On Finding the Inner-Strength & Emotional Wellbeing You Need to GET THINGS DONE…

Peace,



As we all know (and as you’ve probably already experienced for yourself), one of the major barriers to being efficient and productive is being unable to maintain a constructive emotional state.



blog talk radio iconSince issues of self-worth, anxiety and other deep-level emotional issues are tied up with progress, productivity and success, I put together a Blog Talk Radio program specifically to deal with this kind of thing called, “A Discussion on OVERCOMING DEPRESSION & Gaining the Emotional Strength You Need to Survive in Today’s Crazy World…,” and it’s going down tonight (July 28th, 2010) at 6pm eastern time.



A little over the top, I know, but I’m doing this for two important reasons:

1) emotional wellbeing is KEY to setting and achieving goals, and

2) I’ve seen too many people close and important to me fall victim to depression, low self-esteem, anxiety and other things along those lines.



sister depressed with head downOn a deeper note, it troubles me to see so many promising, intelligent and talented people be completely held back simply because no one showed them a better way to “process” their emotional state, and ultimately, if you think about it, there’s no way I could talk about being productive, getting more done and disciplining yourself WITHOUT ALSO talking about finding inner-strength, building self-esteem, and confronting the issue of depression if it’s there and needs to be addressed…



(Fortunately) I was able to overcome a personal battle with depression back in 2005…I’ll share how I did so on the call, and we’ll also “build on”:

- the skills and tools for inner-strength and emotional wellbeing,

- a story about how I overcame my personal bout with depression and the lessons learned from that,

- how to be there for others as encouragement during their time of need,

- how to build up your own sense of self-worth,

- a simple method for MASTERING your self-talk so that you can use your mind to consistently empower yourself.

and A LOT more…



Again, it’s tonight (7/28/10) at 6pm eastern time; here’s a link to the blog talk radio channel…you can listen in on the page OR simply call (347) 215-8122 at that time.


————— Research & Reference Material for Tonight’s Call ————

First, here’s the full video that those audio mixdown clips were originally from…this is powerful:



the dragon slayer with a heavy heart by marcia powersAnd here’s a link to The Dragon Slayer with a Heavy Heart, probably the best book I’ve ever read about practical strategies and mental tools to maintain that state of wellbeing and serenity we all need to cope with demands of life.



Also, here’s a link to Think Right Now Intl’s Advanced Autosuggestion Programs. I’ve been using these for a couple years too…check them out) and to the Depression Project, “a network of people applying compassionate, transparent and effective action.”

Some Serious Advice from Holistic Health MASTER Dr. Liala Afrika…

Peace,

Here’s a great video series I found while doing research for Wednesday’s call…a dramatized conversation between Dr. Liala Afrika and a couple of “junk food eaters”.



Dr. Afrika is a nutritional consultant, a massage therapist, a historian, a certified addictionologist, an acupuncturist, a writer and a Doctor of Naturopathy. I support this brother and his work around African Holistic Health because it saved me from depression: as I was saying on the radio show earlier this week, I was at an extremely low emotional point at that time which his advice helped me to transcend and overcome…

Is the “Conscious Community” Really that Conscious Anymore??? (Knowledge as a Form of SELF-DECEPTION)

Peace,

Do The Knowledge is the name of this website…it’s originally a 5% (Nation of Gods & Earths) concept, where “do the knowledge” means to look, listen, observe and respect…



5% mathematicsFor the site though, I mean it in a slightly different way: I mean DO as in the verb meaning, “to take action.”



So here, “doing the knowledge” means living up to your standards, doing what you need to do to realize your potential and operating at “the perimeter of your circumference.” It means “stop acting in ways that are no longer appropriate for your current age and intellect level.”



(Ultimately, I’ve found that this boils down to techniques and approaches for personal productivity and psycho-emotional healing…)


———— Gaining Knowledge as a Form of Self-Deception ————

african mask with black backgroundI started this because I saw people using knowledge as a mask to cover up deeper level, personal issues (I was here for a long period of time myself).



I noticed a tendency for people – particularly in the conscious community – to learn a lot of interesting things but to use it as a facade… as a way of appearing to have self-esteem, personal progress and overall togetherness all while avoiding their real life problems.



I noticed people using knowledge in the same way many use television, sex, or drugs: to escape the reality of their situation.

It’s simply another form of self-deception: some of us are deceiving ourselves by thinking that if we learn enough metaphysical knowledge, conspiracy theories, or ancient-cultural, impressive sounding concepts that we’ll somehow

black person hiding1) allieviate deeper level self-image issues,
2) resolve or be able to ignore actual problems,
3) not take responsibility for what’s happening in our lives because society’s jacked up…


———— The Bottom Line ————

- We need to learn to process our emotions better,
- We need to learn to communicate with one another better,
- We need to learn to set and achieve goals (sucessfully), and so on…



…because without these fundamental life skills, we’re jeopardizing whatever movement we stand for.



It’s self-evident: if you suffer from low self-worth, a lack of self-confidence or deeper level emotional turmoil of any sort, YOU’RE PUTTING ALL OF YOUR MAJOR LIFE GOALS IN DANGER.



black potter working on clay ceramic artYou owe it to the people who count on you, to the people you can help and touch with your work and most importantly to YOURSELF to clear up the internal debris that’s barricading you from your full potential.



That’s why I put a facebook status saying, “If you’re knowledge isn’t solution-oriented, then it’s probably just fanciful and of no real value of at all. STOP WASTING YOUR TIME.



And that’s why (at this particular point in time) I help my readers to enhance their personal productivity, discipline themselves, train their ability to focus, cultivate their intelligence, improve their self-confidence, etc. etc.
