Hey Henrik!

This is a great piece!

I had a paradigm shift when you said “I’m not my thoughts, I’m an observer”

I just want to add that further evidence to this is that our thoughts are actually a combination of our memories from the subconscious mind.

And since we’re creating ourselves everyday and NOT the combination of our past events, I believe you made an EXCELLENT POINT Henrik!

THANK YOU!

Interesting post Henrik. One I often find myself guilty of is not committing wholly or taking action with the best I have got. This way is doomed to failure. One should either take action or not take at all.

I have been guilty of all of the above but #2 really resonates today.

“A useful way to reframe a situation is to ask yourself: what is awesome about this situation?”

My upstairs neighbors are moving in above me. Their music is pounding. What’s awesome about that? It’s probably a sign that I need to get out of my apartment.

Thank you Henrik!

The courage…that is the big question. People can think of many things what they want, how they gonna get it, but the first step is to overcome the ‘hesitation’, ‘procrastination’, ‘fearful’ and all sorts of negative barriers.

I think people around eg family and friends, although sometimes the society have great impact/influence to how our take the first step getting what we want, hence change our perception about surroundings and our expectations..

It is complex. I believe each one of us related to each other and play huge role in other’s life. Human relationship is not only between us and our family/friends. But also everybody across the ocean, who we never know.

I like your blog

The one of those that causes me the most grief is listening to others opinions. After all, we all want approval from those around us. Fortunately I learned several years back that I only need to please myself and that others are not always going to approve.

As I always say: Don’t share your goals with trolls (little evil things that live under bridges) . . .

Interesting post. I think the 5 points above can be affected by how you handle your “energy”. Work at your energy so that it remains constant throughout the day and doesn’t get affected by outside forces like bad thoughts or negative emotions. This is why I recommend people adapt a meditation practice for the purposes of cultivating their energy. To have an enduring temple, start by building a sturdy foundation.
