If one is to be an effective instrument for others, their foundation has to be based in a truth that’s provided by honesty. Life’s effectiveness is a direct result of how honest you are with yourself…
It’s impossible to be all things to all people, but to know your deepest inner truth allows you to be honest with yourself; when someone is drawn to you it’s from their own inner honesty. To know yourself is to develop the ability to be honest with yourself. Regardless of how you are perceived by others, it’s your own inner honesty that provides an effective foundation; the more honest you are with yourself, the deeper and more truthful your foundation.
We can learn from others, but not by trying to conform to the way they want us to be, we have to stick to truth, that is if it’s truly known. The Conditioned Mind creates a world of surface lies, without going to a deeper level to really understand truth, the surface lies become your truth and your foundation for living. Watch what is held onto with a steadfast grip because if it’s a surface lie, it doesn’t matter how much perseverance you have, it will not benefit you or others. Steadfast and perseverance are admirable traits, but only if they’re backed by truth. Not a made up truth, but a truth that’s found in the stillness of the moment that allows for the entering of a deeper place in the heart that few go. To truly know yourself you have to develop the ability to be honest with yourself…
