The Future of Your Future
How much do you really think about your future? And what excites you the most about the possibilities?
Your Sacred Circle of People
But if you demonstrate that you really want and can handle the truth – and really do attract some people into this “sacred circle” of those around you – it will be one of the most rewarding experiences in your life.
Finding Purpose and Meaning in Your Life
I’ve spent the better part of 30 years exploring this path and the rewards it holds for us. So while I don’t have everything figured out, please allow me to share some of the lessons I’ve learned, in the pursuit of becoming a more enlightened person:
Making the Difficult Choices
This path isn’t for everyone. But I honestly believe it’s the only way we become the highest possible version of ourselves. The only way we move from success to significance; and live a life of purpose and meaning.
The Avoidance Path
In actuality, there are millions of people who have decided that enjoyment, distraction, and entertainment is enough. The rigors of introspection, critical thinking and self-examination are too much to endure. So they choose a life of continuous distraction.
Gangs, Religions and Cults
Whether you join MS-13, the Moonies, or Catholicism, you’re buying a turnkey franchise for what to think. Members can submerge their critical thinking ability and identity, choosing to defer to an institution they feel can safely handle those functions for them.
Searching for Meaning…
We need something bigger than ourselves to be a part of. The truth is, the vast majority of people are bored AF with their lives. That’s why they become seekers. It’s why they join religions and cults (although there isn’t much of a distinction between them), and gangs.
Living in Harmony and Inner Peace
You can’t be treated for peace and harmony. You have to be open to receiving it. And you have to decide you’re worthy of it, and then create it for yourself.
The Greatest Gift…
And perhaps the single greatest gift you can give anyone is raising their aspirations.
But If It Was Possible…
The reality is, when you believe something is impossible, you’re probably never even going to attempt it. But other people who believe the same thing is possible will attempt it. And often prove that it actually was possible. I would wager that ninety percent of the time when people say something is impossible – it’s actually just difficult, daunting, or scary to attempt.
