Step eight:

Think for yourself.

Don't let anything else hijack your attention.

Think for yourself and NOT your education, your hometown, your family's opinions of your life, your bank account statement, your political party, your shoe size, what your shirt says, what's in your pockets, on your walls, in your DVD collection, your living room's theme, how much horse power your car has, your hours of volunteer work, the books you've read, the lost time you've seen a sunset, your view out your window as you fly to another family reunion, your blisters on your hands, your tv shows, what your counselor says, what your friends say; THINK FOR YOURSELF

Think of all the times you took advice or asked for it. Think of why that is. Think of why you doubt yourself when you ultimately follow your own advice in the end.

Think of why it is when someone says something that makes sense to you or doesn't at all. It is because you already felt it Already know it. It is because you think you're so alone as you surround yourself with things that you want to tell you who you are and things that want you in their image. Things that want you operate like they do so they feel safe while you're convinced that it's okay to be different and that the uncomfortable feeling in you is just your abandoned Self not accepting the change.


Think of how far from yourself you are. This isn't a truth that you are... it is just a directory.

And you are HERE amidst the friendly familiar fanfare of frenzied fallacies frightening your subconsciousness into a numb state. It is what makes you think you can no longer move from the mind state you are in. It makes you accept the environment around you. It is the ever rising water that your shackles made of your own beliefs and fears keep you from swimming away.

Think for yourself.
