IN A WORLD OF SO MANY VOICES

in OCD2 years ago

Everywhere we find ourselves there are many different voices.
Some are for encouragement,
Some are for discouragement,
Some are for uplifting,
Some are for suicide,
Some are meant to either build us or break us. It all depends on the kind of voices we listen to and allow to program and control our lives.

We all have free will, we have the right to choose how our life should go, and in what direction we want it to go.

And if you just sit back and relax without doing anything, your life will still go in a certain direction.

Just like a garden or land that is just left alone without cultivating anything in it, something must grow in it, and that thing is called "Weed" - which is unwanted grass. The weed grows there because the land or garden was left alone. So you see, our life can be that way if nothing is done with, on and about it.

WHAT THEN IS OUR ROLE?

Our role is to DO something about our life, do something with our lives and do something about it. Folding hands and doing nothing will only bring forth undesired results and unwanted life.

As I stated earlier, there are voices of life and voices of the dead.

Our role is to choose which voice we listen to.
We have to consciously FILTER the voices within us.
These voices can come through our communication with our friends, our engagement on social media, in the marketplace, what we read on the Internet, what we watch on videos etc.

Consuming everything you hear or listen to can consume you as an individual.

ACTIVATE THE GUIDE WITHIN

The Internet is one big open source where several things can pop into our minds. Guiding our minds can be of great help to help us navigate life in the right course or direction.

Nobody is going to help you guide your mind, it is something you have to do by yourself and for yourself.

Occasionally trained yourself to listen to the right source of information, read the right materials, watch the right videos, and block and mute whatever is not consistent with your spirit.

In the process of maturing in the way you allow things into your mind as regards what you listen to or hear, it may not happen instantly. But with time, you will be able to put a stop to what kind of voices you listen to and what kind of information you consume.

Allowing the life-giving voice, uplifting, voices of encouragement, those that are meant to build you take over you can be of great benefit to you in this world of so many voices. Occasionally practice this and do it consciously. See you all at the next level of life!

Hi @royalpeek! Let me drop you a few suggestions to help you navigate better on our platform.

We have a Self Improvement community where this topic would fit better. OCD is for topics that don't fit in any other community and should be used when you don't find a niche community for your post.

Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work and why you should use them -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide.

Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.
