Scrambled cities: If you're not gonna do the work(on your soul), then you might as well work til you die

 There are two tiers in normal life. Those who are survive and those who thrive.  But nothing is a mistake in life: Nothing comes by chance. You have to prepare for it.  If you thought life was about making money and beating out the Jones's, you've lost already.  Life is: Desire for connection. All unhealthy competition is isolating. We live in an isolated-enough world already. This connection comes from a surprising place: Self-acceptance. A lot of us need to go back to the classroom. A lot of us need to take a silent breather and check in with what we need. This takes serious work. It's the real work. It relies on respect for others and self-respect.  A lot of people in the self-help community try to push the self aside: Manning up is the only side of it they see. But there are certain non-negotiables in this life. Certain things we can't cheat ourselves out of. We are not a piece of meat being acted on.    However, this is where God comes in. Some o...

Yeah... but

We're involved in a "yeah... but" culture. Have you ever seen  real purity in your life? 

Purity of an idea, a self-standing element of action or thought? Or has it just been continuallywatered down and watered down some more?

It's the intellectual man's preserve to water down. It's the man of truth who senses a thing far off in the soul and who can't quite grasp it before he says it. 

His eyes are not clouded by the cataracts of others' institutionalized thinking. 

We can always imagine reasons that we shouldn't do a thing. That parts simple. Don't approach the woman because she's a little bit too sexy for you. Don't talk to your boss about this subject because carefulness is the best approach. 

There is place for primary colors.  A place for things that don't have to do with the here and now. Things that exist only as an ideal. 

We know this or the saying "Just Do It" wouldn't have caught on. 

I hope you will.
