Why You Don't Get All The Things (An Essay)

in , , , , , , ,

You don’t get ALL THE THINGS just because you’re ‘doing the work’.

You get ALL THE THINGS THAT ARE TRUE FOR YOUR BEING EVERY FUCKING STEP OF THE WAY FOR THE REST OF YOUR FUCKING LIFE regardless of the work.

Which is what you’ve been getting since the moment you were born.

So ‘doing the work’ doesn’t change the fact that you’re always exactly where you need to be in whatever circumstance you find yourself in that’s undoubtedly refining you beautifully.

Doing the work just ‘removes’ the illusory shit in the way of you seeing how fucking perfect it all is regardless of how it appears or what does or doesn’t happen because let’s face it, shit is always happening.

That’s life.

What is or isn’t happening is never the problem.

How we misperceive it, is.

Someone in a relationship isn’t more advanced / on track than someone not in one, and vice versa.

Someone with a fuckton of cash isn’t more advanced / on track than someone with nada, and vice versa.

Someone with a specific health condition isn’t less advanced / less on track than someone without one, and vice versa.

You can’t use external metrics to measure the quality of one’s inner experience or the precision of one’s energetic game because the work has nothing to do with the external even though it can impact it.

Things most definitely move more seamlessly when you’re actively doing the work simply because you’re not repeatedly jamming your own circuits with your own bullshit / clutter / mispercepetions / expectations.

And if you’re attached to what your ‘been doing all the work’ life should look like (the man, the fat account, 20 pounds lighter, whatever the fuck), you’re still not hitting the right spot because you’re aiming for something ‘out there’ to validate what you’re doing ‘in here’ instead of staying right here where the magic really happens (which has nothing to do with what does or doesn’t happen externally).

Doing the work (seeing through the matter) results in being okay no matter what happens and no matter what it ends up looking like, and trusting (well it’s even beyond trust - you just KNOW) that your being knows far better than you what the hottest concoction is for you every step of the way (if you’d just get outta the damn way and do exactly what you know you need to do because you’re being told how to move in every fucking moment).

And it’s not that you won’t ‘get’ the cash or the man or the body whatever else it is you think you want.

It’s that you inevitably get to a place where you’re so fucking juiced even without it, that you’re not even feeling like a damn thing is missing (because nothing ever is), and you know that what’s truly for you is both inevitable and ever-present, and you know it’s the experience you’re after; not the thing itself,

as the unimaginable licks you from head to toe

in ways you never even dreamed of.

How To Make Every (Non) Move (An Essay)

in , ,

making your move

based on / for / because of another

based on / for / because of the external

based on / because of what you imagine may or may not happen in the illusory future you’ll never actually meet because it will always and forever be NOW

is not the vibe

you need to make every single move

and every non-move, too (same thing)

from and for you

just because it’s true

Managing The Bottomless Pit (An Essay)

in , , , , , ,

If you’re managing your thoughts,

you’re managing matter.

If you’re managing your emotional state,

you’re managing matter.

If you’re managing your health,

your finances,

your relationships

or any other part of your life,

you’re managing matter.

Seems like a lotta fucking work.

Exhausting, never-ending, bottomless pit work.

Because there will always be thoughts and emotions.

There will always be the body, other people and the bank account.

There will always be the woes of the world and this strange little thing called life.

But those things on their own are never the ‘issue’,

no matter what they are or aren’t comprised of.

It’s all the matter surrounding them that causes you grief.

Clear that and there’s nothing left to ‘manage’.

Every (illusory) problem solved.

It's Not About The Price (An Essay)

in , , ,

It’s not: ‘Of course they make a lot of money. Look how much they charge.’

If it was as simple as that, then why don’t you try to charge what they charge and see what happens.

Spoiler Alert:

Nothing will happen.

Because your move wasn’t true.

It was tainted with something artificial to prove.

There are people charging at every single price point for all kinds of things.

Some are making a killing.

Some are not.

And it’s not the price that determines that.

A high price doesn’t guarantee it will be sold.

Nor does a low one.

You already know this.

So it’s not about the price itself.

It’s about what’s actually true.

Tighter, Baby (An Essay)

in , ,

How energetically sharp / clean / tight can you get?

Before you say anything.

Before you do anything.

When you say anything.

When you do anything.

How pure are you willing to be?

Is the true move to actually open that message right now?

To respond to it right now?

To write exactly what you wrote?

Did you even MEAN that?

Or were there add-ons?

Embellishments.

Half truths or whole lies.

Is the true move to answer the phone just because someone’s calling?

Or is it to call that person back?

Or to stop talking to them altogether?

Is the true move to spend your money on that particular thing?

For that amount exactly?

Or to not spend a damn thing.

And save every dollar you get.

Is the true move to take a nap?

To sleep in?

To stay up?

To go a week barely catching a wink?

Each of these things are oh so little but they make up your entire life.

And the way you play with each little thing is then how you conduct your whole life.

So how true are your moves?

How YOU are you?

And how much truth are you leaving on the metaphorical table because you automatically default to false?

Clean it up.

As the fucking boss that you inherently are, you gotta use whatever and whoever is in front of you right now, to make your truest, hottest, yummiest move.

You don’t have to wait for anything or anyone or for something BIG, for you to move like a boss.

No happening is ever too small.

And every single happening is what you must use,

to sharpen your energetic game.

Anything Less Is A Lie (An Essay)

in , , , , ,

My hands shook when I sent her the number for our call ($25,000).

An unexpected but completely accurate number for her and I.

A number I didn’t think my way to.

I just knew in a moment.

It’s this or nothing.

Anything less (or more) - a lie.

A lie that would soften the edge of ME.

And I’d rather die than do such a thing.

She could take it or leave it.

That wasn’t the point.

Nor was the amount I chose.

I’m here to ride my edge all the fucking way,

and see how far I go.

Overcompensating With Words (An Essay)

in , , , , , ,

It’s never about the words themselves.

It’s about the energy sourcing them.

Which is why someone can speak or write the most beautiful piece, but you still can’t feel a thing.

It’s flat.

It’s dead.

It’s from the mind.

Not the being.

From a concept.

Not lived truth.

It’s overcompensating with words,

for what has yet to be touched.

Why You Chase BIG Dreams (An Essay)

in , ,

Focusing on a BIG, seemingly ‘unachievable’ dream that happens somewhere ‘out there’ at another time that is definitely not now, is the perfect way to cockblock yourself from making any moves at all.

That’s why you made it so BIG.

To make sure that you wouldn’t move.

And you blame the BIGness of the thing for the moves you aren’t making…

but you’ve created and are using the BIG thing to keep you from going too far.

Of course you can have BIG dreams (which are often just visions of you unobstructed).

But there’s a difference between knowing what you’re here for and making your moves from that knowing…

and experiencing your pulsating desire and doing all that you can to put something, anything, between you and the very thing you’re most afraid to create and own.

Elixir For Your Being (An Essay)

in , , ,

Regardless of the move, you can feel if it’s distorted or clean.

The matter is felt.

The lack of it as well.

If you’re not doing a particular thing, and that non-doing comes from avoidance, resistance, resentment, holding back truth, or any other energetically contracted state, it’s palpable.

Dense.

Heavy.

Gross in your system.

If you’re not doing a particular thing just because it’s true not to do it, with nothing attached to that non-doing, it’s clean.

Beautiful.

An elixir for your being.

You Don't Need Closure (An Essay)

in , , , , , , , ,

When you let a situation ‘bleed out’ (come to its natural and inevitable conclusion), you choose not to touch it because it doesn’t require an intervention.

It’s not avoidance.

It’s knowing through discernment.

It’s staying where it’s true.

Not remaining where it’s flat.

And…

It’s not true that you need ‘closure’.

To wrap things up.

To contrive an end point, just so you can say it’s done.

It’s done the moment it flatlines.

Anything beyond that is just more of that.

No need to state the obvious.

Or bring it back to life.

Just stay where it’s most alive,

as everything dead falls away.

(Peep this Mandy Bite)
