The Desteni of Living
– Utmost Potential: DAY 2
The Principle of
Realising and Living my Utmost Potential
In this post and posts to come, I am discussing what
‘Realising and Living my Utmost Potential’ practically means – through showing
how I have (and still do) live and realise this Principle.
STEP 1: Recognizing my
own Potential (Self Forgiveness)
Here I will walk a Self Forgiveness Process showing how I
accepted and allowed myself to suppress me and so my potential, to the extent
of not even recognizing that I had potential. Essentially constructing myself
in my Mind in such a way where I ‘lost’ a part of myself and completely embraced
the acceptance and allowance of self limitation. This so severe that, when I
was given Responsibility
– more than I had ever had, it took me a while to break through the barriers of
self limitation I had set for myself. It was quite a process within myself and
between this individual that gave me the responsibility to eventually allow
myself to open up to myself, my potential and FOR MYSELF see what I am able to
do if I would but only allow myself to see / realise and apply / live. In this Self Forgiveness and Self
Commitment Process I will show the process of what I faced in my Mind and
outside world in relation to self-limitation and how I assisted and supported
myself to transcend this:
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed the
self-belief of “I am not good enough”
I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself
to see, realise and understand how such a self-belief – if given enough
thoughts and energy, would become ME, through and through, to the extent where
this self-belief is all that I will see and be; locking myself down / into
myself to not be able to see the potential of being / becoming anything ‘more’.
I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to
hold onto the characteristics and traits of such a self-belief as “not being
good enough”, where this self-belief would become my presence
and my actions – leading to giving up / giving in before I even started and in
so doing, not showing myself and so others anything different in who I am in
word and deed than being undependable and irresponsible – because every time I
was given responsibility, I would give up / give in and essentially sabotage
the opportunity to prove to myself and others of being capable of doing / being
‘more’
I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to
not see,
realise and understand how my “within” would become my “without” – where: I
kept on accepting and allowing self-doubt, insecurity, fear, uselessness to
sabotage my relationship to responsibility, then responsibility would come and
accept/allow “I am not good enough” to take over – which then leads to me
disappointing myself and others when it comes to responsibilities until
eventually…I stopped placing myself in ‘responsible’ / ‘dependable’ situations
and embraced the ‘irresponsible’ / ‘undependable’ persona
I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed to see,
realise and understand how an IDEA of self, becomes a belief, becomes your
being and so embodies your actions – such as “I am not good
enough” / “I can’t do this” / “I won’t be able to do this”, which then generates
emotions of self doubt, insecurity, fear, uselessness etc. and fascinatingly
enough – how these relationships becomes a vicious cycle from within self, to
the without and then from the without to the within where: first it’s the idea,
then the believing of the idea, then the becoming of the idea that is then
lived into the outside world, where the outside world will then respond to you
as the IDEA you are projecting, which then confirms your IDEA of
yourself and so over and over and over again – you are stuck in the cycle
of eventual self-destruction
I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself
to see, realise and understand the extent to which this initial idea of myself
that then became my self-belief – my “I’m not good enough”-religion, the extent
to which it possessed me that I did not ever consider changing myself…it’s as
though the prospect of change or even being able to change myself was so
non-existent that if I were left to my own vices…I would have surely this life
not been where I am and who I am in this moment; seeing, realising and
understanding how much of ourselves is purely based on ideas / self-beliefs
that can be CHANGED – we only don’t realise / see this POTENTIAL
because we’re so lost, locked-in and possessed on a mind, being and physical
level into and as ideas / beliefs that it seems SO CEMENTED…so unchangeable
that we simply do not even consider change…
I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself
to see, realise and understand that I would not have been able to assist and
support myself in my self-change process – if I was not shown the POTENTIAL I
have for change / self-change; this POTENTIAL of change / self change exists
within and as the moment you SHOW YOURSELF that you can change / correct
yourself, learn from mistakes and so grow, develop and expand within who you
are in thought, word and deed – so that the within change, for the without to
change; which then completely changes your experience and life experience
In the next post I will continue with Self Forgiveness and
Self Commitment Statements – showing how the FIRST INSTANCE of realising that
POTENTIAL EXISTS…is where you SHOW
YOURSELF you can change, this being the first SEED of SELF POTENTIAL that
becomes planted and with being nourished…you will flower / grow into and as
your utmost potential…
