Lifestyle Alchemy With Fiona J’s Post

Self discovery and enlightenment can cause issues with family. People think differently. Many people are living unconsciously. They may come across as negative. It may cause issues as you progress through to being a professional, but to truly reach your potential you need to have courage. Believe in YOU. #selfbelief #courage #acceptance #highperformance #enlightenment #selfdiscovery

On self-acceptance If you can’t accept your house, you have the option to move. If you can’t accept your spouse, it gets really complicated. But, maybe, just maybe you can both part ways to part ways and start fresh. But, if you can’t accept yourself, there’s no escape—no new scenery or relationship can fix that. Self-acceptance is the foundation for everything; without it, we’re forever running, endlessly searching. True freedom begins when you stop trying to flee from yourself. Accepting yourself doesn’t mean approving of or justifying every flaw—it means recognizing them and embracing yourself, imperfections included. It means taking responsibility for your intentions, words, and actions. So, ask yourself: What part of me am I still running from, and what would change if I embraced it instead?

The Chains of Fear: A Conversation with Yourself What if I told you the only thing holding you back is the fear you’ve built yourself? Not failure, not others—just the weight of their opinions you’ve chosen to carry. Isn’t it time to let it go? Have you ever wondered why you hold back? Why you don’t speak up, chase your dreams, or take that leap you’ve always thought about? What’s stopping you? “Maybe I’m scared of failing,” you might say. But is it failure you’re afraid of, or is it what people will say if you fail? “Okay, maybe it’s that. I don’t want to be judged.” Fair enough. But think about this—whose judgment really matters? The people who care about you, or the ones who never tried anything themselves? “I guess... I’m letting others define me.” Exactly. Jean-Paul Sartre, the philosopher, once said we’re “condemned to be free.” It means no one else gets to decide who we are or what we do. It’s scary because it means you’re responsible for your choices—but it’s also empowering. “So, I’m free, but I’m scared of that freedom?” Yes. And that fear makes you give others power over your life. But what if you didn’t? What if you stopped waiting for approval or worrying about what people think? “That sounds freeing, but also hard.” It is. Freedom means stepping into discomfort. It means trusting yourself even when others doubt you. But think about it—are the chains you’re living in now really easier? “No, they’re exhausting.” Then why not let go? Why not take control? People will always have opinions, but they don’t define you. Only you can do that. “So... I just start?” Yes. Take the first step. Speak up. Chase that dream. You’re stronger than you think, and the world needs your story—not the version others want for you. “Alright. Let’s break some chains.” Let’s do it. The only thing standing in your way is you. The world is waiting for you to step into your freedom. Are you ready?

Prove to me that they are! Have you checked yours to see? Just because a thought has been 'thunk' many times, does not make it any more valid or factual than a new thought. What I notice is that the more I challenge thoughts, my own and clients', they rarely have any factual evidence behind them. They usually have a heap of speculation and perspective, but no facts. So why do we listen to them? Why give them so much attention? And why are they let in charge of our lives? Thoughts are not facts, so do not treat then as such. #confidence #confidencecoach #happiness #mindfulliving #courage #courageousliving #evolveconfidence

"𝐎𝐧 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 Amid scrutiny, under the unwavering gaze of doubters, lies an unshakable spirit— a fortitude that stands firm throughout the waves of judgment. For those who walk a path paved in the foundation of their authentic selves, the journey is not without its hurdles. Throughout life, we may find ourselves cast out by others who seem steadfast in their commitment to misconstrued intentions and projecting their unfounded beliefs. These wayfarers are often the visionaries, the eccentrics, the round pegs in the square holes. They are the ones who dance to an internal rhythm unheard by others, who see the world not as it is, but as it could be. Their reality is woven from strands of truth, passion, and a profound sense of purpose — a purpose that transcends the limitations imposed upon them by the narrow views of others. To be misunderstood by those around you is disheartening, but it is a testament to the individual's uniqueness in a world that clings to the comfort of conformity. There are people who will never bother to look beyond their preconceived notions, and who choose to reside within the confines of their own limited perspectives. They cast their shadows of doubt, cloaking the individual's true light, but only for as long as one allows it to linger. For the individual who embraces their authenticity, these shadows are ephemeral. With their inner compass to guide them, they manifest their journey with resilience, using their personal experiences as stones to skip across the challenging waters of life. They construct their reality from dreams and determination, creating a garden of possibilities where others see only barren soil. Living in one's purpose is an act of rebellion in a world that often demands submission to its whims. It is a statement of defiance, an assertion that one's existence is not to be determined by the court of public opinion, but rather authored by one's own hand. This resolve to remain true to oneself is the key to unlocking a reality brimming with abundance — not just of opportunities, but of joy, fulfillment, and the realization of one's potential. To those who are well acquainted with the sting of perpetual judgment and doubt, know this: your journey warrants no external validation. The horizon is full of promise, and every step taken in the direction of your dreams is a victory in its own right. Stand steadfast, even amongst the torrent of disparagement, for your path is yours alone to forge. And in your unwavering commitment to your authentic self, you not only find your purpose — you become a beacon of hope for others who have yet to break free from the shackles of other expectations. - Anon" I found it. 😁 Beautifully written!

The Journey of Human Nature: A Tale of Transformation In the vast tapestry of human existence, certain truths, often encapsulated in aphorisms, guide our understanding of the world. These succinct statements, though seemingly immaterial in their brevity, hold profound wisdom. They remind us that even the most rudimentary aspects of life can offer deep insights. Consider the journey of reconciliation. To reconcile with someone or something is not merely to forgive but to understand and accept. This process is essential, especially in the aftermath of a cataclysm, whether it be a personal tragedy or a global disaster. Such events have the power to morph our perceptions and beliefs, challenging us to adapt and grow. However, the path to reconciliation is fraught with challenges. Trust, once betrayed, is difficult to restore. Betrayal leaves scars that run deep, often leading individuals to question their core beliefs. In such times, it is crucial to remember the cardinal virtues that anchor us. These virtues, like honesty and integrity, serve as guiding stars in the tumultuous sea of emotions. Yet, not everyone navigates this journey with grace. The misanthrope, for instance, views humanity with contempt. Their dispassionate outlook on life is a defense mechanism, a way to shield themselves from further pain. But even the most hardened hearts can change. With assiduous effort, one can cultivate a cornucopia of positive experiences and relationships. Life, however, is fickle. It is ever-changing, unpredictable, and often beyond our control. This fickleness can lead to feelings of disillusionment and despair. But it is in these moments of uncertainty that our true character is tested. A dispassionate approach, while seemingly cold, can offer clarity and perspective. It allows us to assess situations objectively, without the cloud of emotions. In the end, what matters is not the accolades or the creditable achievements we amass but the relationships we build and the lives we touch. True success lies in our ability to navigate the complexities of human nature with grace and compassion. It is about finding balance amidst chaos, understanding amidst confusion, and love amidst hate. The journey of human nature is a continuous process of learning and growth. It is a testament to our resilience and adaptability. As we traverse this path, let us remember the wisdom of aphorisms, the importance of reconciliation, and the power of virtues. Let us strive to be better, not just for ourselves but for the world around us. For in the end, it is our actions, not our words, that define us.

THE POWER OF ORIGINALITY Oftentimes it's so easy for us to go with the flow of things as opposed to trying to make that difference because of the fear of coming across as "the odd one out".. However it's important to note that we're all individuals in this life, which means that our journeys are different and so is our calling. Therefore copying someone's life or comparing your life to another person's life is the greatest recipe for disaster...and it's so sad that people do these things obliviously,they don't even realise it and that's how they miss their calling... There's a saying that in the business of being who you truly are "truthfulness comes first". You can't be anything solid without excavating deeper to find out if this is truly what you should be doing.. No matter what you're doing in life make sure you're not a CONFUSED PERSON,and if you are you can take Time out to figure yourself out. If you don't know who you are,where you come from,where you're going,where you are in your life's journey and what your assignment is from God,Sorry but you're confused. These are the people who always find themselves in the wrong stories, always coveting what someone else has, always running after someone else's spouse or career opportunity,always jealously talking down on other people to Glorify themselves. They never have their own boundaries or life's manual to follow but it's always about other people,basically just being a photocopy when they're actually meant to be an original,all this is because deep down inside they don't even know where they belong. The sad thing about being confused is that these people don't only confuse their own life,but they also go ahead to confuse other people's lives...Be quick to notice and checkmate them so that they don't carry you along into their confusion. There's nothing like a person who has found him/herself, someone who knows the way to and the way not to, someone who knows when to say NO,these group of people exude a powerful confidence that breeds success because the foundation of their confidence is grounded on the truth,when they talk people listen because they say it with an unstoppable strength and wealth of experience. SO HOW DO YOU BECOME THE ORIGINAL PIECE THAT YOU WERE MEANT TO BE? First of all you need to understand that it begins and ends with you, You didn't come to this world by accident,you came to fulfill an assignment so ask questions,exhume histories and patterns. Find out from God what he wants you to do on earth by praying or you can even add fasting to it just to get the revelation you need to fulfill your purpose and when you do, develop it and be patient enough to wait for it's manifestation. What's most beautiful about this quality of life is that THE LAW OF ATTRACTION BEGINS TO WORK for you,You'll start attracting like-minded purpose driven people like your self and dream supporters. The SWOT and PESTLE analysis also helps. Don't be another failure story SHALOM!

How do we justify our skewed selfish desires? (1 Samuel 20) There’s a big lesson of doing our due diligence when confronted with shocking news (or really any news!) And I think that’s definitely an important characteristic from Johnathan I want to take away, and I talked about this morning… (20:1-34) But, there was one line today that really stuck out to me, and it of course comes from Saul: “As long as the son of Jesse lives on this earth, neither you nor your kingdom will be established.” (20:31) This could be read a couple different ways: as a threat or as a justification. I, at least this morning, read it as the latter… Saul justifying his action as a “selfless” notion. But it just oozes of hypocrisy, since he insults Johnathan immediately before this line AND then immediately tries to kill Johnathan with a spear! And it just goes to show how we can be so narrow minded, and obsessive in our own selfish desires that we will warp it to be “for the greater good”. “It’s really for YOUUUUU I have to do all this…” And then our actions reflect the complete opposite. It goes to show how jealousy, and envy and pride can truly warp our mind and perspective from right and wrong. And although I’ve never physically thrown a spear at someone, I have no doubt that I have thrown emotion spears or done other actions out of self righteousness for the good of others…. How about you? Have you let your own obsession on your definition of success warp your character and actions? Join me at 5:30am EST, to take one simple step a day and grow closer to God.
