A Me-ist to a We-ist: How We Can Change the World One Person at a Time 

Welcome to 2024 and I hope that everyone of my readers and subscribers have a healthy and prosperous 2024. This year, I’m going to do things differently than the past. If you are aware of this fact, I’ve authored over 20 books that are on Amazon and Amazon Kindle. My focus is self-help, motivational books that aspire readers to a higher level of consciousness, and hence, healthier, happier and more spiritual lives.

This month, I’ll feature “”A Me-ist to a We-ist: How We Can Change the World One Person at a Time “(2019). I’m especially proud of my work since the advice given is not just my opinion but is backed up by over 100 references from experts, scientists, and futurists.

How can my words help you in your life’s journey?

One reader included an unsolicited review about how the words affected his personal life: “A We-ist is concerned about things like peace, forgiveness, love, compassion, gratitude, humility, and spirituality. As we work on being a better person, this will naturally have an affect on the people around us. That’s how it compounds one person at a time. I have always been into continued learning and personal development. There are parts of the book that I particularly found to be motivating and inspirational.” 

Let’s get started. If you want to purchase a paper or digital copy of We-ist, travel over to Amazon and place your order.

Chapter One

Don’t change the world, change your world

I’m not asking, pleading or demanding that you change all of humanity…that is too much responsibility for any man or woman to carry upon their shoulders. The weight would be thoroughly crushing, depressing, and debilitating. All I’m asking you to do is change the world within you, and as you change the world within you, you change the world around you, and as you change the world around you, you change the world around another person and then around another and then another. Your change cannot be contained. It doesn’t stop…it’s the power of momentum. It’s like a single snowflake that starts at the top of the mountain and as it careens down precipitous slopes, it adheres to other snowflakes and by the time they reach the bottom of the mountain, the unsuspecting valley is changed beyond description. That’s from a single snowflake; imagine what a single person could do if they are focused and commit to consistent action to change the world within them?

In today’s world, we all too often look around us to see loneliness, feel emptiness, speak of insecurity and insignificance. We believe we are onlookers and not participants of the world; we have become fragments of our Self, separated from joy, happiness, and purpose. It’s little wonder then that we turn to material goods where we horde things, and collect things to find what we feel is missing in our life. As you scramble for what you think you need and want to be whole in this life, you lose empathy and compassion for others. We can then justify exploitation and suppression in order to get what we want…our piece of the pie. As it occurs individually, it then spreads out as a pandemic illness throughout our world.    

However, life is like a mirror; if you focus upon indifference, you live indifference; if you focus upon oppression, you live oppression; and if you focus upon conflict, you live conflict. In your mind and then in your neighbourhood you have indifference and even malevolence. We need to lose indifference and oppression. As children and teens, we needed to belong, to be reassured, and to be a member of a group that we identified with. As you aged, you lost that need and this created separation without because you created separation within. You don’t need a life-threatening illness or some other disaster to show you that changes have to be made and made in a hurry. Assume a new role in your life…now. It’s time to become a participant again, move past being an onlooker to achieve what you deserve in this life. A life that should be one filled with purpose and meaning and not indifference and oppression.     

How does it start? It starts with the four-letter word we all dream about; the one word that ignites our soul and causes us to sing about it, cry over it, and chase after it for our entire seventy, eighty, or ninety years that we spend upon this planet, it is…LOVE. New babies need love; adolescents need love; geriatrics need love. The famous Armenian spiritual teacher and writer G. I. Gurdjieff (1991) expressed his views to us that “love is the foundation of everything.” Scovel-Shinn (1989), expressed her view by stating that “Loving your neighbor means not to limit your neighbor in word, thought or deed” and “Regard your neighbor as yourself.” In Tao Te Chung (13), we read “Love the world as your own self, then you can truly care for all things.” This is the ‘how’ to change your world and the world of those around you.

However, be mindful of love and its true meaning; it is not something you do, it is not something you say…it is something you are. It is something you are when the world conspires against you; it is something you are when the universe aligns with you; and it is something you are when you shouldn’t be. Love must be as natural as breathing and as the act of breathing is an unconscious reaction that sustains our life, love must be natural and must permeate every one of your trillion plus cells. If a scientist looked under a microscope at your cells to find love, it wouldn’t be possible to discern between the physical and spiritual aspects that make-up your cells. Your cells are love and your love is your cells. There is no separation of the two, they are one, and as one they guide you through life and determine how you act and react to your Self, to other members of our species, and to nature.

The major religions and philosophies of the ancient and modern world espouse the same universal wisdom; it is certainly not luck, fate, or chance that the principle tenet of each institution is clearly based upon, it is love…love for your Creator, love for your Self, love for your brothers and sisters, and nature. In our today’s world, many have little faith in what the religious teachings and their words have to offer us; hence, we assume the words are false; the words are an invention; the words are concocted by man to suppress man. It’s a shame that this feeling runs throughout our modern psyche; for a moment, put aside your disbelief and suspicion about the great ancient books and look at what they are saying to us. The words and stories contain wise words that help us live today as they helped those that lived yesterday. If you are a non-believer, cast religion aside for just a moment and see the message instead…you’ll be surprised how their message can change your life.  

There you have it? Can you see the value for our species’ future by casting aside the Me-ist attitude and adopting a We-ist way of life? I do and my wish is that these few paragraphs help you in your personal journey to good health, financial wealth, and spiritual self.

I’d like to hear your response to the ideas found in “A Me-ist to a We-ist: How We Can Change the World One Person at a Time.”

“Action, no matter the intensity or the frequency, will never overcome Vibrational Discord.”

Massive action is part of the equation for success

We are often told to take ‘massive action’ when things are not progressing as we want them to when it comes to achieving our goals. The thought is that action, no matter the level of desire or sense of expectancy, will help propel you closer to your intended goal. Still, nothing can be further from the truth when it comes to achieving your goals.

Your vibrational state is a mirror of your results 

While you make full or half-hearted efforts to progress to your goals, the major problem,  your vibrational state, is not changed. Since your vibrational state remains the same, so your situation remains the same. Action is not the critical ingredient in your journey to achieve your goals, without a doubt, your vibrational state is the most important with your actions mirroring the vibrational state that you inhabit and not your vibrational state mirroring your actions.

You attract what you emit to the universe

The Natural Laws clearly indicate that you can only attract that which you send out and you send out what vibrations you are experiencing at each and every moment that you share this physical environment called Earth. There is no break, no holiday, no down time from inhabiting a vibrational state and even when you are sleeping, you are transmitting your vibrational state of good feelings, such as compassion and patience, or bad, such as jealousy and envy, out to the universe. And, you can only attract back that which you emit.

Change your state to change your results 

So, if you are having a difficult time to achieve what you want from life, it seems that taking action to achieve that goal without being in the proper vibrational state is like shooting your Self in the foot since your expectations, thoughts, and words are what manifest your wants and not your actions which are backed by insecurity, envy, doubt, and disbelief.

Incongruent thoughts and words manifest your actions

Vibrational Discord occurs when your thoughts and words are incongruent with your actions. Hence, you may act as if you truly want to achieve your goal, writing to do lists, looking at pictures of your goals, and even imagining the benefits that you and your family will enjoy when you have achieved your goal.   However, deep inside of you are thinking thoughts of disbelief, negative expectancy and a host of other negatives.

Your inner world of Vibrational Discord creates barriers to achieve your results

So, while you display a confident exterior to the world, your negative interior is forming a wall of resistance which is so formidable that no amount of action or strength of action can possible go around, go under, or go through the barrier that has been put before you by you and your own incongruent thoughts and feelings. Vibrational imbalance is not circumvented by action;  it is corrected by positive thoughts and words, there is no other possible means to get back on track and shed vibrational imbalance than gain vibrational accord.

Vibrational Accord creates the level of success you envision  

You need to change the inside, which ultimately changes the vibrational state you inhabit, before you can achieve that which you hold dear to your heart. Action, no matter the frequency or strength, in the presence of Vibrational Discord will never manifest that which you set your sights upon. Action, no matter the frequency or strength, in the presence of Vibrational Accord manifests that which you set your sights upon. Focus upon your vibrational balance to achieve your goals and not focus upon your action to achieve your goals.
