Be Still

   The Need to be Still Stopping your body from any movement in stillness. But we are not talking about that. If we ask someone the importance of stillness, they might not understand the question itself. Stillness, is it sitting still or is  having the ability to block out everything and everyone around you? In this fast-paced life, people are conditioned to work all the time, to be productive.  The moment something stops working for us, we move away from that thing to go on to something which will work for us. When we practice a simplistic lifestyle we realize how essential it is each day to carve out a few minutes to be still.
You essentially move in your life in three different directions: Moving away: this is associated with fear and neglect. For instance, if a lizard scares you, you move away from it. Because you feel a sense of fear and lack of security. A person tries to avoid anything which chills down your spine. When you move away from your fears, you try to avoid the feeling altogether, avoid people and situations, paranoid thinking, and holding yourself back, which  leads to excessive worry. Moving Against: Moving against is simply moving away from anything which could harm you personally, mentally, emotionally, or physically. It helps you curb vulnerability. When you move against something, you get rebellious. You desire power and control, you start to judge people, you would do anything to resist the uncomfortable feeling before letting it sink in. Moving Toward: moving towards simply means moving towards something which fulfills your need. More often than not, people have this mindset of not being enough. When you move towards something, you seek approval from others; you attract desires even when they are not healthy. You move towards something when your urges arise for that particular thing. The role of simple being stiles an art if practiced will serve you well in many ways Do you know that the act of being still could be the solution you have looking for. Do you feel overwhelmed or sometimes empty, with a red alarm buzzing in your head that something is missing? Or when you move in these three different directions, you feel like you could start all over. Let us understand the importance of stillness in these three ways of moving. If you move away, against or toward something, every time you feel the need to move impulsively, try to let the feeling sink in. try to feel the anxiety, the vulnerability, the lack, the desires, the fear, and avoidance. It is pertinent to include every feeling and embrace it. Stillness gives you the power to think and feel every feeling in-depth. Once you let yourself feel it, you will understand that there is nothing to be afraid of.
“Fear is only in the feeling of fear itself.”

Steps to Financial Freedom

     One of the things that the global pandemic has taught us is to have  a well-managed financial portfolio. As soon as lockdown began, unfortunately, many people lost their jobs. Businesses were also deeply affected. A large number of people were under huge financial stress and with this never-ending outbreak of Covid 19, recovering from the Pandemic has not been easy for many people. But this is not the first time. We have seen market crashes and periods of high unemployment over the years.This has led financial experts to believe that a need for multiple income sources is imperative.The underlying concept used by these experts here is Financial Freedom.Financial freedom can be articulated into three major domains, money management, having multiple sources of income, and lowering debts. It is believed that if understood correctly, financial freedom can greatly improve your lifestyle.
              Financial Freedom in simplistic terms means to have enough disposable income that one can manage one’s own personal expenses. To be able to save money and not be worried about having a job to survive but rather you are in charge of your own time.To begin with, increasing your sources of income can be done in multiple ways. Investment in stocks, startups or pre-established business is one way to go about it.

               With the never-ending demand of the service industry, There is reasoned to believe that learning new skills can be a great way to add earn extra money into your pocket. Learning new skills not only enhances your work capacity but also increases your income. You can practice the newly learned skills in your existing job, boost your performance, and demand a raise from the employer or you can also practice these skills on freelance platforms. Either way an increase in your disposable income is possible. Apart from this, you can always have a side gig going on with your job. It may only take up an hour or two after work but would greatly help you with managing your financials in a better way.Make sure your with your Side gig there is not a conflict of interest with your regular job.
   Money management is a major aspect of financial freedom. You cannot truly achieve financial freedom if you have not mastered the skill. Money management is all about consciously managing your money effectively.




       The reality is that savings alone will never make you give you financial freedom. You must put work your money to work for you and take prudent but necessary steps to financial independence.
Lowering debts is also essential.But in part 2 we will expand further on this. The reality is that the road to financial independence is not an instant one but rather a systemic planned out agenda that will take discipline and consistency.

     I will be writing several more articles where I will look more in depth at steps to financial freedom. Financial freedom is simply possible and it can be achieved no matter  your status and job title.

Who Are You ?

3/14/2021

1 Comment

 
      I ran an experiment by asking over 300 people the question who are you ? As was my expectations everyone I asked began answering the question by telling me about their long lists of accomplishments; their job title, what they own, the type of car they drive, the house they  live in, or who they know. Which brings me back to my question

                                                            WHO ARE YOU ?

       The truth is many people simply do not know who they are, because their identity is tied to the position they hold in their job, the brand name clothes they wear, the car they drive,,or wear they live.But who are you after work? who will you be after the children are gone? who are you in your marriage, or who are you if your marriage ends in divorce? who are you when you take off your brand name clothes, or get out of your brand name luxury car?
         Take a look in the mirror. Do you like what you see? Too many people do not like themselves so they are living a lie. Trying to be someone they are not.They become someone else by trying to look like a celebrity. They purchased items they cannot afford or take debt they cannot afford just to belong to a certain circle of people or to appear on social media with lavish lifestyles. Have you ever met someone who is one way in private but a complete different person in public  or when they are around certain people.
           Simple learn to appreciate yourself for who you are and what you have.If someone doesn't appreciate you for who you are then they do not deserve to be in your life. You can still work with  or be around someone who wants all the contraptions or appear to have it and still not be affected by them. Let simplicityseeu. The choice is yours to remain who you are. Never let someone cause to pretend to be what you are not.
              When you find out who you are then your job title or what you own does not describe you and quite frankly you do not need to flaunt it or even mention it.I have always said the people with real wealth never talk about it because it simple doesn't define them. Take a look in the mirror and see you. Say I am beautiful and I love you. Talk about the things you like and dislike.Talk about what makes you sad or happy. What are your dreams and hopes. Talk about places you want to go. What are the good things about you and what are the bad things as we all are not perfect.

       These are the things that make you who you are. Not material things.The lost of material things or if you gain fame or win the lotto it will not change you because you know who you are. Each day look in the mirror and say pointing to yourself. I (say your name) am simply marvellous and am very fine. Don't just say it believe it. Each day say this affirmation until you feel  confident. Live life from within. When you know who you are you do not need pretend to be someone you are not.
     Live simple and let let simplicityseeu where you are and as you are. I would love to hear from you. Until next time live simple, be simple.

    I believe in living life in a simple yet fulfilling stratosphere. Simple doesn't mean denying yourself  of all the great things that life has to offer. Life was meant to be lived on your own terms and not  on someone else's. It is about you.
