Hello, hello and welcome to the Borealis

experience. I'm your host Aurora.

And I'm very happy to be spending some time with you

today. Today I want to talk about the importance of

celebrating yourself. Many of you know that it was my birthday

yesterday, it was a lovely day,

I watched a soccer game with my family, Germany against England,

Germany lost to zero. And then afterwards, we went to the lake

and enjoyed some cooling water in this hot temperature. And I

received so many messages, maybe over 200 messages to praise me

to congratulate me and make me feel loved. And what I noticed

was that, at first, I had a hard time to receive it. I had a hard

time to receive thank you for my work.

Thank you for being there and a precious light for others. There

was a part of me that totally wanted to reject

it and not read it. And this is what I want to talk about today.

with you. I feel in our society here and northern American

Europe, even it is a bad thing. To be proud of yourself, it is a

bad thing to celebrate yourself. You're right away, seen as a

narcissistic, selfish, vain person. And not to say that it

doesn't exist out there. But I feel we're doing quite the

opposite. We feel that most of the time, we can only relate to

other people and bringing ourselves down, making ourselves

small. on a physical level, I know totally exists in

conversation with women, maybe with guys too. But we're always

trying to make the other person feel good in expressing how

unhappy and sarcastic

we feel with our body. And when it comes to a job, or romantic

relationships or friendships, it is also usually negative things

that we share. Because maybe we feel if we express that we're so

happy and content. In reality, that people will be jealous,

people will feel small

and inferior. And we'd rather share the shitty parts of our

relationships and our jobs. Then the good parts. And don't get me

wrong. Like sometimes it's fun to just purge out vent and say

everything that is negative. But I want to emphasize that it is

so important to focus on the things that are good. And if you

share those good things with people, yes, they will be the

people who are jealous and insecure, not confident with

what they have. But you will also inspire them to step up

their game. And this is so important. Just as important as

being brutally honest with your loved ones and your friends

because you help them grow.

It is very important. To share your authentic journey, and to

not boil it down, to not dim your light. Because you do that,

to your own detriment. You have to shine bright, you have to be

proud of yourself and feel good with everything you have

accomplished. If you constantly feel that you cannot share your

successes, you cannot share your happiness, you have to radically

change your surroundings, especially the people you are

interacting with. You cannot run around and always express the

negatives in order to make another person feel more

comfortable. You have to express yourself authentically, of

course, not fake playing of goodness, but authentically. And

then others might feel inferior for a little bit might feel

challenged for a little bit. But that is okay. You can be an

inspiration to them. You don't need to be an asshole. And

purpose fully make them feel shitty. You help them to get

unstuck you help them to look into the mirror, you help them

to become their best version. And most importantly, you allow

yourself to be authentic. Because it is not being

authentic, to hide good things from others and to Yeah, hide

the fact that you might have made really good money that you

might have failed, made, met your soulmate. And you're so

incredibly rich and happy with your life. So in German, we say

throw some confetti at yourself. Be happy with where you're at,

appreciate yourself fully. and express this, show this to other

people too. Chances are you will live a more authentic life when

you do that. Because the people that are not good for you are

going to fall off and swim and bitterness and self pity. And

the people that are meant to be in your life, you're

automatically gonna magnetize into your life and from your

heart, you will feel so real and so authentic. That words can

really explain. Thank you so much for listening to this

expressing the goodness is appreciating the goodness which

will attract more goodness. Thank you for listening. Bye bye
