Occupy your mind
Many of you are probably following what's been going on with the Occupy movement... now lets say you're too far away from major cities wherein people are meeting up and the like... what can you do?
Occupy your mind! What do I mean by that? I mean clear out all the USELESS NOISE mass media tries to fill your mind with and occupy your mind with YOUR THOUGHTS! YOUR BELIEFS! YOUR IDEALS!
I haven't watched television in over 12 years... it was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life... television is injecting your conscious and subconscious mind with GARBAGE nonstop...
Radio... newspapers... magazines... most all major online news sites... TOTAL TRASH... now what what happens to you when you're constantly allowing your mind to be filled with TRASH?! It makes you sick...
If you have any sense YOU KNOW who OWNS mass media... and whose agenda is promoted through it... not your's and mine my friends thats for sure... and it does NOT have our best interest in mind... quite the contrary actually...
Lets throw out some well known cliches... "You are what you eat" Agree on that one? Eat bad food = sick body.... now how about the cliche "food for thought"... what are you feeding your mind? Celebrity gossip? War mongering ignorant bullshit? Reality shows? Eat bad food for thought = sick mind
You NEED a healthy mind that YOU are the master of if you're ever going to achieve anything outside of the norm of accepted human existence...
Try staying away from all forms of mass media for one month and I bet you'll like what happens to your mind... it will start to become yours again... you'll actually be able to hear YOUR inner voice...
We all know television, radio etc are on the way out... so what has replaced that noise? Facebook?
I had a Facebook account for about a year in 2008 then deleted it... and you know what... my life got better because of it! My mind was at ease... less noise to take in... and I haven't missed anything... does it really matter if I know some d00d got a new haircut or not? Or if I saw some fools vacation photos?
There's more noise to take in than ever before... a lot of us feel the need to "keep up" like we always have to know the newest news on whatever we're interested in... like we're going to miss something...
There's nothing to miss... its all just more noise to keep our minds preoccupied with things OTHER than the work we're supposed to be doing in the world...
So if you're not already.... try cutting off all the noise and occupy your mind... I'm sure you'll find some interesting things in there ^_^
BUT don't listen to me if you want to be rich and famous as I'm far from either... Sure my own thoughts make me feel like a pathetic loser sometimes as its not all fun and games up in our minds... its actually quite the opposite at first... all your repressed trauma, regrets, shame, pain, fear... all that stuff will come up... BUT if you read my B_BOOK you'll know how I learned to burn that pain for fuel and make art with it...
