How to Harness Your Free Will for a Life of Joy and Success

I invite you to consider something profound: Are you truly harnessing the full potential of your free will?

If you are, you might find that many of the struggles you face today — stress, anxiety, overwhelm, excess weight, anger, unforgiveness, burnout, substance misuse, hatred, domestic abuse, violence, career stagnation, rejection, divorce, and relationship issues—are not your fault but rather a result of untapped potential.

Take the story of my client, Dr. Emma, for instance. She was once overwhelmed by the weight of her traumatic experiences, which affected her health, career and relationships.

That was until she embarked on a journey of emotional intelligence.

Through self-awareness, she learned to choose her emotional responses and behaviours consciously.

Today, she thrives in every aspect of her life, including her relationships.

But let's talk about free will. It's more universal than we might think.

In life skills, which are essential for thriving and connecting with others, your free will doesn't grant you the choice of whether you need them.

Instead, it allows you to determine the amount of suffering you and those around you endure until you learn a better way.

Unlike academic skills, life skills are mandatory and everyone, from world leaders to individuals facing adversity, learns and uses them to varying degrees.

What's optional is your appreciation of their value, the time you invest in learning them and the instructors you engage.

So, consider your journey of acquiring life skills. Who were your first teachers? Likely, they were your parents, caregivers and relatives.

Today, you can seek guidance from professionals in this crucial area of life.

Why do we often wait for crises, traumas, loss, disease or tragedy to reflect on who we are, how we live, what we feel and what we believe?

Why do we hesitate to embrace actual change until the worst-case scenario unfolds?

The question is: Why wait?

We can learn and change amidst pain and suffering or evolve in a state of joy and inspiration.

The difference lies in conscious decision-making.

Now, think about our investments in appearance, possessions and luxuries.

Isn't it time we invest equally in our happiness, self-awareness, self-management, empathy, forgiveness, interpersonal effectiveness, communication and conflict-resolution skills?

Learning to thrive in relationships should be no different than learning any other skill. So, why do we wait for crises to force our hand?

Imagine a world where children are formally educated in happiness, love, empathy, active listening and conflict mediation.

How might that change our world for the better?

We prepare people to respond to crises but have no preparation on how to excel in life skills. Why?

The good news is that it's always possible to learn these skills to expand beyond what your parents, caregivers and relatives taught you.

The power to choose when to learn and change is yours.

Will you wait until pain and suffering compel you or will you decide to change in a state of joy and inspiration?
