The END is NOT the END.
(The end goal is not the real goal)
What we do — we don’t MERELY do it for what it ACCOMPLISHES.
But the PROCESS is NOT the END either
(It’s not about the journey either, not per se)
What we do — we don’t MERELY do it for HOW THE PROCESS FEELS.
The REAL END of why we do anything is the INDIVIDUAL MAKING OF A CHOICE, AND EXERCISE OF WILL in BLAZING THAT PATH
Which is PURPOSE. MEANING. INDIVIDUALITY. POWER. WILL.
And this is why upon realising this truth, and dedicating oneself to just the PURE DOING OF THE RIGHT THING, the REST becomes a DISTRACTION
EXPERIENCE of the process largely becomes a distraction:
-how FUN it was becomes a distraction
-how “HARD” it was becomes a distraction
You do what you do REGARDLESS of the GOAL, AND regardless of the PROCESS
Neither seeking nor escaping any particular preconception of how the process should feel — instead just accepting it how it is at the moment
The END GOAL becomes a distraction:
The END GOAL is really but a pretext.
As all goals, all acquisitions, all desires — it will inevitably prove itself to only have been empty
It will really only have served as an impulse to DO something.
DOING is what it means to be alive.
Of course both EXPERIENCE and GOAL are bound by SOME RULES to the OVERARCHING self-VISION
Again: goal is a pretext — but pretext must have fucking sense.
And again: process is but means to an end — but it must be FEASIBLE, and SUSTAINABLE.
In practice one simply should:
-set AMBITIOUS GOALS — because that’s what makes one feel most ALIVE
and this can be as simple as DOING WHAT ONE REALLY WANTS,
(IF one could TOTALLY, truly DO IT)
-then MAXIMALLY FOCUS ON THAT ALIVENESS
-and still bring forth MORE of that ALIVENESS oneself — by creating positive EMOTIONS oneself. Not seeking them. CREATING them.
and by creating ENERGY oneself
Indeed,
let the positive OR negative fortuities just be
-to avoid negative (including simple exertion) is formally called BEING A BITCH
-to attract negative is typically to be NEGATIVE and of LOSER-MENTALITY
-but to CALMLY ACCEPT NEGATIVE is to experience PROFOUND POWER
(THIS is the therapeutic power of “hustle”, or “self-improvement”. Not any goal: but the process of DECIMATING your excuses, delusions, weaknesses, complacency, limitations…)
-to always seek FUN is to be self-indulgent bitch
(it’s not welness nor thriving. Pleasure is a side-effect of living. You don’t seek it, you just ENJOY it)
-to let GO of FUN and PLEASURE is to experience profound FREEDOM
-and to ACCEPT JOY is to be profoundly happy
The END is the WILL
