Routine, structure, and a pattern of process are all aspects of our lives that we all follow, although the specifics around our routine, the paths we follow, the tasks we complete, the habits, and decisions we make vary person to person. We all have a set pattern or structure that we follow on a day-to-day basis.

However, it's important to stop and reflect on our routines, structure and patterns of process on an evolutionary basis. Aspects of our life may change, our decisions may sway depending on our immediate surroundings, and there is a possibility that some parts of said structure no longer support our objectives or are somewhat counterproductive to our lives as a whole.

Unlearning, or the ability to separate ourselves from an aspect of habit or process, or routine in our lives, is a difficult challenge, usually fraught with a universally energized negative charge. As the understanding, knowledge, or experience may be embedded in our psyche at that present moment in time.

I think unlearning is a important skillset for us all learn. However, prior to reaching a point of separation from something that may have formed a counterproductive pattern in our lives, we first need to identify the root cause, its harmful effects, the benefits of removing or altering this pattern or habit in our lives, and then create a plan to move forward without it.

Over the course of our lives, we evolve, change, and various aspects of our train of thought, values, aspirations, and key drivers change too. Sometimes our structure, patterns, and routines can no longer serve our purpose and have the capacity to stagnate our growth or even create a reverse effect on our forward momentum. When we enter a period of questioning, questioning our performance against ourselves and our performance in the trajectory of improvement towards the people we wish to become, we need to review, revise, and, if relevant, unlearn a trait or pattern of process within our lives that no longer serves our fundamental drive forward.

I have had various habits or patterns of behaviour that don't serve me, and sometimes, due to a lack of self-awareness or for the sake of entertainment, it has been difficult to unlearn and let go of these habits. However, as I have learned more about myself, I have gained a better understanding of identifying these aspects and have been working towards creating pathways of improvement.

I now know, recognize, and understand the importance of being able to unlearn things that may have shaped the foundations of my life. Although this can create pressure, it also presents an opportunity for growth and improvement, which is a contributing factor in my search for happiness.

Thanks,
