Human life undergoes 7 profound stages:
- The Original
You are born exactly as you are: pure and authentic. - The Trimming
Parents, siblings, and society impose boundaries, cutting back on your freedom so that you fit into the system. - The Disruption
You adapt to these limitations and settle for the manipulated version of yourself you have become. - The Competition
Operating within this new role, you begin to compete with others who are playing the same game. - The Eruption
Things start to go wrong. Having pushed the roleplay too far, you begin to suffer—experiencing illness, aggression, or desperation. There is only one way out: stop living this way. - The Choosing
It becomes clear that pivotal choices must be made. When you choose from the heart, this transformation elevates you to the final stage. - The Cultivation
You live in full alignment with your true self. This is the time to listen to your inner growth and continuously cultivate who you really are.
Important Insights:
- Overlapping Stages: Disruption and competition can occur simultaneously and may last an entire lifetime.
- The Comfort of Security: Not everyone reaches the stage of eruption. Some only experience a brief taste of it, ultimately choosing security and remaining in the life they already know.
- The Turning Point: As soon as the eruption begins, choices naturally start to present themselves.
- The Ultimate Choice: The most critical decision at this juncture is choosing between remaining a victim within the system, or becoming a fighter who battles for the freedom that was taken away.
It is clear that not everyone goes through all seven stages. In fact, only a few will. If you can read, resonate with, and understand these stages, you are already on your path to self-development and have no intention of quitting.
