Hey all! I’m back and posting my now apparently bi-weekly article.
First of all, before I start the article, I just wanna reflect on my self-growth a bit. Because last week I was in this 5D4N camp, and there I observed a number of things about myself.
Because in the past, I was completely 100% the inhibited extrovert. I’m actually still kinda like that now in loving inner peace as well. But still, honestly I’m also able to flip the switch and go into outer expression mode when I want to. Ambivert, otrovert, whatever it’s called. Over the past few days, I looked at those 100% introverts and saw them talking in a subdued way and when I consider how I can light up too… ah, I’ve come so far. I actually radiate ^^ and talk to people now! π How much I’ve grown…
Wasn’t I like that as well in the past? I suppose. Hmm.
Just a quick note or two on how my reception and how I’m perceived by those coursemates. It demonstrates my growth nicely yep. So one. I’m like an epitome of positivity yep. I mean, that’s what they say. Another thing! I am of few words, but when I speak, the words are really meaningful and I offer really insightful perspectives, and so when I do speak up oh they so listen. Yep. Such were comments I got. I love me Ig hahah. Anyway ok. On to the article!
(By the way I was totally on fire when acting and presenting hahah!!)
So basically, today I would like to talk about your element. By element I am referring to what I previously mentioned. Everyone has their element or elements just like how a fish’s element is water or a bird’s element is the sky. (No offense to penguins and ostriches and whatever btw!!) And basically, that’s kind of like what created for. It’s where they are most truly themselves, most flexing their essence.
And it’s the same for us humans as well! We do have these elements too. But most importantly, I would like to distinguish these elements from basically what I might call sub-elements. So the distinction is this…
When we draw upon, immerse in or express through those elements, we naturally feel a sense of mastery in them. Ah, we feel so much ownership, mastery as we do so. However! When we’re in our sub-elements, while we may indeed have a certain level of ability to our name, we can’t help but feel that well, something is kinda lacking. A bit of imposter syndrome is probably kinda inevitable as we are more of going through the motions, rather than truly feeling it within our hearts, feeling a micro-connection.
When we’re in our element, we own it fully. When we’re in our sub-element, well, we can do it relatively decently if we’re blessed yes. However!! We don’t truly feel like our hearts are singing at all.
So on to some personal examples to better explain things.
For example, in my hobbyist amateur singer-songwriter journey, stuff I do as well is like recording and design (creating album covers) and even a little actual music composing of piano notes. However! These are not truly what makes my heart sing. They are more so a task done okay good enough thingy. No, really, what I feel most mastery over is writing the lyrics and fundamental melody, well, for me not through knowledge. but via a ‘feel’. Yep.
And also another thing that you can take a look at is how vastly fungible a thing is to you, or instead how wholly irreplaceable it may be. I would just like to point to my day yesterday to illustrate this.
So in the morning, I attended theatre class, the first of Sem 2. Well, I later realised that the thought of not going never even crossed my mind. It was just something that felt so comfortable to me, like my home ground even. I utterly belonged!! It was precisely my element to me as water is to a fish. But cycling? Nope. After the long camp, I was like no I have to give back to myself I really shouldn’t push myself too hard. Just one week off ty k!
To be honest, I might have mentioned this before, but cycling is far far more of a side quest to me than the acting of the theatre class is. It’s a lower priority 100% for sure. Even though technically, from a more achievement-oriented and practical perspective one might be no you should totally prioritise cycling more!!! If I hear that I’d feel like truly laughing in your face. Because it’s a sub-element, doesn’t make my heart sing so. And to elaborate, my heart’s desire in numerology is 3 so match.
Yeah so. Another one would be playing the piano. Yeah sure I can play songs. But to be really honest, I truly don’t feel at all that it is my real element where I belong. Instead, it’s just like playing a game. I have previously trained!! this skill to a certain level, so I do it every now and then just so that I retain the skill and don’t lose it. Yet, in a sense tbh I wholeheartedly know it’s something that’s more clinical, rational to me. Not something I totally lose myself in and can fully feel all the micro of.
So this, I believe, is a really good tip that you can take into account when trying to be the creator of your life. At the end of the day, the greatest compass is none other than your own heart and state of being. It’s completely not about the rational mind and logic at all; rather, we’ve all got to look for our own subjective truth that is right for us. And of course, one sad pitfall that many people face is they care too much about what others!!! think about them. No offense, but lame!!! …Oops. Shh! I know ok.
All of us have a process, and all of us have experiences, and all of us inevitably must start somewhere. Don’t be too hard on ya for where you are, and just know that growth is the name of the game. While enjoying yourself too of course! Anyway, 4 a first step I think I’ll say this! to ye.
When building your life, build the main elements as the top, foremost priority and the sub-elements as an afterthought! The main elements are what make you truly you. You should never!! abandon them! Well, even if! practicality calls and you have to get a job that is not exactly! your main element, if it aligns well enough just go for it for survival’s sake! In addition to that though, do make sure to fully indulge in your main element(s) and live.
For truly, that’s what’s truly happening when you immerse yourself wholeheartedly within your main element. You’re freaking alive yo.
That’s so truly where you belong. You eat there (me try slang ok π
Also, science nerd mode! Consider all of us as energy, or more like bundles!! of energy. Our main elements are our truest energy. And! Correspondingly, those elements r where we are most fully! owning ourselves and our energy and most blindingly magnetic! If we cling stubbornly on to our sub-element… alas! That’s only a sliver of the holistic!!! energy we have. Rather than a flame it be more like an ember… π
And I suppose that’s more or less all that I have for this article. To conclude I’d just like to say that as a multipotentialite I may have a staggering?? idk number of elements that I have access to. Thanks universebro! However yo.
Think about it this way. What makes me most truly me? Where I completely am most dazzling and fully owning me and one-of-a-kind? Where my heart sings, my vessel dances in the joy of excitement?
Tbh I feel like this article is kinda one of those places. So thx for reading. Bye y’all!
Best of luck everyone in finding out that perfect! balance that works for ya.
And life’s an everlasting project, so don’t push yourself too hard and forget to enjoy yourself along the way.
Meh be rooting for ya cause meh be fellow mehmber experincing this meh to woah journey with y’all. Kek.

Daimon out.
