The best four steps you'll ever take.

Everyone wants success. It's on the tip of our tongue but we just can't spit it out. Other people seem to be having it but you aren't. Why is this?

Who knows...?

Why are you even bothering to waste your mental faculties with semantics? DARE to dream.

Dreams - We do it day and night.
Ambitions - Have to have 'em.
Realities - Oh, no.
Exuberance - Ah-hah!

Everybody dreams. Whether you want to or not, awake or in sleep, you dream of things. Your thoughts are waking dreams at times. Sometimes your waking life can be a dream. It's all relative to your mental acuity; to your perspective on the situation. It all sounds a bit dreamy, doesn't it? What separates a dream from reality? Semantics, perhaps? Once again who's to say? Dare to dream, dreamer.

So here you are minding your own business, entertaining your own mind with fantasies of lush and lavish dimensions; tangible mental visualizations or even in the simplest mode of solely prospecting ideals and relishing in their possibilities.

Floating along; you bump into something you really fancy. What's this? Something worth waking up a little bit for? What's this you call it? an anmbishun. "Ambition". Oh. I see. So what shall we do with this so called Ambition? What is it anyway?

Ambitions are what define (or seek to define) the modus operandi of our physical embodiment. A device that seeks to bridge the gap between The Dream and The Reality. When your eyes open you already have plans most likely. Dry-cleaning, catfood, return that RedBox movie. Who knows what you did last night. Each moment perpetuates the next. Every moment could be viewed as an ambition from this perspective. We'll talk about the cascade of Circumvented Ideologies that has lead to the development of your core-character. Ambitions are before realities - it's simple syllogism.... For now, stick with your groovy and pure thought; keep floating along. You found this in a dream, you're running with it. It's something worth going for; you're trying so hard but it's just not coming to fruition. Your ambitions aren't being realized as reality. Why?
....Wait, what?

Realities, what is this science class now?! I'm still just getting my gumption, bro.

Realities lurk just the same as they lie in wait to be discovered:

Okay, float around in your sweet thoughts for a moment. But come on down and pay the bills or change the kid's shitty diaper. Get some groceries, yea...you gotta have grocieries. I know you might not have kids, but you're not likely a freegatarian as well. However, without being presumptuous or sounding resoundingly crass or cliche, accept the fact that you're here, in society. It is what it is; a corporate dungeon and a whipping ground for the sinners in a world where sin is just another lie on a bank note. Where motives and hunger and fear and lust and marriage and wars and politics and religions and histories and societies and an entire race of beings... called themselves, "Human."

When it was all over they might have blown themselves up; torched and shackled both women and children of their own kinder. It might be happier, but is it really? So accept reality, just because you accept what is going on doesn't mean you have to stand for it. Once you realize these three states of existence simultaneously you will inspire a new state of exuberance in which there is no barrier between dream and reality. Possibility becomes endless and the heart resounds of all three modes, simultaneously - into liberation. This will bring you great insight and divine joy. It will free you from the shackles of bias and fascism. You will seek to educate and quell the unnecessary shame you might feel - victimization is a popular rite(or so it would seem). In the event that you are unable to attain this state of being you will be forced realize that you are both the perpetrator and the victim. In that moment you can still redeem the clarity of enlightenment, through realizing that this is nothing more than a game you're falling into. Until all three lenses of perspective come into focus simultaneously in a state of great exuberance, happiness and understanding will be lost unto you.

Exuberance, huh? What is this malarchy? You're freaking me out...

Okay, so this wise Bodhisattva once told me... Not!

Use syllogism to understand truisms; logic and meter prevail over long distances even if only in the form of frequencies or patterns. In this sense, we create our own reality by creating the conditions for that pattern of life to emerge and then allotting defined values to these discovered frequencies.

There's a lot of talk about this "quantum thinking," people calling this New Age thought a hard science, or something. It is indeed allegorical to the quantum world. Every object has a set of quantized parameters which it must meet otherwise it will be out of our realm of perception and we will not be able to differentiate one shape from another shape. If you look at fruit for example - geometric shapes, these objects have certain algorithms by which they grow, at times we see mutations in development and permutations but all usually reminiscent of the host object. You can put whatever colored glass you like over your eyes and write the best satire in town; it won't change the reality of things. Every impact you desire to have on the world starts from within, like a pebble in a pond - your influence will ripple out and around you. You will paw through dreams like play things and discern excellent ambitions with high integrity and relevance to your life; these ambitions will fruitfully blossom into realities at will - because you have been endowed the hands of the architect; the potters wheel - upon which the clay of your life is molded and melded with other samples.

You have just taken control.



D.A.R.E. to dream.

It all starts with the dream, leads into the ambition, and is succeeded by the reality so quickly that we are often lost on this. It is a process that has been going since the spark of our intellect. Since before we developed a personality. Since the spark our brain has been saying to our body, "Okay, now body...stay running, keep feeding, keep breathing and questioning things with a rational and reckoning force." The thing works! It's a living machine.

Too many people get caught up in the now and the last 2000 years and this and that, but what does it all mean? What if? Who knows? You don't.

Make it your goal to understand and stop asking questions to other people. Start proposing personal goals and introspective inquisition into your greater ambitions. Don't forget about reality; but try and realize all three of these domains as one organic unit: Dreams; Ambitions; Realities...posit them exuberantly.

With this guide and a sound discipline for righteousness, one will succeed. This essentially means being more than a Nihlist or pure Absurdist; to shun the Agnostic into the Gnostic. Open thine eyes and ye shall be healed. Posit it tactfully, don't be gaudy or pretentious. Leave the possibility for subtext out of the equation. Learn to be neutral and experience the power of Pervasive Self and the implications of how you Circumvent Your Ideals.

Dare to be more than self-serving, without ever neglecting your core-character

I like the idea of dare to dream--actually I really like the idea that we can create much of our reality by how we think about things--nice hub!

Live the dream and create your reality; manifest life itself as you breath in the rift which we so often seek to trip.
