Avoid The Pretty Wallpaper Of Life

By Evan Sanders


Appreciate the madness in real things.

Without a modest amount of uncertainty, it's going to lack depth. Without depth, you're going to skim the border of what's actually possible for you. Without finding your best stuff and what defines your foundation, growth and fulfillment will look like a far away dream. You see, there's an inclination to become romanced with the quick and easy, but that's not where the magic is. The magic lies in the depths. The magic takes some soul searching. The magic is in jumping out of the ship completely and diving deep down into unexplored waters all while having unbreakable faith that you're going to find a pocket of air on the way down.

But what if negative emotions and fear crawl in? You have to embrace them.

The world we live in is full of chaos. It's a absolute mess at times and it's a miracle that we can even keep ourselves together for most of it. It feels like we are all on the verge of complete breakdown day after day because of the complexity of what we are constantly dealing with. However, when we slow down a bit to appreciate what is going on with our lives and sit in this moment, we deeply connect to what's actually going on. When we can connect with the present moment we can dive into ourselves much more easily.

But if we stay on the surface, it's like trying to build a home out of wallpaper.

When it all boils down to it, keeping your life on the surface level is not going to cut it when you want to do some serious development. If you really want to make some serious changes, you have to get down into the dirty and pick the weeds out yourself. Life isn't always pretty. In fact, life can be incredibly dirty and murky at times. But if you don't do the work that's necessary to heal it will always be that way for you. There will always be dark colors running through your heart.

Give up thinking that you know everything and be constantly surpassed by what life has to offer you. Instead of presuming what the future is going to offer, let it do its thing and you will not be let down one bit. Dive into experiencing life at a foundational level and open yourself up to experiencing everything that it has to offer and you will find the true madness and excitement in all real things.

But you have to do the dirty work at the foundational level first.

So forget about the outer layers and focus on the inner layers first. Focus on building the strongest core and foundation and everything else will fall into place. Build your life on rock solid ground instead of flimsy wallpaper and everything becomes a hell of a lot easier.

Don't just live a life surviving. Live one where you thrive.
