Nobody Cares About you-And That’s Great
For the past few years, you disappeared from society, from the noise of the streetcars, from clubs of EDM; to wake up at 6 am, having 5 minutes of meditation with inhales and exhales, then start your day.
You realize you're not the center of the universe.
So many people you used to call "friends" aren't in the line anymore. Not a call out on weekend nights, not a greeting at Christmas, not doses of notifications from a pretty selfie you posted on social media, not a message unless it's asking for help.
No one really cares about you. No one cares about whether or not you survive.
I know, it's harsh. But it's the truth.
99% of people are so immersed in their own little world, emotional problems, relationships, careers... and most of them are psyoped by gurus to think there's one solution waiting out there to fix all of their issues.
If you don't want to get stuck in the rabbit hole of searching for life, you must realize this as early as possible.
The faster you realize this, the faster your life changes.
You are the only one who will put you at the top of your mind, which means you can be yourself.
Be yourself to evolve, fail, learn, and evolve...
In this process, you must reframe your real self-image. Your self-image is the golden key to living a better life.
The truth is, this can only be changed by you.
All your feelings, behaviors, actions, and beliefs are based on your self-image; it can only be changed based on a whole list of habits, skills, and mindsets to leverage this world successfully.
No one will remember if your first craft isn't perfect; no one will remember whether you're dead or alive; no one will remember your name in 5 years if you stop talking; in the end, no one will remember your mistakes.
After you have a self that you can trust and believe in, there won't be a situation that makes you feel unhappy, ashamed, lonely, fearful, lacking self-confidence, or like a failure.
You become acceptable to "you."
You are free; you can be anything you—not the idea of others.
When there’s no noise of others’ opinions in your head, it’s like you’re traveling in the new universe.
A universe is deep dark blue, waiting for you to explore, the stars give you signs, and your old problems seem not like problems anymore.
Your new goals are accomplished more smoothly than before.
Because you look at the obstacle as a way of opportunity for you to get to the next level, just like playing a video game, you must face the challenges to unlock the next level.
In my life before the serious accident, I never thought I would be at 6:30 am., sitting here at my desk, typing this on my keyboard.
And later I’ll publish it on my letter—Rise Above (Read for free).
Only a few times in my life have I tried to write; the first time was when I was 13, after reading too many storybooks, and I was trying to write a story in my notebook.
Then it was the time when I wrote music, but my lyrics were mostly either drawing a picture in my head or writing a little poem. No intention, just expression.
In fact, I didn’t write my essay when I graduated from university with a major I was not interested in at all.
But I had to finish, so I outsourced someone in my class.
So whenever I think about the timeline, and now I’m typing.
Unbelievable!
Do I worry about the judgment of my craft?
Yes, I do.
But it’s not about the opinions, it’s about making me write better, not for stopping.
Therefore, I’ll need to write more.
When you stop caring about opinions; when you stop putting pressure, stress on the road.
When you start just being you, exploring your potential, the power of taking ownership of your life and choices.
You’re on a different road. The road less walked.
In the next letter, I'll share actionable steps on how to walk this road. Don’t forget to add me to your contacts.
While you’re walking on this different road.
Remember: When you're thinking about what to do next, you know you're not gonna make everyone happy, so why bother?
Just be YOU.
