@PeacefulFathers This is you returning to Self.

Allow your body to slip silently into the tides... let the fish eat and return your essence into nature.

[EB @EricBort_]

I've been a seeker of peace for a long while - as an inadvertent defense mechanism... soothing my ego - an escape hatch of sorts.

When what I actually need - is freedom. Freedom from self imposed restraints - found through the expression of truth (translating to love).

[EB @EricBort_]

In some very interesting ways... the journey of my growth has been about compensating...

Like lying on a rock, and instead of moving the rock, building up a thicker callus so I don't feel the rock as much...

The result - losing even more of myself in the process.

[EB @EricBort_]

What's amazing with growth though - is that I can hold that lesson in my heart, learn from it - and let go the need to compensate any more.

The real path is truth - not to control an outcome or harm others, but to full accept & love my Self.

[EB @EricBort_]

Truth is not a tactic - it's a stance.

Truth is not a means to an end to 'get' a result - any sense of 'this for that' is an assumption that we control the future... which creates anxiety and disappointment.

Truth is our own internal light, embracing our true Self.

@incalstory this blew my mind... absolutely stunning short.

[EB @EricBort_]

My Actions:
My response in the present moment. I can act in alignment with my values, or out of reaction. Action doesn’t always mean doing… sometimes it means choosing calm, restraint or disengagement to gain context.

[EB @EricBort_]

Digging into the concept of control.
I can control:

My Attention:
Where I place my awareness.
I can’t always control my thoughts, but I can choose which ones I attend to, amplify, or let pass. What I give my attention to creates my reality.

[EB @EricBort_]

My Intention:
The orientation of my inner Self. Am I open or closed? Will I be defensive or curious? Loving or shut down? I get to choose the tone of my presence… even (especially) in chaos. It’s not about what ‘happens to us’ it’s about how we handle it.

[EB @EricBort_]

The moment speaking your truth feels like a threat, you’ve abandoned yourself to comfort.

You don’t need to be a dick about it - and, you can say what you mean. If all it took was a single wrong word to ruin a relationship - did you really have a relationship to begin with?

[EB @EricBort_]

I used to grasp for peace as a reaction to circumstance, what if it became an unchangeable frequency I emit?

Not defense or offense... simply a presence to hold.

When we truly begin to see ourselves, experiencing true peace goes from possibility to reality.

[EB @EricBort_]

Peace isn’t passive.

It’s not hiding. It’s not avoidance. It’s not needing silence.

It’s a stance. Like love. Like confidence. It doesn’t collapse when someone yells. It doesn’t vanish when the couch is covered in laundry. It holds - it emanates from within.

[EB @EricBort_]

@DonHickmanLFG It is time…

[EB @EricBort_]

@JoshuaLisec Congrats!

[EB @EricBort_]

@art_pleb Time for a comeback - hit em while they’re weak!

[EB @EricBort_]

@mitchdmoore It could go down -or- up though…

[EB @EricBort_]

@landforce @JordanRogers26 Taking this approach to heart… went from never making a vid to having 40 shorts scheduled on all socials a month out - 3 weeks in since we started, goal is to show up every day and do the thing.

[EB @EricBort_]

@Ashcryptoreal The perfect bounce

[EB @EricBort_]

@SaasSavant A man needs to build. What you been up to? Nailed down your niche?

[EB @EricBort_]

Self-awareness isn't the end goal - it's where the real work begins.

I used to bury, judge and avoid my emotion around uncomfortable truths.

Now I probe, assess, question and seek, without judgment.

What's the hardest truth you've learned about yourself that helped you grow?
