“We write our own destiny, we become what we do.” – Madame Chiang Kai-Shek, 1898-2003. Madame Chiang Kai-Shek was right and very insightful… the world is fatally writing its own destiny; the fundamental problems are the ego and culture. This refers to beliefs and patterns, attitudes, feelings, and habitats.

Through ego and culture, as we go about our daily lives, we think about ourselves and don’t stop to think about and put others first. We know what we know, we want what we want and ignore the bigger picture of how our lives impact others.

Comprehension and perceptions are key. We can see the good or we can see the bad. Habits are acquired thoughtlessly, some deadly in the longer run. Yet we are in control. But tapping into our unconscious thoughts, and dealing with those, means some of our conscious bad habits can be transformed.

But unless we want to change, nothing will change. Nothing can change unless we want change, unless we want to live better lives free of mental and emotional strife. Instead, we may continue to live our lives and change nothing.

Habituation as it is called, is a feature of nature and yet it is a two-edged sword. All it would take is an awareness, us wanting to change, civil discourse to enhance understanding and a little work thrown in for good measure. The point is we all matter, our very survival is depending upon it.

We need to work on self-restraint, we need to start to be pro-active, and change the way we think and change how we are with each other. Without the discipline and us wanting to see positive change in the world, we can fail and failing can be fatal.
