This document provides 30 suggestions for disrupting one's daily routine and habits in order to promote personal growth and innovation. Some of the suggestions include saying no to negativity, taking a break from social media, disconnecting from technology for 24 hours, trying a new hobby, spending a day alone, and being bold by taking small risks. The overall message is that making conscious changes to routines, even small ones, can help people stay engaged and think differently.
Yes, we are
allowed.
In the pandemic era, concepts like “security” and “control” have
become a thing of the past. They’re feelings that the lucky among
us are still able to remember, but which we’re only able to experience
to a limited extent. The first lockdown saw them evolve
into a massive cloud of longing that hung somewhere overhead.
Did they disappear into the world of transcendence? Is it because
of this that our need for spirituality in our lives has grown?
Spirituality is a world of permission. We’re allowed to say yes to
wishes, dreams and desires, to the search for a special connection
with ourselves. With our soul and with our heart. And perhaps
it’s more the looking than the finding that does us good.
Because looking involves discovering. And there is still so much
to be discovered. Spirituality means that life has a direction.
That we’re turning towards something where we can let ourselves
flourish. That’s why the new spirituality looks for places that are
genuine. Genuine in how they interact with people, with other
creatures and with nature. You can find the new spirituality within
your own four walls, on a yoga mat or a shakti acupressure mat.
You’ll find it anywhere in the world where people put the effort
into creating something from their heart and soul. A hotel, a
restaurant, a craft or an item of clothing. The new spirituality
is anywhere that has meaning. It’s the feeling of security in the
present moment that can dispel our fear of the unknown, that
allows us to let go of the need to control our lives and the world
around us. Because there’s one thing we’re not allowed to forget:
there’s no such thing as real control.
Every wondered what your life purpose is?
This 3 page report is going to help you focus your mind, and hopefully clear the fog that you might have regarding your life purpose.
You deserve to take 5 minutes to read this and get on the right path
