There is no such thing as balance. You are always sacrificing something. You just have to be honest enough with yourself to become aware of it.

A new form of stress is when @thsottiaux announces a codex reset - and the clock is ticking...you have two hours and 50% usage left, but the new models are so efficient you are struggling to burn it. Cough *banked reset rule* cough

This is what a lot of my days look like right now, plus 8-12 hours of software engineering and steel building sales every single day. 7 days a week. Trying to live out a dream in real life is not always the prettiest thing but at the end of the day we have the power to be present in every moment and to enjoy each moment. I know all this extra hard work is going to seemingly shift quickly at some point and all I will have is the memories of simpler times - that felt crazy at the time. instagram.com/reel/Dd9VGBHBb…

The next greatest version of yourself emerges from coming into contact with earlier versions of yourself and showing up as that person that you never had when you were in their shoes.

When you die, the only baggage you are allowed to bring is your love for God. Let that information dictate your priorities today.

Toxic friends and family will be waiting for the opportunity to show you why are they justified in treating you poorly. You owe it to yourself to remove their opportunity to do so. Only losers mistreat people that have never shown them anything but love.

The quickest way to generate competence is always understanding. I am always asking why until it can't be asked anymore. The earlier you are willing to take part in this process when introduced to a new thing, the quicker you conquer the thing.

You'll never be able to have an organic relationship with somebody whose deepest underlying sentiment is to get something from you.

Who will you be when you finish being who you think you are?

My commitment is to truth, not to consistency. - Gandhi

Hot take: Unless you can sit down and clear your mind without any distractions in meditation for a couple of hours a day, everything you do and get is simply a form of subjective reality. There's no in-between. You are feeding your ego and it convinces you otherwise. It's not so straightforward, though, because next, once that becomes a thing, you must purge that thing only to find your way back to the thing. Such is life

The game is not to lay your 'trip' down on anyone else. Even the people we look up to are trapped in a lower idea of themselves. That is what they present to the world - who they wish to be seen as. As long as you always need to identify with a particular version of yourself to engage with the day or the world, you are not truly being yourself. The truth is you are everything and nothing all at once so to identify as anything other than everything is a trap that will never lead you to your greatest potential. Then the question is: How do we become so one-sided with potential? The answer is because every time we do anything, our ego tells us, "This is who we are," and then people tell us, "Oh, that is who you are." The game is always remembering who you actually are - In essence the toggle between the realization of an identity and the awareness of a greater being never ends. This is the way.

“Presence is when you're no longer waiting for the next moment, believing that the next moment will be more fulfilling than this one.” ~ Eckhart Tolle
