DON'T BE BETTER BE YOU!

in motivation •  7 years ago 

As a person who believes in self improvement, I do not totally agree with you. Am sure you are someone who believes quite a lot in predestination, well I don't. Because, I'll compare this with the article I read from you some time ago. We are not moons, we are sons. A son has the authority to choose to be what he believes is good or a better person.

Do you mean that a person who's born wit kleptomaniac spirit, should settle to becoming his real self - a thief?

Someone who's born with the natural tendency to sleep with little kids settle into becoming his real him - a paedophile?

How about someone who's psychic is built to be a serial killer. He enjoys from killing people and sometimes become ill and depress if he haven't had someone to kill for a while. Maybe we should not arrest them cause they were simply being themselves.

Don't get me wrong, I get your message, but what am saying is that we have the power to choose what we want. And if what we are isn't what we aim to be, them change course and become a better you.

Wow i love this, its one of the beat comments i have had so far,its constructive and all.

okay let me explain something, yes i believe in predestination, i believe God predestined us to be someone for a particular reason, but God has never built anyone to be a psychic killer, or predestined anyone to sleep with little kids, that's a result of that person's upbringing,environment and self concept, not predestination.

we are all here for a reason,to serve a particular purpose just like different parts of a car come together and function to make the car move, the fact that an engine plug becomes faulty is not because the manufacturer made it so, the manufacturer,created that plug, with a vision in mind,he saw how the plug could bring power to the engine then he created it and put it there, but if that plug works or functions ,or causes the car to blow up is based on the actions of the person who brought that car,not the manufacturer.

I hope you get my point, so what i am saying is find out how you were supposed to fit in the plan of domination, God has made for man and then become that person because that's who you truly are, not what your environment has caused you to become,so don't a better version of who you environment has caused you to be for example (a better faulty-engine plug) ,become the real you(your predestined self)

Ow....i totally agree with your point....but i feel circumstances have painted images into people...images that they are not.....and trying to be better at serial killing or child molestation does not speak good both for the serial killer or the pedophile. Well, what i feel is that @emmanueladam91 could have included something like " find the good you and choose to be it" or "you have more in store that can positively affect the world, find it and keep being you"...

Anyways, it's a beautiful article

@paterheritage its obvious you read @lordjames comment and didn't read my reply,pls do well to read it, thank you
