Taking A Stand On You

Do not ‘buy’ into people’s/societies/media expectations, allow you inner voice to be louder than outside influences - be strong, be you, you are worth it. But how do we do that?

Usually we are inundated with peoples beliefs, societies beliefs of how we 'should' be, but what I do is write down what are the core values of me, who am I really (infinite/powerful/capable/master of my life etc), who do I want to be - you could say your very own mission statement. In fact I use to have my own mission statement that I had printed out and I stuck it on my bedroom wall of what that wasm I would look at each day, everyday I looked at that at least twice, so I knew that was my focus and that was where my intention laid, that was my guide as to where I was heading or who I was. By having that in the forefront of my mind throughout the day, I refused to allow others 'projections' on how I should live or be.

It all starts with setting out your own desires and realizing that you are powerful and worth it. And also to remember other peoples expectations are simply their own expectations/perceptions/projections on how life should be. The chances are that they were told to be a certain way, and those before them were told to be a certain way. In reality its just an opinion that may of been passed down through the generations.

The really interesting thing is that those who do not buy into reasons as to why they can not achieve or be who they wish make wonderful changes in the world. In fact a lot of breakthroughs were once thought to be unattainable or impossible, but those who dared it could, showed it could be possible.

Take a look at the Martin Luther Kings on the world, they took a stand because it was right and true for themselves despite at a time when societies expectations were a million miles apart, but by standing up, being strong even when our voice shakes, it causes us to actualize the true power of self...and you are powerful and worth it.

Have you enjoyed my work? Over 700,000 of you have downloaded it for free

Joseph here, I've produced over 100 hours of audio and given it away freely without wanting anything in return. In fact my work has been downloaded by more than 700,000 people in little over two years. This Charity is close to my heart... my Grandmother passed from Cancer and I miss her greatly, and also a friend of mine had Leukaemia, thankfully he was lucky and he got well again because of donations like yours.  Your contribution really will make a difference to the lives of 30,000 people diagnosed every year.  DONATE HERE In 2009 my best friend’s dad was diagnosed with Leukaemia. It obviously rocked my best friend’s family as would anyone. It also shook me; I have known Phil since I was around 5 or 6 years old, in fact I remember him coming into school teaching us as guest and thinking what a cool guy he was..

I regard Phil not as just my best friend’s dad, but also a good friend. That’s when it got me thinking.

If you have gotten even the smallest amount of value from my work Pay It Forward by donating what you can now. Lets make changes in the world together.

DONATE HERE
