Karmic Law #2 - Don't be so full of yourself that you aren't able to swallow your pride.

Pride is the downfall of a man's character. It's an insensitive conclusion from an irrational decision which pits your consciousness against your ego. Your ego, if not properly trained and controlled, will most certainly run rampant and cloud every thoughtful decision and cause you to form unsound judgements. The conclusion will always lead to regret.

By learning to accept your own point of view and keep your sense of self worth in tune with your mental acumen you'll have the necessary awareness to look at a given situation from different vantage points and perspectives, thus giving you more options for dealing with said situation.

These various choices are what seperate mature, masculine thinking from spontaneous/irrational decisions which will not merit any worthwhile experience.

Keeping a high regard for your own opinion and the opinions of your brothers and sisters will enable you to not only accept constructive criticisms but, more importantly, give you the foresight to pass your confidence onward.

The Karmic Laws:

Karmic Law #1 - Love yourself thoroughly without regret or hindrance.

Gaining an understanding of who you are in every facet of your existence will raise your awareness and awaken the immense potential you have locked within your self.

If you want to gain mastery of your own destiny and lose your fear of the future, you first need to express your love for yourself and hold tight the reigns of your life.

This is the number one step. It is also the most frightening. Becoming aware of the possibilities when you successfully accept your desire to succeed is like finding the X mark on the treasure map of your own life! You will still have challenges and roadblocks but with The Karmic Laws you'll be able to find new roads to detour around and continue ahead on the path of progress.

Only you can control the power of your destiny. The right you're given from birth is the power to control ONLY what is yours: your mind, actions, emotions, behaviors, attitudes, your immediate surroundings and your own personal boundary.

This is what you own.

The abuse of our power comes when we believe we know what's best for someone else and delegate our beliefs onto them. If you want to feel a sense of intimate power and control over your own life, simply respect another's autonomy and they will listen to what you have to say and thus internalize it.

Inside of us all we have a boundless generator of energy. Our goal is to manipulate this energy for the betterment of our own lives and focus it outward through our thoughts, words and actions.
The moment you realize how precious this energy is and use this power wisely, you are given more of it exponentially.

As I add more and more of The Laws it will become clear as crystal that every personal relationship, whether it be casual dating, committed relationships, marriages, family, close friends and colleagues; all are the end result of how much you love yourself and respect your personal boundaries.
