[Part I] The Solution Is Through Resolution — Introduction [Short]
Over many, many years I discovered that the realization of our full human potential along our paths of ambition, is inevitably going to be accompanied by a form of internal resolution. Whatever we have inside of us must find a harmonic pathway through our being, crystallizing from vision to action, into our lives. Our habits, thinking, ideals, skills, and true nature all resolving into a coherent structure that distills our internal visions into reality.
I do not perceive this in a metaphysical way (although it might intrinsically be) but rather a transcendent psychological phenomenon.
All the time we see people in the world lock in, get their lives together, and achieve stability, purpose, and success that clearly had eluded them. We see a person and say that “They got their lives together.” Yes, they did. But what did they actually do?
In truth, nobody knows. Nobody knows the truth of consciousness, of the human spirit, its heights or its depths. It is as if there is a switch deep inside some people, that they must reach a place of utter destitution for them to find that room in their hearts, and make the point to pull the lever.
Once that lever is pulled, the false architecture of the Ego (or Shadow, or their False Self) crumbles around them. What they once saw as a glorious, beautiful, structure is shown in ghastly light to be a mausoleum, a temple of the dead, that falls as they walk unharmed from the rubble. Broken, weak, bruised and battered — but no longer empty. The return of a fierce light in their eyes that had long faded, but a will stronger than ever before.
If I were to intellectualize the process, I would say: They aligned their habits with their desires; transfigured and hardened their beliefs (especially regarding their will, intent, capabilities, potential, true nature and what they want); all while channelling their emotions productively — whatever they are feeling — curtailing their thoughts into alignment as well.
Some people see God in this shift. Maybe they are right. Personally, I think that God has done enough for me, and I don’t want to burden the divine with anything less than what is truly outside of control. I have been given this mind, body, and heart. Protected at every phase. And now the stage is set. Thus it is my belief that this process can be reduced to an effective system.
I believe human transformation, performance, and evolution is a psychological phenomenon of internal alignment between vision, ideals, habits, words, actions, and emotion. A process that we can systematically, and intentionally hack, to move through the blockages within us to unhindered self expression and mastery.
