We live in a dual
or polarized world where everything is dual like day and night, good and evil,
positive and negative, ups and downs, happiness and sorrows, good luck and bad
luck and the list goes on and on. So there exist positive and negative energy in
this universe. And these vibrations or energy does affect the every person on
this Earth. Man finds his answers within himself by going deep down via self introspection.
What exactly is
Self-Introspection?
You all must have
heard this saying that “Go within and find
all answers”, because they lie there. This is actually self-introspection, where
you sit with your own self and have a deep long talk with your own very self about
your concerning issues, your feelings, your emotions, your life, where are you
heading in your life? What do you want? What kind of life you want? How see and
you feel about yourself? Everything that surrounds you and your life becomes
the center of your search because it does bother you somewhere.
Methods of Self-
Introspection
The most important
thing is to find time for yourself and of course a silent place where only tranquility
befriends you. First of all, you will have to find out what is troubling you?
The cause or the many causes of your problem, like physical reasons, emotional
reasons, psychological reasons and financial reasons. Once you find the reasons
behind the problem, start breaking them into small parts and solving them step
by step. You have to begun all this with positive mindset or with positive
thinking because the power of positive thinking will
change your thinking habits. NO need
to judge you at this junction because judging yourself here will create
bitterness and also at times people defend themselves for their wrongs
unknowingly ego tries to win the battle. But, yes you can make use of one of
the very good tool here and i.e., acceptance. Now, you need to detach yourself
from your problems because turbulent emotions create distorted image of
circumstances and life. Don’t limit your solutions or thinking.
This brings limitation in thinking and creates limiting beliefs. What we want
to manifest first needs our feelings and equally our belief because until we
change our feeling and belief systems we cannot operate and change our
environment. We need to know what is limiting us whether its money problem,
relationships problems, our dangerous fears, anxiety, insecurity, self-doubt,
low self-esteem, our limited ego even can create a huge problem.
Knowing the right
answers - Self Knowledge
Sometimes we are
responsible for not changing circumstances. Like we resist change, never do we
engage in self introspection. We believe our limited perception. We are unable
to expand our vision, because we fear of losing, we fear if we have to see or
face any loss. Ego is of both kind superiority complex and inferiority complex.
Feeling and believing higher or superior than others due to the darkness spread
by pride will take you to a path where you can easily fall. Inferiority complex
makes you feel victimized, helpless and burdened by problems. Now, suppose you
feel like a victimized person, then you are in a helpless state where a person
cannot even help himself. He has lost all his ability to re-work on his life.
He has lost his skill to use inner tools and strength to face and accept and
change things for the better. He doesn’t feel empowered. Benefits of self
introspection are many, which you will see and feel after doing it only. One more
thing, here Meditation also helps in
finding answers. It directs you towards self awareness.
Positive Thinking
changes perception
Positive thinking is not only a
profound cure but it saves from lot of other diseases of life. The power of positive thinking opens all
doors at your end. All the solutions lie at your own end. You just have to
expand your vision. Expansion that arise from the soul while allow you to see
bigger pictures of life, or big and better answers. So rise again with inner power
and strength for your survival. After going through deep self
introspection don’t think problems as problems, because then your mind will
change its attitude, and will not be on the opposite side rather by being
positive it will start sending thoughts that are inspiring and uplifting this
changes your mood and feeling from low energy to higher energy so that you rise
from lower vibrations. Then you attract solutions, ways to solve your problems,
your attitude changes so does your approach. You become friendly with your own
self, with your own mind. This creates balance and harmony. You started feeling
positive every time you notice a negative thought appearing witness it by being
detached see that it is arising welcome and let that pass don’t attach you
emotions and feelings to that though because then you are empowering it and
believing it to be true. Your habit of noticing these thoughts will save you
from unwanted drama that mood or low feelings create.
