The Big Possible

Surrendering to the universe isn't easy... in fact, it's pretty scary.

It might even seem like you're playing a game of chicken with fate.

That’s what it feels like right now. I’m staring down the uncomfortable barrel of a dark one lane freeway tunnel driving 90.  There’s some headlights ahead, and my ego is telling me to turn the goddamned wheel. What the hell are you doing?

Bro, trust me, go YOLO at a beach party where you can drink unlimited white claws and hang out with tanned beach babes frolicking in the sand. It’s 2021 for goodness sake! You’re not getting any younger! 

Quit trying to kill us both!!

And the ego keeps screaming.

My legs are shaking.

I don’t want to keep going forward.

But I have nowhere to go back to.

I have burned my boats.

I’ve annihilated my past identity.

I refuse to settle for the scraps from the table I used to have, no matter how easy they were.

And the headlights that mean a full, crushing death to my ego and the life I once had draw slowly, painfully closer.

It’s me and the universe now.

I’ll be damned if I go home without a miracle. So I’m gunning forward with nothing to lose.

Nobody told us faith would be so hard.

Nobody told us death of the ego would take so long.

I don’t know about you, but my ego is a resilient bastard.

I’ve tried burning it out with meditation, gratitude, habits, and all that.

But it’s found some way to survive.

So the only thing I could do is burn it all. Like a phoenix gambling for a glorious rebirth, I throw it all away.

I drive to the flames, headfirst to that sensation called surrender.

But the universe doesn’t come closer.

I start to get angry, desperate…. Mad. 

“Who is fucking with me?” I scream

And then I realize the ego has taken the wheel.

My headfirst plunge to the center of the flames has become a slow orbit.

All I can do is laugh.

I turn and look at the ego and shake my head in pity.

Let’s see who holds out longer.

It’s you and me now.

There is no going backward.

One of us is coming out of this alive and it sure as hell isn’t goin to be you.

And the ego shuts up, sits back in the passenger seat and we throttle the engine back to that place of surrender. That place of letting go.

One day, we will get there.

And today, I accept that it won’t happen on my time.

You are not meant for small things. You are not meant to rot in inaction. You are not meant to despair. You are above the pain. You are a champion. You are filled with unlimited power.

Now, how do you shake off of thinking small? How do you assume the role of a champion that you are in fact destined for? How do you stop getting in your own way with hesitation and start taking the big risks that will reveal the truth in who you were meant to be? 

There is an incredible golden sculpture under the common stone and casing you. It's time to have a lot of faith and cut away with a big bold strike of the hammer until the heavy, useless stones fall away and review the brilliance within.

Do not let the weight of small thoughts hold you back from greatness.

The greatness you should be seeking is in the now. Let the past melt away as the morning dew Under the Sun. Let the fear scatter to the horizons as you rise up with arms outstretched, roaring with total confidence that this is your moment.

Stand without condemning yourself and instead ask the heavens what is it you can use your unshakable pure power to achieve. When you truly are in the moment, you will realize that you are indeed all powerful.

Let go of small thoughts and big deeds will come. Pay attention to the stillness, the grass, the flowers, the birds. Be in the now.

Slow and steady wins the race. Today you are inevitably entering the day with a mountain of tasks and requests. 1000 things that would like for you to cough up your attention and fork it over. Each project wears the frightening and intimidating garb of a mountain bandit, or a bloodthirsty pirate, or even a spoiled aristocrat oh posturing for your attention… Or else.

Or else what? Is there truly something these phantoms can do to you? Sure, they might seem important. They might have consequences and threats that they wave around at you, but each of these tasks are simply that. I think. I think you can approach individually, sit in a quiet room together, pay up the required attention until the mountain bandit is so impressed with your diligence and thoughtfulness that he changes professions to a school teacher.

Do not attempt to enter a backyard brawl with your to do list. The loser of the battle royale will be you. Instead, approach each of your attention representatives earnestly, one by one. Listen to their demands and diligently oblige with their requests as a firm, benevolent ruler. Be steady and how you approach these problems and do not let the bandits accumulate too much strength by avoiding their demands. Slow and steady. Stay with it.

Today represents rebirth. You were born, then you learned, then you lived, then you were granted the blessing of the universe to develop and today, this is the time you were called forward: to start the game.

Everything in your past simply makes up your base stats - the data you begin the game with, The prologue to your story.

You were born for this day. All else is backstory. There is a great wide world waiting to be explored. Today you are given a batch of equipment and clues to go forward and release the universe from suffering into salvation. You simply need to focus on the quests before you know. 

So often you spent your days during the prologue longing for the riches of other characters, longing for the actions of the program to follow your blind decisions, never realizing that all of that was simply a cut scene, the backstory, leading up to this moment.

None of the phantom pains of the past are real. Zero. Today you awaken from the backstory. Today you awaken from the prologue. You were born for this day, today you choose to bring happiness with you on your quests, and save the world from suffering.

There is always a strategy. There is always a path. You must not let your expectations interfere with your vision of the road you were on. Even on a desert trail there are cactus flowers and lizards basking in the sun. In the slums were garbage rats, there are birds chirping and rays of sun light reflecting off the puddles in the gutter.

Let not your expectations stunt the possibilities bring the focus not to what you are lacking, but towards the present challenge. It is your mission now to train one thing in the moment.

It is your mission now to organize your surroundings and make clean your available resources. It is your mission in the now to press each of your talents and skills against the ceiling of their current potential until you break through.

It is that mission of yours today and every day to exercise the muscles in your body so that they grow stronger, more accurate, more dependable, more capable, more ferocious. You must end each day knowing you stretched all the fibers of your body to expand.

You then must circle back to your mission of cleanliness. Every day, you must rake the leaves in your physical garden, the surroundings you are in: your room, your kitchen, your desk.

And of course, you must rig clean the leaves of the mind. Making all open loops and unfinished projects have a neat and tidy place. You must also pluck any unsightly thoughts such as fear, doubt, hesitation. And instead plant confidence, courage and thankfulness.

You are on a beautiful path. Do not forget that and don’t let your expectations disturb your journey.
