Forget What You Think You Know

I didn’t know shit back then, and I plan on knowing even less moving forward.

Life doesn’t reward struggle.

Before you ready your comebacks, let me provide you some context.

Ever notice how the harder you try to fall asleep, the zombier you become? Or when you just “have to do something” you usually don’t.

That’s what I mean… the attitude of struggle is a pathetic one.

Do you have to work hard to hit your goals? Probably. But as soon as you do the “I’m so serious” thing and lose the play, it all becomes pointless.

Look, I’m writing this post pretty early– so if this turns into some 2am stoner talk, forgive me.

But the thing that instantly makes me a happier person who is excited about life– is the realization that everything that makes up my world is just perspective (change what you see and change your entire life).

What in the wiring of the human brain makes us think we understand the world?

We all went from filling diapers to khakis and somehow that’s given us all we need to know automatically… because we’ve been around our small familiar block.

You don’t know anything, and that’s the best reminder.

Our attitude is a habit. Our routines, how we approach environments, how we talk to people, sure theres some DNA in there, but for the most part it’s just a habit.

And we don’t think to change it because it’s so close to us.

I’m not telling you to do anything, because theres nothing to do. Just try to forget– if you can let go of your buttoned up, know-it-all approach to the world, you’ll be fluid enough for something new.

You’ll find a whole new life waiting for you.
