We take social media for granted. As well as technology itself. Think about the fact that you can speak with anybody anywhere in the world at any time, directly. This is an incredible achievement. Divine, even. 'Science' can not possibly accelerate this fast
You need to get close with people. Earn their trust. Big leaps happen after learning of secrets. And nobody will tell you their secrets because of competition. Secrets uncovered to the wrong person come back to bite you. But learn of no secrets yourself and be left in the dust
Place massive bets not on tennis matches, but on people's goodwill. Buy them dinner. Provide them a contact. Give them a ride. Do them a favor. Make them a spontaneous gift. The right crowd will reciprocate and you will open doors to a life you never imagined you could be living
It takes less than a day to fix your mindset. And the shortcut is simple. Throw yourself into controlled chaos. The heat of the moment snaps you out of any nihilistic pathways and into the arms of loving presence. It's never as bad as it seems
The internet sold most of you a big fat lie. You would live your best life working a decent job and spending the rest of your time on your hobbies. Unlikely that you're cut out to be a transcendent trailblazer. Wondering why you're still not cracking the code. Wrong way all along
Icarus was warned not to fly too close to the Sun. Yet he still did. Life's most unimaginable utopia lies a millimeter away from burning your wings off. Hence the handle. That's how life has felt to me over the past year. And 'de' instead of 'of' is a nod to you know who
A man is made in his loneliness. When he's got company and living fast, he's either moving towards or already enjoying the fruits of his labor. High on life. But the seeds get planted in solitude. The company of yourself will unveil some of the hardest truths you've ever felt
Childhood - you, the weightless feather, being carried around in the wind. Not a lot you can do to control your destiny. Many a great misfortune or triumph is born right there. The dice roll of life. But when the feather lands and settles.. you now hold the cards to play the hand
Grasping divinity comes from letting life drift the raft wherever the wind blows. If you're authentic enough it'll take you to paradise. Then when looking back, all that occurred seems so unbelievably serendipitous and inexplicable that the only possible reasoning is God
It takes a crisis to know whether you have family. And not the blood relation kind. Whatever you think about your friends or loved ones will reveal its true identity when you're truly in a bad spot
Being high on life is a dangerous walkway between flying too close to the sun, and getting off on your own fumes. Fall too low life's probably too boring. Go to high and you'll find regret. And it's impossible to stay perfect
There are no genetic demigods. God gives everybody at least one inherent weakness, external or internal, that they have to cope for to prove themselves worthy of a complete existence
A lot of your so-called depression comes from forcefully persisting on certain things entering your life that have no meaning or place - allow whatever the soul drifts towards to do the talking and just lazer-focus on that
A core concept in the equation of life that is barely addressed is that whatever external forces you try to use for means of motivation, nothing outside of your direct experience and whatever scratches or scars you gather on your path will create real meaningful change
This Coldplay concert thing has shown me that people have zero comprehension of how many men and women actually cheat in their relationships. Way more than you'd think
@rombinzoncrusoe They're actually very easy to spot if you have half a braincell. Plus asians aren't most top notch guys' type anyways. The local russian girls that live there is where the juicyness lies
