[...] Are you doing something that you think you shouldn’t be doing right now? Well, that’s wasted power. That’s meaningless stuff promoted to the honor of being a part of your life. How long are you going to approve this? Why wasting power? [...]

@Ian welcome in my virtual world and thank you for your nice words. The value of my writing (if any) lies in the real life reactions that I can trigger. In simpler words, whenever you feel inspired here, I’m happy

I hope the preparations foe your March workshop in the Romanian mountains are going well.

Hey Dragos It's so great reading this after having met you face to face. This article captures so much of what I'd call 'existential questions'. I'm reminded of the phrase in Spiderman "with great power comes great responsibility". I grew up on Spiderman and am only now at the ripe age of 45 coming to terms with the fact I've got just about as much power as anyone else. And that means facing these great questions and the frustration of all those years of wasted power. But that's all in the past, and the way I'd like to live is to put all these questions in front of me and dive into them. Really great article!

@Liara Covert That’s certainly a valid point, although I slightly feel the comment belongs to the next post. I agree with your last sentence: “You simply chose to view you as you feel”…

Dragos Roa, duality reminds one that reconnecting with soul requires balance. It is possible to step back and resist adopting labels to describe yourself. Rather than decide you are one thing or another, you evolve to sense you are always parts of both. This is why when you feel a given emotion, you also experience its opposite even if this is unconscious and unacknowledged. You gain from every experience. Alternatively, you can decide labels do not exist. You can cease to call yourself average or exceptional. You simply choose to view you as you feel.

@basia thank you for the comment, your interventions always add more value to what I write. I’m especially fond of “success and failure belong to the same category”

Hi Dragos,
While reading this post I again realise how important it is
to remain reasonable and decent in what you are saying.
My very close friend once told me she could remember all the things I had said, and added: ” I probably remember more than you do” . Te words uttered start their own life. Soothing, criticising, no matter what kind they are – they have unbelievable power.
But there is more to it : accepting our limitless power, we are capable of doing and achieving anything. And it would be ideal if we acknowledged the fact that success and failure belong to the same category – they create the fabric of our genuine life.

@Giovanna Garcia Great point! And thanks for commenting here, you’re so right: finding your personal mission it’s like an instant igniter for your unlimited power

Hi Dragos

When we learn our purpose for our life, it is like finding the love of your life. You will never let go, you will not forget about it, you will see clearly where you stand, it it a fire that burn inside you, you will fight for it. That is how I feel about my life’s purpose.
Thank you,
Giovanna Garcia
