Do you truly believe that you are worthy of your goals and dreams? Do you find yourself qualified to be successful?

Look deeper within, and without any pretense, listen to the answer that your Inner Self says back to you.

Are you worthy enough?

Dear Ones, You Are Worthy Enough of whatever goals and dreams that you wish to achieve. No matter how absurd that is or laughable when others know about it. Every single human is worthy enough to have goals and dreams, worthy enough to have dreams about them, and eventually achieving them.

But now, do you have of what it takes to actually living your dreams?

The No.1 reason why most people seem couldn’t achieve their goals and dreams is not because of their knowledge and skills and definitely has nothing to do with social status, etc.

I will introduce you to these three fundamental ingredients, which play a BIG part in your life right now, every minute, every second of your life.

No.1 The Relationship Between You and The Higher Self

We are living in a noisy era where news travel fast, information abundance becomes suffocating, trends changing faster than before, and we are being expected to be ‘on’ 24/7 knowing what’s going on in the world and by missing any one of them makes us feel insignificant and decidedly less than the person next to us.

These external noises really challenge us in terms of private times for me-time. When everything outside is fighting to grab and retain our attention to it, unconsciously we are investing our time to it. Therefore, less time for ourselves, more time for them.

But, do you know, Time and our Life Force is the only thing that is genuinely belong to you. So, even if consuming social media or news are ‘free’, you are actually exchanging it not using money, but using your life.

Now, let’s pause for a moment and read that again.

I am telling you this not to bash social media and curse technology, no. A Definite No. It is solely for you to raise your awareness, being aware of how you spend your Life.

So, what this has to do with reaching our goals and dreams? Well, it’s simple.

If you don’t have time for yourself, then you will likely less time to ‘listen’ to your heart (The Higher Self) and before you know it, the voice within stays silent ‘forever’.

Without actually having an inner navigation system, you will definitely get lost. Being lost in the external noise and being blinded by ‘what they say is good’ and blindly follow.

Without clarity of heart and mind, you will be swayed left-right of the newest technology ‘needed’ for your success. You ended up learning a skill or investing in new thing not because you actually need it, but because Who-and-Who says it’s great and giving great results. Therefore, it tiggers your deepest fear of being late for the success finish line compared to others.

And everything that is started because of fear, will only ended up in getting more fear.

Practitioners of Qimen uses their Guardian of Destiny as their ‘North Star’ and guide. Bazi pratitioner can use their Day Pillar to refocus and realign whenever needed.

The noisy external world will fill in the silent inner world. The goals and dreams that you have wanted might not originally yours, but you adopted it because You-Know-Who ‘shared’ it’s their goals and dreams. And because of it, you decided to live others people’s life, other people’s goals and dreams.

No.2 How Well Do You Know Yourself?

Just a couple weeks ago, my teacher encourage us (me and several students) to embark on personal mini-workshop of Know Yourself. We use the workbook as a guidance for our journaling activity and when we discovered blockages within ourselves, we clear the root cause and continue on.

Now, understanding myself is not a new topic for me. I seldom found myself discovering new things about myself from a new light. Slowly, I collected all that pieces and created a mini system as a guidance whenever I need it.

So, why know yourself is crucial ingredient for you to achieve your goals and dreams? I am sure many of you wonder why. I will use ‘running’ as our analogy this time.

You are a runner and you see finish line up ahead. What comes into your mind about the factors that come into play in order for you to arrive at the finish line and be the winner? M.A.N.Y. That’s correct. First, you need to know your stamina. Slow runner with weak endurance might take longer to reach the finish line. Second, are you wearing a suitable shoes? Maybe you need shoes that can support your flat feet, softer shoes, harder shoes, compression socks…? Third, the track. Is it straight or curvy, designed track field or road or on bare earth?

Know about yourself is not only about you. It is also revolving around who you are, your personality, your ups and downs experiences, your preferences, past and present traumas, etc.

Let’s come back to the running analogy.

As a runner, you would know whether you have a good endurance, good posture, the right muscle training, warming-up and cooling down poses, breathing technique, etc. In short, running is NOT only consist of the act of running. Everything that makes up your ability to run, you should be very aware of it if you want to reach the finish line with the least amount of discomfort and injuries possible.

The shoes represent knowledge, information, nobleman, teacher, advisor, skill, tools, certain technique and formula that will help you to achieve the goals and dreams. If you don’t know yourself, a great formula like ‘Five Ghost Carries Treasure’ in Fengshui which is a powerful technique, will be of no use for you. Maybe it is just not ‘applicable’ in your situation, or maybe you just can’t afford it.

The track of where you run represents the life journey. Some people might opt for straight-sprint run, and would rather prefer the cross country-hiking trail run. Therefore how you go through the track and reach the finish line will be very different. Some people reach their ‘finish line’ aka ‘success’ very fast and then they reach plateau in their life. Some people dream big therefore the journey is much more interesting as they might need to make some pit stops along the way.

I’d personally say, people oftentimes regard their life journey will be exactly the same like That-Celebrity or That-Influencer. They look at their life and grade their personal life using others scoring system. Is that logic?

If you still have the heart to achieve your goals and dreams, I seriously suggest you to start Knowing Yourself.

No.3 The Filter and The Perception

When I introduce myself as a practitioner of Chinese Metaphysics studies, especially Fengshui, almost immediately people will ask me such questions, ‘why consultants give different answer?’, ‘I heard that such and such consultant give advice like this-and-that’ is that true…’

The main point of their questions is one and the same which is, why different people give different answer to the same questions, therefore this kind of variety leads confusion and conflicting feeling to some.

Since we are a different people, with a unique mixture of unique personalities, experiences, culture background, social circle, skills, abilities, etc, don’t you thing it is only normal when we are different almost in every way. We are unique and there is only one of us in this Universe.

Besides of what I have mentioned above, all of us are prone to filters that are being imposed to us consciously and unconsciously.

Since childhood to adulthood, we have been ‘collecting’ these filters and store them in the subconscious mind. Only and when certain conditions are met, then we can see how the filters skewed — distorted — enhance the reality resulting in colorful perception.

Are you 1000% sure that in order for you to be successful is by wearing the It-bag or driving Bugatti? Are you sure? Because there will be people say to you that it is actually depend on what kind of success that you are looking at. Maybe the finish line is to wear It-Bag or drive Bugatti, but if you want to opt for other type of success, that’s okay too. Just make sure that you are aware of your motivation and intention.

To be truly able to achieve your goals and dreams, you will need to understand where you are right now, what are the filters (not limited to belief system that you adopt) that you use to see the world, and then change it, let it go, or neutralize it in order for you to be able to achieve your goals and dreams.
