I wish more people knew the extent to which their minds can create their realities – most people have heard many times that perception is everything. However, I think where people (and myself) have had trouble with this is they are still too attached to perceptions that are influencing them from external sources. Whether that be emotions they experience, society’s expectations or their parents’ expectations, or just what they’ve come to understand people and life as.
There is so much that we can know intellectually, but as in many things, it comes down to how we use that information. Life is difficult; it is full of people who have lost their minds and souls, full of businesses and governments that don’t have you in their best interest. Business often rules all, not humanity. Everything can be cold, harsh, and it can feel like a big letdown from what we thought life should be like.
If we choose to though, we truly can turn every negative thought or perception into something positive or productive and beneficial.
Our minds are truly the gateway to a heaven on earth.
But it takes practice. Daily practice in detaching yourself from what is, and realizing that just because it IS doesn’t mean it should be, or will forever be.
The world can be in ruin, but you don’t have to be. You can be free.
Our minds are the gateway that will take us from this world to the next. The earth and all its people as it is now are a temporary thing, but our minds are ethereal, able to transform, able to create anything.
You just have to put in the effort, and don’t settle for less.
“The world can be in ruin, but you don’t have to be. You can be free.”
I really like that statement. I often suspect that freedom is without perception, but I have yet to verify that for myself. It is very difficult to keep this still.
What is the big design project? Is it a secret? 🙂
(We have never met btw).
Well verifying it definitely takes consistent practice. We’ve spent so much of our lives living within the framework of our minds and there are tons of obstacles in conquering the mind and getting to a place of clarity. And for a person to even desire to do so usually requires pretty good intuition, something that can sense that there’s something bigger than what’s going on in their minds and pulls them toward that direction.
The design project is just a huge user interface redesign of some software. Should be fun. No programming involved in this one so I’ll just be focusing purely on design, but there’s a lot to be done. 🙂
