Ask Jordyn (Part 5): The Butterfly Effect

Have You hear of the butterfly effect. Well, today, we will take a deep dive into it. Let's get to it.===

[00:00:00] Tuoyo Eresanara: like, and of course there's also something the flip side of enjoy every moment you see, I was, I got lost in this piece for a while. It's called the butterfly effect. Have you ever heard of that?

[00:00:11] Jordyn Ruiz: Yes. Yeah.

[00:00:12] Tuoyo Eresanara: So I got lost in the negative aspect of that butterfly effect, but for those who are not familiar with it, the butterfly effect is that the flopping of a butterfly wings somewhere. Led to like wind pressures that ended up generating a tornado or hurricane that ended up causing major destructions or changes in people's communities.

[00:00:32] So it's the idea that the smallest things you do have such a huge impact. And that thing really crippled me a lot because then I stopped living. in the now. I was like, oh my God, what if I mess up? I make the wrong choice. Everything is going to be ruined. The world is going to be ruined. And I spiraled and I, yeah, I was scared of making decisions.

[00:00:54] I was scared of making mistakes and it took me a while to get out of that, but to learn to live right now and [00:01:00] just enjoy every morning, trust the Lord and live for today. 

[00:01:03] Jordyn Ruiz: And I think also the idea of like, knowing that what you do matters is such a important as important concept. Because if you think about it, we're all connected.

[00:01:14] And so if you're showing up at your best. You're doing yourself, a service, and you are doing others, a service too. And so I also used to think like, you know, about that sort of spiraling, like if I wasn't showing up my best, I was affecting so many other things that, you know, you need to sort of surrender to that and like, know that life is happening as it's supposed to happen.

[00:01:38] If we're not putting forceful with our forceful will on things and just showing up and even the best way possible, that's how you should be living your life. No constraints on yourself, but in a way that identifies with the parts of you that are unique, allow them to manifest themselves and live every moment as fully as you can.

[00:01:59] I [00:02:00] think these sort of like simplistic, maybe even cliche sort of ideas, the cliche for a reason there's truth in it. And so I totally agree with you. 

[00:02:10] Tuoyo Eresanara: Yes. Yeah. Wow. That's going really. That's really, really cool. Really, really cool.
