Day 538 – The believe that what I know is always inferior to what others know

I have done hundreds of presentation in the past two years of my life, from one on one presentation to family presentations to doing presentations for dozens of people at a time. I have found within doing all of my presentations that I am confident, I know what I am talking about, my presentations are always mind blowing. But, this is because the information I am sharing with the people is something they are kind of familiar about, it is about education and learning and developing a child to reach their utmost potential within education and the education system that is here. This is easy, because it is accepted by everyone and within their vocabulary, thus their current accepted and allowed believes and ideas and opinions and the brainwashing of the system as the “normal”. So what happens when I go beyond that, outside of that? I have tested this many times, the results aren’t what one would think or believe. 

To give more context where I am coming from, I have to mention the following – I am part of a group/movement called Desteni, and I have been walking with this group/movement for the past seven years a fascinating journey, one that is most unexpected, many that read this will already know about all of this, many will not, so this is for those that doesn’t know, and to put it short, within this journey I have changed drastically in many ways. The person I used to be cannot be compared to who I am now. I have walked this journey within self-forgiveness and practically applying the corrections, developing self-honesty and common sense, where I do all of this within the principle of oneness and equality, as this is the principle of the universe and we are HERE as everything that exist, thus co-creators of LIFE in fact, we are responsible for what was, is and will come, by walking this Journey we remove all separation within ourselves and to stand one and equal as life to be able to take on FULL self-responsibility for what is here in all parts of life and to enable ourselves to in fact move and direct our realities and thus reality to change what is here to be what is best for all life, stopping abuse of life and creating heaven on earth – this is all written in a very short context – so please do not assume anything, to continue.

So basically walking this process with Desteni, it is my life, the process and re-birthing self as life and taking responsibility for myself as LIFE – and this means no matter where I go or what I do, I am always busy practicing what I learned and implementing what I have realized and testing out everything for myself and keeping what is best for all life, this does NOT mean I go around preaching to people about Desteni or what I have learned from Desteni, this does not mean I go around and make noise about a group or movement, this means WHO I AM is a living expression of what I have walked with the group/movement, this means over the years many things has become natural to me, it has become who I am, so I cannot suppress or just deny it, and thus I speak about it, I share my story naturally, when people ask me or tell me things that they see, I respond from my expression, within self-honesty and common sense, speaking from what is best for all life, this means taking all life into consideration and responding in equality to where each person is at, and always only what I have walked and realized for myself.

So obviously, EVERYONE I meet in this world belongs to a group or movement, may it be religious, and may it be just something “spiritual” or not, every person belongs to some group/movement, everyone has their Idea/believes/opinions coming from somewhere, so this sometimes create conflict and resistance within conversations.

What I have found as a reason is because what people are saying from religious groups, or from spiritual groups or other movements, comes from a very long line of history, so no matter how ridiculous or insane or non-sensical it may sound, it always is “right” – because it has been taken and seen as right for so long, and what I say or share or give perspective on coming from what I have learned and realized through walking my process with Desteni is so NEW, it is seen as just not acceptable, because it is so different – YET makes so much sense, and no one ever denied the common sense, it is always just a resistance or reaction.

In the past, I have given into these resistances and reactions, and actually for a while didn’t share or open up about me and what I stand by, just like how everyone else stand by something, no difference, just different in the message and the application, but I somehow gave power to the other peoples movements/groups and what they preach and say, as if it is more powerful and has more value and that it is more right, just because it is accepted by everyone with ease and comfort.

SO I realized an interesting point, why do people that is within other movements/groups as religion and spiritualism or just causes, so easily accepted each other being here and what they believe in and not resisted within what they say or preach? A side note, YES everyone has haters and people that goes against them, that’s kind of natural, but in general society, if a Christian and a Muslim or Atheist walk together in the same store, they are fine and KNOWING that what each one believe in is different and not the same, yet are okay, feeling some security, and that they are simply 100% okay with what they have as their group/movement within them, and they will preach and wear different cloths to show and display their groups/movements and they will with honor and pride share their principles and believes and everything that goes with it if asked. So the point that I had to investigate is why I am making what I am walking and living as weird and different within ME as and from my group Desteni, and thus creating the response from the outside world exactly what I am experiencing and expecting. And I came the one simple answer – FEAR, Fear of being different and not making it OKAY within me just like how ALL the other groups are doing it, and thus each group just respect each others believes so to say, sure there are global wars in the name of religion, but here in SA, everyone and every religion works together and live together, so I am coming from my reality/perspective as a cross-reference.

So I am applying what I live within what I am living to investigate my actions, where I feel I must keep myself secret and what I do, fear that what I have to say is less valuable or inferior to what others are saying and preaching, just because what they are saying or preaching has been here for thousands of years and so done within confidence.

I will write more on this point to come.

Day 316 – Road To success – Comfort Zone Part 1



A couple of weeks ago I went to a Training course in being a salesman. At this training we discussed a couple of points that is Vital within being a excellent salesmen.

The guy that was training us wasn’t necessarily training us, he was just giving us all the information and within giving the information he gave expressions to express how it can be done, he talked very confident and he was very sure of himself and he did not have any comfort zone.

So what I am going to talk about the Comfort Zone point. Because this guy said the most important thing there is within being a excellent salesmen is to step beyond our own comfort zones.

This I already knew, I learned this from Desteni and within my process and walking my process points.

But hearing this from a Trainer and that it is the most important point was like getting the information from another point of view, so I now bring both sides together, the Desteni Side and the System Side.
First I would like to add why not many people aren’t successful, and this is also what the training guy said, Because NO one ever steps outside of their own comfort zones, this is because we are controlled by fear, and as Desteni has shown me through my own investigation of the material, Fear is a creation only possible when we participate within consciousness as the Mind.

Because as long as we have a mind we have what we call “personal” which is a Personality, and as we all know personalities are Only limitation because we have to have certain things that we LIKE and Dislike to define the personalities, thus we have limitations to what we can do.

Personalities are created through past experiences that then become memories and eventually our thought patterns and what we think about, and what we talk about and what we fear and not fear and like and dislike, so we are defined by experiences (by the past) and thus we accordingly create personalities.

And each and every personality as a consciousness has a comfort zone, this comfort zone keeps the personality in check, in place it constantly defines the personality and thus, when people are asked to step outside of their comfort zones it is usually excused by saying, its not in y personality to do that.
Well obviously it isn’t, because we are consciously thinking about the fears and the insecurities and all the things that we don’t like.

Back to the training day, on this training day the guy asked someone to volunteer, before he even told us what we are volunteering for, I placed my hand in the air as I knew I was resisting going there and thus fearing leaving the comfort zone, I was picked and I was asked to stand in front of the “class”. Everyone else was saying: how can you put your hand up without even knowing what’s happening, how can you volunteer if you don’t even know what you have to do. I said, this is stepping out of my comfort zone.

I did not know the people there, we were all strangers at the same table, I was given “thing” to sell, I did not know what the thing was yet I had to sell it, I was given one minute to sell it.

So here within this test I failed, because the trainer wanted to make a point, he said that we Must step outside of our comfort zone, but if we do not have confidence within ourselves then stepping out of the comfort zone is useless.

As it was proven, I may have stepped out of my comfort zone, but I did not know what I was selling at all, I had no knowledge or information to apply practically once I step out, so I instead was faced with doubt and uncertainly that creates insecurities.

So back to the Desteni message and how to step out of the comfort zone as I have found it through testing it for myself.

Stepping out of the comfort zone is and will always be stepping into the unknown, but then the unknown will become known obviously.

So it isn’t to look for zones that is comfortable, because then we will never find it, we must be comfortable with ourselves as who we are, this means that we as who we are can comfortable be in any zone, because there is peace of mind, peace of mind being no mind, no consciousness as Limitation, it is being with ourselves here as the physical breathing, moving and directing.

I can write the philosophy and the theory, but the question is always How do I practically Live this, how to I go about and practice it.

I use that day at the training as a reference to how I can do it, for instance if I want to sell something, I know that selling a product will be going into the unknown as I haven’t done it before, I know that I will be leaving my comfort zone, as my personality has never had to do that, go there, so I never had t push or face fears or insecurities.

So from the training day I have seen, that I know when I will enter a unknown zone, when I will have to leave my comfort zone, and then I know as I am selling a product I can only do one thing, Give to myself all the practical tools that is and will be required to Direct and move myself effectively within the unknown zone, not from a point of fear, fear cannot be the moving foundation.

So if I know I am going to sell a car, the I know the tools I can give myself is Knowledge and information on the cars, that is knowledge and information that I can PRACTICALLY apply, not useless bullshit knowledge and information that just hangs around, and then I am prepared.

Because the unknown zone will be talking to ALL kinds of customers that want to know what ever they want to know, they want to discuss weird things maybe or not, or they want to know details that I never considered to include within having to know.

So here I how I have applied leaving my comfort zone – when I see a customer, I go to them no matter what I things/belief/fear because I know that is my personality wanting to keep me in the comfort zone, so I step out, I have read about the cars I have informed me and I even take the pamphlets with sometimes.

And what do you know, I say hi and they say Hi and then they ask me questions, it isn’t included in what I red about the cars or in the pamphlets or anywhere I could have gotten hold of it, so here I can have a reflecting moment on what I need to know, what I need to change and get informed on.

And so the more and more I step out of my comfort zone the more and more I learn, and I get confidence, sometime I lose confidence because I can’t answer anything, I use that not as a negative or a positive, I use it as practical feedback.

And this I keep doing, if I never stepped out of the comfort zone I would have never learned, I would have never known what was required or what I need to do, I would have sit and waited in the office and waiting till it comes to me, which is quite impossible.

So the can be taken to all areas of life, in practical meaningful ways, not stupid Nonsensical ways, what we do must be common sense and practical and best for all life, don’t go jumping off a cliff just because you believe that is leaving the comfort zone, that is called stupidity.

To be continued.
