TAP - The Amplify Podcast

Resilience comes even in our emotions. We find it in patience, consistency and those periods of self-compassion. It is like going up a flight of spiral stairs that don’t seem to end. Resilience could more or less be a habit that we learn to improve. So let’s say routine and resilience have a direct correlation.

Can one ever go about in life alone? Are we built to lead ourselves without seeking guidance?

We speak about how self-improvement and personal growth are important and highly valuable parts of our life. Guidance is like getting a fresh pair of eyes to help you see those areas you may not see immediately. It requires great humility. It’s a bit like how we need reading glasses to guide our eyes to see better. But will we wear the glasses?

Serenity is not being non-chalant, or ignoring others. The ego is perhaps one of the biggest strongholds to our serenity and its elimination - especially in how we react or respond in situations gives way to serenity. In this episode we share some thoughts on how to build serenity in and around you.

Knowing who you are allows you to live with some purpose and develop satisfying relationships. In this episode we would just ask a few questions and have you answer it and get some insight.

Your sense of being is at the core of everything you do. We see ourselves in a certain way in our minds. There's a constant struggle to conform to what we are attracted to on the outside and what truly gives us peace. This has been shaped by nurture and experiences throughout our life. Unknowingly we form a sense of identity based on outward influences.

So it becomes- I have. Or I do not have therefore - I am...

Consistency is an extremely powerful value for growth, The discipline to do something on a consistent basis is a learned skill. It’s a lifelong work in progress that requires constant practice. Until you’ve had the chance to try something consistently over a period of time, you won’t know if it works or not.

Order is important in every area of our lives, and it isn’t just about organising our material things, It also has to do with organising our ideas and actions. It is the sibling to discipline. We always need to clarify priorities and have the organizational skills to do things in their proper order. This is an important tool for accomplishing anything in life and truly growing We need to know and identify what must be done, when and how….and then an order of priorities must be established.

Generousity can be learned. Like many of these habits and values that help us grow we need to build it— start with the small things, support the little wins of others. We need to remember that generousity comes from a place of wholeness. We cannot give what we don’t have. To give from a place of wholeness we must demand more from our self- not more in quantity but more in quality.

We say this isn’t a religious podcast, but this particular episode is on Faith, and we refer to some of our beliefs as we discuss how faith plays a role in our growth journey. Nanette shares that her faith is rooted in understanding her identity, purpose and how her relationship with God can reveal these. How does your faith affect your growth?

After much chatting about AWARE, we shift to another integral part of the growth journey. FOCUS. We all have areas of our life that we say are important to us, but are we focusing on those things. Have a listen and share your feedback.
