The Barrier Breaker

Who am I?  A huge question that is so difficult to answer.  A major barrier right there.The simple and universal truth is this:  "You are the most important person in your life."  Weather you believe it or not- it's true. Sometimes that's hard to get your head and heart around, and there are many reasons for that... Our identity is often an unconscious part of us. Often we carry around an image of who we are and we go into automatic behavior of performing the identity that we never chose ourselves. It was inherited from our parents, grandparents..Most of the time for all of us, it's an identity pattern of being the strong one, the one that keeps it all together, the one that never (or seldom) says no, the one that has a life that looks good on the outside... the people pleaser. These "identity types" or patterns, were given to us from a very young age. They acted as masks of belonging, love and safety. So- we were conditioned to act, behave and think a certain way according to our "inherited" and unconscious identity patterns. This pattern forms an identity.  When the identity is inherited it acts as a shield and a mask that protects us and at the same time it stops us from getting to know who we really are when we peel of the layers of automated behaviors.  When we dare to drop the mask.However, identity is never constant.  But when you chose to look at it with curiosity and wonder- you have taken the first step to open up and discover more of who you really are. This short episode is a "throwback" from a few years back. It's raw and real and gives you a starting point how curiosity acts as a BARRIER breaker and kicks of the show- YOUR life.

Life gives you what you need, not always what you want.Maybe that's true, even though most of us don't want it to be.Because we naturally chase our desires.What we want in our careers.Our relationships.Our health.Our wealth.Our lives.But what if getting what you need is exactly what brings you closer to what you truly want—even when you can't see it yet?This episode is about being forced to listen.To listen beyond what I thought I wanted.Beyond my plans.Beyond my expectations.Beyond the story I was telling myself.So open your ears.Open your mind.Open your eyes.Open your heart.And listen.Because sometimes the barrier isn't standing in your way.Sometimes the barrier is showing you the way.
