Using Your Reasoning Faculty to Succeed
What is the reason you want to complete a book?
Why do you choose to sit down and read any book?
What about your work, why do you go to work everyday?
Knowing the reason that you do the things you do is vitally
important to your personal development, self-growth, and self-awareness.
Your reason for doing anything is the catalyst for the action to do it.
When you understand your reasoning faculty, you understand your motivation
for doing anything at all. Most people, however, live their entire life
outside of reason. They don’t know why they do the things they do, they
just do them! If you asked them to change, they might ask you “Why?”
Without a clear and defined “why”, there is no reason to change. Your
reason for doing something is why you do it. Our paradigms have a
strong hold on our life, they are deeply rooted in our subconscious and
they control every aspect of our life from the quality of our relationships to
the amount of money in our bank accounts. If you want to change those
paradigms you are going to have to have a reason to use your reasoning
faculty to initiate the change. Your reason for wanting something activates
emotions and activates hidden reservoirs of power that lie dormant within
your subconscious. Your ‘why’ is the torque that turns the key of reason.
Victoria Lazarova, says when you know your ‘Why’ or your “Y” you are saying
“Yes” to yourself. You free yourself to be, do, or have anything that you
can possibly imagine.
So next time you are stuck, ask yourself if you have a good enough reason to
get unstuck. If you do, then moving forward becomes a natural act of growth.
What is your why?
