I was (maybe at a time) guilty of pretending to be stronger than my problems rather than actively seeking a solution. It eats deep into one, and destroys from the inside. It sounds crazy but when you recognize how limited you are, it is actually quite liberating
Reminds me of one concept I’ve contemplated a lot before, how the whole, “I am limitless,” dogma in the personal development & inspiration movements is bullshit - completely delusional.
whereas, it is in the acceptance of what limits actually do exist, where we have our eyes open, conscious to the realities in front of us, rather than operating on flawed belief systems - thus able to navigate the territory with clarity and work effectively within the boundaries, expanding them in accordance to natural Law if desired, rather than blindly striving for what’s unachievable out of ignorance.
I probably wrote and posted something about it here at some point, though can’t recall where/which.
