| The mirror within 7 life changing questions |
Between the breaths , between the heartbeats , between the mad scroll of digital noise , there is a place where you true self exist-not the one that expectation , deadlines , or facebook profiles have made , but the actual your who has been present all along , whispering truths you have learned to silence
This is not a self help checklist , this is an excavation. A quiet but determined excavation of the person or human you’ve always been , the one buried beneath layers of expectations and imposed identities .
1-what would i do if failure was not an opinion ?
what if the world was a place where every venture was a success . where there was no rejection, no limited resources , no voice for fear to whisper . in this impossibility of a word , what would you hold with two hands? not only is the answer revealing , but it is also freeing . it strips away the cozy excuses we wrap around our dreams like security blankets . when failure is impossible ,all that remains is pure desire unadulterated by practicality or fear .
2-what are the parts of my life that feel like breathing , and which parts feel like holding my breath ?
pay attention to the subtle difference .some activities , relationships, and environments feel as natural as inhaling -effortless, life giving , essential .others require constant tension, a perpetual holding pattern where you’re always waiting for the moment you can finally exhale . your life should be measured not in years , but in breaths freely taken versus breaths held in anticipation of something better .
3-what story would my 80-years-old self tell about these moments ?
With time, that noise just sort of dissipates, and you end up with the things that really do matter. The things that appear overwhelming and urgent now typically dissipate with time, leaving us only with a small notation in the larger tale of our existence. If you look out at the future from the eyes of yourself in it, everything falls into place and reveals to you what really matters. And that change doesn't just alter how you think; it completely reshapes what you think about.
4. Where Am I Saying Yes When My Soul Is Screaming No?
Every "yes" that disowns your authentic self is a little death. Bit by bit, these betrayals weave a disguise , leaving you imprisoned in a skin that isn’t yours. The most courageous thing is not always grand gestures of change; it's generally the quiet, consistent practice of living your authentic "no" in the face of coercion to conform.
5. What Would I Create If No One Would Ever See It?
Strip the performance away. Remove the audience away. Remove the necessity of validation. Within this inner refuge, what would you create, write, paint, compose, or design for the love of creation itself? The answer will betray your hidden drives—those drives untaught by external acclamation or reward.
6. Which Relationships Drain My Colors, and Which Paint Me in Vibrant Hues?
There are people who are like emotional vampires, just draining the energy from you and leaving you completely drained. And then there are those soul artists that actually bring depth and richness to your life each time you spend time together. It's not to judge anybody; it's just to understand how the energy flows with all of your relationships and to make an intelligent decision to place that limited emotional energy where it expands rather than where it diminishes you.
7. What would I do differently if I knew that next year I would be perfectly healthy?
This isn’t grim—it's eye-opening. When we think we have endless tomorrows, we end up putting off actually living our lives. This question really highlights what’s important by giving us that final deadline. Out of nowhere, what matters becomes urgent, and a lot of what feels urgent turns out to be pretty unimportant.
The Transformation Protocol
These questions aren't random ones that you respond to and move on from. These are profound ones that increase with you as you progress and grow.
Choose one each morning. Reflect upon it. Allow it to permeate you like coffee brewing extracts wisdom from all of your experiences. Change of any real depth doesn't result from the response but from the question itself.
Each of these ques
tions is like a portal; passing through it has the potential to bring large changes to who you are. You do not discover yourself by happenstance; you create yourself with all of the many options these questions present.
Begin today.
Simply select one of these to do instead of looking to absorb it all at once. It'll stick with you, helping you learn things that really resonate when you're down. The life you learn from these questions may not become any less hard, but it'll most definitely be one of a kind for you.
Catch you later! Just keep this in mind: you're not something to fix, but more like a mystery to vibe with. Those questions? They don't really give you answers—they help you tap into the part of you that already gets it.
