If we look outside ourselves and measure what we see through the negative mind, inadequacy is a foregone conclusion. Yes, there will always be people who, in every way possible, are more advanced than us, physically, intellectually and spiritually, but that has nothing to do with them being “better” than us. It is only a result of these Souls, having more experience than us in particular areas of interest. These individuals are not born lucky, they have just put in more time at these endeavors in this life or in the past. It is inevitable that we will naturally be better at the skills which we are more experienced at. While it is hard to imagine that we could ever be the best or the brightest at anything, we are all divine creative beings, even if we don’t recognize our own unique gifts and talents as special or worthy of feeling appreciative.
To become confident beings and overcome feelings of inadequacy, we will need to stop comparing ourselves to others, and shift our perception to a higher vantage point.
Through the unobstructed lens of our true self, Soul, we will we begin to see past outer coverings and the limiting false illusions of the mind.
By recognizing and accepting the divine attributes we have inherited from our Creator, we will begin to appreciate ourselves for the powerful, unique and highly creative beings we truly are. In time, we will each come to the realization that our capacity to love, and to live gracefully are the real permanent treasures of Soul. These qualities are of infinitely greater value than all the money, physical prowess, and beauty in the world.
Marvel and be grateful for another’s accomplishments, athleticism, and masterful works.
Let them be an inspiration and a guide for us to light our passions and grow!
