“A journey in life” Revisited

I have started blogging a few years ago with the goal of achieving a peace in mind and to truly free my thought. Well.. after a few years i can say that life isn’t much different.. I am not saying it is bad, but it is i am just more “realistic”. It is crazy to think about life and existence in the first place so having thought about our doings in life is certainly normal. I have come to the conclusion that i was, am and will always be in a constant chase of reality and identity. Even though we don’t really know what we are doing, it is more comforting to know no one else does. Hint: they don’t, even if they think they do 🙂 because no one knows, we just convince ourselves with our made up realities.

uncertainty

Is uncertainty the monster that chases us in life?.

No one knows where the truth lies where the success is and where is your next step. Sometimes we want to be certain about what we are doing but that is the true definition of not improving your life. it doesn’t matter if you are “feeling it” or not, if you know what you are doing or not.

Consistency Problem.. again

Consistency is something that we usually need to hold ourselves into and kinda appreciate when we have. It affects us positively most of the time and could make our lives much better if used in right situations. Consistency in waking up early; consistency in doing the things that we love; consistency in being with the people we appreciate the most; consistency in writing what i am writing here and to the possibilities there is no end.

You could be like me and have an issue with consistency; you forgot how you do it and you forgot what it is like to have it. The only thing that really matters here is trying and trying and trying.

Back on Track?

Am i back on track?. A question that is often asked in the transition from a low to a high. or it is possibly a way to try to convince yourself that it is that.

Life is always about hitting highs and lows as much as it can also be very confusing. a lot of people don’t have purpose and sometimes you realise that and it hits you hard. I think the defence system in the human body is also responsible for the mental state of a person. Uncontrollable reactions could be a result of a controllable action. The confusion comes when you don’t understand what is going on in your life, who you actually are and what you are used to do. A shock sometimes is needed to waken you up. The question is would you let it confuse you or would you take over from there?

Challenge your identity

As unpleasant as it might sound we are not always right. We tend to identify our paths in life according to our feelings and plan it with regard to what we think of ourselves. The problem comes in when we realize how much we give a sh*t about how the world view us and how we behave. We are limited to what our identities allow us to do or be as humans, how we react in situations and how we handle our life’s daily tasks.

 

It is not as easy as it sounds for us to break these limits and challenge our identities and how we really believe we are. But by doing that, we free ourselves from being slaves to ourselves. We can go on to achieve what we truly believe to be right or what we actually want to do with really considering failure as a problem, but part of the process.

A problem that you enjoy

It is really important to think about life as an experience and not be addicted to results. A really influential say i have heard is to choose doing what you actually enjoy suffering at. That implies that it is a problem that you enjoy the process of solving regardless of the results or what could hinder this process. our lives consists constantly of problems and we always have a choice for approaching these problems. so choose problems that you enjoy having!.

Not caring, but with a twist

I have recently been listening to an incredible audiobook that is called “The subtle art of not giving a f*ck” by Mark Manson. I believe this book to be a life-changing one in terms of the way we think about the world around us and also the way we interact with ourselves. Emotion control is a huge point that has been brought up in this book. It is actually all about what you care about, what you consider important in life. And if you have so much going on that the neglectable facts to you are important then the important becomes less important.

I always tried to write about trying to be happy, but it is more than just repeating the words and it will happen for you, as I realized. Caring about what truly matters brings happiness and it is okay for life to suck sometimes. And it is just about the journey and my “journey to success” maybe isn’t the ultimate journey i dreamt it to be.

Appreciate the good

We often forget to appreciate the good in people and life, in general. It is a case of not understanding how the world works and how the human communication functions.

We have to do meaningful things to the people who mean to us or even to every person we meet, to be remembered or just to put a smile on others. People have so much good in them but they are often discouraged by bad experiences or generally bad people, although that shouldn’t be the case. We don’t live in this world alone and it better to bring happiness wherever you go rather than not taking this extra step.

Be there for others

life is about us and who is around us and it becomes easily boring if we are living our life mainly by ourselves with no type of companionship. I think people like each others because they have something mutual in most of the cases but it is not really necessary. Being there for people when they need you the most indicates that you are a caring person. Is caring important? I would say yes we learn to have empathy and feel for others. it is not all about us even if we are the heroes of our stories which we might not be either.

Helping yourself and others

We don’t live alone in this world, so it is not all about us all the time really. it is good to think about yourself and others when it comes to interactions with others especially with in working in groups. It is good to work in groups and support each others as individuals because it all helps the group be better. You technically help yourself when you help others and care about them.
