Welcome to the Making of You. I'm Alexandria, founder of the Mastery Project, and your Transformation Hub. And this podcast is dedicated to the whys and ways to transform the mundane into the magical, doable, into enjoyable, successful, and purposeful, all while becoming the architect of your own life.
Okay, let's dive in. So today's episode is 5 Ways to Enrich the quality of your life.
Okay. Number one, a lot of people would say be successful, earn large amounts of money, be wealthy, and run off into the sunset. And that's a strong and high standard of living. Well, what I'd like to talk about today is all the immaterial and all of the foundational ways you can improve your creative ability in your life and it doesn't have to cost you the earth.
So my number one is if you want to be able to create quality in your life in all areas, so your mental health, your emotional enjoyment and sense of feeling and connectedness, your spiritual sense of purpose and meaning, and you also want to make money, you want to be prosperous, you want to have a physical high standard of living, then you do need to use 100% of your resources. So what do I mean by that? Well, it is a combination of the two parts that fundamentally go into creativity. One is doing, one is being.
And what can happen in our world somewhat is that we become a bit overtaken by doing and by feeling that if we do lots and lots and more and more, that that is of course going to improve the quality of our life. Now that's only 50%. Of course, I'm going to say to everyone, when we are utilizing, grounding our wishes into form, so we're bringing them and birthing them into our reality, of course we need to back them, we need to support them, take responsibility for them. And that's the domain for me of the mind. The mind that is going to administrate those beautiful dreams into a physical reality and an experience.
So, of course, you're going to need to make your list. You're going to need to plan your time, plan your resources, and all of that is going in to creating the quality of your life in the physical experience of it.
But creativity doesn't start out there, it starts within us. And so we also need to take consideration of the 50% that is the being energy in our lives. So what do I mean by that? Well, being for me is connecting into your heart center. And your heart center is the portal of infinite energy. It's your connection point to your infinite potentiality. So if you Imagine that there's a wonderful pipeline from the center of the universe. You're connected to everything and the immaterial energy is flowing through that pipeline. So when you get into your heart center, that energy is delivered to you in the sense that you're choosing to align with the unlimited flow. Now that is both prosperous, that is contributing to quality, that is going to bring in all of that beautiful energy because you've chosen it and because you are saying the alignment with it is really significant.
So a lot of people can go, well, how come everyone else gets, you know, what they want or gets a higher standard of living and I'm still slogging or I'm still struggling? Well, for a lot of people, they literally don't realize they need to consciously check in with themselves, get in their heart center, listen to their inner messaging, listen to what they truly want, and understand that journey of being aware and being aligned with their dreams and what they think will truly and what they feel will truly build a quality foundation and a quality creative relationship with their inner infinite potentiality.
So my number one is please remember to combine doing and being. I know a lot of people criticize being, or they criticize the state of contemplation or meditation, or they consider it as more a religious state than a spiritual state or a neutral state not aligned to anything.
But truly being is connecting in with that infinite flow of energy. And when you do it, you are aligning with all of the potentialities that you're magnetizing at that time.
And also the more we consciously message, the more that alignment is honed is we're mastering that connection. Then of course, the more effectively we're going to create through ease and we're going to create the quality that we're truly seeking.
Alrighty. So of course take action, apply ground, administrate, organize, all of those things are important in the quality of your life. But remember, you need fuel. And if you're going to fuel your dreams, you need to connect in and really understand what you truly want. And that takes moments of contemplation, moments of balance and peace and calm so you can truly hear what you want to create that quality and to continue to expand it in all areas. Your mental health, your emotional feelings, the sense of fulfillment, and the sense of meaning and purpose.
Okay, number two.
Well, for a lot of people, basically the quality of life is much more of a situation where they want to get it done, they want to get the job done, and they're not actually giving themselves necessarily the time or the fundamental platform to be able to start in that quality foundation in the first place.
Now, one of the biggest aspects in our world at this time is we do see a lot of misery, we see a lot of conflict, we see a lot of aspects in the media that aren't very encouraging. So we can have a tendency to get dragged out of ourselves into all of that drama, crisis and that mentality of if it bleeds, it leads.
So my number two is if you want to increase the quality of your life, please be really discerning about how you spend your energy, how you spend your time, and also look at including and choosing consciously that which is self loving, that which gives you balance, that which helps you keep in balance as you navigate through your life. And also that gives you a degree of enthusiasm, encouragement, upliftment, and that you feel, of course, that you are taking command of your creative process, that you are choosing consciously and that you're not a victim of your life.
A lot of people have trouble with the quality of their life because in the back of their mind or the nagging aspects of the limited voice, the ego, the inner critic that's saying, you're not good enough, you'll never be good enough, or you're not the right person, or you don't have the right inner assets or capabilities, that voice, that doubt is basically encouraging people to be a victim.
So how's that helping you? It isn't. All right, so if that voice is in the back of your day and is a bit of a soundtrack to your life, then please don't choose to energize it. Don't choose to argue with it and say, I am choosing my life. Even if you go, don't really have that many choices, then it is up to us always to fuel from that being placed, to fuel alternatives and to seek alternatives actively and of course to ask for help or to generally enrich our connectedness in order to move out of any state of victimhood, or feeling sorry for ourself, or feeling beaten down by the external authority we choose it's our life to create. So if you want quality, put yourself into that quality position with yourself and believe in your inner assets and in the qualities that are going to build what you truly want and that quality experience.
Okay, so number three.
Well, a lot of people I feel confused like and loving consciousness. Now when I talk about loving consciousness, I mean about what I've started with that being place of infinite potentiality. So when we're in the being space, we're connected to all that is we're connected to that endless flow of energy that fuels all of our creative connection, alignment and process.
So that loving consciousness can sometimes be a bit mistaken for just what we like. All right, so only doing, choosing or being in circumstances where we feel comfortable or we like it and we are pretty much tucked in there nice and comfortable in certain parameters.
Now I'd just like to say in my number three that just because we like something, unfortunately it isn't necessarily going to help us. It can be that we are seeking refuge in it, we're seeking security, we're hiding from change or we are literally saying hey, do I like it in the sense of I'm going to grow into loving it or do I like it because it's entertainment, distraction or it's just something to do because I'm actually a bit lazy and I don't really want to consciously choose.
So my number three is if you want a quality life, please spend those extra moments choosing all right, not just going oh anything will do or being a little bit wasteful of your own quality or your own potential quality because you're not actually actively choosing. Now I'm all for spontaneity, try, you know, different experiences, be open hearted and open minded but we can get stuck in that like it's a bit like a cube, we're stuck inside it and we start only magnetizing what we like, not the experiences that are going to help us grow.
So yes, like isn't necessarily of service for our transformational journey and it can become a bit of an obstacle to creating a quality life because we feel comfortable but we're actually a bit limited and we're not really in the space of supporting ourselves to develop further or to move ahead or to have the momentum, for example, to make the breakthroughs that we want to gain more and more experience of quality.
So please don't choose like. All right, choose loving consciousness. And even if certain things make you feel uncomfortable, consider why that is the case.
Just exercise a little bit of self inquiry. Is it because it's new and you've never done it before? Is it because it challenges what you existingly believe or what you did in the past?
Just be aware of asking yourself those questions. So being in that self inquiry because that enriches your ability to take responsibility, it enriches your alignment with your life and also it helps you be discerning with your energy. It helps you stay in balance, stay in self love. It helps you of course remain open hearted and open minded but to keep connected to the purpose for why you're doing things, why you are engaged in whatever activities you're choosing, and of course how that journey is going to unfold into both prosperous benefits and also purposeful sense of, of achievement, sense of meaning, and all of the immaterial aspects that build quality just as much as the material prosperity.
Alrighty, so number four, right, if you do want to build quality, then of course I've touched on it already.
Don't focus on what isn't going to bring long term transformation, long term alignment, and bring you into that space of moving through your life with relative ease.
So my number four is be willing to simplify, be willing to assess in your life that what is cluttering your life and be aware that clutter clearing on all levels, be it mental, emotional and physical, is very supportive for your general creative alignment. So if you imagine if you're carrying on the past in the sense of memories, emotional hurts or difficulties or struggles and periods in your life, if you're carrying that with you, of course that's going to be a degree of burden because you're going to have a sense of an attachment or a connection to the past. And of course that's going to be a bit like carrying a sack of unfinished business.
So for me, please do your best to dwell in the now. Do your best to make your peace with aspects that have been carrying on in the past that weren't necessarily the most fulfilling or have been difficult to come to terms with and in simplicity as well.
Focus your energy in the now. Combine as much as you can into that balance point because that's going to be a really efficient use of your energy and that's going to facilitate quality.
Okay, number five, I strongly believe that if you're going to have a quality life, look at all of your creative process as a co creation. All right, so not them and us, not oh, I've got to sort of be everyone and win. But looking at the quality being the nature of that co creation and of course being able to see how every piece in your creative puzzle fits in and of course to appreciate that from the inside out, but also from the collaborations and co creations that you make in your life. Because no man is an island, what goes around comes around. And it's really important for us to see that quality is of course that co creation with all the people who surround us with the thoughts and with the consciousness that we are supporting and developing.
Okay, it's been my great pleasure to talk about quality today and a quality of life and all of the immaterial assets and perspectives that can help you increase your quality of life.
