Tearing Down to Build Anew

With all of the unrest and uncertainty happening in the U.S. and throughout the world, there are a lot of systems and institutions being questioned.  Some are being torn down completely.  And although this can be an extremely difficult or uncomfortable process at times, it is also very necessary on occasion so that something better can be created or built in its place.

MindValley founder Vishen Lakhiani calls this beautiful destruction, saying that "sometimes in life you have to destroy what is merely good to allow what is truly great to enter."  We see this not just on a global level, but also with our careers, relationships, belief systems, physical structures and our egos.  A healthy dose of inquiry and questioning our true values can help us determine with things need to be torn down and built anew.
