Why Some Of Us Are Not Free

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

Talking is not freedom. Walking around is not freedom. Driving the best car is not freedom. Wearing the best clothes is not freedom.

Freedom comes from love. It comes from self-love. If you don’t love who you are, nothing else matters.

When you love who you are, your own freedom is possible. When you are in love with yourself, you can do all things. Because you just feel great about yourself.

You are free when you do not see obstacles as things that are trying to stop you from achieving your dreams.

‘When you are free, the world is free. When you are not free, the world is not free.’

You are free when you don’t focus on what is not working for you, when you are comfortable with yourself, when you are not afraid to stand for something.

You are free when you are NOT looking for anyone to give you permission to live your life.

You are free when you don’t bring other people down in order to win in life.

You are free when you think about other people, when you put other people first, when you ‘eat last.’

You are free when you are comfortable hanging around people who are different from you.

You are free when you are doing what you love, what makes you come alive. That is what you love. What we love is what makes us come alive. If you are not doing what you love, you are not alive. You are on your way. You are getting there.

You are free when you know that things, great things, take time to get done, that freedom makes things possible.

Think about it. Can you get real things done when you are not free? It is not possible. If you want to live a great life, you must set yourself free. When you are free, you are free to fly, to create, and to live.

The question is, ‘Are you living your life? Are you free to create? Are you free to enjoy your world? If not, what are you doing to make a difference in your life?

When you are free, the world is free. When you are not free, the world is not free.

Why You Should Let Negative Thoughts Pass By

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth

We are human beings. We can’t stop thinking about things. We are going to be thinking about positive things. We are also going to be thinking about negative things. We will never stop thinking. The question is, ‘What are you thinking about?’

When you receive any negative thoughts, don’t fight them, let them go. If you try to fight them, they will never leave. They will keep coming back to you. So to make peace with yourself, just let them go. Do not keep them. If you do, they are not going to add anything to your life. Instead, they are going to make you really unhappy. That is why you see people who are not happy. Their unhappiness has nothing to do with them. It has everything to do with their thoughts.

When you catch yourself thinking negative thoughts, turn yourself back to your real self. If it is not what you want to be thinking about at that moment, you have a choice.

Focus on what is positive in your life. It is what is positive that is going to take you back to where you want to be, who you were meant to be.

No matter what is going on in your life, you can be better. Do not accept anything that is not adding value to your life, to your creative life. You need to get back to yourself. You need to do better for yourself. You need to heal your life. You need to get away from your old lies. If not, you are not going to move forward.

Is that what you want?
