Last week on Twitter I started something, I declared the theme of the week. Last week it was to ENGAGE. Go out there and engage someone one (friend, family member, or even still a customer). It didn't matter who just ENGAGE.
This week I continued the theme of the week and declared that this week's theme is to EVOLVE. To become the person you always wanted to be. So how does one evolve? Well, first off, people do it all the time. They do it subconsciously, they know after one time of touching a hot stove that the next time will certainly involve burning flesh. Thus they have evolved. While most evolution is not that blatant, some have taken hundreds of thousands of years, unfortunately we don't have that much time.
So what's a normal human being to do? Simple; achieve consciousness, wake up and get to know who you are. Know that you define yourself and not others. Know that at the end of the day its you that you are going to be with. Know that when you look in the mirror, you know exactly who you are looking at.
With that being said, once you know who you are, you should know who you want to be. In order to achieve that you then have to recognize the challenges and opportunities that will encounter along the way. Along that way you will then start to identify your capabilities and the benefits that those capabilities inherently bring. Then the unknown.
The unknown then comes at a price. That price is waiting. Waiting for something that may or may not come is the price you pay. However, something almost magical happens while waiting for the unknown; you grow, you mature, you have evolved into the person you always wanted to be.
Pipedream? I don't think so. While I was vague in my description but that was for a reason. I wrote that you define yourself and not others, and that means that I recognize that we are all different, what might work for me might not you. Therefore, for me to sit here and say this is the path you must take to become the person you always wanted to be would be downright rude. Therefore, my only advice to you is to know who you are and do something about it. That's truly the only way you can evolve and become that person.
