One way to define evolve is "to develop into something more complex or advanced". When it comes to evolved people the seven characteristics below, while not meant to be complete, would seem to be indicative of someone who is advanced but I think for the most part they are simple and not complex in nature. This doesn't mean they are easy to achieve all the time. How many of these define you?
Gratitude - not just for someting given to you by someone but sincere gratitude for the little things most take for granted.
Give without expecting something in return - giving to family, community, charities not with the intent to get something in return but for the sake of giving.
Forgiveness - not judging others and not holding a grudge.
Celebrate life - many see life as one big mystery or problem to solve. Evolved people have the same issues to deal with but make celebration and appreciation the priority over problem solving at the expense of everything else.
Talking to yourself - I am guilty of this one. This referst to listening to yourself, not just talking. The emphasis is on listening to what is going on inside more than the "noise" outside.
Happiness - evolved people choose this over any alternatives. In other words they don't need drama and the latest crisis to feel something worthwhile.
Understand the value of downtime - evolved people use downtime or quiet time to pause and reflect, turn inward, meditate.
Becoming more aware of these traits can help us on our journey to becoming what it is we desire, especially if we want to evolve!
