The Velveteen Rabbit Challenge And Personal Growth

By Virginia Foster


When it comes to eliminating darkness and finding the light in life, it can often be difficult for some individuals. However, when it comes to the Velveteen Rabbit Challenge, that is exactly the plan. For, just think how refreshing it would be to see people become more rather than less motivated, take pride in work and display a sense of self-mastery when life provides challenges and obstacles.

Based on the reality that only through hard work are people able to discover true potential, the challenge is a good one. For, only when individuals can overcome these challenges and obstacles can one help others do so. As such, the ability to succeed and work toward goals and visions in the future is essential.

In most cases, change takes time so individuals may not see the results of the challenge for quite some time. However, when approached with trust, patience and compassion, most people are successful when it comes to rebirth. At the same time, it is often easier to hold on to older ways of doing things than moving forward with change. As such, it is important that individuals do not let professional growth get in the way of achieving important personal goals and successes.

Through self-examination and peeling back layers of residual pain and trauma, individuals can begin the re-birthing process into a truer sense of self. In undergoing the challenge, most people go through several periods of death and rebirth. In this case, death meaning the end of doing things the old way and re-birthing into a better, new and different and reality.

By taking a close look within the inner-self, individuals can examine present and past behavior and experiences without judgment or criticism. In doing so, individuals are allowed to awaken to this new reality by eliminating the dark aspects of the past. For, when individuals are holding to residual emotional pain and discomfort, it can often be transferred to others in different ways, often without knowledge.

Two of the most important aspects of the rabbit and change are understanding and acceptance. For, unless an individual understands the peace, love and understanding the rabbit represents, it can often be difficult to accept the presence within oneself. While this is the case, it can often take people quite some time to become aware of the rabbit and associated characteristics.

Whether that be, the loss of loved ones, sickness or threats, the peaceful energy of the rabbit has always been there. While this is the case, the spirit of the rabbit often gets lost in the darkness of the storm. Still, it is this energy which helps guide individuals back to the light.

While people may feel ragged, torn and exhausted, change can take place. For, if individuals have the courage to erase the past and move toward the future, change is a natural process. It is important to be aware of these changes to assure that negative behaviors are eliminated while positive change takes place. After which, if individuals grow and nurture these changes, the changes will become seeds of growth into a happier, healthier and more positive life experience.
