Newsletter 4. The Hidden Power of Disappointment

Jun 08, 2025
Connect

Next to doubt, disappointment is another powerful emotion I often see in my clients—and have experienced deeply myself. While doubt is usually rooted in fear, disappointment arises from sadness and grief.

As with any emotion, the first and most crucial step is awareness. You need to become conscious of what you feel. That alone is incredibly important. If you’re not aware, your old habits will take over, and those habits are what keep your life from changing.

The second step? Pause.
Don’t act. Just stop.

Because the third step is to realign, to return to your authentic self, the version of you that is naturally enthusiastic, light, and alive.
And only then comes the fourth step: take action from that realigned, authentic self, guided by excitement and grounded in integrity.

That said, it’s equally important to really learn the dynamics of each emotion. That’s why this week’s blog is all about disappointment—an emotion that held me back far too long, delaying the full expression of my authentic self.

So, dear reader, let this be a loving reminder:
Be aware of your emotions.
They’re not in the way—they SHOW the way.

Oh—and for the more visual and auditory among us: I’ve made a video to go with this one. You can find it on both the website and YouTube.

Wishing you a meaningful week!


Blog article: Why do we feel disappointed – and what if it’s not a weakness, but a message? 

In this week’s article, I explore the emotion of disappointment. Not from the old perspective of “you should deal with it better,” but from the new paradigm of conscious creation.

What if your disappointment is a mirror? A sign that you're living from your acquired self instead of your authentic self?

This reflection changed the way I live. And it might change things for you too.

🌟 This Week’s Highlight: Masterclass Self-Empowerment

Are you ready to take a deeper step into conscious creation?

In this masterclass, you'll discover why your current reality isn’t random—and how to shift from unconscious patterns to intentional creation, fully aligned with who you really are.

This is for you if you:

  • feel there's more to you than you're currently living,

  • often get stuck in doubt, fear, or disappointment,

  • long for clarity, calm, and direction,

  • and are ready to create from your authentic self.

✨ Self-empowerment isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about finally becoming yourself.

The masterclass is available now—you can start today.

✨ Introducing: The Authenticity Circle

Coming soon: The Authenticity Circle

A mastermind-style call. A place for conscious creators to connect, reflect, and grow.

We meet. We share. We shift. Together.

→ Details will follow soon. 


Most people don’t realize they’re already manifesting all the time. The problem is: it’s unconscious. Your fears, assumptions, and old patterns are shaping your reality.
But here's the good news: since you’re already creating effortlessly, just unconsciously, you already have the skills. Now, imagine using that same creative power… with awareness, intention, and excitement.
That’s conscious creation. And it changes everything.

Newsletter #9 – Are you living from habit — or from freedom?
  ✨ A note from Guido For many years, I lived mostly from what I now call my acquired self — the part of me that tried to fit in, adapt, and please others. I didn’t realize it at the time, but by not living from my True Self, I left so much of life untouched. Relationships felt strained, work was harder than it needed to be, and inside I often felt like I was running in circles. Those challeng...
Newsletter #8 – A Message, a Reaction, a Realization
✨ A note from Guido This week, something small happened that wouldn't leave me alone.Two messages from my neighbour, about something I supposedly did while I was asleep. At first, I responded as I always do: polite, calm, reasonable.But my body didn't buy it.It kept telling me: there’s something here for you. Not something to fix.Something to feel. The story isn’t dramatic. But it stayed with ...
Newsletter 7 | Break free: Shifting  the beliefs that hold you back
Goodday to you! Most people think their thoughts reflect reality, but in truth, they reflect old beliefs. Beliefs you didn’t consciously choose. They were shaped by your childhood, society, painful moments, and unresolved emotions. And here’s the trap:What you believe, becomes your experience. A belief is like a lens through which you view life.If that lens says, “I’m not good enough,” you wil...
