Promise to be “Normal”

Did you somehow Promise to be Normal?
Is that why your life doesn’t shine the way you want it to?
Let me put it another way….
Is your future going to be your past with a paint job?
Let me explain what I mean… If you were to take a look into the future of most peoples lives you would see that for the largest majority of them, their future will be pretty consistent with their past – except there’s possibly a slight and fairly uninspiring level of improvement. It’s like they took the old jalopy and gave it a paint job in order to convince themselves it was new.
I’m not saying this to me mean, we just need to be honest. Seriously, put some thought into it, most people are “waiting” for something or someone to bring about the change they say they want. Maybe “the secret” or some other magical thing will come along and solve their problems, but in all likelihood it won’t and in a moment I’ll tell you why.
Why is it that most people lives pretty much the same from year to year?
Why are so many people ‘stuck’ when we live in a time where there is more knowledge and more availability to that knowledge than ever before in history?
Are we on automatic and if we are, can we get off it?
Let yourself marinade in this thought:
“Most people’s lives are nothing more than the realization and the rationalization of a promise… A promise to whom, you may ask.
A promise or a series of promises they make to themselves”.
We either (consciously or unconsciously) promise to live ‘better’ than we have, and than those around us have, which means we are willing to butt up against the people, situations and what’s ‘normal’ in our lives. Please be clear , I’m not talking about being some kind of a rebel without a cause, what I am talking about is going “Deep” within to discover your authentic self.
Of course there is another option: Promise to not be a ‘problem’, take a look around, decide what’s ‘normal’, be quiet, accept your circumstances. Which means you also must accept how you are treated as a result of being with the people you’re with in those circumstances.
The question worth asking yourself is which set of promises are you living by?
Because that will absolutely determine every circumstance of your life for the next 5-10-20 years
I look forward to reading your feedback.
