a simple focus for living your authentic life
|
I had a simple idea last night. To live your authentic life, you just need to be your authentic Self. While it is exciting to think about a more authentic life and all of the good that will come with it, there is no way of knowing if the details of the authentic life you envision are what you will actually experience. There’s a chance that by fixating your attention on the details of the life you are pursuing, you may miss paths to a life more true to your authentic Self. But if you focus on living true to your Self and being the most authentic version of it each day, your authentic life will unfold as it should. This doesn’t mean you don’t think about what your future Self might be like—who you would like to become, because I do believe in the law of attraction and manifestation, but the majority of your effort should be on going inward and connecting with your Self, finding the confidence to bring that version out, and continuing to be true to your authentic Self. This sounds easy, but I’ve found that it’s not. Most people might only know a fraction of their authentic Self and struggle with finding the confidence to share even that fraction with the world. The work that needs to be done in order to walk the path of your authentic life begins with truly understanding who you are and meeting your authentic Self. 🎧 Listen to today's Note on the LifeDesign+ podcast. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC |

Last night I went to the opening night of J.Cole’s Fall Off Tour by my Self. The stars aligned and I just happened to be in Charlotte for an AAU tournament with Roman, J. Cole has the first two nights of his tour in Charlotte, and an Instagram post yesterday morning made me aware of the concert. I asked Roman if he wanted to go with me since his only game today wasn’t until later in the afternoon, so a late night wouldn’t affect his play. He said no. I immediately thought that I would go by...
Yesterday I had the privilege of connecting with another member of the Leading Edge, and it was perfect timing, as it often is these days. We had a great conversation, and she introduced a word to me that I absolutely loved when she said it. Well, it wasn’t actually a new word—I’ve heard it and used it countless times in my life, but I hadn’t thought about it in the context of the Authentic Life. “Mattering” “What makes us matter?” This is just another way to ask, “What is my purpose?” The...
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” - Carl Jung For many, the Pursuit of the Authentic Life requires deep introspection to discover what lives in the subconscious and has been writing the script for their lives. The more you connect with your Authentic Self, the more your unconscious becomes conscious, helping you first understand why you find your Self where you are and what is missing from your life, and allowing you to begin...
