      Liberation Is Imperative - Kevin Knight

      Author

      INTRODUCTION

      Leaving comfort and security then stepping out into the unknown - that is liberation.

      We all have our comfort zone. The place where you feel that life cannot infringe upon your flow. A structured lifestyle where you can almost predict what will happen from one day to the next. A source of stability that provides a deep sense of security, and there is nothing wrong with that. There is nothing wrong with being satisfied with your job or being comfortable with your personal possessions or achievements.

      It becomes a problem when you become complacent about your divine purpose within this world and your comfortable living invades your mental where about. Causing you to have a delusional and unknowing mindset to what you are destined to be. You should never reach a place in life where you are totally satisfied with the progress within yourself.

      There is an eagle in me that wants to soar, and there is a hippopotamus in me that wants to wallow in the mud.

      - Carl Sandburg

      We live in a world where there is no true certainty, as anything we hold dear can be taken away from us.

      For most people, you are living a life based on the influence of others who may or may not have your best interests at hand. So you went out and created a life based on mental conditioning that made you believe that was what you were supposed to become.

      In this book, I discuss how you can rise above the mediocrity within your life and start living in alignment with your core values and character. By focusing on the primary elements and requirements to overcome obstacles and engaging your own creativity, you can develop an expansive mindset that propels you to greatness.

      If you feel you are not growing like you should, or are not satisfied with where you are right now, it doesn’t have to be that way. Challenge yourself to make the necessary changes in your life today.

      So let’s embark on the journey necessary to excavate your vision, helping you to realize your true passion and run after your dreams. Caution! It doesn’t always put you in a comfortable position. And that’s okay.

      CHAPTER 1

      CAPTIVITY IN COMPLACENCY

      Complacency is the deadly enemy of spiritual progress. The contented soul is the stagnant soul.

      - Aiden Wilson Tozer

      BLINDSIDED BY LIFE

      In a moment, life as you know it can be altered. One is reminded of that when a loved one has suddenly passed on, a job is taken without notice or reason, or a fatal diagnosis is given. At the time of the event, it can be peculiar and disconcerting. In some form, it is life’s way of asking, What are you made of? How will this event define you? Will you retreat into your emotional bomb shelter and yield to the circumstances, allowing them to dictate your existence? Or will you engage it head on and transform into a powerful being that can harness those circumstances for the benefit of others?

      Yes, it’s easy to become indignant when faced with the mysteries of life and the unjustifiable suffering that takes place in this world. One of the biggest challenges in life is to avoid discounting your self-worth or value. You don’t know who you are until you are really tested. So live life expecting the unexpected with the preconceived notion that every event you encounter is meant to empower you. Because it’s your thoughts that become your feelings, and your feelings become your energy, which shifts to your conscious awareness and your actions. When trials and tribulations come, they will reveal what is truly inside your heart.

      Make it a practice today to start resisting the crutch of comfort. It takes security in one’s self-worth to acknowledge discouragement but not be defeated. This will allow you to acquire a renewed determination and resilience towards cataclysmic challenges. You then take on life obstacles as challenges to be overcome and define them as opportunities.

      It is also important for you to understand that one should never be too comfortable and overconfident, naively trusting of others, or fail to properly evaluate the environment around you. Life is dynamic, so you must be willing and able to adjust or you will be psychologically extinct. I will cover this in detail later on in this chapter.

      There is no logical answer to the mysteries of unforeseen pain or tribulations in life. But what we do know is that they will produce a passion and purpose within, if you are open to allowing it to manifest. Do not make the mistake that so many do of focusing more on the outer circumstances rather than the internal conditioning. Start by scrupulously identifying your low-level thoughts, feelings and disbeliefs, which hinder you from your greatness.

      You must wake up every morning knowing that no matter what unknown influential circumstances may unveil themselves, you are totally responsible for the meaning and power given to them. When I am a guest speaker on-stage, the event host loves when I break down the steps to counter attacking being blindsided to the audience. It’s all a matter of constructing a solid foundation and action plan, then living into them intentionally. This will shape your perspective to face any adversity.

      Be warned. The journey you are about to take part in may be thought provoking to you, but it’s never too late to improve and make changes within your life. All you have to do is make the decision to simply live with defined intentions.

      ALLOWING APATHY TO RULE

      When one becomes indifferent to the needs of themselves and the society they were created to serve, the door is opened to living a life of mediocrity. Passion is relinquished and you’re a walking living death sentence. You’re completely satisfied with working in a mundane job serving a 15 to 25-year sentence with the possibility of pension and retirement. You’ve surrounded yourself with energy draining relationships that are not empowering you. You’re neglecting enhancing your mind state and physical well-being. This is truly a calamity, because no one was designed to be mediocre.

      The key is not to wait for the motivation to come and apathy to dissipate. In order to escape the mundane, you need to engage in your freedom of expression. Allow yourself to be inquisitive, imaginative and uninhibited to the wonders of life. This will bring you to a place of exploration deep down inside. The state of wonder is where you will find your heart’s true desire.

      Understand that you don’t have to be an overnight success and accomplish all your goals at once. Allow momentum to build naturally by taking it one action step at a time. Commit to one single positive change that will impact your psyche, and then do it every day until it becomes a habit. Once you’ve mastered that new habit, add another, then rinse and repeat this cycle as part of your lifestyle.

      Consistently focusing on one goal at a time will help you maintain the energy and motivation needed to accomplish it. This will also inspire you to know that when you have laser focus, carrying out any challenging task is possible. Don’t only look at how far you have to go but how far you have come. It’s about incremental improvement within your daily life and mental habits.

      Once you learn what you want and have begun taking healthy action to achieve it, you need to maintain a willing and eager state of being. In order to do this, you need to invest time into appreciating your improvements. Do not take yourself and what you’ve done for granted. Review and relish in what you’ve created by simply applying your will to it. You then build a stronger bond to your passion and goals, as well as build trust in yourself that you can improve your life no matter what. Set your goals and make a plan to achieve them one by one. It will make you accountable for your own results. As you strive to achieve them, you can undoubtedly expect that there will be setbacks and disappointments. Don’t be dismayed, the road to your dreams is never an easy one. This is where laser focus and diligence will aid you in battling the winds of change. Remember no matter where the path will lead you, it’s the right direction. Let go of expectations of how the process should look. Realignment is a part of
