This could make for a very long, very personal post, but nah! We keeping it short.
Happiness requires only one thing; You need well-organized thoughts.
Does that sound lame? Lemme break it down: You can have everything, and I know people who have everything – still miserable cunts. And there are people with nothing with wider smiles than anyone.
Happiness is concepts. It’s having higher ideals that gradually and indomitably manifest themselves in this cruel world through your own actions. No matter how bad things are, you don’t feel despair when you know you are already doing the realistic maximum to right wrongs and make things better. Because when you’re maxed out, you’re inspiring others to pick up the shovel and start hacking at the bullshit.
Where most people go wrong is in attribution of blame. They feel like the victim for not having the life they want, usually having made bad decisions that were influenced by trauma, which was caused by others. When you have been a genuine helpless victim of malevolence at some point in your life, this muddies the attribution of blame for why you don’t have what you feel you deserve.
We are very much demon-possessed creatures when trauma is involved. Because trauma develops a mind of its own and controls you on moments of weakness, just like a puppet master. The demon defends you from situations that could hurt you. Because it remembers everything. It runs away from relationships, it runs away from parties, from dates, from opportunities. Because there’s always the chance.
Your shadow is not an enemy. It’s your authentic self, all the lies burnt off your skin.
Get to know your demon. Make friends with him. Make peace. And on this foundation of peace, you can begin to collaborate. Then, instead of being torn in multiple directions, tormented by indecisive emotions and fears, wishing this and that which you can’t have, you walk hand-in-hand with him on one path.
Organized thoughts are only possible if you have very clear attribution of blame. Happiness is only possible if you have nobody to blame for how your life turned out.
When you’re living your truth, there is no victimhood. There is agency.
Next you will read how to have passion in your life.
