-THIS IS ONE OF THE STEP BY STEP TO HAPPINESS, ENJOY THE PROCESS -


I am going to write about something I have been thinking deeply about in the last 2 years of my life.

From the moment I have started to be more aware of who I am, I begun to experience very strong emotions. From happiness to intense excruciating pain. I have experienced them all.

I used to divide the good feelings from the bad ones and there is nothing wrong with that. At the same time, I was also escaping from bad feelings, from moments and situations or just from any of my mental trips that could take me to bad sensations. But no matter how much I was trying to escape from them, hiding or just simply ignoring them, they would come back. Always.


They would hold me and keep me stuck in the same position, physically and emotionally.

During this journey of mine, one of the most valuable lessons I have learned was to sit with my feelings.


Bad or good they were part of me, they were there with my persona in that moment. I learned the reasons why;


Sitting with them was my opportunity to understand.

Sitting with them made me resolve many issues.

Sitting with them made me realize how my fear of facing them was actually bigger than the problem itself.

Sitting with them was painful, only the beginning though, when you decide to do it.

These feelings were part of me, CREATED BY ME most of the time. I got to realise something:

  • The first is that I was being proud of myself to be able to sit with them.

  • The second was the self-empowerment I got from it.

I realized it was up to me TO DECIDE how to feel, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED, NO MATTER UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES. It was me deciding what I wanted and what I was feeling.

The point I want to make with this is that life has to be seen as the blend of all the feelings. The one I consider the most valuable is happiness, and the one that makes you feel stuck and immobile is (I will let you think about it on your own, we are all different).

It can take a second to jump from a feeling to another without realizing it sometimes. If we begin to think about life like a process, we NEED the FULL RANGE OF FEELINGS to be complete, to give a sense to life, maybe our approach to difficult situations could even change.

Experiencing the good and the bad of life is important.

I say, ENJOY THE PROCESS.

Enjoy every single moment of happiness,

enjoy every single moment of

pain.

It is part of our life, it is the most important part of our life.

When we are feeling deeply bad,

when you have such a strong, internal, emotional pain that is unbearable,

WE MISS THE FACT THAT WE ARE ACTUALLY ALIVE THANKS TO THOSE FEELINGS.

Those feelings are life, we are able to feel them because we are alive!

Learning to stay with your feelings is the beginning of a revolution for our mind.

When we begin to think about life and their feelings like a journey and no matter what, you have the courage to experience them all, not only the happy ones, you grow and you will realize that most of those scary feelings are not as scary as you pictured them, and that maybe you have created them and they are not real.

I personally always significantly grow from the bad experiences, without them I would not be what I am. Do not take me wrong, it is tough to ENJOY THE PROCESS of all range of our emotions, especially when they are painful.


The first step though is being aware of our choices during our life and being aware that we are choosing to be with our feelings, no matter what kind of feelings they are and, perhaps enjoying the process, is certainly a step towards a new you.

I believe this is the beginning of

all processes of growth and

the first step to know yourself and

decide what you want in life.

Only YOU KNOW. Only YOU CAN.

It is your life and you decide the way.


I can help through this process coaching the best way to achieve your goals in life. I can support you on this fantastic journey called life that gives us so much.
