Post 1,005: How to Build a Life

June 24, 20251 min read

What if I have spent my whole life listening to outside voices? Society, religion, my family, or my friends are all likely stand-ins for this scenario. Now, all of a sudden, I have this random guy telling me to try listening to myself. How am I supposed to ignore all these things I have been listening to, and start following this person I almost never have before?

Start small. Notice when someone else’s suggestion puts me off. Pay attention to the parts of my day I look forward to. Take a deep breath, and just begin practicing asking myself what I think, and what I feel.

Just start. The only way to build my own world is to put down the first block.
