Living Who You Are – Your Unlimited Potential

More and more the words such as living authentically are coming into mass consciousness. What is living authentically? In simple terms it is knowing who you are and doing what you love. Just this in and of itself is a wonderful way to live, but there is more to living authentically, much more. If part of living authentically is knowing who you are, then this begs the question, ‘Who are you and how do you live from this place?’

I will speak more about who you are as our dialog continues, but when speaking of who you are I am referring to the two aspects that make up the human being in its totality. For now, let’s call these the bigger You1 and the personality you. The totality of Who you are contains both of these. The bigger You has many names, Soul, Higher Self, Authentic Self and so on and I will be using some of these names interchangeably.

Your bigger aspect is unlimited. Your personality self contains your potential. When you marry Who(the bigger You) you are with who you are(your personality self), you have Unlimited Potential. Living in a state of Unlimited Potential is an incredible way to live. Your life changes in wonderful ways beyond anything you can imagine, the least of which is that all your hopes, dreams and desires become manifest.

The difficulty is that most people live at odds with Who they are. They try to develop their potential but are very limited because they have not tapped into the unlimitedness of Who they are.

Who you are is Divine, powerful, and infinitely abundant. One of its essences is love. Another is freedom. When you live from the place of Who you are, you tap into your essence and experience its qualities. In doing so you too experience essences such as love, freedom, empowerment, abundance, and knowingness.

Many have a sense, or at least an inkling that they are part of a bigger totality. At times they know that they are powerful beings capable of creating the reality they desire, but the knowingness is fleeting and elusive. It is as though you can almost taste it, but can’t feel it in your mouth and there is nothing to chew on.

How do you live from the place of Who you are and tap into its unlimitedness? How do you bring together your personality self with your Higher Self? That’s what this series of guide posts is about. I will be discussing with you, in as easy terms as possible, how you can live in alignment to your unlimited aspects and experience your Unlimited Potential. I call this living an authentic life, as Who you are is the Authentic You.

In simple terms, your unlimited Self exists beyond the body (part of the personality self), which is limited by time and space, and the personality self that you are is something you take on and develop while in body. Not only do you need to develop your personality self to reach your potential, your personality self must be in alignment with Who you are to tap into its unlimitedness. Do this and you are running on all cylinders.

Next Chapter Where Does Your Soul Live?

  1. As an aside, I will be intentionally capitalizing the ‘W’ in Who when referring to who You are as your unlimited, Divine or authentic Self, to help you discern it from who you are the personality self, your potential self. I will being doing the same with the ‘S’ in Self, your authentic Self, as distinguished from ‘s’, your personality self, and the same for the ‘Y’ in you.
