Seeing things as they are is how we get power over them. And that’s when we’re able to shift/create things.

When we’re able to remove the layers of emotions and meanings we put on top of things, we’re able to see them as they are: neutral.

Inherently, things are just facts, information, data.

Not good, nor bad. Not right, nor wrong.

And that’s when we get power over them. Because now there’s no fear, no attachment, and we’re able to see things soberly, with rationality - and act from there towards what we want.

I started to understand this as I studied psychology, and how the mind works. But I only truly realized this when I started to apply this in knowing myself.

We all have very distorted ideas about ourselves. We have a hard time seeing ourselves objectively from the outside, because we’re too close to what’s on the inside.

Our emotions, beliefs, and judgments create a big blur that prevents us from seeing what we are and what we’re not in reality.

So as a solopreneur, creating a business felt so hard years ago because I wasn’t clear about my true potential, and the good I had in me to offer to the world.

Creating a brand felt even harder because I wasn’t solid on what I was and what I was not, so I got easily shaken by lack of validation, criticism, and being rejected.

Only when I got to know myself truly and objectively as a high value tool (literally: as a tool), I got my power back. And I was able to start creating an authentic personal brand and an aligned business from there.

This is how I understood that self discovery comes first.

Not self discovery in the cute sense of it, but in the ‘seeing yourself rationally from the outside’ sense of it.

​

If this resonated there, this is your call to start wearing your truth lens so you can shift and create things from an energetic leverage stand point.
