Awakening
The concept of “awakening” is fairly complex but the simplest way to put it is: Realising the rubbish that is present in society. Some people are oblivious to this and don’t really take notice of it and to be honest that was me until I met a few people who enlightened (”awakened”) me. The awakening stage can occur at any period of your life but the younger the better, it will allow you to be self aware and know what’s going on. Also, it will allow you to become more clear and focused on your journey and filter out all the things you don’t think you need, irrelevant things.
My awakening only occurred last year but since then I’ve seen major differences. It was a regular day I was doing some work experience and I was talking to an employee working there, he told me about his focus and how he wanted to make his mark on the world. He then told me about what his lifestyle was like, I was really intrigued about what he did and as we spoke more and more things became more clear and I had developed a more open minded perspective. Since that day the guy is now my mentor, he is older than me and much more experienced than myself which makes him an amazing mentor. I still walk into his shop for advice and a general chat.
The key message I want to convey was DON’T GET TRAPPED WITHIN SOCIETY.
Many people are singled minded and are controlled by society, don’t be one of those people become great. Be you and do what you want to do, the process can occur alone or with people, on my journey it was a person who had slightly pushed me into the process which has made me the person I am today.
Wishing you all the best on your journey
