Do you have an answer for everything?
Instead of listening to most of what was said to me so far, I prepared to respond.
I can guess that you have done this many times before.
Previously learned behavioral patterns may make us feel that our opinions are not respected.
The underlying reason behind this was to defend my truth or to come out on top by showing what I knew.
If you want to defend your truth, you can look at the other person as an opponent and try to jump over him.
Trying to come out on top is because you see your own opinion as inferior. After all, something else is being said at that moment.
When our container is full, that is, while we are trying to answer, we close our minds to listening at that moment and try to produce arguments.
A mind that produces arguments cannot listen. While we want our own opinion to be taken into consideration, we disregard the other person.
If we remove the obstacles to listening, we will have a huge leap forward on this path.
Those who can listen can receive the help of life and easily let go of things they need.
This is exactly where we want to reach!
Can We Really Listen?
There was information I learned through workshops such as masculine and feminine, theological scholarship, and the mathematics of life.
With such an infrastructure, I was arrogant in some places in the yoga instructorship I am currently attending.
Thus, I turned off the listening and said that my bowl was full and I could not fill it.
Learning new information was starting to become a burden for me.
That’s why I couldn’t fully benefit from different people’s experiences.
Thinking that I already know is one of man’s greatest arrogance and self-harm.
While I am currently working as a yoga instructor, I started sharing this writing blog and the information I gained on Instagram.
This is how I make progress in listening and receiving.
Even though it seems like I’m giving something, I’m making room to receive, I’m lightening up and I’m sharing.
I move these issues from the dimension of awareness to comprehension and internalization.
From another perspective, trying to take on too many things at the same time ends up being the same thing. This time, while we try to take in too much, we do not internalize it and at the end of the day, we can get tired of it all.
Our point here is to get rid of the burden of information by applying and transferring it.
We can open up a field of application for ourselves to better understand what we have learned.
While we provide information to those who request it as much as they request, we also reinforce what we have learned.
Details Affect the Whole
Every detail we notice in our relationships and behavior shows us how it is in the whole through projection.
One of the easy aspects of changing the whole is to affect the whole by changing the details.
How we feel and act while making the small details and pieces we have is reflected in the whole in the same way.
Staying captive to the knowledge we have previously learned closes the doors of the new to us. What needs to be prioritized here is what and how much we should leave behind. What can we leave here to make room so we can buy a new one?
Every time we embrace different perceptions, we see a step in which we can improve ourselves.
Accepting evaluations benefits us first and foremost.
A New Perspective
Here, in our capacity to receive, to let go of the old and take in the new;
- Catching ourselves in moments where we see and think that this is the same thing we learned.
- Here, we want to catch new details on this subject that we heard from the same or different people.
- Applying these details, digesting them, and transferring them to those who request them
To expand our receiving capacity here;
- We can add excitement to our approach to learning.
- We can do research and work in areas that fuel excitement within us.
- Like a child, we can question the origins of the information we acquire by asking “Why?”
- We can benefit the whole by transforming that detail by using the power of details.
