Limited Self Interest Is Selfish
Yes! Most, if not all, self-help methodologies are bullshit. The internet, book stores, faith circles are lined, paved with “gurus” who have books, seminars, internet downloadables and top 10 lists waiting for your cash. People are gunning for your desire to self improve. The question is, “Are you gunning for your self improvement?” There is cause to look in the mirror. Internal peace. Healthy relationships. The pursuit of passion. Dreams to be played out. You’ll have to get introspective if you want ‘em all or even one of ‘em. But!! Bigger than that list is the responsibility we all have to NOT simply live for ourselves. This lesson can be hard to come by because it means reconciliation with who you are. Limited self interest is a pain in the ass and if you live that way you’ll constantly be chasing the idea of who you are and not settling in to true self. The discovery of true self leads to peace, nothing to prove, nothing to lose, but it comes at the cost of you diving deep into the good, bad and ugly of who you are. Once there, you’ll find freedom, selflessness and a life fully alive: yours! I’ll be the first to tell you Guru’s are overrated. Spiritual directors tend to be too esoteric to understand and most coaches coach because their ego needs pacifying. But, If you have a desire to know true self, I GUARANTEE you the Divine will hand you a mentor regardless of title that will help your life’s work.
