7 Things You Need to Know About Metanoia

Whether you decide to treat people with more kindness or you’ve made the decision to be happy, trying to understand the world around you is a daunting task. As you go about your daily life, the decision to make responsible choices determines whether you will be happy at the end of it. The world we live in is cruel and requires you to be well motivated and have a clear purpose.

As the Greeks call it, ‘metanoia’ is a process of focusing your mind on the things that matter. Whether you are changing emotionally or psychologically in order to get to where you want to be, the struggle will always be worth the effort. If you are ready for the journey, here are a few things to keep in mind: 

What You Need To Know About Metanoia

First thing about Metanoia: Learn to realize when relationships have served their purpose- Most of us hold on to relationships that open or change our view of the world without realizing that they have already served their purpose.

Loving yourself first will allow you to love others as well, and commit to making someone else’s wellbeing as important as our own.

Fifth thing about Metanoia: Do not expect yourself to have a solution to every problem, because let’s face it, you can’t! Your willingness to try is what determines whether you will succeed, rather than the certainty of doing so. Even though we cannot prove the origin of life, for example, our society or culture is dictated by teachings about this unknown. Having faith in our beliefs tends to give us happiness, sense of direction and peace of mind. Even though this is not always the case, trusting the process is a critical step into living our best life.

Sixth thing about Metanoia: If you don’t believe in anything, it does not mean that you are lost. Some of us try so hard to develop a passion for things that do not resonate with u...
