Self-sabotage is actually an act of Love and self-fortification. ย 

I think that on some level, as human’s, we’re addicted to pain and struggle. Itโ€™s so hard to get to the point where you reject where you are. Especially when you’ve fallen so low because you took ‘the wrong path‘.  

But falling is part of life. You do it, because you already know how to get back up. I think, we just enjoy the journey of overcoming. Because, finding ways of expanding and breaking through stuff is what we enjoy most.

There are no wrong paths though, because the man who has to hike the mountain from the bottom again gets stronger legs and gets to see the beautiful scenary again from a wiser perspective.

We hate it, we hate it, we hate it, because it feels so painful. BUT! That pain is what pushes us to search for answers, it’s what pushes us to become wise. And, don’t we just absolutely Love to share our hard-earned wisdom?

When we feel we’ve somehow obliterated all our hard work, and we absolutely hate ourselves for having taken the wrong turn. It means that with all the hard work we’ve done, we’ve somehow managed to forget to Love ourselves.

Starting again, even if it seems like the absolute end of the world, is actually a chance to be more aligned and more loving with ourselfs this time.

Here’s the trick to this:

  • Accept where you are and take inventory(what do I have? what am I capable of? ‘How bad is it? How can I repair the current state of affairs?’, what do I know?…)
  • Once you’ve accepted where you are and what’s what. And you’ve listed what’s what. You can start to improve yourself by being loving and patient with yourself. See it as a challege, not a problem.
  • Make a clear goal regarding your current struggle and then start chipping away at your ‘mountain’ of work again. Before you know it, you’ll be back near where you were.
  • Cut off from ‘comparison’ and ‘what the others are doing’. That’s fuel for misery.
  • Give your attention to yourself, and only yourself. You are your absolute best friend. Your attention is like spotlight to the seed of your wellbeing.
  • Start from where you are. And let go of the past. You can’t start from the top of the mountain again if you fall down.
  • Do the best you can, with what you’ve Got.

A quick Tid bit of information:

The original condition or worship, is a ยซ state or condition of worth ยป.
When you embrace worship, then, your aim is to embrace your real worth :
the divine perfection that resides within you. With a path, we are no longer afraid or worried.  

So, here’s a few question for you:

  • What is my northstar?
  • What does that northstar feel like?
  • How can I empower/abide by my internal feeling of bliss and grace ?
  • How can I best accept where I am?
  • How can I use my current journey to help other people?

When we fall low, it’s actually so we can rectify, or lead others back up our mountain, because we didn’t lead well the first time. Like a sherpa, you’re called to come back down to base-camp so that you can heal yourself and lead others back up to where you were going to, minus the excess bagage you thought you needed the first time.

All the best,

Put a bit of Heart in your Head.

I want you to remove from your head the belief that you have little time. I want you to remove the pressure from your heart. I want you to embrace that you have all the time in the world and that the dream you so desire is unfolding as you let it.

Your deepest desires are not too far from reach. It is the fear, it is the doubt, it is the frustration and the external pressure that everything must happen NOW, and that a sense of external urgency force-fed to you over and over prevents you from actually being able to appreciate your present moment enough to build with it or even trust in it, that the life you so desire is only around the corner.

You are wonderful, maybe no one has told you today. And the idea that you are somehow lacking in some foreign way prevents you from sitting in the hot water of your hearts bath.

Immersed in love you are my friend, and yet you are blind to the abundant and limitless bliss that surrounds you.

If you could only remove the contrast and comparison of the the agressive perfection you are attacked by day by day; could you fully embrace the wonders of your graceful heart.

I want you to see the good, to see the well of goodness that surrounds you, and which emanates from within you. For you are different, you are special, you are here on a mission, and your sole purpose is to shine from within that incredible heart.

You are here to serve others, not as a slave, but as a master of your ship. You are here to serve others by being in service to your good heart. By being loving, and warm, and patient with yourself, and by allowing yourself to believe that the beauty you envision and so hope for is waiting for you behind that dreadful wall you distrust so much; the fearful future who holds over you what you want not, dictating the miseries of all the world.

Step aside, there is another path; faith. Have faith, and even if you don’t believe in some higher force, in yourself, and that for all the goodness that resides within you the world will somehow try to pull that out of you and bring it to the surface. Trust, that your good heart only has one purpose; to live within Love (to love and be loved).

Finding a peaceful balance between what’s going on in the world and where you are inside of yourself



It is important to be in harmony between how we feel inside and how we are outside.
This isnโ€™t always possible, if so we must learn to love ourselves, and accept it from the inside out.ย 

Hence why we strive for perfection. People will qualify us through how they see us first and foremost. Which is distressing for anyone who isn’t picture perfect in today’s society. How can we possibly keep up with the constant update of knowledge?trends, tips, articles, news outlets, podcast shows and live to be as great as everyone else? How can we like anything we are, when we consistently compare ourselves with “everyone else”?

We simply cannot keep up. We can’t, even if we wanted to keep up with everything that is happening on a daily basis all around the world. There are way too many people and events occurring.

It is then wise to go in the opposite direction and disregard everything and everyone.
It becomes essential, in order to focus on the one most important ingredient in the recipe known to date, to neglect anything and everything but ourselves, how we’re feeling, what we’re thinking, how we function etc. I’d say the COVID is a blessing, but I already lived like this pre-covid. It’s very much so a blessing for everyone else, whether they can see it or not.

The contrast of one’s objective and virtual presence, is an extension of self. It’s very easy for everyone to get caught up in the illusion that How we are seen by others, How we perform in video games, or media covered games, or any other sort of exposure through a screen. It simply isn’t Who we are, nor is it What we are. It is but an intention, a role we play well, a placement of our time and effort in projecting something for others to relate to.

Take it all away, and all you have is yourself. Have you ever tried sitting in the dark with one candle, with no screen, no book, no kindle or music or anything. Just you and the candle? I bet you’ll get a little anxious at a certain point. Truth is, at first it might seem uncomfortable, maybe even anxiety producing… But by staying with it, we get to experience ourselves, what we’re feeling, why we’re feeling that way and so on… A vital road, in taking time out for us.

In todays world we need to perfect our camera presence in order to feel confident with others.ย If we are critical of ourselves, we cannot feel confident entirely with others.ย Weโ€™ll often have illogicisms, and discrepancies we need to overcome.ย Looking at myself through the camera, I see my critical self come out and poke holes at what I am doing as well as how I am corresponding with myself, the camera, and others around.ย When speaking on camera, I discovered that I was highly self critical.ย The process of overcoming the camera’s perception, isn’t the camera, but how I’m seeing myself through the lens.ย 

Have something to say, an exercise to follow. A guide-line and rules to follow in order to overcome and progress.ย Once we have the rules of the game, we can test, go through trial and error until we become perfect with the camera “in our own perception of perfect”. Above all, we see our flaws. They’re highlighted and in our face. They’re big and bright in contrast to what we’re normally aware of. When other people see us, they take it as a given “This dude has x, y or z… that’s just normal.” But what if, on that day the “Dude” in question had something which wasn’t normal to his everyday settings of normality?

When people break down their limiting beliefs, they become unstoppable, more creative. How do you define creativity? How creative are you in your business or life?

I define creativity as an energy, for me its a state of flow where what I envision comes out in writing, speaking, music, ideas and visions or what I can draw or paint. 

I would say I am very creative. Thereโ€™s a difference between creative for productive. These are two different things.

Creative is the capacity to come up with ideas, to be stimulated and curious and driven to take action upon them.

It’s like an energy switch. Like turning on a light bulb. The energy behind the switch is something you cultivate and then allocate to whatever outlet, just like electricity.

I also practice energetic transmutation, which is harnessing my sexual energy and focussing it towards my creative pursuits, or physical exercise like running or cycling. 

Productive on the other hand is execution, this depends on your state of health and your discipline to apply your creativity through one outlet or another.
