We are not our thoughts and feelings, we are an awareness that has thoughts and feelings. Taking action builds character. Taking action despite our insecurities and doubts is empowering. It reveals the best part of each of us that are longing to show up and show out. That being said, change is hard. To take action can feel damn near impossible facing that kind of big-picture enormity. Instead, focus on one thing at a time.
Every step in the process is as important as the destination because it is by going through the process that character is built, there are no shortcuts. Move forward with full faith in yourself and trust the process. Keep taking that next best step and the next one after that. We all are. These words are for us all.
However, most of them are mechanical and repetitive. Sometimes we get carried away by obsessive and debilitating trains of thought, to the point where we neglect our priorities and stop listening to ourselves. Believe it or not, the mind is very used to internal conflict.
There are always issues to resolve, anxieties to calm, empty spaces to fill, and fires to put out. The mental noise produced by all of these issues can become relentless and unforgiving. This is when stress begins to leave its mark on the brain, when the eyes simply lose focus.
This change in structure directly affects the prefrontal cortex, which is associated with superior brain functions like awareness, concentration, and decision-making.
This means that when we go through difficult times dominated by worry, stress, and irritating mental noise, it becomes really difficult to connect with ourselves.

When some time is two words, it refers to a span of time. For some time , humans have known that the world is round.
