About Risingbean
Welcome to risingbean.com, a personal development site for people who wish to face their fears, live more adventurously, and see the almost magical results from being courageous. Of course, I will be the guinea pig and lead by example to encourage you to start taking those first steps. By fears, I specifically mean false, mental fears, not real, imminent danger. This includes the fear of being alone, fear or rejection, fear of failure, fear of other people’s opinions of you, and much, much more.
So, whether you wish to go vagabonding around the world, make friends with strangers, or simply live your life with complete clarity and purpose, I want to inspire you to take those necessary actions to help get you there. Here’s a good example of what I’m all about:
Life is too short to live in mediocrity and play small! There are choices available and plenty of opportunities once you open yourself to them. When you reach the end of your life, do you want to look back and see it full of great relationships, fantastic memories, incredible experiences, and full of abundance? Stop delaying! Make now the time to create that life.
More and more people are being empowered by knowledge, questioning old routines, and seeking to enhance themselves. Here are some main areas of your life which courage can be applied, with some examples:
Health – acknowledging your current health, taking bold steps to improve it
Wealth – facing financial uncertainty, having gratitude, living in abundance, learning what true wealth is (hint: it’s non-monetary!)
Career – starting your own business, leaving a job that feels like a JOB, doing what you love, starting all over again
Relationships – approaching women in public, letting a guy know you’re interested in him, ending a relationship that’s dragging you down
Emotional – taking steps to improve negative behavior patterns, not playing a pawn to one’s emotions, not reacting to other people’s unconscious (negative) behavior
Spirituality – mastering one’s mind, seeking unity and not division amongst everyone
Adventure – traveling to that so-called “dangerous” country and discovering the opposite, outdoor adventure, constantly trying new things
Here is what you will find on this site:
- Fearlessness, breaking bonds with comfort and security and living an exciting life
- Self-discipline: replacing bad habits with good ones
- Dreams and goals achievement, the fun way
- Organization and uncluttering your life, mentally and physically
- Living in the moment
- World class health and well-being
- Balance – becoming a 10 in every area of your life
- Work, career, and entrepreneurship
- Inspiration and challenges for fun and adventurous living
- Social intelligence and relationships
- Independent travel and adventure
- Environmentally conscious living
Most importantly, it all comes down to you. I can write myriads of articles to inspire you, but the real change comes when you decide to take action and dedicate yourself to continuous growth. True well-being goes beyond patching up problems and comes from devoted inner change.
However, I can tell you that the path will be fun and interesting if you persevere. The daily grinds and routines will break down giving way to new experiences. Little by little, as you build better habits, try new things, entertain different ways of thinking, the sum of these parts become a whole. You will see the world in a different light, stop living life reactively, learn to enjoy the journey, and create the life you want.
I myself will always be a student on this path, and I can tell you with 100% sincerity that there’s no chance I’ll ever go back.
On the other side of fear lies freedom!
