Boredom is a sign that you likely chose right.
Choosing to make something more important than your temporal pleasure.
Boredom is the hidden price tag that comes with purpose & meaning.
We stand and stare at a body of water. Why?
It makes us feel at peace with ALL of who we are.
ALL of what we have done, thought, believed, felt & said.
Returning to essence requires INTEGRATION, not performance hacks.
Wisdom is seductive. It brings you this feeling of peace that can easily put you to sleep. Be at rest from within, but don’t fall asleep @ the wheel. Before buying into someone's reputation, ask yourself: Did they earn their place at t/top, or did their status earn your belief?
Danger is safe for you when you pause and assess instead of rushing straight in. Pausing and assessing allows you to not fall prey to being blinded by wisdom.
I am not chasing discomfort, and I am not chasing clarity in any way. Most importantly, I am especially careful not to pursue clarity because true clarity isn’t something you achieve; it's something you receive.
Our most radical changes in perspective often happen at the tail end of our worst moments.
It’s only when we feel intense pain that we’re willing to look at our values and question why they seem to be failing us.
The gift of free will is that in this life we can choose to be good or we can choose to be bad. We can choose what standards to hold ourselves to and what we will regard as important, honorable, and admirable. The choices we make in that regard determine whether we will experience peace or not.
