Beyond the Mind

IF THEN logic might be useful to computers but for us human beings it is often less than useful.  The many IF THEN’s the mind seduces us with.   The everyday programmed mind most of us have is usually not our friend, but quite cleverly pretends to be.  It will promise us happiness, relaxation, whatever … but with a catch involved, always a catch involved.  What IF THEN’s does YOUR mind sucker you with?

IF only I had more money, THEN I would be happy…

IF only I had a really hot girlfriend who likes to have sex all the time, THEN I would be happy…

IF only I felt more in touch with what I should be doing with my life, THEN I would be happy…

IF only I had a better body, THEN I would be happy…

IF only I could just get this thing done, THEN I could relax…

IF only my boss wasn’t such a jerk, THEN I could enjoy my work…

BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is all just a crock of bullshit, don’t believe the hype my friends.  You can be happy RIGHT NOW, you can relax RIGHT NOW, you are the master, not your mind.  It might be useful to identify your top 5 or 10 IF THENS’s so next time your mind tries to rob you of your inherent natural right to be happy and relaxed for no reason at all you can tell it to take a hike.  It can be really helpful to explore this issue in a deep way, the pay off can often times be enormous for people.

The IF THEN’s are endless, maybe the content of them will change over time, but the effect is the same - they are all saying the same thing - “My life is not OK the way it is right now” …

and to that I say BULLSHIT!

Fart in the Face of this and THRIVE my friends
