Your Greatest Hits - Though saying so and doing so actively, consistently is perhaps where many people aren't congruent. One must adhere to a level of mental conditioning to be and remain untouched and unbreakable.
My dear friend Anks, I'm always impressed by your brilliant way of describing such powerful inner-work steps in such simplistic words! Indeed, after going through what I like to call the first shallow self-development journey during which I merely relied on positive affirmations (instantly overridden by my limiting beliefs with the first major incident), I found out how a trivial modification of some letters made a whole difference!
"Affirmations" transformed into "confirmations" after questioning, seeing the images, and feeling. That's the language of our subconscious program anyway, and I was thrilled to discover it. I'm not saying it was smooth. That would be a lie. The pain (or suffering in the beginning) was seemingly unbearable. What drastically helped raising my bravery level was what I visualized during my OBE. For this, I will never be grateful enough to the magical Universe!
Talking about confidence, I couldn't not remember a mind-blowing passage by Yuval Noah Harari that might explain humanity history in a record time!
"Tribes existed way before our species. The archaic humans adopted the group configuration because it was easier to survive as a group when they were merely marginal creatures among many other animals and predators. For millions of years, their position in the food chain used to be in the middle. Humans jumped to the top with the rise of our ancestors!
That spectacular leap from the middle to the top had enormous consequences. Other animals at the top of the pyramid, such as lions and sharks, evolved into that position very gradually, over millions of years. This enabled the ecosystem to develop checks and balances that prevent lions and sharks from wreaking too much havoc.
As lions became deadlier, so gazelles evolved to run faster, hyenas to cooperate better, and rhinoceroses to be more bad-tempered. In contrast, humankind ascended to the top so quickly that the ecosystem was not given time to adjust. Moreover, humans themselves failed to adjust.
Most top predators of the planet are majestic creatures. Millions of years of domination have filled them with self-confidence. Sapiens by contrast is more like a banana-republic dictator.
Having so recently been one of the underdogs of the savannah, we are full of fears and anxieties over our position, which makes us doubly cruel and dangerous. Many historical calamities, from deadly wars to ecological catastrophes, have resulted from this over-hasty jump."
