When was the last time you're in silence, stillness and solitude?
Elevation in this context is your personal growth.
Isolation is silence, stillness and solitude.
Why Isolation is vital for your Elevation?
In our busy lives, it's very easy for us to be busy around the wrong things. You are busy chatting with your co-workers at the water cooler, you are busy replying and clearing your emails, you are busy meeting people all day long, you are busy scrolling through your Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, you are busy watching TV, you are busy being busy.
Sometimes it takes just 15 minutes a day of silence, stillness and solitude for you to realize that you've been busy around the wrong things. For you to realize you can be better and improve yourself in various areas in your life.
Distraction keeps you away from yourself.
Know that you need isolation to realize what's happening in your life, what are you getting out of your life and how can you elevate higher than yesterday.
How to isolate in order to elevate?
Method 1: Private Reflection
Invest 2% of your time (30 minutes out of 1440 mins) to isolate yourself and reflect on your daily life. Asking yourselves questions is one of the simplest and most powerful tool to grow,
10 questions to get you started,
- am I using my time wisely?
- am I taking anything for granted?
- am I seeing things positively?
- am I living try to myself?
- am I waking up every morning, ready to take on the day?
- am I thinking negative thoughts before I sleep?
- am I putting enough effort into my relationships?
- am I taking care of myself physically?
- am I letting matters that are out of my control stress me out?
- am I achieving the goals I've set for myself?
After answering Yes or No, think of your Why's like why is it a yes, why is it a no. Ask why 2-3 times more. Go deeper and deeper to the inner you. You may find something new about yourself.
Method 2: Cave in
I learned this method from 's coaching session.
Invest 4% of your time to cave in or collapse into your negative emotions.
Find a safe space where you can sit comfortably. Make sure there's no one around you within 1 arms length. Then start, caving in.
Recall all of the events that made you feel negatively such as frustration, anger, sadness, anxiousness, nervousness, and hate. Let those emotions to flow, let them pass. Do not hold onto them. Say to them "Thank you" and let them go.
Continue recalling until 1 hour is up. Remember to set a timer, so that you'll get out of your state.
This method allows you to feel down as you wish. Once you get out of your cave, you do not let those negative emotions to drag you down and you continue taking on the day.
Personally, I do method 1, private reflection by asking myself powerful questions. Thanks to it, I achieved realization in a lot of things and I feel I am better than yesterday me. There're a lot of things that I look forward to, to learn.
