How to be from zero to hero?

The objective here is to move from where you are to become a hero.

You start each moment with nothing (you are present and not your past) and you have the potential to be a hero...if you wish.

If you are nothing...you are free now and not focus on your past.

Are you willing, prepared and ready to create this?

Remember your destination.

Is this difficult for you to accept and agree?

If you disagree, will you be able to change or reach this goal?

No.

Why?

You are in conflict with this idea. Once in conflict, issues will arise. Leads to resistance. You will not want to continue to achieve this simple act. Your mind provides valid reasons why this is not for you.

Is this why learning stops progressing?

Why?

This new information is not aligned with the old. It represents a threat to the established. Meaning the old do not want to be replaced. This is how your unconscious mind works.To protect the existing data and prevent confusion. Unfortunately this impedes learning something new...relevant and useful information.

In order to grow, you need to assimilate and evaluate the true values and benefits before you decide to discard it. This action brings you to a state of awareness...it will provide you with an opportunity for change to upgrade your mind. Rather do what you have always done. Operating in an automatic, unconscious way without further investigation.

If this make sense, you now have a choice to become open to new possibilities. In doing this, you have already succeeded in changing who you are.

Is this idea worthwhile to proceed and experience this new way of thinking?

I leave you with this thought to ponder on for a few moments.

If you still disagree...that is okay.

It simply shows that your mind is not ready to change. You have plenty of time...right?

Anyway, before I leave you. I hope you have a happy and fulfilling life being you. After all, you know what is best for you and others. Are you a hero in your and others eyes?

Here's the information for those who are ready to proceed?

Why zero?

Zero means nothing. When you are nothing means you have the potential or power to create anything...right?

But if you are already somebody, it is difficult to change into another person without avoiding conflicts.

Remember how your unconscious mind works.

Let us start the day off by making your bed.

Why?

You want to feel good in the morning.

Why does this make you feel good?

This action means you can make a difference to your environment. It feels good knowing you have the power to change not only you but your room...when you made a decision and continue to improve.

Build up your character to be self-confident, self-belief, self-aware, self-reliant, competent, appreciate and understand you are interconnected, independent and interdependent on life. You value life and care what happens to you and the world.

If you extend to thank your bed for providing a good night's sleep. Also appreciate the person who has made your bed possible for you to enjoy. Of course, you can thank the person who made the pillows too...and so on throughout your day. Including your family, colleagues, friends and people you come into contact.

These little acts you perform daily will become your new habits. These habits will become your automatic and unconscious mind. Creating healthy attitudes of a hero is not as difficult as you thought.

Is this a dynamic yet simply and practical way of living?

Just imagine how much you have improved and are now more connected with the outside world.

I think this is the way forward to build a better life for you...that includes others in it.

If you are aware of this now, would you not want to share your comments to our community?

Today

What does this word today mean for you?

The meaning is personal and different for each of us.

For me, today means it is fresh and new. I have yet to experience...that gives me opportunities to discover and learn how to use my mind competently to generate new and liberating ideas for us today.

Why is it important?

If I continue to maintain and store information unconsciously, this action would stop me from learning how to create better and more satisfying experiences in not only my life but others too. Letting go of outmoded and detrimental ideas that are impeding my growth.

Yesterday's information may no longer be relevant or useful to help us cope with today's reality. Be mindful, learn to process them wisely...let go of divisive and judgemental thoughts.

Anything that we see, read or hear will trigger our unconscious minds to spring into action, making us feel emotional.

If we start to observe our bodily responses after we have seen, heard or read something from the media...we will know their origins and their intentions. If we are unaware of this...we will become powerless and be part of their mouth pieces.

Be aware of what information we are maintaining and retaining from today onwards.

Some of them may be useful to retain, but most become toxic and damaging if kept too long...like hanging on to hatred, anger and unforgivingness. These emotional states would keep us in bo***ge to their power and influence by feeding us with their carefully crafted scripts.

It is my hope that you will receive this message as illuminating food for thought! Something liberating to reflect and ponder on today.

Best wishes...hope you have an awesome day!

Most common mistake is to believe or think "There is a BETTER over THERE, then HERE". Because even when one gets to the new "over THERE", that simply becomes the new "HERE". Which then leads one to want another "better over THERE".

STOP right now. Ask: Is there something, about anything at all, I would like to be BETTER? If answer is "Yes", then "most COMMON mistake" becomes apparent.

It's so common that even when it's pointed out (as doing now), the pointing out itself - is subject to criticism, insult, judgement... in order to maintain the status quo of believing-thinking this way for a long time.

See, even if one becomes a president (supposedly the most power any man could ask for from the world), then one soon realizes "I'm not liked enough". So another "better over THERE" develops.

This results in fruitless and endless search for happiness due to an incorrect attitude.

So how do we solve this mistake?...

It's solved as one appreciates what is present RIGHT NOW.

Have a low pay job? At least you have one.

Have a lousy relationship? At least you're still strong and somehow holding on.

Feel unfulfilled? At least you're aware that you're unfulfilled. Giving opportunity to search for the answers.

Don't like this message? At least your eyes are working, giving capacity to read.

** There is no higher way to live life on earth then with attitude of gratitude. **

Don't have enough followers/friends? At least you have ONE which matters most, YOURSELF.

Without YOUR EXISTENCE, what is there to know... when there is noone to know anything.

Appreciate your EXISTENCE.

If you can’t see how this is already true, then it’s your duty to discover how it IS already true. Not by fake positive thinking or as an intellectual fact. But by understanding. Now an adult, it’s your mission to do so, despite endless distractions of the world.

Today is one day closer to body’s inevitable death. And constant YouTube entertainment, regular FB checking and smartphone fascination isn’t necessarily helping.

Who/what is this “I” which precedes all your sentences, opinions, thoughts and emotions. Never mind what you know or don’t know about the Relative world.

Do you know who this “I” is? Don’t answer on FB. No need to prove to world anything. It’s private Self-enquiry.

Your body-mind was given birth of a human being.
This boon alone is greatest privilege in Creation.
It could've been an animal destined for slaughter.
Body-mind was given 5 senses. All working.

In childhood, these senses were exposed to toys.
Which you don't even remember what kind.
Yet they were "so important" back then.

In teen, senses were directed to girls/boys.
Which you don't even remember their names.
Yet they were "so important" back then.

In adulthood, senses are wasted on excessive entertainment.

Which you don't even remember what YouTube was watched 3 days ago.

Yet it was "so important" at that time.

None of these things provided permanent satisfaction.

That's why you're consumed by never-ending pursuit of self-satisfaction.

Exposing 5 senses on short-lived Objects.

Objects like emotions, thoughts, friends, s*x, children, money, etc.

All Objects are known to YOU.

Meaning Object's existence depends on YOUR EXISTENCE first.

If there's no "YOU", whose there to enjoy the Object?

If you don't exist, what is there to know, when there is noone to know anything.

Have you thought about this?

If not, it's because your 5 senses are preoccupied on temporary Objects.

Admit it! You're still looking for PERMANENT happiness.

Facebook, Netflix, Youtube, dating, traveling hasn't worked.

How long will you keep exposing your eyes and ears to temporary Objects.

Pursue the highest goal of human life. That is an instruction.

"Who am I?"
"What am I?"
"What is my True ETERNAL Identity?"

Your 5 senses are either exposed to temporary objects, or...
Discovering your True Eternal Nature.
This is your mission.

If you think it's not, or this message is "stupid", it's ok. One day, you'll turn to the HIGHER.

Recognizing no worldly Objects provided you PERMANENT satisfaction.

Then you'll finally pursue the HIGHEST goal of human life.

Your choice friend. You always had a choice. So far, it was mostly used to select which temporary Object to indulge in or with.

What will you choose now and thereafter?

Keep indulging senses in temporary Objects
OR
Discover who is this ' I ' you keep starting all your sentences with.

An easy method to help subside your mind's ever arising thoughts and help bring it to a sightly greater level of inner peace... is to use something that's always available to you. YOUR BREATH. Take advantage of it as a reminder. Imagine breathing in light of peace. And breathing out the dark noisy thought occurring at the time.

Breathe in ___ (whatever is good for you and the world). Breathe out ___ (whatever you know inherently doesn't belong to you).

"Soulmate" superstitious idea is actually subtle form of discrimination and arrogance. Why? If you think about it, it's saying "ONE person is BETTER then everyone else". Of course if you said that outright, you'd be scolded. The idea only justifies one's actions to treat everyone else LESS then they deserve, other then their "beloved soulmate".

It only reinforces false belief "I am separate from the WHOLE. Thus I deserve special privileges by having soulmate assigned for JUST ME, ME, ME!". Hear the arrogance in that statement? Please think about this.

Happiness can only be found within YOU. Not outside. Because outside are other people also looking outside for happiness from others who are also looking outside.

Your task is NOT to react by liking/disliking this post. Even a cat's intellect can tap on the like/dislike button. Your task is to...

Go through left side and ask "Which ONE of these would I like to contemplate on for today, and resolve to integrate into my life?".

And for the insecure side... reflect how one or more traits (which you identify with), is negatively impacting your life and the world. Then resolve what ACTIONS could you do in next 1 week to DO THE OPPOSITE.

EG: Negative thinking (judging people, posting rude comments, etc) -> Appreciation (being thankful for what you have)

Irony of technology.
In what new ways can you start using your Mind, that would lead to a peaceful, disciplined, inspiring life?

Who’s right/wrong… begs fruitless discussions. Why? Because what you think is Right today, is Wrong tomorrow as your PERSPECTIVE CHANGES. So instead of being Right/Wrong... inquire “What causes me to look at it in THIS way?”. Become an inquirer. Question your experience, feelings, thoughts. This is HIGHEST use of human intellect.

Prefer tablet or book for reading? Why? Comment.

We'll start: both because book upholds an evergreen palpable feel, causing us to sometimes take it more seriously then digital. While digital of course has easy highlighting, note taking and sketching which can improve memory retention.
