How many times have you wanted to do something but feared the thought of what others would think if you did? It's ok because we've all felt this feeling time and time again. You're feeling these emotions of fear because of conditioning from a combination of our upbringing and the things we see and hear around us.
It's time for you to follow your intuition and do what makes you happy and not worry about others and what other humans want you to do.
The first step to you being free is to understand that your loyalty is only tied to God and God only. Once you approach life from this scope, things become much easier for you with your decision making.
You have no loyalty to any human on this earth and yes, this does include your parents. It also includes your bosses at work and your family members.
This doesn't mean to not listen to them as we should always show respect and kindness to one another. At the same time, you should always do the things that make you happy and not worry about how they view it or what they want you to do.
Live for yourself and God only.
This is a great start to becoming free because when this logic is applied, you'll know and feel what you should do in every moment of your life. Understand that God is Perfect and because God is in you, you're perfect. You don't make mistakes and when things happen that you don't understand, it's a blessing that has yet to be realized.
Your thoughts of shame, guilt, anxiety and depression will all fade in time as you turn to God within yourself. Your mind will essentially become free as you'll begin to do the things that you want to do and not what others want you to do.
Who cares how you will look doing something new or facing new challenges or obstacles of difficulty. God comes from a position of love and encouragement to chase your dreams and enjoy this world for what it is. The saying, "Have fun because life is too short..." is cliche but extremely true. This is what God wants from you as long as it comes from a position of love and kindness, not hate.
Sin is all around us and nearly impossible to be avoidable. This is the truth but I'm here to tell you that you don't have to participate in any of it.
If you do partake in sin, understand that it's ok and you're human. Forgive yourself and understand that things happen. Don't waste time in your thoughts and thinking of all your regrets and bad things you've done or doing. Those barriers is what leads to your mind not being free. The key is to stay positive and loving in your thoughts and move on while working towards recognizing the patterns that led to your sinful behavior. Once you see those patterns, break them.
For example, I struggle with my anger at times. God has shown me that the more time I spend on social media, hate becomes filled in my heart. Social media can be extremely negative, dark, and desensitizing at times without us realizing it. The more I paid attention to the comments, the more I realized those comments and videos became apart of me subconsciously and contributed to my anger. Once I put my phone down more and deleted social media, controlling my anger became much easier and freed my mind of those feelings.
We're not here to tell you to not be on social media as it can also offer positivity as well. What I'm here to tell you is that be mindful and pay attention to what you're seeing and reading. If you see a pattern of hate or separation (like politics), remove yourself from it and limit your time on it. Your mind will become free.
Along with Social Media, apply this logic to vices such as the media that you're watching on TV, music, alcohol, drugs, negative or hurtful friends/family groups etc...
We understand that these things can be fun distractions at time. With that said, in order to free your mind, you need to eliminate or limit your time with these items as much as you can and instead shift to more positive vices.
For example, instead of watching movies that involve extreme blood ,violence or sex, switch to more heartful viewings and shows that display messages of love and unity. When you do this, you'll notice that you will become more kind, sweet, and loving to the people around you.
The truth of the matter is that none of us are invincible from being conditioned by the things we see, hear, and watch. Once you're truthful to yourself about this, you'll be more mindful of the things that are around you which will lead you to freedom within your choices and thoughts.
Hold yourself accountable and keep your faith strong with God and God only and this world will open up to you in ways that I can't explain with words.
It's time to free yourself and take control.
We love you, now get started!
