Thoughts for Meditation

What is it like to be actualized? Functioning at a higher level—you’ see opportunity everywhere—you’ll see possibilities for growth in everything. You’ll see the beauty in little things. Every day presents new adventures. You’ll feel at one with all creation. You’ll be satisfied with every aspect of life. You’ll feel love without expectation. You’ll accept others for who they are and not put them down for their beliefs. Your feeling of oneness will leave you feeling at peace with the universe. You’ll want to help others feel as you do. You’ll recognize everyone as individuals—unique unto them-selves . When you are actualized you don’t experience anxiety, stress or depression. You are unafraid of life. You don’t feel unworthy of the good things life has to offer. You won’t allow the opinions of others to affect your way of doing things. You’ll create your own destiny and do not accept judgements. You’ll listen to constructive criticism. But you will not let invalid criticism sway you from attaining your goals. You’ll readily adapt to circumstances –when it’s called for. You’ll speak your mind freely –but are always concerned about the feelings of others. You’ll stairstep your goals so as not to overextend yourself. You’ll never lord who you are, what you’ve accomplished or what you have over others. Self-actualized people get their inspiration both from within and the world around them. At the end of the day they look back at their activities and decide what they did right and what they can do better.
