The Door Is Open. Now Walk
I can only show you the door
Even open it for you
But you have to go in
I am simply a guide
Nothing more
I believe in you more than you do
I don’t know your unique skills and attributes
But I know you can unleash them upon the world
Fear, apathy, depression, the demons hold you back
Instead of sprinting into the door before I even open it
You are still hesitant
You worry about money
Women
Status
What your family and friends will think
It’s natural of course
The tribe always worried about it’s kin
What they would think or do
It is for survival
Now in the modern day you have to worry about what you would think
Not your boss, your mom, your sibling
Make some money on the side until you have enough to quit
Leave the country if you have to since everywhere else you can live like a king
Meet a woman to take with you wherever you go
None of this is supposed to happen overnight
Of course there are some cases where it will
I know plenty of people with enough saved up who just won’t do something different
“This gets old. Tiring. I don’t want to be a banker. Life is more than drinking and partying.” Then back to it that night at the earliest
Well trained hamsters if you ask me
So much here to do
The best is usually for free
Visit the beach
A mountain
Nature is your friend
Awaken thyself more
Write things down
Write down the three thoughts that trap you the most
Then write the opposite of each one
Notice everything to break out of the mental prison you are in
It has been hardwired into you since birth
The system is all messed up now
At one point, you could just make a single income and have a house 2 car garage and 2 kids and be perfectly happy
Now you can barely afford a nice apartment
Tough times indeed
Well what are you going to do about it?
Crawl around in the old system?
Complain about it with Jake from marketing?
Drink your coffee that tastes days old while you fat loser boss tells you about 10 meetings you have to attend
Have you forgotten why you are here?
It’s to be free
Fight for your freedom
In a bad relationship
Break up
Bad job
Quit
These things aren’t actually hard
You just think they are
You need to take more risks
Way more
Like you did as a child
You also laughed more back then didn’t you?
Until the crushing debt, sexless relationship, and the dread took over
Just because some of you don’t just go sit at the bar drinking Piss Lite while watching the game, doesn’t mean your awake
You are just more awake then the rest
I’m only at an 8 -9 out of 10 on that scale
Some people looked like they were hatched from an egg
My parents were both out of the box
I saw everyone else in the box
Even joined them at some points
Was like this box sucks and burned it down
Pissed people off
Others loved me
IDGAF what they all think
They aren’t here
They aren’t alive
I’m sure if you are reading this you have awoken from them mud and are looking around
Escaped the first cave at least
That’s a great start
Now what will you do?
Write one bold action you’re going to take this week
No matter how small
Commit to it
For me I thought I could just stop smoking weed and it would all fall into place
In some ways it did
In others it didn’t
I got myself
Myself was damaged, not broken
I’ve had to sit with the thoughts and stillness that I avoided for so long
Now I can begin reintroducing new adventures back in
It’s like when you fast and you start with small foods
I can revisit old things too which will look completely different
When I go the old demons may appear but they poke at me for a bit but my armor has grown more resilient
So has my mind
I know all my thoughts aren’t true
My fantasies never come the way I think they will
Day dreaming less
Doing more
Sometimes doing nothing at all is more
That’s when the inventions are made
You were made to discover
Like Newton did gravity
Like Columbus did America
You were meant to create
Like Michelangelo
You were meant to love
Like Casanova
You weren’t built to consume nonsense on social media
Tik tok is rotting your brain
IG
FB
X
If you aren’t using them for a specific reason
Delete them now
I never watch the news yet get told about all the important stuff happening
Just enough news
It’s perfect
My mind isn’t overwhelmed with the world
Because I don’t hear about it
Just give me a few headlines a week
I’ll pray for them
Then I will move on
I won’t get lost in women, nights out, drugs, drinking, vacations, nights in
Nothing will get in my way
Not even myself anymore
I’ve reset my brain
I’ve put in boundaries for myself and others
You could inject with with oxymorphine
And I would be fine tomorrow
I would just enjoy the drug like I enjoy writing this
If I feel lost, confused, or irritated
I take some time to myself for an hour or so
Then I feel the best I’ve felt all day after
See I never wanted to feel “bad”
I wanted to just feel good all the time
That makes sense
But I didn’t know if you just waited a bit
The bad goes away and you feel amazing
Instead, I would run from it then feel awful for days, weeks at a time
But I had no clue
The feelings are your true guide
If you feel constant dread, apathy, depression, anxiety
Then you must change
That is simply demonic energy and a low vibe state
Humans weren’t meant to live that way
Now more do than ever before
It becomes familiar and spreads like a cancer
Your brain releases dopamine every time you play victim to your circumstance
It’s how you just barely survive
None of this is new info
But our brains fall back into old patterns
Mine can be rage and anxiety
Those two have drastically gone down that sometimes I don’t recognize me at all
I say this must be my true self
I used to spiral around certain emotions just to feel something
Now I can pump my own state with doing shit just like this
Sometimes it’s easier than other times
I won’t give up because going back to the void simply make me ill
I don’t resonate or identify with it
I only identify with the present
With fun
With creation
With joy
With life
Everything else is cut off
I’ll add certain things back in
There is a time and a place for everything
If you do anything daily it becomes boring
Or if it’s like exercise it becomes discipline
Either switch the exercises up
Or enjoy one so much you can do it everyday for the rest of your life
Learn to enjoy chores
The mundane
The quiet
Learn to enjoy the calm chaos
Not the crazy one
Don’t let the screens, people, events, or drugs make you overstimulated
You will fry your body and brain
Some never come back
Some have been sober for years and still aren’t even close to any level of awareness
It is almost scary how few people are even awake yet aware
But don’t worry about them
The tech will keep them in line
The trump bucks
The drugs
The distractions
They are no more than bugs
Usually less
Bugs don’t have critical thinking
While we do
So if you critically think like a bug
You are actually less than a bug
What do you do with bugs?
Poison them
Smack them
That is what the system is doing to everyone
Slowly to make them sick
To rely more on the system
Being fat is fine
Don’t worry about exercise
Here take these drugs to fix yourself
Quick fixes
It’s demonic
They employ the 7 deadly sins daily on everyone
Once you are more aware, then you don’t have to worry about it at all
I could drink a jar of canola oil, get 1 hour of sleep, take 7 meds and still function better than most
That’s how you know you are the one
The one to beat the system
To make it
Optimizing is fine when you are already optimized
Give yourself a boost
Your daily caffeine does nothing
My daily valium just keeps me stable
Until I can reduce it to nothing or small amounts
Our brains are just used to it
Unfortunately for me if I don’t take it I can have seizures
You can quit weed and coffee cold turkey
I’ve quit many drugs cold turkey
This one has to be reduced over years
Been reducing it for years
It is what it is
All I know is that anything is possible
I was dealt one of the best hands in life and almost squandered the whole thing
If you were born here you were dealt the best hand too
My mom clawed her way from Africa all the way to the top
It was hard as shit
I won’t experience anything like that
Too bad
I thought all this was hard
It was of course
But nothing like that
And that’s okay
We all have different prisons we built
What tools will you use to escape?
Until next time,
