Face your shadow

in Motivation Story3 years ago

Hi guys, Stay enlightened.

I took this shadow of myself to explain a point. I hope we get the point.

In analytical psychology, the shadow is referred to either an unconscious aspect of the personality that the conscious ego does not identify in itself or one’s fully unconscious self-i.e. everything of one which is not fully conscious of.

Most people carry a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is. According to Jung, the shadow is the unknown dark side of everyone’s personality.

This is usually part of people’s life they suppress. They hate to remember it because it arouses anxiety whenever they do remember it.

The shadow is responsible for certain behaviors and aversions that people express even without knowing that those shadows are the reasons for their actions.

It is not a pleasant experience facing these shadows, but one’s ability to face these shadows gives victory. The most Self-Actualized people in life have been heard to speak on how they have faced their shadows, as it has helped to unveil the masks that are capable of limiting their lives.
We all have got the choice to do so.

Thank you for reading
