Unlocking Inner Peace One Step at a Time

Part I of this podcast series has covered a basic understanding of our mind, with an emphasis on life’s essential facts. We have now understood how to build self-belief, grow a healthier subconscious mind, develop the courage to face any situation and finally build solid self-confidence and self-esteem.

Part II of this podcast series uses these foundational qualities to cultivate consistent habits. These habits are not difficult to follow but it takes a decent amount of willpower, determination, interest, discipline, and sincerity to develop a new habit. But this is entirely in our control. If you want to add a good habit to your life, you must focus on doing it daily. When you practice a habit regularly, it becomes a part of your everyday routine. The key to victory is maintaining consistency.

Have you ever felt as if stress, anxiety, depression, or anger is controlling you? Do you often act impulsively? Do you say things you know you shouldn’t, only to regret later? Or do you feel disconnected from your feelings and emotionally numb? These can all be signs that you need to work on building your emotional intelligence. By learning to keep stress and emotions in check, you’ll not only improve your communication with others, but you’ll also be able to get off the ‘emotional roller coaster’, get rid of mood extremities and bring balance to your life.

Something + Acceptance = Positive Emotions

Something + Non-acceptance = Negative Emotions

Life has not been designed to oblige your emotions; your emotions do not change anything in life. When you face a consequence, you have to accept it. This acceptance is a positive emotion. If you ever feel a little disturbed at any given stage in your life, you must ask yourself this question: who or what am I not accepting that is disturbing me? When you do this, you turn non-acceptance into acceptance. Acceptance will ensure your positive emotions are preserved.

Being a wonderful person with purity in thoughts does not depend on your religion, status in life, skin color, political views, or culture. It depends on how you treat others and how you treat yourself. Other factors too decide what makes a person remarkable, and many notable writers have explained these factors in their writings, but being the right person won’t matter if we are not good to ourselves. Proof of true spiritual evolution lies in the beautification of our intentions. The world may dirty you at the external level, but only you can dirty yourself inside. If you become beautiful inside, you don’t have to go on a pilgrimage in search of God. God will come in search of you. It is not by conquering the world that you feel complete about yourself. It is by conquering yourself that you feel complete about yourself. This is self-mastery. Compete with the purity of intention. Your intention should be to win, not to defeat anyone.

If the animal within you takes intelligence (human) for a walk, your entire life will be a life of struggle. When your intelligence leads your instincts, the human in you takes the animal within you on the journey of peak performance. The culmination of all these is possible only if you have extreme willpower. It is the power to rise against your instincts. The most incredible moment of pride in your life is when you are growing in your own eyes. The most significant setback is when you fall in your own eyes. This catharsis is called the art of reparenting yourself.

As humans, the relationships we form with other people are vital to our mental and emotional well-being and our survival really. Humans have an inherent desire to be close to other people and to connect with others and build relationships. Healthy relationships (romantic relationships, friendships, or familial relationships – they all count!) can help make our life healthier overall. But what exactly does a healthy relationship look like to us?

Since we have many topics to cover, I will split this chapter into two episodes. This is section 2 of this chapter and this episode will cover the commitment in a relationship, parenting: peer acceptance, possessiveness, and the overprotective and how to overcome the bitter past.

This episode will cover how to face the limitations in our life. Stop blaming the world for anything and everything. Quit complaining about the past and start living a new life by feeling entirely responsible for the choices you execute. No matter how much you yell that the world is wrong, that will not make your life right. It is not a question of whose mistakes; it is a question of whose life. It is your life that is at stake.

Remember this road sign — a U-turn. Whatever the circumstances you face in life, somewhere in the background, always remember and visualize this road sign. You change where you can change; wherever possible, change your approach toward the world. Yes, so many times, you may have to adapt to different circumstances.

This episode will cover how to face failures in life. Life is waiting with abundance, beyond the imaginary finish line. Just move beyond the imaginary finish line and embrace the abundance. Step forward and stay in power. Go for it! You are on your way to greatness. If life puts you down seven times, then get up the eighth time. If life puts you down 20 times, then get up the 21st time. Go on! Don’t give in.

This episode will cover how to develop Self-Confidence and Self-Image. Many of us would like to have higher self-confidence but we struggle to overcome our insecurities, fears, and negative self-talk. With some reflection, hard work, and perhaps a shift in perception, we can work toward a stable and robust belief in ourselves. Our self-image depends on how much potential we utilize. The amount of potential we use will manifest in our quality of performance. Our quality of performance directly contributes to the size and health of our self-image. Finally, our self-image’s size and health determine how much potential we utilize or need to utilize.

We have concluded Part I of this podcast series and gained a strong foundation.  These learnings are going to set the tone for the subsequent episodes and part II topics will help you in developing excellent and consistent habits.

This episode will cover how to develop a robust sub-conscious mind. One-eighth of our mind is the conscious mind, and the remaining seven-eighths is the subconscious mind. The subconscious mind does not understand positive or negative emotions. It only understands deep and shallow emotions. Our subconscious mind is engineered like this: wherever it perceives deep emotions, it believes that you want more and more in your life. It will understand that recurrence is what you are seeking. So, it is important to train our subconscious mind in the direction of deep and positive emotions.
