The big challenge in becoming more aware is that there’s just so much noise.
- It’s like someone in your home that plays a really bad song too often.
- After a while it’s been on for so long that you become immune to it.
- like it’s just there and it’s still on
- It’s there in the back of your mind and you didn’t manage to turn it off.
The noise in life, whether it’s your parents expectations, society’s expectations, your partner’s expectations; all of those are like noise in the background.
- That noise drowns out your ability to understand the mind and the intelligence.
- that’s one of the biggest trip ups
The noise from outside makes us wanna fit into a container, and that stops us from differentiating between what my mind is saying, and what my intelligence is saying.
- What happens is that noise becomes your voice?
- That noise becomes what you think
Re-source: Reassociate
To associate again or anew; to connect (someone or something) with something else in one's mind
Switching your Association
- If you’re only hearing the same thing from that circle, the only way to turn it off without you having to do mass amounts of reflection is changing your circle.
- This means switching association to people that you hang out with.
- We ultimately find the things we want to hear
