as Joseph Campbell said we're so engaged
in doing things to achieve purposes of
outer value that we forget the inner
value the Rapture that is associated
with being alive is what it's all about
that my friends is the name of the game
you've got to figure out what it is that
actually makes you feel alive and if you
understand that the game that you're
playing is actually a game of brain
chemistry and that nothing else matters
there's no objective truth there's no
one path to Glory there's no one life
for you to live there's only the
subjective truth the thing inside you
that gut
instinct that voice that Whispers to you
you've got to learn to trust that you've
got to learn to trust it by building it
up you've got to learn to trust it by
taking actions and gut checking yourself
and asking is that me is that who I want
to be or is that somebody else cultural
voice my parents my lover whatever
trying to speak through me and as
Harley-Davidson said when right the
story of your life don't let anyone else
hold the pen so right now ask yourself
who's writing your story is it you are
you really listening to the voice in
your head are you looking at and living
by the things that give you the
chills or are you trying to live a life
that somebody else wants for you and
remember when you think about that
question what William James
said act as if what you do matters
because it does
even if for nobody else every step you
take every thought that you allow to
permeate your mind everything that you
obsess about your dreams the things that
you want the hopes that you spend your
time with they matter to you because
they tell you who you are they tell you
who you're trying to become and
ultimately those things that you let
monopolize your mind will become you so
if somebody else is holding the pen if
somebody else is forcing you to write
something that doesn't make you feel Al
that is a life lost and that is how you
died my friends before you ever had a
chance to live
