This wasn't originally intended for this site, but I thought I'd share with you guys too.
Foreword
First off, to the lazy fvcks who are ok with having a mediocre life and have the attention span of a four year old on a red cordial high, let me save you the trouble of scrolling down to check how long this is, by telling you that this is TWO THOUSAND words long. Shoo, shoooo.
Secondly, the following ideas and philosophies are drawn from my personal experiences, from my own life, if you like it, great, if not, throw it out.
Thirdly, there are incredible men out there who have paved the way for people like me who aspire to be the best I can be. These people have helped me immensely through their sharing and insights, and perhaps don’t even know it. So a big thanks to these people.

Ok class, let’s cut the bullsh*t and get this started. There will be no toilet breaks, you will not speak unless being spoken to, and you will shut the fvck up and listen carefully. Now get your pens out and take some notes…

“Lessons in Life”
A young man wakes up old. He wakes up unhappy, unfulfilled and realises the life he leads is nothing like that he hoped it to be. He realises he has wasted so much precious time and the best years of his life doing something he never loved. As if snapping awake from a hazy dream, he finally grasps the fact that he is growing old, that the dreams he so passively pursued are slowly slipping away from his reaches, and it dawns on him that he has turned out to be someone he himself doesn’t find interesting, someone that he wouldn’t want to hang around with… someone that he doesn’t even like.
He mutters a single word underneath his breath.
“fvck”.
Lesson One: Unplug Yourself from the Matrix
The majority of human beings coast through life on “autopilot”, they do things without understanding why, and their lives are just a blurry sh*thole of a movie you bought for 25c at some backyard garage sale. The plot is tacky, the main character is a loser, the co-stars are a bunch of d*ckheads and the ending leaves you thinking it was a waste of time and that you could have been doing something better.
When you go through life doing things without understanding why, making decisions without a clear goal and being constantly ashamed/dishonest/unclear with what you really want, you end up spending most of life pretty fvcking unhappy. You end up being the star of that movie, you feel like sh*t, the people around you end up being a bunch of douche bags you don’t even like, your life turns out to be empty no matter how much sh*t you buy and try to stuff into it, and one day you wake up realising all the precious time you wasted. Very few people have enough self awareness to realise what it is that they are really after, what their core values are and what will make them truly happy, a happiness that will last.
Lie to Anyone but Yourself
How many of you can say you are truly honest with yourselves? Do you really want to get into Accounting? Real Estate? Medicine? Or do you just want a “secure” future, the cash and the social status? Would you really enjoy it? Or are you just trying to convince yourself? Do you really like this girl? Or are you just justifying reasons to be guilt free in wanting to fvck her brains out? Do you even want to fvck her? Or just say you ****ed her, for that ego boost, the validation and to impress your mates? Do you even think that highly of your friends? Or are you just scared of being lonely? Are you really into the sh*t on the music charts? Or do you just want to fit in? Do you really like Reeboks/Nikes and all those fancy shoes? Or are you a sheep? Baaaah fvcking baaah.
I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with the things above, there is nothing wrong with getting into Accounting/Real Estate/Medicine, there is nothing wrong with being in love with a chick or being in a relationship, hell there’s not even anything wrong with wearing Reeboks and Nikes, not if you are honest with yourself and understand that you truly find these things important, that the passion is real not fabricated, because if they aren’t, the bullsh*t happiness you find in these things will never be real, and never last anyway. Save yourself the trouble and get it right the first time.
So many of us drift through our lives, doing things that are a fvcking waste of time, doing things because it “seems like a good idea”, without thinking, doing sh*t just for the sake of doing it. Then all of a sudden you’re 40, you know you’re spouse is not the right one for you and you are in an unhappy, boring, unfulfilling relationship, you have an average life that bores you to tears and the dreams you always thought you’d one day achieve have become pale and lifeless, the very happiness, the juice of life that drives and inspires us to go on has been drained from your body. You breathe but you feel lifeless. Your heart is beating, but you’ve been buried. When your core values are gone, when your passion for life dies, so do you.
By asking yourself the right questions and being completely honest with yourself, you will slowly notice a heightened sense of awareness and see the world in a different light, as if you now possess the ability to take a step out of your body to view and judge your own actions. This is the first step in unplugging yourself from the matrix, with your raised self awareness you have now separated yourself from the majority of humans who don’t even know their fvcking selves, who end up wasting their lives away pursuing a happiness they’ll never attain, mostly because they are looking in the wrong places. By turning autopilot off and taking control of your own actions, you have taken the first steps in escaping the web of lies and deceit, this matrix of ordinary, and be the few people who truly have an extraordinary life.
Upon reaching this heightened awareness, you slowly realise that a lot of the sh*t you’ve been taught is false, social conditioning has given you a bunch of useless tools, what’s accepted by society as a “normal life” isn’t necessarily going to make you happy, and a lot of the ideas adopted as “social norms” really just limit your experiences, and limit what you could truly achieve. “Common sense” and being “realistic” are really chains wrapped around your ankles to make sure you sit the fvck down and be depressed and live a sh*tty ordinary life like the majority of the human race.
The World You Knew Was a Cage
The belief systems and ideas that we pick up from society on our journeys in life often limit us from reaching our full potential. One of the most important concepts to grasp is that anything is possible. That line gets butchered and overused, but really take it in and fully appreciate what it means. Think outside the box, our society is a cage, and staying within what’s society considers “normal” or “respectable” is to be imprisoned by it. Refuse to be categorized, refuse to be forced into a box and refuse to be labelled. Remember to keep in mind that most humans have pretty sh*ty self awareness, and are all victims of a pathetic rat race. Never take what other people, or society says to be the absolute truth, as law. Question everything; unplug yourself from this matrix and become a free thinking human being. Use your fvcking head. Your brain is the most incredible tool you have, don’t waste it.
During World War II an experiment was done on captured prisoners. The aim was to explore the power of the mind and how much control it has over the body. They would blindfold a man and tell him they would slit his wrists, and that he would slowly die. The sensations and sounds of having his wrists slit and his blood dripping were imitated. The man had no idea what he was experiencing was fake, and believed he was dying. The man eventually died.
Even though his physical body had not been harmed, he still died. Because his belief in that particular horrible reality was so strong, it affected his body and eventually induced death upon him. Your mind is THAT fvcking powerful. Use it to your advantage.
Remove Your Limiting Beliefs
As humans we pick up so many fvcking useless belief systems that are not conducive to us aligning with our core values, you will never reach your goals if you have a belief that contradicts it. It’s like trying to run a marathon then shooting yourself in the fvcking knees. It won’t work. This is why I wanted to stress how important it is to believe that anything is possible.
Have you ever set yourself a goal but didn’t believe you would achieve it? Have you ever physically kept at something but mentally given up on the idea? Have you ever let other people’s pessimism and negativity get to you and hinder you? Like you felt a goal was so achievable, so real, but after constant gloomy cynicism from others you aren’t so sure of yourself anymore? It’s the doubt creeping into you mind that’s affecting what you believe to be possible.
