A decision is the first step toward any change. It is important to give each of our decisions the necessary energy.
Our intention must be clear, serious, and firm. But what exactly are we deciding on, and what or who are we really going to change?
The answer is—ourselves, our emotions, our perceptions, our behaviors, and above all, our awareness.
We often fall into the trap, for example, when we start meditating or practicing various techniques, of thinking that now everything is fine with us, that we are progressing, everything is clear to us, but our partner—oh, they are this and that, they don’t want to change, they are the obstacle, etc.
Unfortunately, that’s not the case. The obstacle is only ourselves; the partner is merely our mirror. They came into our life with a certain plan, with the purpose of our growth.
This is the broader picture of the Universe that we don’t know and are unaware of when we enter into a partnership.
The boulder that seemingly blocks our path will have to be chipped away layer by layer, and all the smallest pieces must be removed by ourselves. Don’t fear the blows and scrapes that come with revealing your true self.
