Improving your lifestyle according to motivational speakers- a false approach and a waste of time!
You might have clicked on this article thinking that today you’re going to absorb some real nuggets of wisdom and knowledge that'll propel you in a positive direction because that is all I ever needed to extricate yourself from this pathetic existence.
Some articles will give you a little introduction as to how you've been wasting your life and why you should be listening to them- the realest most flawless specimens on this planet and cue in some quick word transitions, cool fonts and graphic overlays that have no connection to real life.
Before giving you the five points which you probably heard five thousand times in your life already but somehow reading it from this article is gonna make that big change, watch out.
After reducing you to a bedazzled monkey sitting at a circus clapping their hands, they'll probably ask you to check out their nine-part intensive course or buy one of their 50 books. It's an insult!
That's what it is, it's an insult to a human being to be treated like an automaton that could just take a piece of software download it and install it in his brain and voila he's updated with the new version that will make him a better human being as if that is all it takes to change one's life.
Everything is a circus!
Just look around you, nobody is really serious about anything, just flapping their arms and banging their heads but we all get sucked into it. I know I’ve done the same at some point and will be the first to raise my hand if need be.
I'm not directing any of this at people who deal with the mechanics of things. More power to them. I'm strictly talking about these self-proclaimed gurus and mentors on the internet, these disingenuous and pompous charlatans who claim that the only thing holding you the reader back from becoming a true Olympian and a beacon of excellence is consuming their content and buying their content word for word until you’ve consumed it all.
How arrogant, desperate and dishonest does a person need to be to claim that they can improve someone else's life.
To all these gurus, have you really reached the pinnacle of human excellence, have you resolved every issue in your personal life, has everyone in your immediate influence absolve themselves of all pain and misery?
To anyone reading this right now it's all a complete scam.
These three-step guides and the four ways of this, and the seven mantras, it's a big waste of time but please don't take my word for it. Experience it for yourself just like I did.
It's unimaginable how people still pay heed to these quacks wasting precious time on feel-good measures, aimless practices and doing positive things which lead to nothing. It's all a shell game, a bunch of sheep leading the sheep, and no one is honest anymore.
If I told you that all it took was for you to do 30 push-ups and you'd have a million dollars in your pocket, how many would even go through with that? Like three out of a 50, and those three clowns when they do the 30 push-ups and not receive the million dollars what's the first thing that they're going to do?
They're going to come back to me while saying ‘hey you told us to do the 30 push-ups, we did them, now where's the million dollars and then I'll plaster them with some other nonsense and send them out on another goose chase.
Most human beings are like those 4 who didn't go through with the push-ups because why should they? If they have any semblance of brain cells, they will inadvertently understand that doing push-ups is not going to bring them a million dollars, so they clearly have the ability to discern but then they go back to guru number two and the circus continues.
This is why I have a complete distaste for society because I witnessed this dumb mastery everywhere. People running around like headless chickens from point A to point B swimming in the comfort of effort and action and feeling like they're doing something to kill their time and improve.
Where has any of it even gotten you?
You want to become a chef but you're busy meditating five hours a day because it's supposed to be good for you, because your friend told you so. What a clown world!
The answer is nothing.
Nothing will ever improve your life unless you reach the cusp of inexorable desperation of not being able to continue living the way you have for another moment of your life till then there is nothing that I or any guru or the president or buddha or Jesus can say that would change you. It’s all entertainment.
Everything we seek and consume is for the sake of entertainment. These talks are entertainment because we just don't want it. We say we do; we tell everyone we do but we know that we don't.
My simple advice for you is- observe your environment and act accordingly. Think back on your mistakes in the long run, identify what you want and don’t want, take note of ways things didn’t work for you and keep trying until you attain the perfection you desire.
It’s that simple!
