Giving yourself a start is the beginning for you to advance in living the life you were created to experience. Madam CJ Walker was the first female self-made millionaire. She became a successful female entrepreneur of her time. She started a hair care business then expanded by opening a beauty college and manufacturing company. She advanced in life by giving herself a start. She said, "I got my start by giving myself a start." What caused Madam CJ Walker to give herself a start? Her self-awareness. Your self-awareness is your power to advance in life.
Your self-awareness is available for you to know how to advance in life. Self-awareness is a state of conscience to know how you should be in harmony with your spirit, soul, and body to live your life aligned with life principles. The purpose of self-awareness is draw from your spirit your authentic nature in connection with your mind, will, and emotions.
The word “educate” is derived from the Latin word “educo,” meaning to educe, to bring out, to draw out, and to develop from within. It’s important for you to use personal growth to develop from within and draw out your conduct, character, skills, abilities, talents, dreams, goals, vision, influence etc. to experience the fullness of your potential.
The first part of self-awareness is for you to identify where you are at in life. This includes examining your spirit, soul, and body without self-judgment. Your circumstances, failures, unfavorable past, or rejections with self-judgment creates barriers for you to connect to your truth to advance in life. This lead to you experiencing negative emotions of doubt, fear, unworthiness, anxiety, frustration, dread, depression, etc. which cancels out you giving yourself a start.
This is the reason Adam went and hid after he failed God. Through self-awareness, he recognized he failed God, but self-judgment made him feel guilt and shame. God So loved the world, he gave Jesus. He gave Jesus for you to be free to live the life he created for you to experience. He gave you self-awareness to choose if you want to connect to his thoughts and ways to live a life he planned for you when you identify where you are at in your life.
Your self-awareness is your power to give yourself a start with God's love. The following are 3 ways to remain in self-awareness without self-judgment:
1. Show Self-Love. God’s love for you is patient, kind, keep no record of your wrongs, and rejoice in your truth. Have you been patient and kind to yourself? Do hold on to your wrongs? Do you rejoice in your truth? Showing yourself love helps you connect with your authentic nature and prevail when you're challenged to give up on yourself.
2. Have A Positive Attitude. There is more good you experience in your life than bad. Keeping a positive attitude gives you the strength look at the bad in your life without self-judgment.
3. Have An Open Mind. Keep your mind open to examine your life without negative beliefs about yourself. Having an open includes your perspective to give yourself a start without self-judgment.
Madam CJ Walker advanced in life through her authentic nature. It was her self-awareness that gave her the insight to live the life she was created to experience. She advanced in life without a formal education.
How will you use your self-awareness to live the life you were created to experience? How will you start?
