Jim Carrey – ‘The Need For Acceptance Will Make You Invisible’

“I am here to plant a seed”, Jim begins during his 2014 Maharishi University of Management graduation speech.
And beautiful words they are as the truth is always that, we cannot be told or taught by anyone exactly what to do. We can only have seeds planted that we then must water, support and observe as we learn to stand on our own two feet.

So often in life these days we are coaxed into wanting attention, wanting acceptance and trying to be larger than life in the view of the ego. This is nothing more than a culture created to keep us trapped.

Life does not happen to you, it happens for you. Sure, there are things in life that are outside of our control, after all, we are always co-creating our reality. We are always agreeing with one another and creating what the collective needs to evolve, not just a single person.

This is why tuning into our hearts and what we truly are here to create is key because we will always be creating what’s serving for ourselves and for the collective.

In the incredible animation below, listen to Jim Carrey as he discusses fear, presence, who we truly are and how we can choose to make decisions in life.
