As our lives get busier and busier, we often lose touch with how we can achieve inner peace and happiness. However, there’s no better time than now to reflect on how we can attain these intangible goals and, ultimately, go beyond our limitations.
In today’s episode, Matt O’Neill and Adam Copenhaver discuss their key takeaways from The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer. They talk about how we can free ourselves from the shackles of negative thoughts and chaos.
Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation:
- You have the power to control your thoughts.
- We create our own reality.
- Be open to experiences.
- Constantly let go to embrace peace and happiness.
- Death is a gift.
- Always choose happiness.
[04:30] You Have an Inner Voice
The incessant negative thoughts in your head do not define who you are. Recognize that your inner voice is just a fleeting opinion of yourself. By doing so, you start gaining awareness of who you are and stop getting caught up with pessimistic thinking.
[13:20] Don’t Close Your Heart
Amid unpleasant thoughts or experiences, we frequently opt to close our hearts and protect ourselves. However, this reaction might only result in suffering. Stop resisting. Remember that you have the freedom to let go and be open to new experiences.
[18:55] Remove the Thorn
You are worthy and loved; believing differently is a lie. Stop putting up with the thorns that cause you pain. It's necessary you understand how you respond to difficulties and recognize that your negative self-perceptions are untrue.
[31:59] Accept Death
Contemplating death teaches us lessons to improve our lives. It allows us to make sure we’re not wasting our limited time on Earth so we can increase the happiness and fulfillment in our lives.
[38:59] Choose to Be Unconditionally Happy
Commit to unconditional happiness. Despite the odds, make a conscious decision to choose happiness over misery. It will teach you all there is to know about yourself, others, and life in general.
