Steps to Self-Realization in the Modern World

Steps to Self-Realization in the Modern World

There comes a time in everyone’s life where they need to have the self-realization that they can do just about anything if they put their minds to it. Now, this may seem like a pipe dream for some people, but there is a strong sense of accomplishment when you realize that you can do anything, especially things that will bring you success in life. Of course, there are a lot of people out there that have a hard time gaining the self-realization they need to be the person they have always dreamt of being but can't put the effort into getting started.

Now, there are some people out there that will tell you that positive visualization and thinking will give you what you need to realize that you are a decent person and the sky is the limit. That works for a lot of people out there, the ones that have the time to sit comfortably in a dimly lit room with incense and candles meditating on the things they would like to have happen or change in their lives. So what about the rest of the population that have no dimly lit room, no incense, no candles, and no time to meditate?

The best thing you can do to find self-realization is to act positively to as many people as you possibly can during your daily routine. Yes, there are going to be those people out there that will test your limits and instead of yelling, screaming, cursing, or bashing them in the head with a stick, you will need to think on the positive side. How do you do that with those people? Simple; think of how great it is that you are not one of those people and no one wants to smack you on a regular basis.

If you can manage to make it through at least one week of thinking and acting positively towards the people around you, even the ones you would prefer not to, then there is a very good chance that the positive thinking will accumulate into the self-realization that you are actually a good person. When you start believing that you are a good person, then you will start to see good things happen to you in your life. After that, it’s just a hop, skip, and a jump over to the fact that you can do anything you put your mind to.

If you feel like you are going to be stressed out from being nice to all these people on a daily basis, then you need to find a hobby that you can release that stress with. This should be something a bit aggressive as far as your energy goes. Putting together model ships in a bottle will only aggravate you and cause you frustration at this point. Look more towards the shooting range, boxing, martial arts, or aspects that will give you a physical exhaustion point that will make you too tired to deal with other people’s attitudes. Then, you will be as happy as you have ever been and will flourish in your life.
