๐Ÿ˜ฒ Wanna know what I hate?

Hey, It's Chris. Thank you to everyone who responded to my email last week. It's heartwarming to hear there's curiosity and desire for what I'm working on. However, recently I've struggled. I found myself pissed off at things. Wanting to give up and just abandon the effort to communicate the ideas Iโ€™ve been sharing. And I think I found the causeโ€ฆ Itโ€™s not that Iโ€™m disinterested in this subject. At all. In fact, Iโ€™ve been reading, learning, and having more breakthroughs in the past week since...

๐ŸŸฉ I Think, Therefore Iโ€ฆ Donโ€™t?

Some people debate the idea of free will.Well... I guess that's their choiceโ€ฆ ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿคฃ OK... So, bad dad jokes aside... What Iโ€™ve got for you today is something more practical than philosophical debate:Volition. Specifically: Getting good at getting good. Or, as I put it after one of my patented 'shower thoughts' - โ€œIt's the targeted and intentional improvement of the targeted and intentional improvement of things.โ€ Let me explain... Imagine youโ€™re picking up a new habit.Weโ€™ll go with something...

๐ŸŸฅ I had to stop, before it was too late

Hey. Soโ€ฆ This wasnโ€™t planned. But I couldnโ€™t move forward without saying it. Justโ€ฆ because it felt honest. Iโ€™ve been thinking a lot lately about where this is all headed. The truth is, it started over ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ ๐ฒ๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ฌ ๐š๐ ๐จ when I first learned about this stuff. But, life happened, or I got lazy and distracted. Probably both. I definitely got discouraged by others - when people look at you like you're crazy it really makes you wonder if maybe you might be, ya know? (Am I? Asking for a friend haha!)...

๐Ÿ’˜I’m A Navy SEAL of Not Feeling Things.

So Iโ€™m in the shower. (I know. Imagery. Settle down) Waterโ€™s hot.Brainโ€™s doing that thing where it tries to solve all of existence before everyone wakes up, like, donโ€™t worry guys... I got this. And suddenly... bam.Meditation. Gross, I know.Iโ€™ve avoided it for years. I get it. I do. I just donโ€™t wanna. Sit still?With your own thoughts?On purpose?What am I, five?Back in the naughty corner for melting crayons on the heater?No thanks, Ms Banks.(I may have mildly suppressed teacher issues ๐Ÿซฃ๐Ÿคช)...

So. Apparently, Iโ€™m immortal now. Yeah.Didnโ€™t see that coming. But here I am. Think Iโ€™m joking? Oh my sweet summer child… Right now I amโ€ฆ100% bite-proof.Mosquitoes? Pfft.Spiders? Not interested.Sharks? Havenโ€™t tested it, but I like my odds.Crocodiles? Yeah nah. Not that immortal. Pretty sure I could survive a casual trip toโ€ฆ
