<center><h4>This week the EcoTrain community asks us, What Prevents Action?</h4></center>

<i>There are so many possible answers to this question. For one, we all lead different lives and we are all at different stages, with each of us devoting our time to the things we vale the most. But the more I thought about this question, The more I came back to the same thing over and over again, the reason why I believe, so many of us do not take action, is because we have become so divided and disconnected.</i>

There are so many different issues that need our attention, from the way in which we treat the environment, to the way in which we treat other beings.

With all this injustice in the world, perhaps we also just don't know where to start, so we end up becoming completely overwhelmed by everything. And anyway, what can one person really do, in the grand scheme of things!

Because of this mentality , we have no idea how powerful we actually are and how much change we can in fact create. We spend our lives, following rules and regulations, falling into a false sense of security. Where our lives become somewhat repetitive and we grow to enjoy our creature comforts.

<b>So change of any kind, can seem really daunting, down right scary in fact, so much so, that we just keep doing what we have always done, for fear of rocking the boat. All the while, becoming more and more dependent, on the very system that is disempowering us!</b>

Because we have been lied to and manipulated so much, it can be really hard to reach the truth, as it hidden beneath layers of deception. Throw in the influence of the media and the government officials and we get confused about which side is which and forget that both sides, are in fact a part of the same bird. 

<i>This drives a wider division amongst us all, where we continue to get distracted by what we are told, turning further and further away from our own truth and instead following the truth that we are told to believe.</i>


From here we find ourselves on different sides, with each side also possessing many different sides within it. Suddenly, there are so many causes to fight for, with some of them being manipulated by people in power to push certain agenda’s. When you speak out, then you are suddenly labeled as being a certain type of person. Resulting in us been pitted against one another.

<i>Just recently someone said to me, that they did not believe that this Plandemic, was their fight. That there were other things, that were more important. Yet what is more important than our freedom, because if we do not have that, then how can we fight any others? Perhaps fight is not the best word, but right now it does seem like a fight to me!</i>


And this is where perception comes into play and how they way in which we perceive things, affects how active we will be. All things are connected after all and if we lose one of our most fundamental human rights, then the rest will follow!

If there is one thing, that we should become proactive about, it should be to bring us all together so that we can create a better world, but we are still too divided for that. There are still too many people who have faith in their governments and believe that eventually everything will work out or indeed return to normal.


On top of all the media that we consume, we also need to look at what we eat and drink. To look at what we choose to digest to nourish our bodies and our minds. Some foods make us sluggish and instead of energizing us, they deplete us. So many people overeat, because their bodies are not receiving the nourishment they need, so they rarely feel satisfied or full. 

<i>So how can we expect to be proactive when our bodies are so run down.</i>

<b>The first course of action, should always be self love, because when we learn to accept and love ourselves, then we can do the same for others. Action is all about bringing about change and any change needs to start with self. And we need to be empowered in order to do that. Perhaps, this is the root of it, after all.</b> 

<h5>If we do not believe we deserve any better, then why would we fight for something better. At the end of the day, we are holding ourselves back the most, because of how we view ourselves and because of how we treat ourselves. </h5>
