What up y'all this is Patrick Haize.  I want to talk about a transition point that we make from being more
Self-centered to more altruistic and some of the traps that can keep us in
kind of like an
In-between state between those two and and then also another trap that can kind of keep us in an over opinionated
conflict based
Altruistic state and and prevent us from moving into more of a practical pragmatic
altruistic state so um
What I want to talk about is something that probably all of us that are watching this video
Have experienced to a certain degree and this is the transition from more of a self-centered perspective to perspective
That's more like world centric more concerned with world issues with problems that are going on
With other people or with nature or with animals or you know, all these sorts of things and this is something that all of us
At most likely most likely experience
There was a point when we were more self-centered, but then you know as we started kind of waking up
It was part of the wake-up process. We started becoming more concerned with
with things outside of us
We started becoming more altruistic and we started wanting to see the world be a more peaceful more beautiful place
This is a natural progression in the evolution of consciousness. But one of the sticking points that oftentimes we run into
is that
We start becoming extremely opinionated
about these new altruistic perspectives that we take and
What happens is we become highly charged and opinionated about them yet?
It's there. They're still in the newer stages of
Transition for us. So therefore we haven't moved to the root to we haven't spent enough time
exploring all of the different
solutions and
really studying all the different structures of reality to come to a clear understanding of
What could actually be a practical step or approach to changing these things?
But at this point we're just still kind of stuck in our emotional reactions
And when we're in this space, we're we're highly reactive
to the dramas in the world or the in Justices in the world, but we haven't
learned how to take those newfound altruistic opinions and
and judgments about the world and funnel that energy into the exploration and the deep study and the
introspection and
and come to an
Understanding of what could actually practically be done
But we're still reacting to it
Basically, we can get stuck in a stage where we're creating more toxicity, and we're not actually helping anything
because until we actually are able to step back and
And clearly integrate all of the issues that are going on that we want to feed that
We feel passionate about and come up with some very
calculated strategic solution Airy
action steps for us to take
but we're actually just responding out of spite or anger or frustration or
You know
Whatever it is grief
Because we don't appreciate these things that are happening. We're actually being more toxic. We're not helping anything
so it's important to appreciate that these strong emotions are good things because they're
They're indicative of the fact that our value system is changing
But also realize that these
Unhonest
strong emotions
Cause more of a problem also, it's not until we learn how to harness those emotions in and channel them in a practical way
so that we can actually figure out how to take proper action to help change things that were actually being part of the solution and
We can also get caught up in a point
Even before this where we're not actually fully able to
Let go of the narcissistic behavior
Meaning we can start identifying with ideals that are more of an altruistic nature
but still be motivated by selfish means an example of how this shows up is we can
basic we have an inferiority complex and want to you know, maybe we don't feel like we're good enough then we
stumble on to a genuine
opinion about a more altruistic value
But that that inferiority complex still kind of puppets that opinion to the extent where we can start
judging and condemning other people to put out so we can put ourselves on a higher level than them and then it becomes more about
leveraging our opinion of ourselves and putting people on a lower level so that we can feed our ego so we can feel better about
You know ourselves be more righteous so we can be self righteous. And then these people can be the troublemakers
That's like one way that it comes out another way
it can come out is it can come out in the in the way where we just
We start feeling like we need to express all of these
spiritual platitudes where we start professing all these very generalized
ideas of love we're all one and this is all about love and love will heal everything and
While that's true, if we don't have an understanding of how the embodiment of love can practically take action and heal things
But we're just professing these generalized truths
the amount of good that it's doing is very little because
It's probably most likely just coming from a space where we want to feel important
We want to feel like we're doing something and so we start expressing these
generalized platitudes of the
Grander love perspective, but we're not actually giving any practical advice to anybody
We're not bringing any practical solutions to the table
We're just professing things that we know that anyone else that has those altruistic opinions
will resonate with so that we can get a responsive of
You know
Positivity from people on one hand and so on the other hand we can actually feel like we're doing something but we're actually really not
doing very much, so
It's important to be able to recognize when we have these more
ego driven desires
and we're also entertaining more of a higher respect the opinions in our
And how those two things can interact together in a way that's you know, other than the best
So eventually what happens is we start becoming more quiet and start really working to understand and figure things out before we start
speaking about them and
We become less
emotionally charged because we realize that to become over emotional about these issues without an actual practical plan is
useless so
We can take our our Drive and our desire to
See a more beautiful place and we can actually funnel that into
The research and to the exploration into the introspection and into the you know
The the meditation all these different practices that can help us actually
actualize a
capacity to create positive change in the world and then we can use
that passion and
Express that passion in a calculated way that actually does create a ripple that is lasting empower
So I encourage you to explore some of these different ideas see in those areas where where you may be?
You know reacting to prematurely and and work to try to channel some of that energy into
self introspection and into the exploration of practical approaches so that you can bring those
Newfound or old found passions for doing something beautiful for the planet into an actual eyes
Practical form that will create a positive ripple. So thanks so much for tuning in
