Independent Thought Success

Saturday the 14th of June 2025 and I really want to hone in on not you know this idea and it's not necessarily just an idea it's really and truthfully like a practice it's a dangerous practice when I say dangerous I really mean more like it's a damaging practice but then in the same

way it's a damaging practice it could also be like a very kind of like a rewarding practice it can be a very constructive practice and it's really about engineering kind of like the definition of like you know my life your life anyone else life, in accordance to how they effectively perceive themselves.

And you see, the thing the thing is, is this, like, we often engineer kind of like the quality of our lives and how well we're doing on the basis of a template, or an idea of kind of like, you know, what it means to kind of like live a good life, have a good life or have a successful career in whatever way, shape or form that you want to put it. And I want to effectively obliterate the aspects of the templates that I've been accustomed

to that effectively don't make me feel great about myself. For example, being of a certain age and not having kind of like achieved certain successes, which seems to be kind of like a typical construct, kind of like in today's society, or in contemporary society anyway. Youngsters nowadays believe that if they're not kind of like, you know, in a relationship married and as a successful career by 30, then they are in somewhat kind of like in some sense, a failure. And I somewhat suffer from that same construct in a sense,

but I'm a little bit more aware and I'm a little bit more kind of like wiser to the notions that that's not the way that life necessarily works sometimes and it doesn't make me any less of kind of like a, of a success just

because I haven't done things within a certain time frame so like you know I really want to begin to hone in on that because it's very very important to develop a you know a relationship a relationship that is independent of anybody else's standard or anybody else's notion of what it means to be great what it means to be successful, what it means to be successful. Because at the end of the day, nobody really cares. You know, when you go to sleep at night, you're asleep, you know, you're falling asleep to your own thoughts,

to the sound of your own breath, you know, your own accomplishments, you know, do this for you. Like don't do this for anybody else, because really and truthfully, nobody cares.
