Say Hello

In today's episode, I explore the sources of unsteadiness in my life and how I can address them. I reflect on how losing sight of what is within my control and what isn't can lead to feelings of unsteadiness. At first, I attribute this to external factors such as work and finances, but I ultimately realize that all unsteadiness comes from within. I recognize that my environment does not determine my level of calm, stability, or serenity, and that these instead are directly related to my judgment and reasoned choices. I acknowledge that taking responsibility for my own emotions can be difficult but also empowering. I commit to making a concerted effort to avoid harmful and disruptive judgments that cause more trouble and instead to focus on what's within my sphere of choice, in order to achieve stillness and peace. I encourage others to also take their lives back into their own hands, and to regulate how they handle themselves, as this has an impact on their environment. 

Thank you for listening and joining me on my journey of self-discovery!
