Guilt-feeling

Guilt is one of the useless emotions. It keeps us immobilised. Guilt can become part of our emotional makeup in two ways:

First, guilt is Inherited. inherited guilt is absorbed from others, particularly from our parents or caregivers, who may have projected their own guilt onto us. Inherited guilt can be deeply ingrained and may manifest as feelings of unworthiness or self-blame.

The second way is the guilt we learned. This type of guilt is acquired through conditioning and societal norms. We learn what is considered right or wrong, good or bad, from our environment, and when we go against these learned beliefs or values, we experience guilt. This can include guilt related to cultural, religious, or social expectations.

But how we let go of this non useful emotions? To let go of the heavy emotions of guilt, the following steps are necessary:

First, recognize that you are experiencing guilt and acknowledge the specific reasons behind it. Understand that feeling guilty does not necessarily mean you have done something wrong; it may be a learned or inherited emotion that is not serving you positively.

Secondly, accept that you are human and that making mistakes is a part of the human experience. Forgive yourself for any perceived wrongdoings or mistakes you have made. Understand that holding onto guilt does not change the past but affects your present and future.

Thirdly, release the guilt by consciously deciding to let go of it. You can do this through meditation, affirmations, or simply making a firm decision to release it. Visualize the guilt leaving your body and mind, and replace it with feelings of peace and acceptance.

Beside, reflect on the experience that caused the guilt and see if there are any lessons to be learned from it. Use the experience as an opportunity for personal growth and development rather than dwelling on the negative emotions associated with it.

In addition, be kind and compassionate towards yourself. Treat yourself with the same understanding and forgiveness that you would offer to a friend facing a similar situation. Understand that you are worthy of love and forgiveness, regardless of past actions.

Sweet Spot

How do you create a digital strategy that involves customers in an energized social community?  How do you create an engaged, active “go-to” website?   Prophet's David Aaaker says, You must change the orientation of marketing from selling the offering, the brand, and firm to becoming an active partner with a shared interest program around a customer’s “sweet spot.” A sweet spot reflects customers’ “thinking and doing” time, beliefs and values, activities and passions, possessions or places they treasure. Ideally, it would be a part of, if not central to, their self-identity and lifestyle and reflect a higher-order value proposition, much beyond the benefits provided by the offering. To illustrate, Pampers went beyond diapers by creating the Pampers Village community that provides a “go to” place for all issues relating to babies and child care. Its five sections – pregnancy, newborn, baby, toddler, and preschooler – all have a menu of topics. Its online ...

It's yes because two powerful states in Asia: China and Russia have consolidated authoritarian regime, that the end points may not be visible soon.  These two forces are working tirelessly to globalize oligarchy and authoritarianism. Their gospels has been noised abroad. Their influences influences have been displayed in some nations (with pseudo democracy) in the global south,  In Africa, liberal democracy have been badly weaken by the character of people in leadership: abuse of offices, stealing of public funds without questions and necessary punishments, plus rigging of presidential elections, leading to changing fortunes ànd quagmires.
