Towards Your Self-Mastery

Towards Your Self-Mastery

As a human being, you naturally aspire to achieve something. You want to be a contribution, and to be of value to people around you. Of course, in the process you want to experience joy, happiness, and fulfillment.

However, you have to be in control of yourself in order to make positive changes in the world. Self-mastery in relation to your life simply means that you must have balance in the major areas of your life: finance and career, relationships, health, spirituality, and personal empowerment and recreation.

These underlying elements provide the foundation for achieving balance in your life:

• Let your passion for living give you joy.

• Act consistently to pursue your passion.

• Use every daily 24 hours wisely.

• Fill your mind with worthwhile information, and wisdom.

• Keep company with eagles, and not chickens.

• Keep your positive and negative emotions under control.

• Accept people, and situations, and allow them for what they are.

This will minimize inner frustration, emotional turmoil, worries,

and depression.

Self-mastery is not about perfectionism, nor do you have to be as evolved as Buddha or Jesus to be self-mastered. If you were sent on a quest to find “the perfect tree,” after investigation and discussion you would probably conclude that there is no one perfect tree.

It is the same with human beings. Each of us has his/her own unique way! This concept applies in the same way to self- mastery. Your quest is to be the most excellent person that you can be. Optimize your own uniqueness, and be comfortable with yourself.
