Chapter 1. Discovering your best you.
The only path to discovery is love!
-let me explain.
One too many times, our society's labels have robbed us, -but even worse, they have restrained us.
"The hotter the weather the brighter the sunshine. The heavier the downpour, the more the harvest."
Are you confused? Good. I'd be surprised if you weren't. Let's hold that thought. We'll get right to it in a minute.
If we'd ask, almost every human on this planet has their own variation of what love is. If we collected all the variations of what love means, we'll see one thing burns right through them.
The proof of love.
Proof is love is Sacrifice.
On this discovery path, you'll have to love, yourself. Sacrifice effort and time.
Thing is, negative labels are very powerful. If you let them, they have the ability to redefine. It's left to us to understand these labels and leverage them.
Usually, these negative labels are correct, honestly true.
Then we remember, the hotter the weather, the brighter the sunshine. The heavier the downpour? more the harvest.
But If you're too busy nagging about the rain, you'll forget to plant- and miss out on the harvest.
We're using downpour here, to euphemize the labels.
My downpour, could be how astonishingly lazy I am. Last to get work done first to complain about it.
My harvest would take me back to the quote by one of the world's richest men.
He said, when I'm looking to take on a taking job, I ask the laziest person I know how they'll do it. That usually is the easiest way that job can be done.
You're getting the gist now. Put a little perspective into it.
We are going to make this into a project. Right here, right now.
Take an empty sheet of paper and a pen. Write out your two most detrimental vices, don't be sheepish, I have 6 at least.
Right beside these vices, you'll write the flip side to it.
Your harvest could be how your selfishness makes you unshakably independent.
Or how your loose lips makes you great with a crowd.
Your ability to discovering that new you rests on your mastery of leveraging your strengths and containing your weaknesses.
Root these newly found harvests in the pillars in your daily living. Leverage them to surround what make you, you.
It doesn't operate like the clockwork. You're bound to slip up, but every time you do, find that piece of paper you pinned to a board somewhere. Remind yourself to plant every time it rains.
