Flight of Confidence
Caterpillar -> Cocoon -> Butterfly
This might seem like a straightforward process, although it's quite a lot more than what it appears to be - just like how our lives are!
It seems like we are living quite a simple life, yet the struggles we undergo are so personal to us.
The Journey.....
The life cycle of this beautiful creature is similar to our very own lives.
You start as a nascent toddler trying to explore the fullest lengths and depths of life, and as you keep moving along;
You collect experiences - Digest them
Come across problems - Solve them
Make mistakes - Correct them
Just like a caterpillar chewing around the leaf of experiences.
Caterpillar - A stage of learning
- A hunger for Experiences
- A thirst for Knowledge
- An Eagerness to Explore
Encapsulation.......
As part and parcel of this process -> you grow, and when you grow -> your potential expands, and when your potential expands -> there is a vacuum created. When there is a vacuum -> there's space for self-doubt, fear, limiting beliefs, comparison, and negative thoughts.
These thoughts wrap you around yourself, make you strangle yourself with strands of fear, and questions, rethinking your possibilities.
All you feel like is to shut down from the world and put yourself in the hardest shell possible that nobody can break into.
"If it's not questioning your beliefs if it's not making you rethink yourself if it's not creating a vacuum, then it's not going to aid to your growth!"
Transition.......
It's dark, it's scary, it's silent yet it's relieving and calm, it's comforting of its own sort.
Finally when you're away from the noise of society, from the thoughts that make you question your possibilities, the imaginary situations, the fear of failure and you are left with yourself, you UNWIND.
You melt just like how a block of gold is melted before becoming an ornament.
You become vulnerable to yourself, you go through the process of reframing your identity, and you transition all that you thought you were just like what happens inside the cocoon.
"Great things take time!"
Cocoon - A period of transformation
- Self Doubt -> Self Belief
- Fear -> Courage
- Limiting beliefs -> Empowerment
- Comparison -> Authenticity
- Comfort Zone -> Growth
Breakthrough
There's something about this shell, it's quite daunting yet so calm, it puts you through the darkness, discomfort, and fear initially; but over time, you get comfortable in it.
So comfortable that you make this shell your home!
But then, you realize that when you get comfortable with the discomfort it's a natural sign of growth, and you slowly start developing these analogous organs - THE WINGS.
You accommodate it, adjust to it, accept it, and then you OWN IT!
After a point of time, you realize that the form you're evolving into can no longer stay within the shell. There are remnants of your previous self clinging to the new you that must be shed. The only way to truly emerge is to squeeze through a narrow nozzle, shedding the old to reveal the new.
Leap of Confidence
What happens when you decide to break free from your cocoon and soar into the vast, open world is a breathtaking transformation.
You emerge, not just as a different person, but as a stronger, more evolved version of yourself. This journey, symbolized by squeezing through the narrow nozzle, is your personal metamorphosis. Only you can take this courageous step, and in doing so, you embrace the power of change.
Remember, no one else can make this leap for you. It's your journey, your triumph, and your moment to claim the life you've always dreamed of. Embrace it with all your heart and let the world witness your incredible transformation.
Butterfly - The flight
Taking Flight!
- Right out of the cocoon
- Embracing Authenticity
- Dancing through the wind of life
"Life is magical after all, you just need CONFIDENCE to bring this magic to life!"
