“The Superior man thinks of virtue; the small man thinks of comfort. The superior man thinks of the sanctions of the law; the small man thinks of favors in which he may receive”
— Confucius, The Analects, Part 4
As you work on making progress towards your evolution you must find an agreement with yourself to operate out of virtue and sacrifice.
What via crux are you capable of going through and why?
Once you embrace it, you will connect to truth and acquire a different societal position.
Connecting with virtue prevents fear. Calm judgment is the basis of fearlessness.
Sacrifices are about executing your ideas to their fullest extension and being capable of surrendering to the process.
Risk without possession.
Love without conditions.
Act and be relentless.
The moment you wake up is when you lose the fear of death. That is the start of the rest of your life. If you die today, would your transition in peace?
Beauty and peace are always available. Take the time to observe the atomic miracle of life and understand the absolute insignificance of our mental obsessions.
I’ve created a set of daily habits and systems that keep me accountable. They allow the courage and determination I need to go beyond survival mode.
