so that, when you look in the mirror, you'll see, with eyes wide open, the beauty, magic, and potential that was breathed into you when you were created ♥.
