心靈書架 Spiritual Bookshelf スピリチュアルな 本棚 Spirituelles Bücherregal
Podcast名字『心靈深處』的由來，是因為在每個人的內心深處，都有一個看不見的書架，上面擺放著各式各樣的書，可能是一本自己過去所讀過而且對自己幫助很大的好書，也可能是某一段人生經歷在心靈深處所刻劃出的一本無形的書。
The name “Spiritual Bookshelf” comes from the idea that deep within everyone, there’s an invisible bookshelf. This bookshelf holds all kinds of books—it could be a great book you’ve read in the past that helped you a lot, or an invisible book shaped by your life experiences, etched into your soul.
ポッドキャストの名前『スピリチュアルな 本棚 』、人の心の奥深くに「見えない本棚」があるという考えに由来します。その本棚にはいろいろな本が並んでいます。過去に読んで自分を大きく助けてくれた本だったり、人生経験から心に刻まれた「目に見えない本」だったりします。
Der Name „Spiritual Bookshelf“ stammt von der Idee, dass jeder tief in sich ein unsichtbares Bücherregal hat. Dieses Regal enthält viele verschiedene Bücher – vielleicht ein Buch, das dein Leben verändert hat, oder ein unsichtbares Buch, das aus deinen Lebenserfahrungen entstanden ist und in deiner Seele verewigt ist.

Spiritual Bookshelf Episode 30 :How to initiate self-change? Part 2
Hi there! I hope you’re doing well this week.
Let’s dive back into our series on The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey. Today, we’ll explore two powerful habits:
3. Take Back the Power of Choice – Be Proactive
Being proactive doesn’t just mean taking action or being enthusiastic. It’s really about taking responsibility for our lives—making choices based on values rather than emotions or circumstances.
Covey introduces a powerful idea: “Between stimulus and response, there is a space.”
And in that space lies our freedom to choose. That’s what makes us human—not just reacting like animals, but deciding how we respond.
Proactive people make choices based on principles, logic, and long-term values.
Reactive people, on the other hand, let external things—like the weather, other people’s moods, or past habits—decide how they act. They often blame, complain, or feel like victims.
What we say to ourselves really matters. Our brain listens closely and takes those words seriously. If we keep saying things like, “I can’t do this” or “This is too hard,” our brain starts to believe it’s true. But if we say, “I can learn this,” or “Let me try another way,” our brain looks for solutions. Psychologist Carol Dweck calls this a “growth mindset.” It helps us embrace challenges, keep learning, and not give up too easily.
Negative words lead to a “fixed mindset”—where we avoid effort and fear failure.
Even worse, when we use negative self-talk like “I’m a failure,” it triggers the part of our brain tied to fear and anxiety.
But if we speak with hope—saying things like “This is hard, but I’m growing,” or “I’m thankful for today”—we activate parts of the brain that handle creativity and self-control.
In other words, our words don’t just express what we think—they train our brains to focus on fear or on hope.
4. Begin with the End in Mind
This habit is all about living with direction—knowing where you want to go in life, and making sure your daily choices lead you there.
In the book, Covey asks a powerful question:Imagine attending a funeral—and it’s your own. What do you want people to say about your life?
This thought exercise helps us reflect on what really matters: What legacy do we want to leave? What kind of person do we want to become? Are we living today in a way that supports that vision?
Covey says that everything is created twice: First in our minds, and then in the real world.
Like building a house—you design the blueprint first, then build it.
If you don’t design your life, you might end up living someone else’s plan. To live intentionally, we can create a Personal Mission Statement.
Think of it as your personal compass or life motto. It answers questions like:
Covey warns: If we don’t design our own life blueprint, we might just live out other people’s expectations. We’ll be reacting to the world instead of choosing our own path.
Life is like a ship. Without a destination, we drift—chasing trends, responding to pressure, and often feeling empty.
Our brains love comfort. If we don’t have a strong vision, we tend to choose the easiest path: Stick with a “safe” job, copy what others are doing, or waste time on distractions.
But when we have a clear personal vision, it acts like an inner ignition. It gives us the energy to plan, grow, and keep moving—even when things get tough.
Without vision, we compare ourselves to others and feel anxious. But with vision, we stay grounded in who we want to become—and why that matters.
