If you want something, what does it mean to want it?
And what it means is to sacrifice whatever is necessary to get it.
Sometimes you need to feel the pain and sting of the feet to activate the real passion and purpose that God predestined his side of you.
You would rather find purpose than a job or career.
Purpose disciplines.
Purpose is an essential element of you.
It is the reason you are on the planet at this particular time in history.
We've been told two lies in our life.
The first lie is you're nothing.
You're not worth anything.
You haven't got anything.
That's the first lie.
The second lie we've all been told is you can be anything.
It's a lie.
It's not true.
The way we're wired defines what we can do with that wiring.
And therefore the truth is you can't be anything you want, but you can be everything you are.
Is to give up desiring as much as you can.
Don't want to go beyond the point of which you're capable.
Not only is it the middle way between the extremes of asceticness of them and pleasure-seeking,
but it's also the middle way in a very subtle sense.
Don't desire to give up more desire than you can.
And if you find that problem, don't desire to be successful in giving up more desire than you can.
So if I had a gift to give you, it would be maybe make a different decision.
And a decision is that no matter what happens in your life, you're going to live in a beautiful state.
A beautiful state.
And that could be happy, that could be grateful, that could be being generous.
Those are all beautiful states, aren't they?
It could be curious.
It could be fun, it could be playful.
You're not limited to one state, but it's different than suffering.
And most people suffering and all suffering I've ever seen.
Suffering always comes because you're obsessed about something related to you.
You can only be depressed if you're focusing on yourself.
The weeds are greed, negativity, manipulation, power, control.
So every day I'm literally gardening my heart by twilling out every weed and plucking out every weed that I no longer want to plant in my house.
Because guess what? Weeds end up looking like seeds.
Often in our life, the weeds and the seeds look exactly the same when they start growing.
And that's one of the biggest challenges.
We're wired for generosity, but we're educated for greed.
We're so deeply wired for generosity, but everything's trying to pull us away from that.
It's about you.
It's about how you think you, what you should have done or shouldn't have done or what someone did to you or didn't do to you in the past through the future which don't even exist.
So I have a simple goal.
My goal is help people make a decision that says, I don't know what's going to happen.
Not positive thinking bullshit, just the truth.
So if that's going to happen, I say make a decision now that says, I'm going to live in a beautiful state and I'm going to find beauty and whatever life brings me.
ever life brings me. If it's meant for you, I don't know what your future is, but if you are willing
to take the heart away, the more complicated one, the one with more failures at first, their
successes, the one that has ultimately proven to have more meaning, more victory, more glory,
then you will not regret it. The light of new realization shines on you today, but the challenges
that you choose to complain.
As you commit to your past, press on with pride and press on with purpose.
But the equation is something like,
you don't want it unless you're willing to sacrifice for it.
And if you don't want it, you're not going to get it because you're scattered.
But if you do want it and you make the proper sacrifices,
then God only knows what might happen.
When you identify what you're good at,
what you're good at what you love your wiring your qualities your values your skills
your abilities and you use that to make a difference in the life of other people
that's when you're gonna feel more most fulfilled fulfillment is not just about
doing good it's about becoming better and then doing good with what you have
because no one can demonstrate to you that if you straighten yourself out and
aim at what you want and make the proper sacrifices that your life will turn out
in the manner that you might want it to turn out.
It isn't in anyone else's purview to make that judgment.
The only person that can possibly figure that out is you.
It's something that can't be stolen from you.
I would say it's your destiny.
It's a destiny that cannot be stolen from you.
And you can forego it.
You can say, well, I'm not willing to put in the effort,
because what if I fail?
Well, first of all, if you don't put in the effort, you will fail.
Because life is hard.
and it takes everything out of you to do it properly.
Because if you let your breath go, it'll come back.
So, nirvana is not annihilation.
Nirvana is the state of being let go.
It is a state of consciousness and a state of being
here and now in this life.
