Becoming who you are means removing layers of who you are not. Zen Buddhism and the Bodhisattva vow teach the importance of mindfulness, self-acceptance, and treating oneself and others with respect and care. Living out loud and sharing vulnerability can create connections and help others feel less alone. Practicing self-compassion and overcoming self-criticism are crucial for personal well-being. Getting started with meditation can be done through apps like Headspace, Calm, and Waking Up. Start a meditation practice by using meditation apps or attending local meditation centers. Take action and start somewhere, even if it's small, to avoid getting overwhelmed by choices. Simplify belongings and focus on actions rather than material possessions. Set intentions and goals to guide your actions and progress. Experiment and embrace emergence in your personal and professional development. Consider podcasting as a medium to share ideas and engage with listeners. Integrate podcasting into courses and coaching programs to enhance the learning experience.
