Until I was 16 or 17, I did not have the beauty mark near my lips. Then, at some point in my teenage years, two beauty marks appeared on my face, one on each side. Years later, one disappeared, and the other stayed. It became the beauty mark I still have today near my lips.
The story behind it goes back to high school. I was a teenager, deeply in love with a boy who had just joined my school. By the end of the year, we started falling for each other. Later, I moved to another high school, but we stayed together. We continued our love story, planned our future, and believed in it with the complete seriousness teenagers can have when they are in love.
For Valentine’s Day, we even had rings. I remember my dad’s assistant at work noticing mine and asking me if I had a fiancé at my age. I did not even understand the social meaning of wearing a solitaire ring. I simply said no. She told me I should remove it because people who might want to talk to me would think I was already engaged. I did not care. In my world, we were just two sweethearts in love, planning a future together.
My high school love was my first love. He had so many beauty marks that I used to call him the king of beauty marks. One day, I asked him to give me one next to my lips. He kissed me on both sides of my face with the intention of giving me two. I do not know exactly when the beauty marks appeared. I do not know if it was immediate or if it took a few days. I only know that the same week, I looked in the mirror, and they were there, two beauty marks, one on each side. Years later, one disappeared, and the other stayed.
For a long time, I thought this was just a sweet teenage memory. Today, I read it differently. I see it as a small miracle that two teenagers operating from love and somehow creating something in physical reality that did not exist before. You can call it a miracle, manifestation, consciousness, energy, coincidence, or the body responding to an emotional state. I am less interested in forcing one explanation than in observing the pattern that something existed first as desire and intention inside the frequency of love, and then it appeared in form.
That was not the only thing I personally manifested from the love frequency. When I look back, I think this is how I operated for most of my childhood and teenage years, before entering the adult world with its fears, rules, doubts, and conditioning. I would think about something, desire it with innocence, and somehow, life would bring it to me very quickly. At the time, I did not call it a manifestation. I did not have a theory for it. I was simply living in a state where desire was clean, love was natural, and reality felt much more responsive. I remember walking through life as if everything already belonged to me, not from arrogance, but from a deep sense of joy, trust, and connection. I was vibrating in an extremely joyful frequency, and life seemed to answer that frequency very quickly.
This is why I believe frequency is not an abstract concept. It is an operating state. The frequency from which we desire, choose, speak, build, and relate to ourselves changes the way reality responds to us. In my experience, love is one of the most powerful frequencies because it removes inner conflict. It makes desire less distorted. It makes creation more direct.
This article comes from a part of my upcoming book, The Fundable Identity, that I felt impatient to share with the world. I could have waited until the book was finished, polished, and ready, but something in me wanted this idea to reach someone now. I am sharing it because it may help someone recognize something they have felt but never had words for.
In the book, I go much deeper into consciousness, identity, and the way our inner world shapes external reality, especially for founders who want to bring their visions to life. Every founder is trying to turn something invisible into something physical. Before there is a product, a team, revenue, or validation, there is first an inner reality. There is a vision the founder has to hold before anyone else can fully see it.
This is why consciousness and identity are not abstract subjects to me. They are creation tools. A founder does not only build from strategy, capital, skills, or network. A founder builds from the level of identity they inhabit and from the frequency they operate from. Fear creates one kind of reality. Scarcity creates another. Pride creates another. Love, courage, peace, and trust create something completely different.
Society loves visible classes. We classify people by income, education, social background, nationality, family name, passport, degree, and professional title. These categories are real. They influence access, mobility, and opportunity. But they are not the full story. There are invisible classes, too. I call them frequency classes.
Two people can walk into the same room and experience two completely different realities. One sees rejection before anyone speaks. One sees opportunity. One feels threatened. One feels invited. One needs to prove. One is ready to connect. The room is the same, but the frequency is different.
This is why the frequency from which we operate matters more than most people want to admit. It shapes what we notice, what we believe, what we attract, and what we allow ourselves to receive.
David R. Hawkins’ Map of Consciousness gives a useful framework for this. The map presents consciousness as levels, moving from shame, guilt, fear, desire, anger, and pride toward courage, neutrality, willingness, acceptance, reason, love, joy, peace, and enlightenment. Whether you read it spiritually, psychologically, emotionally, or energetically, the insight is powerful, we do not only live in countries, cities, or income brackets. We live in states of consciousness, and those states shape the reality we experience.
The Map of Consciousness gave me language for something I was already seeing but could not fully name. The map shows that consciousness is not only an idea or a philosophy. It is lived through emotional states, through patterns of perception, and through the frequency from which a person meets life.
What this map reveals is simple but important: your emotional state is not secondary. It shapes the level from which you interpret reality, make decisions, respond to challenges, build relationships, and create your life. The same event can happen to two people, and they can experience two completely different realities because they are not interpreting it from the same state of consciousness.
This is also why the people around you matter far more than most people admit. Your partner, your friends, your family, your team, and the people closest to you are not neutral. Their emotional frequencies affect your standards, your nervous system, your decisions, and your sense of what life can become. We do not only exchange words, ideas, and actions with people. We exchange states.
What I also like about the map is that each level comes with a whole structure, a dominant emotional tone, a way of seeing life, a type of energy, and a process underneath it. So the map is not just naming feelings. It is showing the state a person is operating from and the kind of reality that state tends to produce.
In that structure, courage at 200 stands out as a real turning point. Without courage, life is often organized around survival, shame, guilt, fear, desire, anger, or pride. Above courage, something else begins. A person starts to face reality instead of only defending against it. They start to move, choose, act, and take responsibility from a different place.
The map also points to something important: it describes a predominant state, not every temporary emotion. A person may live mostly from courage, willingness, or love and still go through moments of fear, anger, or grief. The map does not describe every passing feeling. It is pointing to the emotional baseline from which someone most often perceives, decides, and lives.
I will go deeper into this in the nervous system and identity chapters of my book, but for now, I want to recognize the people for whom this is hard. Connecting to one’s emotional reality is not automatic. Past trauma can block that connection. Survival patterns can distort it. Some people become so disconnected from their emotional body that even naming what they feel becomes difficult. So, before speaking about rising on the map, there is already a first step, which is being able to identify your own inner state.
This matters because consciousness is lived through emotion. Emotion is energy in motion. During the writing of my book, I shared this idea with Tim Draper, and he came back with a beautiful definition rooted in the word itself. Emotion comes from the Latin emovere, which means to move out, to stir, or to agitate. The word already says it: emotion is movement. It is inner energy in motion.
Emotions are not random side effects. They are movements of energy shaping the way we perceive, think, respond, decide, relate, and create. Once you understand this, the map becomes more than a spiritual diagram. It becomes a practical tool for understanding where you are operating from and what kind of reality that state is likely to produce.
The real question is not only what you want to create. The deeper question is: from which frequency are you creating it?
A person can want success from fear and build a life full of pressure. Another person can want success from pride and build a life organized around image and comparison. Another can want success from love and build something coherent, generous, and alive. The desire may look similar from the outside, but the frequency behind it changes the reality that follows.
This is why I believe frequency classes are more powerful than social classes. Social class may describe part of your external position, but frequency class describes the internal state from which you meet life. And that internal state shapes what you see, what you choose, what you allow, what you reject, what you build, what you can receive and especially who you connect with.
This is one of the deeper ideas I explore in my upcoming book, The Fundable Identity. The book is about identity, consciousness, the nervous system, money, visibility, love, and the invisible patterns that shape what we allow ourselves to create and receive.
I am sharing this part before the book is fully out because I believe some ideas should reach people when they are ready to receive them. You can preorder the book here.
