Nothing is yours, everything is borrowed from the universe, and you will always have to give it back…

So handle the day, appreciate what and who you have tonight, and rest in the thought that the future isn’t here yet.

Life is a gift, but it becomes a burden because you try to hold onto things that don’t belong to you.

You must let it all go and know, that what ever comes you will face with the same skills, adaptive mindset, and character that you have with everything…

Just a few quotes I’ve been pondering the past few months…

“We don’t create abundance. Abundance is always present. We create limitations.”

“You are far more powerful than you have been permitted to believe.”

“Life goes pretty fast, so live purposely slow.”

Consciousness collapses the wave function.

So what do you want to see happen?

Men are meant to be strong*
Women are meant to be beautiful*

*Neither of these attributes has to be physical.

But if you are a Man who provides no strength, or a Woman that provides no beauty. You are useless.

Fear is manipulation.

Only conscious beings are capable of manipulation. Therefore manipulation is not part of base reality (if there is one). Which means fear is not part of base reality.

Fear is a creation of your consciousness due to the influence of other manipulative consciousnesses. You are fearful because you have been told to be so. Whether it’s out of protectionism from a parent, or out of authoritarianism from an aspiring ruler.

If you are fearful you are being manipulated.

If you are fearless, are you then in total control? Do the fearless see the base reality? Can they drift with it? Can they flow effortlessly free of manipulation? 🌲🏔️ (This is why I feel time in nature alone is so powerful).

Nobody can ever be totally free of manipulation (as our individual realities are just mental creations of the manipulation in each of our lives, ie. our sources of information). But, if our goal is to seek base truth, then the more fearless you are… the closer you are to it.

Death, and the fear of it, is manipulation. Nobody ever fears their birth! Your newborn consciousness hasn’t yet been told to fear this eternal process.

The process is simply ongoing, forever changing, action/reaction, fear has no place in it.

And if we can create our reality, by influencing the process through selective observation and belief, then the fearless have unlimited ability to create whatever they want… ie. Minecraft in creative mode.

Or it’s all a simulation, in which case nothing really matters then anyway. So fear is pointless here too. We would be simply a process test bed for a higher intellect, and our fear is a programmed response.

I choose to live my life in creative mode, not survival.

Was going to send this to friends and family, but ultimately decided it’s best to just keep it for me. I just don’t feel they can really be happy for me. And as much as I would love to celebrate each of our successes together, I think the wiser move is to remain ever stoic.
👇

“Today I have accomplished a goal I have literally been working towards my entire adult life. It took significantly longer than my naive younger self had ever expected. Life and this ever crazier world we live in proved to be a far tougher opponent that I had foreseen. But finally all the hard work, reinvestment, and willingness to go all in over and over again has produced that achievement I have been striving for since I was an ambitious teenager!

I’m not going to say what it is, as each of us have different ambitions and goals, and what one might celebrate might not be important to others. But I do want to mark the occasion and express my happiness of this success with those I love!

I am so very blessed and for the first time in years I feel free. Excited and pumped to start the next chapter, the next book, to see what else is possible! Love you all and it is my sincere hope that your efforts towards your own goals are rewarded substantially!

Cheers 🥂”

If time doesn’t exist, then past present and future don’t exist.

Essentially anything that can happen to you, your packet of atoms, your wave function, will happen. All possible actions will yield all possible reactions.

Your brain, your consciousness, would then merely organize all this randomized but finite interaction data into what it deems a logical progression. The mind creates your reality from a cloud of consequences (action/reaction).

Observation collapses the wave function. Nothing exists, other than the random consequence cloud, without observation.

Therefore I create “my” reality via my observations. But by the fact that any “other person” is nothing more than my observation… I create “all” reality?

And if I create it all, then can I consciously choose what to observe? Which fugue state boxes to open? Or am I at the mercy of some concept of fate? Yes, my observations collapse the wave function, but I’m not in control of what I observe?

If that’s the case though, then I’m simply a running program… and literally nothing matters.

So I either control and organize reality and can consciously choose to be its architect. 🤔

Or I’m an NPC, a running program on a meaningless (at least to me) platform… 🤖
