Be Selfish
We’ve been taught that this is a negative approach. We’ve been programmed through our environments, friends, family, society, news, media, social media… all of it. We’ve been taught being selfish is a bad thing and we should be like this.
This is just a belief that has been projected onto us, that it’s immoral to be selfish, that we should always be selfish and give give give. But how are we meant to give give give if we have nothing left to give? It makes no sense.
Because it ‘looks good’ on camera, because it ‘looks good’ in the news is just fake bullshit which is the real immoral truth.
A lot of people live in unnecessary shame and guilt because what they REALLY WANT they have suppressed deep in themselves because society and the public wouldn’t deem it as a worthy pursuit.
Living in shame is the lowest form of energetic being you can be. Check the Map of Consciousness by Dr David R. Hawkins. Shame is the lowest form of energy… and we are doing it to ourselves.
We think it’s a shame to want that Lambo, that mansion, that watch, to fly first class or that precious title because it’s superficial and material… says who? Everything is just made up, why should you feel shame for wanting something YOU WANT?
It’s shameful to have something we want selfishly and bury that in replacement for something else we think the world would think is acceptable. Don’t suppress yourself for what you want.
Go pursue what you genuinely want to pursue, it doesn’t matter what it is there are no rules, just rules of thumb. The underlying principle is finding what lights your fire and that’s why it’s called a burning desire. Find your calling that’s burning to be answered.
Some people may think this is totally selfish still, and let them think that. How are we ever going to be there for the people we want to and serve them when we are not serving ourselves first, putting ourselves first and becoming the best versions of ourselves? How can we help people achieve their dreams when we haven’t first done ours?
Fulfil the personal dream you have for yourself first. If you can’t be selfish for yourself, how can you help other people?
The most moral thing you can do is what you ACTUALLY selfishly want to do. And the most immoral thing you can do is to do what sounds really moral and not give a shit about it.
Wanting to buy a Ferrari in cash for yourself just because you want to is way more moral than providing clean water and food for starving people in Africa for fame and social popularity.
Allow yourself to want and pursue.
Do what’s true.
Pursue the genuine without judgment.
Until next time,
Brody
