This Is What You Get When You Lose Touch With Yourself

You are in touch with yourself when you live in harmony with yourself. We suffer when we don’t listen to our true selves, when we don’t pay attention to what is going on within us.

You hear more when you listen. You hear yourself when you listen to yourself, not to others.

We don’t know who we really are because we are busy chasing wordly things. You can change it. Eckhart Tolle once said, “When you lose touch with inner stillness, you lose touch withb yourself. When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world.”

People lose touch with themselves when they are not comfortable with themselves, when they don’t trust themselves, when they don’t love themselves, when they are sacred to face their lives. Remember, if you do not have the gut to face yourself, then you are going to find it difficult to live a peaceful life.

No matter what, be there for you. If you are not there for you, no one can be there for you. And if you are there for yourself, for you, no one can be against you. As Dr Phil McGraw put it, “You’re only lonely if you’re not there for you.” Don’t let anyone tell you how to live your life.

No matter what is going on in the world, always listen to your soul. It is important. And do not be scared to be your own cheerleader. Be your own friend. Love yourself, no matter what. As Maxwell Maltz once said, “If you make friends with yourself, you will never be alone.” If you don’t want to be alone, you must be comfortable with yourself.

If you are not comfortable with yourself, you are going to be alone. Do you want that for yourself?

Are You “Living For Your Fictional Self?”

Be comfortable with yourself. Stop trying to avoid yourself. It is not going to work. Because you can’t get away from yourself, from your mind, from your body, and from your soul. Other people can get away from you, but you cannot get away from yourself.

Since you can’t get away from yourself, then what are you going to do to reconnect with yourself, with your inner world?

Phillip C. McGraw says, “Living for your fictional self, whether it is a totally dominant force or just a partial one, is a dangerous state of being that diverts, absorbs, and robs your life energy.” Do not deceive yourself. When things are not going well for you, do not hide it. If you hide it, you are not deceiving others, you are deceiving yourself. You are stealing from your own life. You are crushing your own growth, your own success. Life is precious. Do not do that to yourself.

Your life matters. Start living it. Stop believing in where you were yesterday. Stop thinking about what didn’t go your way. It is a waste of your precious time to focus your attention on things that are no longer with you. Learn to let go. Letting go leads to freedom. When you let go of things that are eating you alive, you will attract better things, life-giving things into your life.

Do not fake it till you live it. Live it till you fake it. Do not fake your life. Be you, no matter what. Be comfortable living with yourself. If you cannot live with yourself, then where are you going to go?
