Human beings. We are a highly elevated animal species, or at least that’s how we would like to think of ourselves. We have our own civilized jungle or habitat called “society”.
The only difference between our habitat and the wild animal one is that we have rules and laws to protect us from each other. Also, another difference between us and the animal kingdom, is that we have rules and laws to protect the weak ones.
You might wonder, who are “The weak ones”? The weak are the unmotivated ones, the lazy ones, the ones who expect others to take care of them.
The weak are the ones who don’t do anything (or enough) to achieve their goals and complain There are two types of humans:
TYPE B (which are most people). These people are called apathetic drones. They wake up every morning and make a conscious (and subconscious) decision to give their powers away. We all have powers; however, most people wake up every morning and choose to give them away.
You have the power to choose your (healthy) meals. You have the power to choose your (sane) mate, your (great) job, your (positive) friends, your everything. You have the power to choose how you’re going to feel that day (of course unless you are sick). You have the power to choose a healthy lifestyle that will help you live a long and quality life.
You have the power to be happy because you also have the power to choose everything that will eventually make you happy. Every morning you wake up with all these powers and what do most people do? They choose to give them away. Immediately as they wake up they start blaming their cravings, their bad habits, their work, their mate, their boss, their family, their culture, their society and eventually THEIR-WEAK-SELF.
You will start blaming all these circumstances for everything that happens to you. For failing to conduct a healthy lifestyle, for failing to have a good job, for failing to make more money, for failing to be in a healthy relationship, for failing to lose weight, for failing to be happy, for failing to be positive, for all the choices YOU MADE.
By this point you have no powers left. You have become an apathetic drone. You are powerless. In the real animal kingdom, you DIE. In a healthy ecosystem you become food for someone more powerful and stronger. These are the people that populate our planet. It’s sad, but it’s true.
On the other hand, there are TYPE A human beings, the ones who decide (choose) to keep their power. The Elite human beings. You’re not born one, you become one. These are the people who wake up every day and are aware of how cravings are going to influence their choices and how other people are going to try to override their decisions. They are the elite human beings with a superior state of consciousness. They are the people who take control of their destiny.
They are aware of everything that is happening with them and around them. Type A people are aware of their emotional and physical state at all time. They are the ones who take full responsibilities of their life. The ones that have the power upon themselves.
The Elite humans have a different way of thinking. They are the superior human beings.
You see, when you are born, you are pure. You are powerless. You don’t know any better, you’re like a sponge. The minute you interact with another human being (adults in most cases), you start changing who you are. You will continue to change based on your environment, parents, culture, society and basically everything you come into contact with.
By the time you reach adulthood, in most cases, you have acquired lots of disorders. You have become an adult with a lot of mental deficiencies. How many times have you cached yourself saying “This is who I am”.
It’s usually when you’re trying to accept a bad habit or anything that you “think” shapes your identity. Guess what? That is NOT WHO YOU ARE. Deep down, before everything was placed upon you; you are a different person. In most cases, a better self. It’s your responsibility and desire/passion to discover who you really are; In other words, to discover your best potential.
Now I want you to take a close look at your own self.
Do you let cravings/bad habits control your life?
Are you in charge of your emotional and physical aspect of your life?
Do you take full responsibilities for what happens to you and how you feel?
Are you an ELITE Human Being or an Apathetic Drone?
If you were living in an animal kingdom, would you be a victim or a predator?
Would you be DEAD or ALIVE?
