Thandie Newton: Embracing otherness, embracing myself

“There is one thing that can give the self ultimate and infinite connection, and that thing is oneness, our essence”. She is one of the TED speakers that has inspired me the most. It might be because I feel identified with her story or because she speaks with her heart but, what she is saying about losing oneself when you are given a name is what tortures us in our lifetime. We always feel the need to fit some where, to come up in the world, to be recognized forgetting the fact that we ARE already. Real peace of mind and happiness comes from acceptance and love for oneself. Every human being is perfect, and there is no need to expect thumbs up from a judge who is nothing more than the same us.

The secret

You are the master of your emotions and destiny. You are the creator of your reality.

What the bleep do we know?

A world of possible realities. Depending on where you put your attention, that becomes your reality.

“We buy the idea that we have no control at all. We have been conditioned to believe that the external world is more real than the internal world…..What is happening within us will create what’s happening outside of us”.

“The real trick to life is not to be in the know, but be in the mystery”

Tony Robbins

Just because I admire him sooo much, let me share his story with you. He is one of the most charistmatic motivators I know. He is definitely making the most of his talent to make the difference in people’s lives.
