Forget the Government, You Are Your Own Worst Enemy... and How To Overthrow Yourself
People tend to focus their troubles on external forces. The government... the central banks... the next door neighbor... the boss...
What very few know is that your worst enemy is with you 24 hours per day, 7 days per week and since the very moment you were born. He/She is everywhere you go. You can't get away from him!
That person is you. Or, more succinctly, your conscious and unconscious mind.
Almost every problem you have had or have has been caused, in one way or another, by your own mind.
Once you can achieve sovereignty from your oppressive mind, however, you can become freer than you've ever imagined.
I've just recently began to gain that sovereignty and in my return to Anarchapulco I talk about how I've never felt freer in my life and how you can do it too.
You can see it here:
I also talk about the importance of not allowing the problems in the world to affect you. And, perhaps how the matrix is set up to make you feel depressed and helpless. But, you don't need to fall for its trap.
I also am reunited with my anarchist dogs after my week-long trip and return to find they are even more disobedient of authority than when I left... which is the way I like it.
Somehow listening to you feels like a detox for the brain! I don't know any other way to describe this.
Thank you @jeffberwick for your inspirational presence!
@cobalus i totally agree with you... just inspirating!! =)
More posts like this please! @jeffberwick
Agreed! It's motivating.
So all the fake interest in your money doesn't drives prices up so much that you cannot afford it and it is all just in your head? So if you ignore it and go positive thinking it just goes away?
Naaaah :P
@cobalus I could not have said it better. @jeffberwick it's so refreshing I don't understand why haven't started following you earlier. You speak a lot of the truth and it's simple but yet mind binding.
@cobalus, Steemit might be under attack! Tell us what your think > https://steemit.com/steemit/@blockrush/is-wildspark-the-steemit-killer-blockrush
You are very correct Mr. Berwick.
The things that you do to cock-block yourself are monumentally horrendous.
If you ever speak to real Tibetan monks, you find that our blockages are massive, our separation from our power vast. That, if you could, live in the moment and in your power, without these blockages, everything will flow smoothly in your life. Timing, money, food... everything.
^real talk.
The govt is the ultimate cock-block for life.
We allow ourselves to build our lives around the framework they build and its time we started letting go of it. We dont need to smash it down, we just need to step out of it.
And there is a way to do that. It requires a change in "how" we "think". Contemplate thinking critically. Contemplate taking the initiative. Using knowledge as your guide, execute your new way of thinking and become wise. Use your newfound wisdom to shed the paradigm.
Hell yeah the key to freedom is self reliance if we ate to be free then we need to not rely on a corporation for our needs we can use our skills as currenc
It's easy to fall into the trap of "what if I fail." Self-doubt and uncertainty kills our drive and ambition. Sometimes all we need is to change our pysche by knowing our downside. Nobody cares about failure. And shouldn't care too much about failing too.
The battle between you and your dreams.
She needs to leap over that cart and tiger claw that guy in the face!!!!
nice!
That explains a lot, it seems that everywhere i go, there i am. I just need to get past my emotional dependency of/on the system and realize i can do/be more.
Affirmations are often very helpful. They help your mind to lay down new tracks instead of falling into older can't-do routines you learned early in life.
It is amazing how big a difference it makes with how we talk to ourselves. It can be difficult even when we know this truth as well. It is almost a skill in itself.
It is a skill in itself. Many people call it mindfulness. And it should be taught in grade school along with meditation.
Instead of teaching them lies about president Lincoln, which is almost a waste of time, even if it was true, the schools could teach a life long skill at an age where it will make a great impact on their life.
And it is difficult. Every single time the thought creeps up, you have to reword it. Every time.
You are right on the money. Education ideas need a complete overhaul from scratch. Government should never be in charge of education or you will end up with what we have today every time.
Slavery to God is true freedom.
“No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
Matt. 6:24
Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me."
Matt. 16:24
“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
Matt. 6:31-33
I understand where you are coming from, but I do not interpret these lines like you do. (Besides King James trying to give more power to the king)
God gave you free will. Becoming a slave to god is throwing that gift back in his face.
God created the universe to provide for all of your needs. It is why the sun blasts energy at us every day. It is why the plants grow.
Lack of, doing without, are human traits. They are human doings. By man being afraid and trying to control his food supply he diminishes it for himself and others.
So, you are learning to trust in god's grace. And learning to co-create your future with god. There is no slavery. In fact, acting as a slave you stop doing the important part of why you exist. To live life; to experience the universe .
For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him
Matt. 6:24
But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”
Matt 4:4
You can interpret the Bible however you like. That's what led to the 30,000 "Christian" denominations in the US alone.
Yes, indeed. It is the egoic mind that causes people to disidentify with their true self, their souls. The effect of (sub)conscious affirmation, being positive, negative, anything, is tremendous and actually changes our physiology. Right on, mate!

yessir. your mind is your worst enemy and the sick part it - you can't hang up or turn your back on it - it's with you 24/7 like said. Key is to learn to live in harmony with it and learn how to tell it to shut the F**K up. Great Vblog
I've been saying everything you know is wrong. Only half joking. You put in much tangible words ☺️
Once you realise that you have no control over your thoughts and that your ego is like a deranged monkey throwing shit around everywhere inside your brain there's no going back. Sometimes now my own stupid thoughts make me laugh out loud, whereas before I would have taken them all too seriously.
Very True :\ Have followed you
Please, show some your past stupid thought
Yea freedom
Thanks for sharing!
Great post Jeff!
I know you don't need my little upvote. But I did upvote. Your walk and talk videos are really helping my quit drinking. And I have been to many AA meetings.
