Give up your illusions. Go forward with your values, your strength, and with objective truth.
Itβs easy to pretend to yourself, and to go along with the pretenses of others. But that doesnβt take you anywhere worth going.
Step away from whatβs merely easy, from what just looks good on the surface. Go with whatβs truly good at the deepest level, whatβs useful, enduring, and real.
Refuse to buy in to assertions that cannot stand rigorous scrutiny. Insist on reality, because when all is said and done, reality is what remains.
Put your assumptions to the test, and discard those that fail. Seek to learn from every interaction, from every experience, what works and what doesnβt, what is true and what isnβt.
Looks can be deceiving, as can narratives, expertise, feelings and impressions. Take it all into consideration, then do the difficult work to determine and to go with what is true, with what is real.
