“The barrier during self-improvement is not so much that we hate learning, rather we hate being taught. To learn entails that the knowledge was achieved on one's own accord-it feels great-but to be taught often leaves a feeling of inferiority. Thus it takes a bit of determination and a lot of humility in order for one to fully develop.” FeelsSelfFeelingsHateOrderBitsLearningHumilityTaughtSelf ImprovementDeterminationImprovementBarriersAccordInferiority Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
“Unfortunately, most people do not stop to feel their tiredness. Faced with the pressures of life, they believe that it is a matter of survival to go on as they have been. Feeling tired raises a deep fear that they may not be able to continue the struggle. Many find it difficult to say, ‘I can’t.’ As children, they were taught that where there’s a will, there’s a way. To say, ‘I can’t,’ is to admit failure, which is seen as evidence that they are unworthy of love.” PeopleWayFeelsBelieveMayChildrenHas BeensI CanMatterFeelingsAbleDifficultStruggleTaughtGoes OnSurvivalEvidencePressureRaisesTiredUnworthyTiredness Author:Alexander Lowen
“Once you have a handle on loving yourself, you can practice sharing that love with others. You’ve probably been taught to reserve the language of love for when you’re feeling overwhelmingly tender and passionate, and only for those who have made huge commitments to you. We recommend instead learning to recognize and acknowledge all the sweet feelings that make life worthwhile even when they don’t knock you over—and, moreover, learning to communicate those feelings to the people who inspire them.” PeopleMadeFeelingsLanguagePracticeInspireTaughtSweetHugeCommitmentPassionateCommunicateHandleAcknowledgeWorthwhileReservesLoving YouLoving YourselfLanguage Of Love Author:Dossie Easton
