The terms "self improvement" and "spirituality" are not too often spoken in the same breath, but I think it is time to redress the balance. Let us be clear here: Spirituality does not mean religion, (although it does not exclude), and even the improvement does not require you to give up all your knowledge, history or beliefs. If you want a meal to "improve" your dinner, you just might be a little salt - you would hardly be the whole litterremoved.
To understand why self improvement and spirituality are so closely intertwined, perhaps we should both agree on definitions. "Spirituality", for the purposes of this paper in any case, means accepting that there is a strength, intelligence, or is greater than our everyday intellect. This is the intelligence that grows like an oak from an acorn knows planets spin on their axes to heal and you cut your finger, without the slightest interference from you. It exists, like gravity, regardless of whether you believe it or not. It does not seem to be separate from all, as an orthodox God tend to be located, but is an integral and essential for the existence of everything.
Self improvement is the art and the desire to grow, to know how a person with the intention of more and more and more to share with, perhaps, life.
Are we still on the same page? Great, because now you will quickly see how> Improving self is virtually impossible without a recognition of spirituality. It's more of an enabling, really. You need to allow intelligence the possibility that a larger, if you really want more from life.
Do you remember the last time you have a "flash of genius" had? (An interesting nickname for a brilliant idea, because in reality, every thought you ever produced brain waves. But we are on train). Where do you think that brilliant idea camefrom? You can not make you a flash of genius idea - they just come, right?
If you assign these rare events is not the existence of something other than everyday thoughts to think, consider the even more common occurrence: conversation. The interview is the most amazing phenomenon when you think about it. It is spontaneous and uncensored, and yet one can formulate in the smallest of the psychological factors, the small fragment from a concept in your mind a goodconstructed argument and make complex points. Get out of your mouth will declare outlet sentence by sentence to the most complicated and complete words! Even more amazing is when you come up with a metaphor. How does your thoughts together images and emotions which, when finished Well, it is for anyone who has a rough experience like yours to convey what you mean?
We take this knowledge for granted, but it will stimulate you and accompany you when you learn how to listenit. Meditation - the real calming the cacophony of your mind - is a way to use that everyone should exercise, like running or swimming can be different.
The conclusion we come to is counter-intuitive to our twenty-first century, Pell Mell of noise and mindless entertainment.
Self improvement - the improvement of the self - comes primarily from an increase in activity or no effort from your brain, as if wringing a towel dry - but fromactually do and simply less to go within and listen to music.
Inside, in no particular place, your mind - and your spirituality. This is the part of you that you know when to meet and if you do not know that feels good when you make the right choice and irritable when you hesitate, hesitation, or follow the crowd against your instincts.
Self improvement is not a trick. It is to be easy.
