Almost no human wants the Truth.
Every single one of them wants a hack, a fix - a lie.
From the kid in college summoning "willpower" to finish his assignment,
to the Silicon Valley CEO in his Armani suit fighting "anxiety" during his demos
to the engineer awaiting the "motivation" to start his own company.
This contentedness with a lower every-day living is ubiquitous.
No matter how benign or high-stake the matter at hand.
The "explanations" for this observation will be many and varied.
The Truth behind this observation is one -
W.H.A.T.E.V.E.R be the "problem" at hand it will continue to exist.
The kid will need to summon "willpower" every day.
The CEO will have to deal with "anxiety" until the day he retires.
The engineer will stay an engineer for the rest of his life.
Why?
Because the kid, the CEO, and the engineer are conditioned to live that way.
I will warn.
This conditioning that I mention, is no trivial one.
It is the most dangerous and addictive kind.
I know what you will say to this.
How can such a thing go unnoticed?
And I will respond...
In your question is the proof that you are living and breathing in the condition.
Very, very few people will grasp my response.
...
Consider this for an instance.
Which detrimental situation is likely to exist and never relieve Mankind -
The one that is obvious in the manner it causes discomfort.
OR
The one that is not even recognized and touted to be "normal" and "natural"?
Yes.
The conditioning I speak of is the latter.
You are conditioned to look for things such as motivation, willpower, or confidence.
This is the root of it all.
This is why time and again you succumb to lies and hacks.
For you do not summon enough seriousness to recognize there is a deeper,
far grave situation.
What Situation?
The answer to which will not almost certainly not help you.
But I will give it to you anyway.
The situation that exists is two-fold.
On one end, there are you and others like you,
wanting to have willpower, or be motivated and confident in their endeavors.
But let me tell you something.
You want it but you do not WANT it.
That is, your wanting is too shallow.
You want to be confident at one specific task and okay with wanting it again for another.
You are okay with being NOT confident otherwise.
Put another way...
You do not want to be confident or motivated - all the time
You do not want to feel what hides behind those words.
Because of this lack of desire for the Truth behind those things,
you are content with chasing the lies sold to you.
On the other end, you have the zoo of those who provide you this lie.
A conditioned supplier must exist to provide for the conditioned consumer.
So here you have intellectuals, professors, researchers, psychologists, and other
"lie seekers" who do the needful.
What do they do?
Thought you will not ask.
They are in a "deeper shit" if I allow myself some profanity.
You see, they do not know why they are "naturally confident" or mostly "motivated".
Instead of understanding those traits,
they choose to engage in the completely futile and utterly imaginary endeavor
of research and analysis,
and then publication and techniques,
and then basking in the resultant arguments and verbosity.
They experience the Truth of their "abilities" but mask it by concocting lies with their Mind.
Yes, I know.
Laughable and disgusting at the same time.
...
This double-sided feedback loop is the grave situation that you do not recognize.
And your conditioning does not allow you to recognize this.
Yes, yes, dear friend.
The world of lies is an intricate web.
The conditioning it tarnishes you with, its lifeblood.
And yet,
a mere glimpse of raw and unvarnished Truth can free you from it.
Once and for all.
But only if you WANT it.
Thank you.
