I don’t believe in change.
In fact, the more self-aware I’ve become the more I see the same little kid inside of me– the one who struggled with the same tendencies and played with the same fiction.
The only difference is he didn’t try to change, make-believe was something he could do without judging himself.
That’s something I miss.
I believe in adaptation.
And how you adapt is actually very simple– go where you are called to go.
Each of us is drawn to different tools. For me it’s a specific author, for you it could be a speaker, entrepreneur, goo-roo, etc.
But who/ what you are drawn to is the key to everything in your life.
See, I used to think we could pretend and that would somehow trick our brains into living that life we always dreamed of. I read so many different ideas on this– all coming to the conclusion that leveraging a white lie to change your attitude is a good thing.
In other words– if we put ourselves in a playful state, even faking it, our life would naturally become playful.
The problem with that is it’s temporary.
My play is not your play. My play is not pretend.
We come to this world pre-designed. Our genetic makeups determine what we’re drawn to and what engages us– but we still move away from this?
Then we wonder why we feel empty.
Don’t change the wrong things.
Find what is play for you, and bring it into your life– no matter how small. That’s the only change we should engage in.
Don’t try to change yourself, change the things in your life that don’t align with you.
Your only task is to bring out that person who talks to you inside.
