I have discovered that there is a Broadcast4Reps community in game. So you get psychological help and express yourself. That is absolutely necessary and fantastic. But what if there was also a thread for people who needed something similar to that even if remotely related? The reason why I think it is needed is that over the decades in EVE and real life, I’ve come across so many people so disempowered that crave such information, but so confused and lost that they zig while the info zags, unknowingly evading the info. Also, the best way to learn something truly is to teach others. So I took the initiative on my break from EVE and initiated a Self-Help thread.
This thread serves as an uplifting thread and a guide/discussion on to how success mechanics & the universal truths work. A guide/discussion, within forum rules, for those who seek to be better in life sucess and maybe in EVE success within the limits of integrity.
You may stop reading right here if that is not your cup of tea.
This thread also has to do with the Casuality topic of Metaphysics sub-branch of Philosophy more than with anything else. In order to have a coherent guide and healthy discussion, the parallel/related branches of this concept and their higher tiers shouldn’t be ignored as well. However, it should be clear that we’re going to be discussing the mechanics and methods behind the usage for success as well. The mentioning/providing of sources used, and how it has been applied to life and EVE is strongly encouraged. Otherwise, the entire discussion would be only little more than “gym bro science”.
So I’ll go first.
According to the late philosopher Earl Nightingale, the definition of success is " the progressive realization of a worthy ideal , or goal"
In order to do that, we first need to take full responsibility of our lives.
- Assuming the responsibility
That means there is no blaming the suicide ganker who ganked us in space, the guy who bought one of the 512 HyperNet nodes and won, the server tick that prevented us from cloaky warping at the gate and as a result getting tackled and losing all expo loot and all the other IRL equivalents. The reason for this is that if we don’t assume responsibility of creating our own reality, then how can we change it consciously? We cannot affect what we do not own. So we need to get rid of excuses in order to get results. We cannot blame the external conditions for that, since most things in EVE and RL is like Rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock game where everything has a counter-solution. So we need to transfer the power over to ourselves, rather than giving power to others. Besides, there is a famous quote on the web about it that is food for thought material:
“Imagine being bitten by a snake and instead of trying to help yourself heal and recover from the poison, you try to catch the snake, to find out the reason it bit you to prove to it that you didn’t deserve that.”
After that is done, we can move onto the next step…
- What you put out is what you get back
This means in simplest terms that if we do good, we get the good returned back to us eventually. If we do bad, then karma bites us in the behind eventually. That also means we get what we think, talk, feel, imagine, and act about. Those all, except the “feelings” part are the things we have control over anyway.
I’ll not go into much detail here now, as the OP is getting very long and the time is way past midnight, but that idea is also called, stated in the previous paragraph, is part of the Law of Attraction, if one wishes to call it so. The Law of Attraction CAN work by those principles, but there’s also the attracting into life by default.
In order to utilize the LOA(Law of Attraction) consciously, one can follow some mechanical steps as follows:
Step 1: Vision
Visualize what you want.
Step 2: Desire
Be intensely excited about what you are visualizing.
Step 3: Belief
Believe what you desire is possible to manifest.
Step 4: Acceptance
Accept your belief and your ability to manifest it as being true.
Step 5: Intent
Want and intend are different. You must have the intention to manifest your desire.
Step 6: Action
Act and behave like your desire has already manifested.
Step 7: Allowance
Detach from the outcome. You have to be intense in your desire without any expectation that it manifests.
