Confidence Matters

From eileap.weebly.com - August 13, 2023 4:10 PM

William Shakespeare said, "Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt." Low self-confidence can have a paralyzing effect, just consider the following scenarios: Dating 'I will not ask him out because I am ...' - Career 'I will not apply for this job because I am ..., I will not start my business because I am ... ' - Skills I' will not try to learn French because I am ... '....

Carl Jung - Ending Your Inner Civil War (read by Alan Watts)

From www.youtube.com - July 15, 2023 5:34 PM

Alan Watts had a radio show in the 60s where he read this passage of Jung's work after Jung died. Alan Watts was a tremendous admirer or Jung and his passage really stuck out in his mind.

In this passage, which Jung read to a group of clergy, he talks about what it takes to successfully heal someone and oneself -- that one must come to terms with your own dark side, before you can accept the dark side of another.

Once this happens, which - Jung says - is a moral achievement, then you see how egoism and neurosis in yourself or something else actually LEADS to change.

"The demon of egoism is the royal road to that in-gathering that religious experience is about."

Grit or Quit

Grit or Quit | Emotional and Social Intelligence | Scoop.it
July 15, 2023 2:12 PM
Many of us have that one stubborn goal we've been trying to accomplish for weeks, months—maybe even years. Maybe it's joining the C-Suite, taking that professional development course, or improving your golf game. Goals are important. They're helpful motivational tools that can carry us to new heights. But we can also become so stuck on achieving a goal that we miss out on a variety of other things we could be doing. Perhaps you realize that your dream of becoming an executive at your organization doesn’t align with who you want to be anymore. You discover you'd actually prefer to stay in your current position and have fewer managerial responsibilities. The following questions can help you reevaluate your goals to make sure they're the right ones for you. (Phd. Susan David) https://www.linkedin.com/posts/susanadavidphd_many-of-us-have-that-one-stubborn-goal-weve-activity-7084880917650919424-OucL?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

Pavel Barta's insight:
Values Values Values - And it is our emotions that often teach us about what we care about the most in life. The next time you experience a strong emotion, instead of judging yourself whether or not you should feel that way, ask yourself 'what is this emotion telling me about me, about what I really care about? What other emotions are hidden behind this one, and what do they teach me about what is happening ... ?' Emotions can be signposts leading to greater self-awareness. Having said that, that should not mean that we should allow them to define us in terms of who we are and what we do. Often, emotions can mislead, misfire, and exaggerate! We are more than our emotions. Though it is valuable to know what we feel, we should always remain conscious of the fact that we do not need to obey - or believe in - what we feel. Learn to stay in the driving seat ... do not allow your emotions to manipulate you. Use your values and aspirations to drive your decisions, not your emotions. Clear and peaceful conscience is one of the greatest gifts that this life gives, and it is when I remain true to my personal values that I have the privilege of experiencing such a mindset.

Carl Jung - How To Own Yourself (Jungian Philosophy)

From www.youtube.com - July 19, 2023 4:43 PM

Carl Jung - How To Own Yourself (Jungian Philosophy)

Step 1 - Meet Your Shadow
Step 2 - Accept Your Shadow
Step 3 - Integrate Your Shadow

Pavel Barta's insight:
Embracing Your Shadow: A Path to Personal Growth and Fulfillment

 Introduction 

In the journey of self-discovery and personal growth, there lies a hidden and often unexplored aspect of ourselves - the shadow. The shadow represents the parts of us that we may not like, feel ashamed of, or have been rejected by society. Denying this shadow can hinder our progress and lead to unexpected outbursts. Instead, we should embrace and understand our shadow, allowing it to guide us towards becoming a more integrated and fulfilled individual. 

 1. Meet Your Shadow 

The first step in understanding the shadow is acknowledging its existence. It consists of dark, unwanted, and unpopular traits that we often push aside or try to suppress. However, denying its presence will not lead to growth; rather, it might manifest itself unexpectedly. To control the shadow, we need to get to know it better. The key lies in recognizing and accepting these aspects of ourselves. 

Projection Onto Others 

One way the shadow manifests is through projection - projecting our own weaknesses onto others. We may find ourselves harshly judging others, displaying bias or prejudice, and taking offence easily. These negative reactions often stem from unresolved issues within ourselves. To address this, we should engage in introspection and explore why we react strongly to certain situations and individuals. 

 Practical Techniques 

To gain a deeper understanding of our shadow, we can utilize various practices: 

 • Meditation: Regular meditation helps us delve into our subconscious and connect with our true selves, enabling us to identify hidden aspects that need attention. 
• Journeying: Embark on a journey of self-discovery, seeking insights and answers within your subconscious mind. 
• Drawing: Art can serve as a therapeutic outlet to express and explore your emotions and inner thoughts. 
• Self-reflection: When faced with strong reactions, ask yourself why you felt that way and what triggered such emotions. 

 2. Accept Your Shadow 

Acceptance is the key to unlocking personal growth and finding balance within ourselves. Embrace your true self, flaws, insecurities, etc.. Instead of denying these aspects, acknowledge them openly. Write down your shortcomings and confront them with a sense of self-compassion. Understanding Origins It's essential to investigate why we feel the need to hide certain aspects of ourselves or why we fear being less likable when showing vulnerability. Understanding the origins of these feelings can provide valuable insights into our behavior. 

 3. Integration for Growth 

Integration is about allowing the conscious and unconscious parts of ourselves to coexist harmoniously. Embrace your weaknesses, recognizing that they offer valuable lessons for personal growth. Ask yourself what behaviors your best self would exhibit and strive to align your actions with that ideal. 

Conclusion 

Embracing your shadow is an empowering journey of self-discovery and growth. By facing the aspects of yourself that you might have avoided or denied, you can find a newfound sense of freedom and self-assurance. Acceptance and integration of your shadow will lead to a more authentic and fulfilled life, allowing you to unlock your full potential and embrace your true self. Remember, growth often comes from embracing your weaknesses and transforming them into strengths. So, embark on this transformative journey today, and witness the growth and self-awareness that await you.

Compassion Fatigue

June 30, 2023 6:23 AM
What is often referred to as "compassion fatigue" is not caused by too much compassion for others. Rather, it tends to be caused by difficulty in setting boundaries, struggling with emotion regulation, denying ourselves the very compassion we extend to others, systems that demand the impossible, and similar. This is a crucial distinction. The remedy for "compassion fatigue" is not to reduce compassion. When we reduce compassion there is actually more - not less - likelihood that we will get burned out and experience lower wellbeing. The creation of a disconnect between us and others, and us and ourselves - our values, our humanity, our flaws - does not support a culture of emotional health.
