What if we consciously created our reality?

What if we consciously created our reality instead of followed the rules and dogmas of society?

Steve Jobs famously elaborated: “When you grow up you tend to get told that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family life, have fun, save a little money. That’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact: Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you. And you can change it, you can influence it… Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.”

I feel like I’ve been listening everyone else but myself for my whole life.
Everything I was told throughout my life from family, friends and colleagues, was some form of control, manipulation, fear, shame, jealousy or even hate for trying to grow away from the crowd.

Until recent years, when I finally decided to really listen to myself, my own desires, values and soul. To really respect my own heart, mind and energy. To heal, break through programming and relearn what’s really important. I’m not yet where I want to be, but I’m on the path there. It’s a journey without a specific goal, but a direction with an intention. It’s not easy, sometimes it’s a brutal and lonely journey, but it feels true, it feels deep and it feels Me.
