In order to become a better person, you must first realize how horrible you really are. Not in the dramatic sense, but in the quiet ways you sabotage yourself, repeat unhealthy patterns, hurt people who care about you, or tolerate what wounds you. You cannot grow if you keep pretending you're innocent in the story you've created.
It’s a good day to look nice, smell good, go outside and enjoy the rights and freedoms afforded to you by living in this beautiful country. It’s what Mandela would’ve wanted.
You need boredom. It calms the mind. Start by going on walks without music. No stimulation. No distractions. Just you and your free flowing thoughts. You’ll start having ideas once again. You’ll start developing an extreme sense of clarity. The kind of clarity that will shift you into the next stage of your life. All by simply being bored.
