Why Is Deconstruction Important?

Why Is Deconstruction Important? Deconstruction and Co-creation Are A Couple Deconstruction and co-creation are vital to your understanding of life and how you understand the good and bad things that happen to you. Some things are out of your control, such as the weather. Yet plenty of scenarios are dependent on your interaction with other people and the world around you. Understanding how this process happens and how you can shape it leads to you achieving your life goals. Why is co-creation important? Every interaction you have is a co-creation. Your thoughts, your feelings, and your actions are all co-creations. But what does that mean? What is co-creation? A co-creation is when two or more people come together for a common goal, whether to chat about their day or collaborate on an art project. Co-creation can be mutually beneficial, selfish, or a mix of the two. It’s about coming together to solve a problem to make things better for everyone involved. Considering this definition and understanding of co-creation, it then becomes clear why it’s so important. Co-creation is the only way we can solve problems. Problems can’t be solved by yourself as there is always someone else involved. To deny co-creation and deny yourself the other person’s perspective in any given problem is to shut out a vast potential source of information and experience. This information could be beneficial to everyone involved. If you refuse to co-create, it is likely because you don’t feel like your problems are significant enough for anyone else to be bothered with them. But remember, problems aren’t just yours; they affect those around you too, family, friends, co-workers, even strangers on the street. Nature embeds us into our reality, and everything and everybody is co-creating that reality with you. They are not just living their lives; they live a life that is emotionally and mentally affected by your actions too. Am I Alone? You are not alone in your problems. The power of co-creation gives you access to the other person’s perspective to make a better decision. Your problems become someone else’s hopes, fears, and desires too. Let go of the belief that people don’t care and start creating with them. Let them know that you care about something important enough to want to hear their perspective on it. You will be surprised at how much they will help you out as soon as you let them know they can help you. And maybe, just maybe, they have been waiting for you to ask. Get actively involved in developing your co-creations and co-creating with others. And remember to be open to other’s perspectives, it is a vast world out there, and no one has all the answers. Each perspective is a piece of the puzzle that helps us put together how we want our reality to look. Let’s create a better reality for everyone through understanding our co-creation! Interpretation Our experience of life is how we interpret the things around us, including our online experience. Everything we experience is either processed rationally or emotionally. The way we interpret things influences the decisions we make and the goals we set. To live a life living up to our full potential, we must become better creators of our reality. How you rationalize and explain things is what leads to your interpretations. You base your decisions on your interpretations of why something bad happened or how something good happened. We have very firmly embedded interpretations in our everyday lives. As much as they have a significant effect on how we act and react, most people don’t know how they came about them in the first place. They may not even know why they exist at all. People accept their interpretations as truth and live their lives rationalizing everything. Being stuck in the rationalization phase of thinking is very limiting. It doesn’t explain why things are. It simply explains why they happen after they happen. This lack of understanding can make it hard to learn from our mistakes or understand our feelings. Therefore, we cannot seek out how we can change or improve them to create a better reality for ourselves. If you experience life emotionally without questioning your interpretations, you are just experiencing life without reason. Living a life without reasoning behind your actions or decisions is living a random existence. As a result, you lack power in your future because you do not understand your actions’ possible consequences. Life without reason, especially regarding our imagined interpretations, is a life we are not worthy of because we fail to learn and keep repeating the same broken behaviours. Understanding How Deconstruction and Co-creation Work Together Understanding our interpretations and being aware of irrationality is the first step towards improving them and living a more satisfying life. We can start changing them by understanding how to deconstruct our rationalizations and construct a new reality with a different interpretation. When we take the guesswork out of the situation by seeking clarity from the other people involved, we gain an adequate idea. Until then, our ideas are inadequate as our imagination fills in the blanks. Our imagination cannot know what the other person is thinking without asking, and even then, they may lie. It is better to sit with an adequate idea and not complete the puzzle with the wrong pieces, distorting the picture. Changing your interpretations is possible through meditation and self-reflection. For meditation, sit back for ten minutes a day and observe your thoughts. It only takes ten minutes to notice when you become caught up in your emotional patterns or others’ opinions that aren’t even fully formed yet. This exercise is an excellent start to understanding. So, to understand more deeply and start with your practice, read this article on The Heart of Practice. https://deborahbutler.eu/the-heart-of-practice/ First, we need to deconstruct our prejudices and learned conditioning that is attached to our interpretations. The way to do this is through observation. Pay attention to everything that goes on around you without attaching a meaning to it or judging it in any way. Why Are Deconstruction and Co-creation Important? Deconstructing your interpretation doesn’t necessarily involve trying to change it, just learning more about the thought that you had and why you think the way you do. Take pride in your ability to think but always question if what you’re thinking about something is worth bringing up at all. If the thought isn’t significant enough, then don’t give it any power or attention by interpreting it as authentic or rational in any way. Co-creation is the first step to changing your reality, and if you can’t create a different interpretation of things, you will never be able to create a new reality. To co-create, you need to understand that the world around us is not static. Things are constantly changing, whether we notice it or not. And it is your interpretations of these changes that will either lead to a new creation or keep you in old and possibly unhealthy patterns. If you have an explanation for why something is the way it is, chances are it wasn’t always the way it was. It changed at some point and got there based on a reason and an interpretation. So, anything could change again for the same reason and with the correct interpretations. How to Deconstruct Deconstruct your own interpretations of what you see by observing everything without judging or giving it a meaning. Learn to trust that learning doesn’t require judgments or labelling. Deconstruct and reconstruct new interpretations by coming up with new explanations for things. Follow your logic and ask yourself why specific patterns exist in the first place. Going back to the ‘road not travelled’ example, why is there a road not travelled? Or how is that rock on the ground shaped like that? Learn to pay attention to patterns and look at things differently.
