When we realize that self-assessment is our path to change
and growth, we will no longer fear being truthful with ourselves as we see the
negative thinking and behaviors that are holding us back from our growth and
change. Negative behaviors are a
challenge for our Dual Soul thinking mind to change. We have become very familiar with our
physical traits and our personality traits that have served us in our physical
lives. Shifting our thinking mind as our
Dual Soul into our loving emotions that allows us to live our Ethical Values is
our present-day challenge. We must live
our intention to change before we can actually change, and we must remember
that our ego is not about truth, love, and equality.
Our ego will always continue to make us believe that we have
changed and that we are now being loving, responsible human beings, even as we
lie, cheat, and copy other people. Many
times we mistake manipulation for love. Manipulation
is a form of control which we can use with our friends and family and sincerely
believe that we are living our love. In our self-assessment, we must learn to be
truthful with ourselves and release our belief that we are perfect as we are,
before we can welcome and accept change within ourselves. Any time that we live with an external
perception of life, our thinking mind is manipulating our thoughts and
behaviors without our being conscious of the imaging that is taking place in our own physical reality. As energy beings we remember our past lives,
where we have lived, the people that we know, our inequality, separateness,
control, judgment, inadequacy, dependency, and manipulation, plus many other
negative behaviors.
