Natural Wisdom: Just Do IT

 It occurred to me today after visiting my dad in a rehabilitation center, and after a moment of reflection. There were many times I would intentionally and unintentionally talk myself out of it for many reasons over the past few years. Drug habits, inappropriate sexual activity, and pushing hustles for delusions of grandeur were priorities. Avoidance, procrastination, severe anxiety, feelings of impending doom, regret, resentment, shame, you name it, were the constant mixed bag of internal and external struggles with myself, my loved ones, and others. Now, after winning the many fights with my demons of psychosis, paranoia, and extreme emotional imbalance, and not listening to the angels of grandeur, validations, and reason. I sit here typing with earned confidence in myself, joy in my newfound love for writing, clarity and simplicity in my daily living, competency and complexity fulfilling my personal responsibilities, and a natural and ever-evolving purpose that I can be proud of. At first, it was just a few right choices being made. Throwing away the last of my drugs while cleaning my office, and knowing I couldn't help myself or others the way that I wanted to without doing so. faithful determination to complete the rough draft of a self-help project. Which has the potential to bring everyone together for the greater good. Steadily evolving into an all-around stable man in the process. With this Natural Wisdom blog that I write for you almost every day, my first published book Phoenix One, and continued building on what was the main project, Phoenix Down Academy. All authentically lived as I write and build them, and all a tool for others to relate to and use for their evolution. What first felt frustrating, difficult, and drawn out at times (only when I would "think" about it). Became redemption for all the wrongs I've done over the years, an honor to the people that I've hurt, and a true purpose for healing myself and serving others. Something my dad would always tell me growing up over the years was "just do it." Watching him, my mom, and my stepdad faithfully get up and work the same job for decades. Seeming like simple hollow words then, means much more to me now than it ever has. It is the catalyst for all of this. What started as a forceful, persistent, heavily pressured drive. Became and is still becoming a steady, graceful, and enlightened journey. All because I would just do it. That simple statement is how we're originally programmed and made to operate. We have grown accustomed to individually and collectively thinking first. An inherited way of living for as long as time can remember, and leaving us continuously seeking what we already know. Believing we're emotional creatures that categorize everything from ourselves, others, the way we should live, how the world should be run, and the list goes on in a never-ending, chaotic circle. Instead of letting our bodies fully run on their own without any thought or control. Giving all our time and energy to each other and the world as a whole. Eliminating any internal struggles, selfish or survival living, pain, and suffering. Encouraging external connection, selflessness, community, purity, and purpose in every individual. Transforming back to that original state of being will depend on the human being's life choices, but in its simplest form, we are all the same. From childhood to the present, we are all worthy of the life we collectively never understood how to obtain. The answer is within each individual, evolving outward. Staying relaxed with intention in every moment of every day, living outside of ourselves regardless of what our internal selves feel or say, and just doing it.
