Here we’ll share practical perspectives, understandings, insights and realisations about self, the mind, the physical, the world, consciousness – and everything and all else in-between as the multi-dimensional existence that we currently consist of and exist as; and within that: practical support and assistance methods/tools/techniques of facing this existence as self in the process of standing-up and standing-together in changing ourselves to change the world.

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…

The Desteni of Living – My Utmost Potential: DAY 1
The Principle of Realising and Living my Utmost Potential


In this post, 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.

The wording of this Principle is very specific, for you first have to REALISE your utmost potential before you are able to LIVE it. Then, we also have to look what ‘your Utmost Potential’ practically entails – with ‘practically’ I mean: how exactly do you visibly live and apply your utmost potential in everyday life to contribute your life experience as well as that of others.

We’re going to start with defining ‘Utmost Potential’.

I have found within my personal process / life experience – that I so often underestimated myself to the extent where I couldn’t fathom me having any ‘potential’, where I in a time within my life believed that “this is all I will ever be” / “I will never reach / attain anything ‘more’” – you know, that experience within yourself of just “settling for less”.
I have mostly found what hampered my seeing / realising any potential within myself – primarily came from approaching challenges in my life and immediately reacting to them in a way of “I can’t do this” / “I won’t be able to this” / “I’m going to disappoint everyone”. So, without even trying – I sell myself short, leading to giving up and so keeping myself in my self-proclaimed limitation / ‘settling for less’ inner and out experience. This is where and how in such moments – I never allowed myself to see what I am capable of, what potential I do have and what not.

STEP 1: Recognizing you have Potential

The process of realising and living your utmost potential – starts with the first step of RECOGNIZING you have potential! This is why, for some, when looking at the words ‘utmost potential’ – you kind of ‘hit a blank’ within yourself: it’s because you haven’t yet established within yourself the fact that you do have potential in the first place.
By this I mean the following: I have met a person in my life that gave me a lot of responsibility. No one before this had ever given me responsibility / considered giving me responsibility because of how I behaved in my life: I was generally viewed as undependable and irresponsible. Obviously, the responsibility of this was solely on me – yet, I used to take it very personally and often blamed others; refusing to see the fact that it was in my actions that I was showing myself and others what, who and how I was accepting and allowing myself to be. It took one person to – instead of ONLY looking at my actions, still recognize the fact that I do have potential: it was just that I myself didn’t yet realise it / see it. Because this individual had in their life walked a similar path – initially seeing no potential in themselves, to realising that even when they were in the toughest of times within themselves / their lives where all seemed lost: they still had potential – this allowed this individual to show others how self-potential still exists, it’s always here, you only need to recognize it by being shown and then foster it within yourself.

This is the important point within it all: we don’t often realise the extent to which we can become self absorbed in our Mind, such as for example what I had found with becoming the belief that I wouldn’t amount to anything in my life, which caused me to not even recognize the fact that I do still have potential – even when all seemed lost within myself / my life. This is why and how, with the support and assistance of those who were able to / already have stepped out of such absorption / beliefs in the Mind – you can assist and support yourself to realise the potential for potential to be fostered within you and so lived.

As I have been shown the potential of my potential – and from the showing, lived and applied myself to change myself, I will through walking my process in this blog, show you the potential of your potential. But, as with all things – I can only SHOW you the way: you have to walk it.

We’ll continue more in posts to come



The Desteni of Living - My Declaration of Principle: DAY 0

The Desteni of Living - My Declaration of Principle: DAY 0


Here are my living principles that I am in the process of living – where I commit myself to assist and support myself to endeavour becoming, being and living these principles until my within and without (who I am within and how I live without) is equal and one - the same - and where I commit myself to live my utmost potential, even beyond this life into the next.

I will walk each Principle in individual posts to come, explaining each one in detail together with practical examples of how living each Principle changed me in assisting and supporting my life and living experience in this world.

1.       Realising and living my utmost potential

2.       Living by the principle of what is best for all – guiding me in thought, word and deed to always in all ways direct problems to the best possible outcome for all

3.       Living by the principle of self honesty – to ensure I am pure in thought, word and deed: that my within and without is equal and one. Who I am within is who I am without and vice-versa

4.       Self Purification through Writing, Self Forgiveness and Self Application – the action of realising I am responsible for my own thoughts, words and deeds, to forgive myself for transgressions and change myself to ensure I take responsibility for who, what and how I am and through this know that I can trust myself to always be honest with me and so others

5.       Living the principle of Self Responsibility – realising only I am responsible for what I accept and allow inside of me, my relationships and my outside world and so with this responsibility: only I have the power and ability to change that which I see is compromising who I am, what I live and how this affects others

6.       Realising that who I am in thought, word and deed affects not only myself – but others as well and so with Self Responsibility in thought, word and deed – I take responsibility for myself and so my relationships to be Self Aware in every moment  and live in such a way that is best for me and so others as well

7.       Living the Principle of Self Awareness – to be aware, to see, to recognize my own thoughts and Mind, to be self honest to the extent where I can take responsibility for when I see my thoughts / Mind is not what is best for me / others and commit to immediately take responsibility and change for myself and so for others

8.       With taking responsibility for myself, becoming aware of myself – take responsibility and become aware of others in my life, to assist and support them as I am assisting and supporting myself – to give as you would like to receive and do the extra bit every day to see where I can contribute to other’s lives and so my own

9.       Living the principle of self trust – as I commit myself to remain constant in my living of self honesty, self responsibility and self awareness, I stand as an unbending trust that I always in all ways know who I am no matter what I face and that in this I know, as proven in the constancy of my living that I will always honour and stand by what is best for all and so best for me

10.    Making Love Visible – through me not accepting/allowing anything less than my utmost potential, I support those in my life to reach their utmost potential, to love them as I have shown love to myself by gifting to me my utmost potential, the best life/living experience and show others as I have shown myself what it means to LIVE

11.    No one can save you, save yourself – the realisation that the tools and principles of Desteni is the guide, but I must walk the path myself. We are here to assist and support each other in this process from Consciousness to Awareness/LIFE and what it means to live – but the process itself, where you are alone with yourself in your own Mind: is walked alone

12.    Not waiting for anything or anyone to take responsibility for me and this world – but that I realise I have created who and how I am in this moment, therefore I have the responsibility to change who and how I am and so the realisation that we as a collective created how and what this world is today and so it is the responsibility of the collective to change how and what this world is today

13.    Honouring the life in each person, animal – everything from the great to the small of earth, that we expand our awareness and responsibility to creating the best possible life for everyone and everything and so ourselves

14.    Relationships as Agreements: individuals coming together using agreements as a platform to one-on-one expand, grow and develop as individuals in life and living to support/assist each other unconditionally to reach their utmost potential where the agreement is a coming together of individuals understanding what it means to stand as equals and to stand as one

15.    Sex as Self Expression – where sex is an united expression between individuals in honour, respect, consideration and regard of each other as equals, two physical bodies uniting in equality and oneness – a merging of two equals as one physically.

16.    Realising that by the virtue of me being in this world – my responsibility does not only extend to my own Mind / my own Life, but to the minds and lives of everything and everyone of this earth and so my commitment is to extend this awareness to all of humanity to work together and live together to make this world heaven on earth for ourselves and the generations to come

17.    I must in my thoughts, words and deeds – but most importantly in my living actions, become a living example for others in my world that is noticeable and visible when it comes to the potential of a person to change themselves and so change their world. So that more people can realise how we can change this world, by standing united in our self change within the principle of what is best for all to bring heaven to earth

18.    I am the change I want to see in me and my world – to bring heaven to earth is to bring into being, into living the LIVING PROOF of a PRACTICAL HEAVEN that can be seen and heard in our actions and words. We are the Living Heaven that must come into creation in this living world.

19.    Through purifying my thoughts, words and deeds – my inner becomes my outer, so I bring into creation me as heaven into earth, realising it is not enough to ‘see the change / be the change’ – for change to become REAL it must be a constant, consistent living of me through the words I speak and the actions I live visible and noticeable to all in every moment of breath

20.    Realising that my physical body is my temple – my physical body is the living flesh through which and in which I will bring into being and create / manifest heaven on earth as me in my thoughts, words and deeds and so I honour, respect and regard – nurture and support my physical body as I would nurture and support me as equals: my body is me

21.    We are the change in ourselves and this world we have been waiting for: and so I commit to dedicate myself and my life for each one as all to realise this, as nothing will change if we don’t change in all that we are, within and without

22.    The realisation that for me to be able to change myself in thought, word and deed to the most effective living being that I can be and become – I first have to ‘know thyself’ and so commit myself to investigate, introspect and understand how I became who I am today, to prepare the road before me into self creation of a responsible, aware, self honest and trustworthy person for myself and so for all

23.    The realisation that for me to be able to contribute to change in this world – I have to get to ‘know thyself’ as this world and so commit myself to research, investigate and introspect the inner and outer workings of this world and align the systems of today to present and give the best possible life for all on Earth
