To be the same or different than your parents?

Thank author of this post/commentWhat kind of negative concepts did your parents instill in your subconscious mind when you were a child? Can you break free of them?

These are some I've discovered. Some I remember clearly, others have come out more recently my thinking about repeating topics in their conversations.

I've also noted how I've strived to be different

"life is difficult" - What a terrible concept to embedded in the mind of a child!

I want to enjoy life and find fulfillment in conquering the challenges that occur from time to time.

"too busy"

"need to save time"

I want plenty of activities to keep my body and mind active but not to the point of over exhaustion or feeling overwhelming.

"big big big house" - Bigger is better but at what cost? Should the place we live make us feel like we're carrying around a 250lb sack of potatoes every day?

I want to live in a comfortable environment which is compatible with my current (and future) financial resources. To feel comfortable with change of living accommodations as financial resources or concepts of "comfort" change.

"collecting stuff" - Why embed your child with the burden of carrying around another 250 lb sack of potatoes?

I want to have a few things that I enjoy and to freely release those things that I no longer derive any direct enjoyment from.

"no money" - The subconscious ideal installed over money was not only one of lack, but of hatred for those who did attain financial success.

To be happy for those who are financially successful. If I am not happy for someone to be financially successful, I can't see how I could be happy for my own financial success.

"worry" - You could disable someone worse than a car accident by programming their subconscious to see only the risks in an activity.

To keep a realistic view of risks, but not to let my mind wander too far into all the dark cracks that I become dysfunctional.

Thank author of this post/comment"parental influences"

Messages from our parents, those in our awareness and active just below our awareness, are extremely powerful. For good or ill, they shape our lives. Becoming aware of what they are is a life-long process. Awareness is the first step in altering those influences.

A tendency is to go to the opposite extreme--"I'm not like my parents"--if they are too frugal, one might become a spendthrift; if too severe, too lenient, etc. A swing to the polar opposite point of view is just another way of reacting, not a true change.

"I'm careful with money, but not frugal" or, "I'm as generous with my time and money as I am able" are modulations that say you are your own person, acting out of your own values.

Thank author of this post/comment"Learning from our parents"

I think that we are all instilled with values and habits from our parents, whether they influence us to be like them or different than them.

I think it is incredibly difficult to break out of what you have always known. It is way harder for people to stop habits that comfort them, when the very items you wish us to get rid of, bring us comfort just being here.

I think just my saying that shows I am hardly able to see the light from the STUFF around me.

Thank author of this post/comment"to stuff or not to stuff"

It feels like you have taken the first steps on the adventurous road of self-discovery. Seeing, naming, and deciding about all the stuff of your life is just right. It doesn't mean that you'll decide something is bad for you and it'll change over night (but maybe you have more discipline than I), but even to change it ONE TIME is a big deal. Really.

You're right about comfort. The flip side is usually fear, expressed in usual or atypical ways--anxiety, moodiness, confusion, etc.. It may be unusual, since you haven't been this way before. A degree of confusion is to be expected. It's a really good learning place.

It can't be too uncomfortable or we just can't do it. The acceptance of those around us is a big help. Let them know you're confused--it may help them understand. The unequivocal support of a trained person may be worth the investment.

Knowledge is power. When we know better, we can do better.

Welcome to the road!
