The World Needs Your Self-Actualization
The World Needs Your Self-Actualization
Hey guys!
Today, I am giving you a friendly reminder that we are living in a time where the world deeply needs your self-actualization.
Humanity as a whole continues to operate within a deeply selfish, unaware, and unconscious state.
This leads to all sort of tendencies such as:
Prioritizing individual well-being at the expense of collective well-being (ego-centrism)
Defining success solely by profit, personal achievement, and material gain
Disconnection from others and the natural world
Fear-based decision making
Us versus them mentality
Focus on short-term gain rather than long-term flourishing
Lack of empathy
Lack of holistic perspective
Lack of unity
Which has lead to issues such as:
Environmental degradation
Systemic inequality based on race, gender, and class
The normalization of narcissism
Rising collective mental health problems
Extreme political polarization
Digital addiction
An Information crisis as media manipulation and misinformation has become rampant
A decay in collective trust in community, institutions, media, government, etc (and thus increase in conspiratorial thinking).
War and genocide
And much more.
The path of self-actualization is a multidisciplinary path that fosters your full-spectrum development while utilizing your natural strengths, talents, interests, and aptitudes to uplift the human species and help alleviate collective pain.
This is not the path of becoming some sort of savior, messiah, or great noble person.
It is the path of becoming more and more yourself.
As I was contemplating with Claude AI, it put self-actualization in better words than I possibly could have:
"Self-actualization is the ongoing process of awakening to and expressing one's fullest consciousness and authentic nature. It involves the progressive expansion of awareness, integration of all aspects of self, and realization of one's inherent potential for wisdom, love, and creative expression. This journey leads to increasing harmony between one's inner truth and outer life, deeper connection with all of existence, and natural emergence of service to the greater whole." - Claude AI
As you walk this path, your state of being will become more joyous, blissful, and harmonious.
And so will the world alongside you.
Around 8 years ago, when I was a disgruntled, heartbroken, and depressed teenager, I picked up my first ever self-help book titled The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck by Mark Manson.
While the book was very forgettable and mediocre in my opinion, it gave me some valuable insights on being authentically myself and not caring what other people thought of me.
This marked the beginning of me consciously constructing the path of my development.
Slowly but surely, I took active steps to improve my lack of self-esteem and overall disillusionment with life, and I began to feel way better.
Eventually, I saw the results of personal development and I got OBSESSED.
I even got too obsessed, and there were definitely times on the path where my fixation on personal development was a self-aggrandizing endeavor.
Yet, slowly but surely, as I naturally matured, kept intaking more and more perspectives, studied psychology and philosophy, witnessed the unconsciousness of the world, spent thousands of hours in meditation and contemplation, and had paradigm-shattering mystical experiences, the path began to transcend (yet still include) the personal level and became something more transpersonal, as I saw the process of healing & growth ultimately leading to finding a niche that would allow me to heal and uplift humanity in my own unique way.
8 years later, I feel more purposeful, more aligned, and more myself than I ever have been at any point of my life, I can say with every fiber of my being that I am deeply, truly happy, I feel I am giving valuable gifts to the world, I have an unshakeable trust in God/the universe, and overall feel very calm, grounded, centered, peaceful, and energetically clean the vast majority of my time.
I don’t think my 16 year old self who was just picking up his first self-help book could have imagined in his wildest dreams what he would have learned and experienced from walking the pathless path of spiritual growth and self-actualization, and how great he would feel 8 years later.
And yet, I am still so imperfect, flawed, and unconscious in many ways, and I’m sure that my future self in another 8 years will probably look back on my current self as just a youngling.
The World Needs You
Anyway, my intention for writing this post was to remind you that you are loved, you matter, and you are strong.
There are an infinite amount of niches that currently exist and do not yet exist that need filling to harmonize this planet, which currently, in many ways, is plagued with selfishness, unconsciousness, and devilry.
The world deeply needs your self-actualization, and so do you, for really the path of self-actualization and self-transcendence is the path to wholeness, unity, Love, and God.
If this resonates with you, start doing some of these more:
Intaking new perspectives via books, podcasts, videos, and films
Writing about the perspectives or talking about them with people to harmonize them in your mind
Following your curiosities
Following what makes you excited
Following your heart
Getting out of your comfort zone
Asking yourself questions and deeply contemplating them
Spending intentional time in Nature
Stream of consciousness journaling
Art (painting, drawing, writing, etc.)
Self-inquiry
Meditation
Intentional psychedelic use
Hiring a life coach
Going to therapy
Living at your edge
Embracing and fully feeling your suffering
Traveling to a foreign country
Hanging out with cool people that make you think different
I now am of the perspective that there is not much, if anything at all, that is more worthwhile than utilizing your time, money, and energy into becoming a more whole, authentic, potent, lively, wise, loving, and conscious being.
I mean, what else is there to do?
This path is a major commitment, and what I have found for myself is that the most sincere, genuine, wise, and conscious individuals invested heavily in their own growth, both with their money and with their time.
