Our journey to our higher selves can at times impact the friendships in our lives. To manage relationships during our journey to our higher selves, we need to constantly evaluate friendships to make sure our interactions lead to positive outcomes.
Vibration energies change, our vision and spirit changes, hopefully for the better. As we evolve to our higher selves, the friendships we have may alter over time. Are we willing to grow when that evolution occurs? Sometimes our perspective of the world changes so does the way we relate to people.
Key Elements
- Don’t Voice Negativity
- Stay Focused on the Journey, Not the Destination
- Make Sure the Relationship is Equally Beneficial
Monitor Your Thoughts
When we voice negative thoughts there is a chemical reaction in our brains that gives power to those thoughts. These leads to action and that negativity becomes reality. Prevent bad thoughts from becoming reality by refusing the urge to speak them.
Trevor Moawad is a life coach that shared a story about a professional baseball player. The player voiced several times his fear of not making a play that would cost his team the World Series. As a result, during a critical play of a world series game, he made the exact error he was afraid of making. He voiced his fear so often that it became a reality.
Stay Focused on the Journey, Not the Destination
We must make sure that our friendship is focused on enjoying the moments that matter. Throughout our lives, friends will come and go for different reasons and seasons. If we spend too much time dwelling on the future or the past, we forget to enjoy the life we are living now. Stop completing things and start living them.
“Like the ebb and flow of the ocean, friends will come and go throughout your life. Some will be gentle, flowing, others will be powerfully transformative, and still, some any become destructive, overwhelming. It is all water coming from the same source, just bringing different types of energy to your own life.”
Make Sure the Relationship is Equally Beneficial
As we evolve on our journey to connect with our higher selves, the caliber of our friends may change drastically. As you come to know yourself and set goals to become more evolved, your friends will have varying reactions. Knowing which of your friends support your growth will be very important.
Surround yourself with a group of people that are going to encourage you to change instead of pressure to remain in your current state. They say that you are an amalgamation of your closest relationships. As you continue on your path to enlightenment, make sure your circle of friends resembles the person you want to become.
