Introspective Guides: Creating a Positive Relationship to Insecurity - Episode 73


Listen Later

e all have conditioning, whether we recognize it or not. Layers upon layers of influence from our parents, friends, and culture. We are generally led in the direction where the biggest variable is personal achievement, financial security and family loyalty, and rarely do we focus on some kind of greater interconnectedness to the world. It is so important that our identities grow beyond our immediate circles and recognize that we all need to be responsible because our planet is in jeopardy. Slow down with Robert to ask some central questions we often speed right past. What really would inspire me and allow me to be most connected to myself and others? Am I living the life that I believe is going to be the most fulfilling, especially considering I'm living in the 21st century? Taking time regularly to concisely ask these introspective questions will enable you to follow your own wisdom and become your own authority.

Robert reminds us how crucial it is not to ignore the fact that we are only here for a little while. Acknowledging our mortality can open us up to inspiration and creativity to use our unique talents, time, energy, and resources to create opportunities for ourselves and others and in return find deep fulfillment. We are living at a time when our planet and democracy are deeply threatened. If we do not change our identity as world citizens we are likely setting up a planet that is in serious jeopardy of collapsing. The stakes have never been higher and because of this, we are going to have anxiety, emptiness, and insecurity.

It takes a lot of courage to face our challenging feelings and then to pause so we can be clear what they are telling us. Insecurity shows the desire to feel secure in a variety of areas. It's a feeling that shines a light on what you need. If you can spend some time with your anxiety rather than rejecting it, like a disease, you have a chance of finding sources of peace and relaxation. Using the Introspective Guides and real examples Robert and Dave invite you to support yourself to open to new depths inside yourself.
