Creating yourself

How can we create ourself ?  We are born to be ourself and we are mould by our experience, knowledge and our environment.  It is a natural process , we only have to flow with it and grow with it.  We are what we are or will be.  Dead wrong.  This perception and understanding is a lazy and disorganized response to our external stimuli or internal needs.  Leaders are not only born but leaders can be created.  Yes, created by ourself.  We can be what we want and we can create a personality of our choice although there is nothing much we can do with our outer appearance. Of course, we can go plastic surgery.

We are inhibited by our fear and our own limitations.  We take things the easy way and taking it for granted and we make no effort to change.  For making changes can be very painful. It is our basic character to avoid painful task and take the easy way out.

Take for example of my daughter M.  She is over weight and she knows it is bad for her health and appearance . She tried a few ways to lost weight but it came back as she likes to sleep and take the easy way out in life. She has gone to the gym , hoola loop, go on a strict diet, eat  only apples,  eat less, etc. It is not that she do not try but the laziness and the fear of pain make her back track and sink into complacency.

It is very natural for a human being to live in complacency because it is very comfortable and cozy.  If we are aware of our own nature, we should plan gradually to move ourself out of the complacency.  Take a gradual and easy way out.  If we do pumping, we should start will only 5 times for a few days and move to 10 times for the next few days  and gradually move up to 50 times a day of pumping after a month of conditioning.   This gradual process will take away the pain  and our mind can enjoy the complacency at the same.   This is a way to create yourself to be what you inspired to be.

This example is only a simple illustration. But, we can apply it to writing.  You can start with reading and writing. You read a  book and sum it up concisely into a page or something like that effect.  Finally, you could improve your knowledge, understanding and writing skill if that is what you want to be. 

To re-create your image or your intelligence depends solely on yourself and it is within our means to achieve it. Don't rush to change as the pain will push you back and shove you into oblivion.  Like the saying goes " slow and steady wins the race".

Namaste.
