What will happen if I can accept everything happening in my life?
After reading Busting Loose from the Money Game by Robert Scheinfeld, I started doing experiments to help myself get rid of the worries and troubles in life.
In his books, he mentioned a few important ideas:
- Everything we see is an illusion.
- There is not good or bad in illusion.
- The core of everything we see is feeling, no matter how logical or sophisticated it looks
- Our inner self have infinite power
Based on these ideas, Robert introduced a method called the “process”. By diving yourself into the emotions, you will realize that it will not affect your real self. They are just feelings, but your soul is not injured.
Once you become at peace with the emotion, you can move to the next step, showing your gratitude to your power to create the illusions. After this, you can imagine yourself collecting the energy from your emotions. Then, things will change automatically.
Then I started doing the “process”.
From my own experience, although I am not a firm believer of his ideas, I have to admit that his method is very effective. Even if your goal is not to escape from the illusions in life, it can help you to become more aware of your own emotions and thoughts.
Long before reading his books, I spent a lot of time to learn about Buddhism*, mindfulness and different kinds of methods to reduce my worries. Some of them work, but none of them is consistent. And my awareness is still very low.
However, after practicing “the process”, I discovered that my self-awareness was quite low, despite spending a tremendous of time to study related topics. Whenever I felt worried, or feeling overwhelmed by the things happening in life, I would use reading or watching YouTube videos to escape from reality😅.
But the “process” forced me to look into my own consciousness and emotions. Within a few days, I have already discovered that:
- I was annoyed by my family members’ sleeping habits.
- I was annoyed by their fighting at night.
- I was annoyed by the prospect of having to rely on a 9-5 job.
And more…
Most importantly, after learning about the power of my Infinite Self, I am getting closer to my Real Self. To be honest, I don’t want to get a 9-5 job, even if it can give me more than HKD 400,000 (51054.68 USD) (or more!) per month. My real self wants freedom to work on my own terms and the time for creativity.
(maybe this is why I’ll never become an i-banker, hahaha)
In the future, I will go on sharing my life and my journey to find my real self while living in this “illusion”.
