A MAN OF COMMITMENT

The problem for modern man - He has too many choices.
Too many options...

​Instant gratification presenting itself from all sides.
He lives his life with a “just the tip” mentality. Holding fear and aversion around fully immersing himself into something. Into anything.
Insidious FOMO.(fear of missing out)
He starts everything, but masters nothing.
He knows something about everything, but knows nothing about something.
He hits and quits life, frequently - Throwing away his precious life force, without ever finding his true ground.
He flips and flops - Assuming the choice matters. He places all importance on the choice.
Any man who has done the work to a certain level, knows the choice doesn’t matter. It’s never mattered.
What does matter...is the COMMITMENT to the choice.
A man who learns how to fully commit to something, while accepting the day-in and day-outness of his slow-burn journey to mastery...comes to purpose.
Through constant weathering, he arises illuminated and stronger than before.
He comes to meaning.
He comes to wisdom.
He comes to deep service to that which he has committed his life to. His spirit to. His soul to.
He feels, profoundly. And he is felt, profoundly.
He sees his fellow brothers, perpetually distracted, in childs-pose, absolutely oblivious to how tranquilized they have become. Playing in the shit-pitt.
He feels their intended gift of sharpness...blunted, by a society who has no understanding of how to support him in his healthy power.
It lands heavy in his spirit.
All he wants, is to see his fellow man put the fucking toys down for a moment and wake the fuck up, so we can be in this together, as one powerful unit. Powered by love, driven by purpose.
And your purpose, brother...is commitment. To something. To anything.
As long as it is of higher order, COMMIT.
The problem for modern man, and why he is so distracted, immature and untrustworthy - is his absolute lack of stable, immersive commitment.
You want to do even deeper spiritual work to expose all of your insecurities and fragilities? You wanna see all the ways you tap-out of life when challenge and tension comes knocking?
Find something.
Choose it.
Commit to it.
Stay committed to it.
Through commitment is where you find yourself. It’s where you FEEL purpose. Then, you can stop looking for it, because purpose doesn’t live outside. It’s not a thing, it’s a feeling.
Your sense of purpose, is discovered through commitment.
Much love,
Chris
