Moving the Goal Posts Back to Basics
Manage episode 399223511 series 3400908
This episode is about going back to basics – like, elementary basics. Things don’t seem to sink in until the nexus of the thought is made as plainly as possible for people to get it. Nothing in adulthood makes sense, so we need to view it from untainted eyes and minds. As I like to say, “life is an ouroboros.” Sometimes, we need to view the world as simply as possible to understand how it works, how it moves the people in it, on down to what is going on at-present in your own life. It doesn’t have to be as big an ask as the single formula to creating the one-pill cure for cancer with zero side effects. It’s simply just asking self-awareness (no longer seeing ourselves as ‘victims’ in every negative situation; instead, seeing it from, “what did I do in this situation to cause or exacerbate the problem?”) and understanding (seeing how we affect our own present-tense and the present-future-tense of others, while working to reverse events/things of the past so you can move fluidly, made of love and peace, through this universe.).
We look to everything to do the hard work for us, or we do nothing at all. This is why there are so many traumatized people in this world still reeling from the traumatized situation(s); or, Ozempic butt for those using it for weight loss. The first thing we need to do in our healing process is ‘want’ to heal. Surprisingly, people who constantly say they need to heal don’t actually want to. It vividly shows in their actions. A good example is when a person has developed a bad habit to deal with the trauma but don’t want to let the habit go. When one truly wants to heal, it will require relinquishing all the actions/people/things that are band-aids or otherwise things that serve to protect us from the trauma and emotions that come from reliving it, even if for a short moment. We must acknowledge and embrace the situation for what it is. We must be open and vulnerable with ourselves to ourselves during the process. And, above all else, we must be resolute in our healing process. It’s a disservice to half ass it. It’s exactly like doing nothing at all. We must face and we must release.
We set our goal posts so close yet so far. It doesn’t help us to take the easy way out having a goal post that’s only inches away, yet it’s also unproductive to aim for a goal post across town on another field. We have to test ourselves but not set ourselves up for failure, adding more obstacles and other shit to our field that stands between us and the target.
We need to always carry high standards. Big diff between high standards and arrogance. One is not the same as the other. When we carry high standards in the right way, people will be forced to come correct when they approach you. A family member who is trying to borrow money better be coming with a business proposition, not to get a hit, bottle, or anything on sale before they sell out. Most times, this will also elevate those in your square who have even lower standards. This is akin to part of the idea of tangibly helping another rise, with the other part showing another how to do it. In this, we create a chain reaction to creating our own universe and moving through and with others in our galaxies. We must be stars so others can be suns, with each star shining brighter than
