Theories on the Evolution of Self

There are many distractions in life

These distractions hinder your evolution

Here are some of the things that I am trying to put in to practice to promote my own growth and evolution

First and foremost

Unplug the television

Television can introduce negative or controversial things in to your life. I’m not judging those things as right or wrong. I’m only saying that it is easy to get wrapped up in politics, religion, and Drama that can sap your energy and inspire debates that can wear you down emotionally and psychologically.

So unplug that television, if you want to watch an individual show then watch it online. In most situations you can avoid the bad news and the political commercials by doing it this way.

Disconnect yourself from Politics

 “(Insert Deity here) Grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things that I can and the wisdom to know the difference.”

·       There will always be people that want things different then they are now.

·       There will always be people that want to blame others for their situation.

·       You can’t change it anyway so why get yourself all worked up over things that you cannot change.

Disconnect yourself from Organized Religion

·       You can take the most wonderful thing in the world and ruin it by organizing a belief system around it.

·       Study your beliefs, do what feels right but don’t let others pressure you in to becoming part of their organized group.

·       Never believe that you are absolutely right, even if you have been taught from birth that there is only one way. There are billions of people in the world and for you to believe that the “One and only way” was given to a tiny group of people in some rural community and that you were lucky enough to be part of that group is just arrogant nonsense. Don’t fool yourself. Your learning as you go just like the rest of us.

·       Any person that stands up and says that his or her way is the one true way and that you have to do what they teach or you’re going to be punished for it is probably living in their own little world of confusion and their attempt to “teach” you is part of their own attempt to feel ok and safe by controlling the environment surrounds them.

·       If anybody for any reason brings up their God in a normal conversation, it is more than likely an attempt to convince either you or themselves that they are doing something for the right reason. If they weren’t subconsciously questioning what they were doing or saying they probably wouldn’t feel the need to play their religious trump card. In my experience people that introduce the words church, god, Jesus, Allah or any of the other popular religious icons in to a normal conversation have some ulterior motive even if they themselves don’t realize it.

If you notice that you are doing this look within yourself and try to figure out what it is that made you feel the need to prove yourself to another person. By working on the cause of the insecurity you may eventually lesson the need to play that card.

Having to be right

·       Right and wrong are relative terms. There isn’t anything that relates to a concept, an idea, a belief, or even a law that is set in stone. Don’t waste your energy debating whether something is right or wrong. Many situations are un-resolvable and it takes so much energy that could be put to better use.

Don’t Fall For the Lies

·       Don’t believe the people that say that something has to be done a certain way, think outside of the box.

·       If getting an education isn’t for you and you like working in a manual labor job for lower wages then by all means do what makes you happy.

·       If your father tells you that college is a waste of time and you desire an education that will propel you in to the career of your dreams just agree to disagree and go for it.

·       Just because something is good for one person doesn’t mean that it is good for everybody. We are all on our own path.

·       This category also includes things that some call conspiracy theories. Don’t believe what anybody says on either side of them. Do your own research and find the truth no matter what it is.

That’s all for now

These are just my theories and nothing more.
This is an incomplete work

I will work on revising it later.
