Reaching The Higher Self
By: Steve Pilkington

How do you define success for this stage in your life?

However you define the term it should certainly lead one to a
higher quality of life as well as a higher level of being. We are
not here to accumulate more and more, but we are here to
evolve and learn and grow. Unfortunately, some are held back
from self evolution by the demons of anger, envy, loneliness,
fear, guilt and others. These are demons of the mind that must
dealt with before one can evolve. In other words there is a
higher as well as a lower self.

We reach this higher self by being totally honest and by asking
the hard questions about our lives. Without being ruthlessly
honest nothing will change and by being honest with ourselves
everything can change.

This is not to deny or ignore that real problems such as anxiety,
depression, loneliness, marital strife, drug and alcohol problems,
etc. And we may have been victimized by such. So, the
question becomes, "how long am I going to be a victim?" You
have a choice. You can change jobs, mates or locations but
nothing will actually change until you take charge of your life!

All of us have the capacity to rise above or transcend our human
experiences. Most people won't because suffering (as odd as
this sounds) becomes too comfortable and it's the only thing we
know.

By being honest with ourselves and asking the hard questions of
life we can evolve to a higher level of awareness, a level that
most are not even aware exist.

Living in Fear!
by Joseph Ghabi

As we are aware, our relationships are that bigger part of our life,
and our own personal growth. Our growth starts basically from our
relationships. Remember when we were young looking up to our parents,
or to our older brothers or sisters, sometimes envying them for being
older, or just trying to understand them. But the best of all was
trying to build up our relationship with them.

From that point on our own personal growth began. This initial
growth, helped to direct us towards different directions in life,
according to the way we did handle those early growth experiences.

I have spoken before about how our ego and pride plays part in our
relationships. This time, we will look at another area that can
really hit us hard when we are in a relationship, and that is fear
and selflessness.

What is fear? Fear can be defined in many different ways, but we will
look at fear in a relationship as our concern today.

Fear, is defined by two different aspects of our relationships. As I
see it today, it is the fear of commitment and the fear of the other
person in a relationship. Fear of commitment in a relationship can
happen to the best of us when we have had one, or several, tough
relationships or tough times growing up in this lifetime. That can
help to keep that fear alive.

Why do we keep carrying around that fear? Very simple - many times we
don't know any better, and other times we are just afraid to be
vulnerable, or to allow ourselves to open up. That fear can only
bring unhappiness in the end.

Fear of the other person in the relationship is just as tough as that
first fear but we need, and it is very important, to be honest with
ourselves and to ask the question "Why are we afraid of our partner?"
Why have we allowed ourselves to be stuck in that relationship for so
long? What is it that created this fear in us? Why have we allowed it
to go that far in the first place? Asking that, and many other good
questions that need to be addressed until we click in with the
answer.

Do not disqualify any answer because that is what most of us do in
the first place. Our intuition seems to be the last thing we trust.
Just learn to trust that inner voice of yours. Fear can only be
resolved by building up our own self-confidence. Your partner, in
this case, probably knows that you fear him or her and may take
advantage of this!

From my angle, I see again that fear lies in the way that we grew up
and what we really need to look at is our own level of self-
confidence. Sometimes we have been abused as a child and our self-
esteem is tarnished. I wrote on these subjects before, but what we
need to tackle now is on how we have chosen to build up our self-
confidence and self-esteem. This is a very important start.

To be able to accomplish this you need to go back to whatever age you
were when that problem started to occur. Look at it as if you were
seeing yourself, and your life, as a movie in front of you. Write
down everything you see, and start to listen to the way you talk
today. Is there a common pattern? You should see something
reoccurring over time and even in how you experience your
relationships today. You will probably see that those patterns are
still there, as if it were the first time it happened some ten,
fifteen or twenty years ago. It is great if you can identify these
patterns in your life that keep repeating, in a progressive way, time
after time, or from one relationship to another. Then you will know
from where you will need to begin, and fix what you have identified
as needing fixing.

Many times we say "but I can't see it yet". After time has
passed,
read all of the writing that you did earlier as a child growing up.
Reading it later may help you to see the patterns, I guarantee that!
BUT, there is one thing that you might or might not see throughout
the years, and that is the negative attitude you may have about
yourself, and your life, and that has to change too. If you master
your attitude, then you are almost guaranteed that over eighty
percent of your problem is solved. Think about it for a moment
please…

I learned from my own healing and working with my guides, and healing
doctors, that there is no cure until it is handled at the root of the
problem. Not just by the symptoms of today's problems, or else
nothing (or a very little amount) will change. New problems will
surface later on because the understanding of the early stage of the
problem hasn't been identified and this may prevent us from being
provided with the answer to a happier existence. It really does not
matter why things happened in the first place, as long as we learn to
accept our unfortunate situation. Forgive, bless it, and let it go.
It won't take a lifetime for things to change in your life from
that
point on. That's from my own personal experiences.

Sometimes, this process is very hard and painful to go through. Your
old life experiences, and your energy level, might go to the bottom,
but not as long as you know why you are doing it in the first place.
It's not a long process but two important factors are required
YOU
being involved in the first place. It is your life after all, and
your own personal responsibility. Without those two ingredients we
will keep running in a circle.

As you see when you properly handle the first stage of the problem,
all of the symptoms or hurdles will fall and disappear instantly
without even realizing it, because it is no longer important to your
mind, heart and soul. It has been solved!

After all, the worse thing any Soul has to endure is living in fear,
all of their life, especially while next to their partner, and the
people who they love.
Enjoy your relationships with the people you love, and cherish it for
all that it's worth, because life is worth living and it should
be in
harmony.
