It is simple. You stop trying. Instead, you do the thing you want to do. I mean, that's all you could ever do, except the whole time you were distracted with the thought that you should be doing better. Now, do it effortlessly and without judgement. Fold to every impulse and indulge in every fantasy. Effortlessly writing, drawing, talking, dancing, fucking, weeping, breathing, dreaming. Next time you look up from what you are doing you will notice one thousand miserable futures fade, clearing for you an empty space. You do not ask the world to love you, just as you do not ask your reflection to smile. Doing from love effortlessly the world has no choice but to love you back. This is how you pass the level.

take some time to reflect on how much you’ve grown over the last few months, in any way, whether you started going to therapy, got a new job, gained new interests, finished your exams, started journaling, or even became more empathetic towards yourself. remind yourself that growth is always there, and that it doesn’t need to be incredibly life-changing to hold significance. you are growing in every way; and these events often lead to very bright things.

“I want to be a force for real good. In other words – I know that there are bad forces, forces that bring suffering to others and misery to the world, but I want to be the opposite force. I want to be the force which is truly for good. ” –John Coltrane
