There is an enormous amount of fluff calling people’s shots these days. When things are reduced to the emotions they cause and accredited for values which matter, life becomes much more simple and straightforward. We get messed up being afraid of things which almost happened and concerned for what everyone else says is important, they’re so much louder than us. But at the center of things is what we hear and deeper still controlling that, is what we believe is important. There is nowhere and nothing about the highest state of feeling you need when it comes to organizing life. Acting a fool to the best you, has no excuses to circumstance, diction, or disaster because we cannot escape ourselves and we should never try. Celebrate who you are and how you feel about you by taking the best action, now.
First isolate the current biggest emotional focuses and energy investments in your life. Right now, what is most important and what sucks the most? Reduce these down to how you feel about yourself. In everything, there is an action and feeling involved. Take the action aside and look at how you feel. A great man and a horrible sad man can do the same actions. Key to being real to yourself is keeping yourself that great person and not letting the work make you feel lesser or breaking you into less than you are. The world needs the best you and you deserve the highest you. There is so much more to be done once that being is ignited. So answer realistically and with that high mind as pep, what is most strongly affecting you and what actions are you investing the most energy in? These are not you until you define yourself as them and how you define yourself determines everything else.
Prestige, Maslows hierarchies of needs, impressing people, overcoming fears, resentments, life-scope expectations, stuff you own, social should-by-nows are all examples of what a person can judge themselves on. It is important to have an accurate perception of yourself and that requires being critical… but making fluff judgements is a waste of life. Why are any of these things important? The action relates to the feeling and the action matters because one gives it worth. Integrity is staying true to yourself and all any of these things boil down to is how you judge yourself. Other opinions, spectrums of worth, criteria of happiness and magnitude only matter because a person says to themselves,”yes, this is important”. Your emotional state matters only due to your opinion of yourself. Don’t bullshit around that and clear out fluff holding down your god-given power and importance.
Who do you really want to be and what does it feel like to be that person? This center sense drives everything else. Eliminate what you’re afraid of and angry at, admit it so you can let it go. Examine what you value without anyone else’s opinion or the glamour and fuck the prestige. If you had the perfect relationship, who would you be? How would that feel? If you had the coolest job in the world, how would you feel? If you could do all the most amazing feats you value the most, how would you feel? Ask more, go one until you have maybe even forgotten a couple. This activity requires looking at what is holding you back and that you’re obsessing over then letting it be unimportant even though it may be fucking everything up right today. This is asking how’d you feel if you had it all perfect then taking that as a new center, just sit and breath on the feeling for twenty minutes. This is the realest you, outside the whats, wheres, hows, clothes, paychecks, and kick-flips. It can only be attained by admitting the faults you hold so you may answer the desires deeper.
Take onto consideration how much wanting and believing in something makes it true. The best sports athletes aren’t the strongest, fastest, smartest, or biggest but the ones who want it the most. Drive is more important than talent, this is why competition is good. The Russians and the US trying to get to outspace, then the moon, and now we’re all trying to live on Mars first is going great because we are competing. But to get lost in that competition is because one cares too much about the other people and invests less in their own drive. How strongly, how big, how infinite your belief in a thing makes it that powerful. So believe in this worth of yours and the feelings you know you deserve. There is no limit to your imagination except you stopping yourself.
Love yourself and question a path. There is a hollow life in stroking the ego then sitting on your hands. This is not a meditation to masturbate. The point is to direct yourself and let yourself be how and who you truly desire. That feeling is instantly available, the life the person needs and wants takes work and time. Idealizing this moment and feeling is wrong, make it normal, make it the law to yourself. Then move with it, make it real by acting it out. Don’t let the baby-steps hold you back, that is ego toxicity. As long as it is a move in the right direction, it’s progress and better than nothing. Pride is an appreciation, not a defense. Nobody knows you for your feelings or thoughts, the world knows you for what you show and do. Take this feeling as a pen and your life as the tale it tells. The trick is feeling the best and doing the simple, the mundane, and the stupid but keeping that center. The hard part is when people look at you like you’re crazy, the harder part is when they act hurt or angry because you don’t.
Allow yourself instant access to these emotions and the sense which block an instant release. All that holds a person back at this essential level is only in existence because a person creates and maintains it. The next step is always totally free. Let yourself be your perfect self at all times. This is not a pride to be defended but shown off.
