#3. Stop Using your Facebook to affirm your addiction to insecurity.
Alejandro Jodorowsky once said, “Don’t be angry about having to help others because when you help someone else, you are helping yourself.”
And it’s true because selfishness breeds ignorance.
And ignorance is dangerous.
In the words of Oscar Wilde, “The real folly, which the gods scoff at or play with, is that which ignores itself.”
Let us not ignore our selfishness. Let us not justify it, for it is another form of self-deception.
Your outer ecosystem needs to heal so that your inner ecosystem ceases to be dark, dangerous, and harmful.
But where to start?
1. Stop using your enemy to affirm your addiction to hatred.
people are the way they are, and as life goes on, you realize it is tough for someone to change.
It is as if their personality crystallized.
And that has a bad part and a good part.
- The bad side is that you expose yourself to more conflicts.
- The good side is that if you try to approach those frictions as opportunities to adapt to hostility, you evolve as a human being.
And that’s what life is all about, progress.
Therefore, the first thing is not to hate and work spiritually to coexist with those who think differently.
2. Stop using your best friend to affirm your addiction to suffering.
There’s a world of difference between telling what’s going on with you and becoming a parrot who constantly repeats the same thing, “My ex left me,” “At my job doesn’t value me,” “My family doesn’t understand me,” “[Insert your favorite drama here].
Don’t abuse your friends, and don’t spend all day stirring up shit and criticizing others. Because doing so not only lowers your energy but the person listening to you.
Ask for advice, yes, but don’t get others involved in your mental shitty circles.
You will see how quickly your energy goes up.
3. Stop Using your Facebook to affirm your addiction to insecurity
Listen carefully: stop comparing yourself with people’s lives on social media.
You can’t keep thinking you’re the furthest behind in the race of life because it’s a lie.
All those smiling selfies you see on other people’s feeds are just a facade.
Shit happens to everyone.
Yesterday, Alejandro Sanz wrote on Twitter, “I’m not well. I don’t know if this does any good, but I want to say it. I’m sad and tired.”
And if a music superstar can have bad days, so can you. And that’s okay.
What you must avoid is to believe that it only happens to you. Stop obsessing about other people’s social media. And your vibe will go up 🙂
