Most of the time, do we even think, or we just relay on our “intuition”, emotions, reviewing past memories and experiences? A question someone could easily ask himself, since how easily we are satisfied today by adopting someone else’s opinion and how easily dogmatic beliefs are applied, despite all the knowledge and information available to everyone. The advertising industry has us well figured out, we buy, wish and desire what they want, we set our goals by our closest society’s conventional expectations and have despite all the technology we have developed, less and less time for ourselves and for executing our inner callings. We all like to call ourselves unique and one of a kind, despite the fact that we have 99.9% of our DNA in common, that we live by the same society standards and sometimes even dare to deny any creativity in us.. And anyone that crosses the line, expresses his own creativity, doubt the society codes, tries to create a life by his own image, and escapes the barriers of “short-sighted preservation and hedonism” we are used to daily shape our lives around, is instantly labeled as weird, a freak, or anything similar.. But who’s the real freak here..? Someone who vegetatively conforms to the perceived reality, goes by the flow and without any solid criticism does what “he’s told to”, or someone who knows there’s more to life, and tries to get the best out of himself, despite the possible failures and criticisms?

Do you really believe that free market cares about the ethical and environmental consequences it causes? Of course it does as long as it is profitable, but when the profit disappears of the plate, there is only the integrity of social andenvironmental sense of the involved left for us to count on. And what about the government..? Do you think it has the power to successfully direct huge corporations towards our well-being and life-quality improvements? Not any more, at least not the big ones and to the extend desired, as many international corporations are way larger economies as our own for example (Slovenia, http://www.corporations.org/system/top100.html) and have therefore vast influence on all economic movement on the specified territory.
Period.
I mean, really.. All the experiences gained, all the knowledge gathered, all the love recieved and given away, all the challenges solved and all new people met every day, can make quite a good bargain for all the effort invested, don’t they? Unfortunatelly many of us take all of this as something most trivial and are therefore unable to embrace all the joys life fills us with day by day, while at the same time they are daydreaming of some unrealistic perfect situations with no real intention ever to happen. And even if they do, of what use would that be? The same person would most likely have other goals and different dreams, at that time, and would again not even be aware of the fortune they were blessed with.. But don’t get me wrong – I still think imagination and big goals are of great importance for our personal and professional growth, but should only be used as a kind of “mental tools” and not as the main principle of how we engage with life.
Habits are an extremely powerful tool, when used right, but one of the greatest curses, when out of our control. They could be described as a kind of a way, how our subconsciousness helps us with the pursuit of our goals.
How does this process work?
Through our thinking and repetitive activities, we reprogram our subconscious mind to adopt that kind of behavior and execute it at the littlest effort invested possible. If we take Psycho-Cybernetics as a reference, it says that about three week to a month are required for this new attribute to domesticate itself in your mind.
Love is one of the greatest life’s pleasures… So don’t you ever dare to endanger its unselfish giving, by expecting, that it alone will bring happiness into your life.
