3 reminders to help you transform your experience of 2024

It is important to start the new year with some resolutions and develop new habits. However you might also feel important to keep some important reminders so you can develop more congruency and more alignment with your inner values.

Let me share the reminders I'm taking and maybe you want to add your own later on:

#1. I AM YOU.

Whoever you meet daily for a brief conversation, or maybe you just notice each other on the street, or you already have some kind of a relationship (colleague, manager, business partner, client, etc.) with them, it is very important to remember that we are one.

We all belong to the canvas of humanity and are equally important part of that. I am not any more or less than you. You are not any more precious or values as I am.

Now read this again, feel the words, and think of each and every human being you are meeting during your day. Start seeing that their struggles might be yours in a way, their words can be your teaching for the day and your action might change something in their course of life.

Choose to use this reminder to help you stay on track and stay humble and compassionate.

#2. EVERYTHING IS RIGHT AND WRONG AT THE SAME TIME.

Judgment and critique is really what creating many (if not all!) conflicts on this planet. How about changing our perspective and instead of taking sides (Arab/Jew, Russian/Ukrainian, etc.) we just accept that the truth is not really there. The ultimate truth is on a different, more noble level.

When you accept that every opinion you form and every thought you have is right and wrong at the same time, things will shift.

Shift in a way that allows you to say good bye to judgment, critique and harsh (sometimes violent) emotions and develop a kinder, more loving presence that will multiply its blessings and truly create a wonderful daily experience for you and everyone around you. Start with shifting your perspective and choosing consciously where to put your focus.

#3. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS THE MOST POWERFUL ENERGY.

It is not very common on LinkedIN to talk about love, hope, compassion, kindness, but here it is me stepping outside the box. There is a powerful energy called unconditional love with the highest ever vibration and that includes all other emotional states (envy, anger, jealousy, competition) as smaller segments of it. The important piece is to understand who you are, that is the piece that brings the puzzle together, striving to be the best you can be is the most important task we all have. On that journey let's just remember that we are gently guided by a force that is loving in nature.
