[@michaellangan4450]

Accept this!

[@theplacebeyondthelies2429]

deceptive talk... what you call "self" is an image you have and therefore far away from God's image and God's truth. Since you talk of Self "improvement" on top of that, there is a self (which is an image) and then another self (just another image you chose to like out of images of lifestyles you have seen on the net probably) which you aren't yet, and thats why you tell yourself you need to improve to become that greener gras "self", trying to close the gap between what is and what is not (while it's just images/ideas in your head). It's the desire that lures people right into a cage. It's like your neighbor drives a big car, you wanna have it to. You don't need a car, but for some reason, you wanna have it too.. the moment you envy someone else life and follow this image in your head is the moment you start to lose touch with who you truly are: God's creation. Your desires make you desperate. You are basically a slave to your own desires, if you have not come behind your true self yet. Most people die of lack of knowledge. They do not know themselves. They do not know their own desires and how the world pulls on them from almost every corner. Why does the world do this? Well because someone who built the car will make huge money from your desire to have it. In order to have it, you take a credit. In order to take a credit, you need to have a stable job, slaving for another richman's rear. And the mental as well as physical prison is perfect.

I don't think people fully understand what Jung is trying to say. Dave Chappelle once said, "you have to become a lion in order to be the sheep you really are." This means, we put on a persona that is far from who we really are. Your shadow maybe that scared little boy, but when you embrace yourself you learn to protect yourself in a healthy manner and set proper boundaries instead of hiding who you are through pretending and putting on a show.

[@johnny4062]

100% agree. The example of being too afraid to actualize your potential has nothing to do with embracing your shadow. That being said, the video creator really got the point across that you need to step into the arena and try instead of standing on the sidelines. This is something that I really needed to hear.

In this case, transitioning from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset would be integrating one's shadow, and eventually that would bleed into other areas in their life. Its amazeballs! :)

If you let your fears of progressing in life and if you let doubts take over then you're doomed. You won't live the life you truly want to live, and you won't get to be what you were really destined to be. Everybody at some point feels scared to try something they really wanted, the difference is you can either find out if it will actually work or you can be thinking about "what if" all your life. I never thought I was smart enough to go to university and study Psychology which is my dream. When I finally got enrolled I was happy but didn't think I was gonna pass not even the first semester, and I did and 4 years later I graduated, and turns out I was not that dumb after all.

Acceptance of my high sensitivity toward the world has peaked during this season. Watching this video put the icing on the cake. Thank you for sharing this!

[@ArcadiaDesert]

This strikes a chord with me because I have always known of my shadow and didn't know that it had a name until recently when I started learning about it. I still struggle with socializing and being able to conversate freely but I believe that it is my shadow telling me that I am not able to do that because that's just who I am. I look back at my younger self and see a kid that was happier and able to do those things more easily, and "be myself" more and not someone that others wanted or expected me to be. What I'm really saying is that after thinking of that kid a lot I am realizing that the kid is still me, and for some reason in my mind I tend to see it as a different person. I am the same person, that in places throughout my upbringing certain things stuck in my mind, and became part of that shadow which makes me who i am today and causes me to hide my shadow or avoid it. Because there are parts I don't like or am afraid of like this video said.

[@DRJVNAVY]

Can you elaborate. I connect with this same thing you wrote, but haven’t quite understood it as much as you wrote. Basically, what have you realized now from your shadow. Are you someone who can’t converse or is it … I’m struggling with this

[@ArcadiaDesert]

@@DRJVNAVY well I've learned a lot about myself in the past year to start off. I was 19 last year I that's when I discovered that I have ASD (autism spectrum disorder) it is also called aspergers. But through elementary school and grade school I had no problem conversating and just being around people because it was easier at that age and it feels like there is no fear of rejection as a kid and nothing to lose from doing something embarrassing or different because, well I don't know other than at that age it just seemed easier and you don't have that feeling of needing people to understand or accept you. It seemed like you could find friends no matter what. But middle school, like 6th-8th grade, is where I struggled the most with aspergers, yet I didn't know that was part of my struggle at the time. I think this is where a lot of the negative things I incorporated into my shadow developed. At that point in my life I often remember thinking that there was something wrong with me all the time, and trying to point to a certain thing like me being overweight, or having bad acne on my nose. I remember little moments through that time that made me act different in the future. For example, there were things I would do that were strange to the classmates, like sometimes if I came in the class to walk to my desk I would walk with my arms out like a plane, and the teacher made fun of me for it one day and got everybody laughing at me. There are lots of moments like this that really stuck with me and still to this day have me convinced that I am weird. And of course I had a struggle trying to talk to girls too, it was no different, I would struggle with eye contact and sometimes still do. Conversations felt like a script to me and when the script ran out I was going onto my own which made me kind of funny in a way, but it seemed to be a way of hiding that I am really panicking and don't know what to say. This meant I could make people laugh but I didn't ever have a girlfriend or anything. When I think back on it with a different perspective and just more lived experience I am seeing where my shadow and how I interpreted it really had a lot to do with this. Because of these events and my emotions from them that stuck in my subconscious, I formed a way of seeing myself, like that voice in our heads we always call "ourselves" it is what controls everything you do, but it isn't random. It is built on those embarrassing, confusing and painfal moments of social rejection or failure. As I lived with this shadow of myself and how I saw myself, it affected all of my actions. So going through middle school with this shadow of myself that was creepy to girls and weird to be around or someone nobody liked caused me to act in THAT way. I didn't ever think of it that way at the time. I had many meltdowns about why I was so weird or unattractive but looking back it all seemed to be my shadow in control and me not looking at it and asking myself why I believed those things about myself. To me they just were true and I believed that's how I was seen by others so it's how I acted subconsciously. I don't seem to be great at conversating now but as I've gotten older I've learned that you have to just talk to people like they are a perfect stranger and not someone I should try to impress or have to be liked by. I try not to assume they will treat me a certain way or that they are a certain type of person. Another thing that helped me is to not be afraid to just say hi, and if you are scared then force yourself to like you're not in control and see where it goes, because in our heads we fear that it's bad character or weird, (I did anyways) but really, it's what life is all about. We are all struggling and no matter what someone shows, we don't ever have it truly figured out, we are all constantly trying to do that. I have learned from addressing my shadow more that the feeling of when I was kid and I had nothing to lose from embarrassing myself and just being free in conversation is still a way I can feel, it just takes those moments of trying it and literally saying something like hello to a stranger or breaking that social "script" and really asking how someones life is going and even share something embarrassing thats happened to you. The more you do this the more you'll begin seeing that it's not bad, kind of like the opposite of what built my shadow that way. You have to not care so much about the moments of conversation, because it doesn't carry as much weight or importance as we think in our heads, and the other person feels a lot of the same things. This is a really long reply. I hope this has helped you in any way in your life

[@DRJVNAVY]

@@ArcadiaDesert Oh wow you’re only 20! Your emotional intelligence is impressive. I don’t think I knew half of this then. Did you ever get a girlfriend? You mentioned that you were unattractive and awkward… do you view yourself differently? I appreciate your thoughtful response.

[@ArcadiaDesert]

@@DRJVNAVY Yes, I had a girlfriend in high school but it was for a short time and I found that I really was wanting a relationship for the wrong reasons and that it wasn't meaningful to me or the other person. It was kind of on and off through freshman and sophomore year but other than that no. Through high-school I did view myself in a better light and it did seem to work in my favor for the appropriate amount that I changed or tried to improve on. I still see myself as different but not in a way that I think I'm better than anyone, but in a way that gives me peace of mind to know that it's okay to be me and that at a fundamental level and because of my condition there are things about the way I feel or think in social settings that I can't change. It's not to say I am giving up on trying to confront the shadow and socialize more freely, but that no matter the end result, it will be unique to me, and that nobody is the same, and it's okay to be me. Which is easier than said than done. It's something I've really been trying to work on recently now that I've realized it more. Thank you for your compliment. I don't claim to know anything better than any other person, this is just my experience the best I could articulate it into words. I'm really trying to figure more out and just try the things that scare me the most in a social setting and remind myself that the next day isn't guaranteed.

I did this for two months. People want to be around you when you are your true self because you appear like a main character. Everyone that isn't themselves all look like the next person who isn themselves so they all appear the same outwardly but inwardly they know they are their own being and beg to escape societal pressure so they can be just that. So when YOU come along being yourself you appear like a free spirited butterfly and a breath of fresh air to everyone who is scared to be themselves so people will gravitate toward you to the point its overwhelming a times because they'll either wan to be in that energy that you radiate because it feels so free or they'll hope it rubs off on them by spending g time with you. This is how you'll know you're being yourself. You won't appear like everyone around you.

Every day I’m struggling I’m on the right direction and some weeks ago I realized that what I want is going to be hard and I’m accepting that. I’m taking small steps. But sometimes weeks go by and I’m just stuck again in my comfortable fantasy potential cage. It doesn’t help that I have so many fantasies too. It wasn’t enough to become an illustrator I still want to be an actor a dancer and a film maker not to forget a musician too and although I know it’s not realistic these fantasies won’t disappear. I make life so hard for myself. Being confronted everyday with the reality of being far off all the professions above at the moment. It’s the greatest cause of my depressive moods and depressive phases. I find this just very hard. Sometimes I would love to be able to just accept and be happy that I’m not gonna be all this fantasies but this urge isn’t going anywhere so that’s why I work through I simply have to.

This reminds me of when I got into combat sports again as an adult. I can easily win fights with random people that would get pissed and swing on me. I used to have this view that I was bulletproof, that I was better even than champion fighters because of my scrappy nature. Then I actually got into combat sports again, my first practice I got my ass absolutely handed to me. But I had a smile on my face during every loss. Because it made me realize how deep combat sports were, it made me happy that I still had something to learn. The issue in my case is that there are 3 tiers of fighter. The average person, someone that's willing to fight, and a trained fighter. Just having that will to fight is enough to scare off the average person that tries to throw down. But a trained fighter is a different breed. After a year being an amateur sumo wrestler I can headbutt fellow competitors so hard I give them a concussion, I don't even feel strikes to the face or chest anymore, and hell last practice I won a match where my throat was being lunged at by just pushing into it and choking myself in the process. I nearly fractured my own windpipe because of how hard I charged into that choke. And I'm just an amateur. I'm nothing compared to the pros. And I love that. I love to be apart of something so deep that even giving my all I still have a long long long way to go before I could even last 10 seconds against a pro. Recently did something similar with my drawing. I started drawing more and more. There was initial sadness when I realized I'm really not as good as people used to say I was, but I started feeling quite happy actually making my small improvements.
