Life demands rituals and sacrifices.
The ritual of waking up every day and laboring toward your goals. The sacrifice of your time, your body, your comfort, or whatever else you’re willing to offer.
That price must be paid.
Which is why you can’t ride another man’s name, fame, or desires for his money and expect it to change your life.
You gave nothing to the gods.
Your only rituals are grifting, scamming, pretending, and scheming. But you’ve sacrificed nothing. So all you’re ever met with is failure, ridicule, and disrespect.
You want it easy. You want it quick. Everyone else spent years in the trenches earning what they have, but you think you can capitalize on the sacrifices of others.
It doesn’t work like that, my guy.
You’re a retard who never seems to learn.
As a child, I never fully understood the saying, “Short cut draws blood.” Clearly, you don’t understand it either.
You’re going to pay your dues one way or another. Or you’re going to die in poverty, still convinced the next person is going to change your life while you leech off whoever crosses your path.
“One man can do this for me. Another man can do that for me.”
Meanwhile, you can’t do anything beneficial for anyone.
Bro, you’re not getting ahead in life. You’ve been chasing your tail because you’re no different from a gold digging chick who sets her sights on men to grift off.
Life is a tradeoff, but the only thing you’ve traded away is your dignity.
And when you offer up your dignity, you’re cursing yourself.
Life wants you to keep your dignity and your self respect because once you trade those away, it hands you humiliation and mockery in exchange.
You’re not fooling anyone because you can’t fool the process. You can’t circumvent the rules. You’re just making a fool of yourself.
Learn life.
The fast, easy way invariably ends up being the hard way in the end.
If it’s being done the right way, it will be long and arduous at times but the end result will be long lasting.
Speed is not the way.
Right and deliberate win every time.
The one thing I do not do, is stress. Not about life. Not about people. Not about the world ending. I just stay in my magical hum and let the world do what it does.
We create our own destiny through our own actions.
Most of life is largely controllable as there’s a rule book to how we live and interact with others.
Do good and you shall reap what you sow.
Life is merely a lengthy series of actions and consequences.
Often, luck is a state of mind.
With a good attitude, everything becomes an opportunity, everything becomes a blessing.
Through your choice of perception, you invite more luck into your life.
External show of religiosity is meaningless.
The only meaningful thing is that which resides in the heart and how much good you put out into the world.
Everyone is religious in name but only few are spiritual.
Religion is your relationship with an organized community.
Spirituality is your relationship with God and existing in a state of love and practice of all that is good, just, upright and moral.
So many religions. Not much spirituality.
You can don the mask of religion but unless your heart and actions are of God, it's useless.
Spirituality is what connects you to God and governs your heart and practices.
We are all born with a "God Gene". That gene isn't attached to any religion. It's our intrinsic knowing of a Superior Being.
When you speak of spirituality to the unlearned, it's within their limited understanding to ascribe and reduce it to some New Age fad or astrology, when in fact, spirituality predates all religions.
We are all just religious as a costume if we lack spirituality.
Technically nothing in life is random.
Causes and effects everywhere.
But for a lot of things, we don't have complete data.
So, things appear random.
Statistical chance is inherently generated by acknowledging what you don't know.
After all is said and done, life is and remains a matter of perspective.
It is your responsibility to train your mind to see something good in every situation.
