Self improvement can be seen in clearer terms as connecting to an inner voice or inner self. This means the need to understand the self – and by doing so, gain awareness on all levels – Spiritual, Mental, Emotional and Physical.
This also involves becoming more aware of one’s self and giving of yourself a more clearly defined identity.
Developing increased self awareness means that you are able to see yourself as you really are and this includes the dark side to yourself. By allowing yourself to honestly consider all aspects of yourself, you are able to gain self acceptance which allows for greater growth and further self development.
You function as cause, decide and create for yourself; when as effect, you react, you are not separate from the creator, you reflect the infinite intelligence.
In the book of Genesis, it is written “And God proceeded to create the man in His image, in God’s image he created him; male and female he created them” (Genesis
Though the passage speaks of the male transcendent qualities, indeed the very nature, the ONE, those that are beyond form.
You must look within to understand yourself; you reflect in every detail the characteristics of Omniscience, Omnipotence, and Omnipresence that epitomize the ONE.
Everything that manifests in your outer life is created by the assumptions and beliefs of your inner self.
In most cases, as an individual caught in the loop in which you believe external events and circumstances control your life. You accept the premise mandated by other circumstances and extent of existence. This action forms a seemingly endless cycle until broken by a more powerful belief. You must be in unity with the Universe within.
The stability you seek within yourself is achieved only when you understand the state of consciousness that stimulates inner unity and cooperation, then strive to live within this state.
This is the goal of self-discovery, a state that many claim to have achieved, but few actually have this essential ingredient that propels self to the level of master of love.
Love is here and now – with you. It is the glue that unites and supports all that happens in the world and in the lives of everything being, in that it defines the singularity of purpose and ways of life.
Love is an expression of unity. Most people believe love is an emotion, a feeling. In many ways, this identifies characteristics of this property of the infinite intelligence. But beyond what you experience as love from human state of consciousness, love is a force, an energy field, a vibration, different from the emotion that human consciousness attributes to it. You are the source of love and can tap its enormous power, the power of the Universe, only when your conscious vibration by choice of thoughts, is to love. Love is a pure force, energy directed equally into all thoughts, positive and negative.
Since you are able to gain awareness, you are able to give yourself more choices and also a greater level of control over actions and behaviour. This prevents you from making decision based on automatic reactive behaviour and you are then more able to make specific choices.
Once you have established “choice behaviour”, greater growth can be experienced and a happy, balanced life can be achieved. This gives you a more centered feeling and you are able to feel connected. This can empower you in different ways, connecting to your “inner” self can be achieved through various techniques.
As you do more things and see more things happen, you are inclined to believe more in building a dynamic purpose in your personal success; you must recognize this key. To succeed in life you build a dynamic purpose. Purpose is ideal that you seek.
GOALSETTING
Learn to set goals, they are your life. Take the time to consider your lifetime goals, particularly the six aspects of your life. Write them down, develop an inner image of your goal in each area. You must think seriously about what you want and to accept responsibility for what you get. Do not let previous patterns, of so called failure stop you from trying again what you may have as failure was probably the creator’s way of saying you need more information. So go get it.
These six aspects to focus are:
Spiritual: Set this goal in the form of things you are going to actually read or practice. For example, how many times you intend to read the Bible or Holy book and meditate on the teachings written? How often do you need to pray daily? Remember to reconcile all other goals with your spiritual goals.
Physical: Reconcile your goals by relating them to your commitment to serve the infinite intelligence in its work. These goals can be physical exercises, weight targets, whatever you choose it to be. For instance, you can seek to remain healthy to serve the maker of all life better.
Personal: Do not forget yourself and that you need to achieve personal fulfillment. Does writing, preaching, singing, painting, acting, gardening, dancing, and the like fulfill an inner need for expression? If so, see yourself doing it and taking action. Every time an idea comes to you, relate it to your spiritual aim.
Professional: School, training; you name it, then do it. If you can not take big steps in this or any other direction at least take small steps. Determine how it relates to your spiritual goals.
Financial: What are you trying to achieve? What do you need to live as you would like? Do not be afraid to ask for what you want. Write a clear concise amount of money you tend to acquire, name the time limit for the money for its acquisition, and state what you intend to give in return for the money, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to accumulate it. Read your written statement aloud three times daily. Once after rising in the morning, once during mid-day and lastly before retiring at night.
