RICK URBANSKI

Went from an utterly lost 20-year-old to an exceptionally good life – through rationality, philosophy, and self-education. Sharing what worked for me.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

It is solved by walking.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@thenellvh Good perspective. Close to my approach. Calmness over everything.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

“You should have children!”
”You should travel the world!”
”You should build a business!”

Ignore all that.

The only thing you should do is
consistently listen to your inner voice, understand your unique desires and match them with how the world works.

Most people hand their life plan over to their favorite influencer, their parents and to what the world is telling them to do, drifting aimlessly into a miserable, average life.

Plan your own life. Single player game.

@alexandreforget My friend, I think you misunderstood my message. I am a father, and love it. But my point is that these decisions should not come from a place of obedience to god, society or social media – but from listening to oneself.

Andrii captured my message well:

Nice one! And what you're saying doesn't mean that you shouldn't have children or travel the world or build a business, but rather that you should align yourself with your inner self.

Not listening to my inner self led me to a depression and OCD at some point. It took a while to even start to hear my inner voice and then understand what I want, like, am attracted to, etc. And 7 years later, I feel much much better.

@AndriisLab Andrii, you write with clarity - makes it obvious that you truly walked the path. You get what I tried to convey. Thank you.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@JackAMAustin With obvious consequences.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@askcodi nice continuation of the analogy, thanks for the chuckle

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@its_tianyi Well worded.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@Zaytion_ Its less about listening to your "inner voice" and more about having a in-depth honest conversation with yourself – for long durations.

Long walks alone, sitting in silence, 10 sheets of paper. Undistracted.

Make that a habit, for a few months.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@skekici Right on. You get it.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@Vi6it Love it. Thanks for sharing @anuatluru 's post. Beautifully articulated.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@devfaizanali Modern life is very good at keeping you distracted and busy enough to not figure such things out.

Good on you for figuring it out at all.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@HabitsofMan We are speaking the same language, my man. Love it.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@mxacod This is the way.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@portiachen25347 Nailed it. Well worded.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@Eduard_Seb I appreciate you, Eduard.

Especially with semi-viral tweets like this, I realize again and again, that I care much more for familiar faces of likeminded ones than for big numbers or dollars.

Hope you are doing well in life.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@Nintenweirdo Beautiful. One of the few that is actually doing the work.

Layers upon layers to peel.

Very much worth it, in my experience.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@thedanielaros At the end of the day, its that simple.

Joy as the universal north star.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@TraumaInformd Very good point. Layers upon layers.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@RandallDeaton8 Right on. Pick your price.

Can't have it all, at the same time, in full scope.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@TheHPHackers Beautifully articulated.

[RICK URBANSKI @rickurbanski]

@ourhiddenselves Right on. Quite similar for me. Thousands of walks alone cured me.

Individuate or dissolve. 👽
