The interesting thing about clarity is that you can’t really force it.
You can, of course, put yourself in risky situations and try to simulate the clearness of thought that comes with real, dangerous, existential decision points, but even then your body adapts to those “stakes” eventually.
You can alternatively separate yourself, isolate, go on a vision quest, etc but the moment you return to normal life is the moment your body and mind try to convince themselves that the clarity driven impulse for change was actually the aberration.
The desire to change was “actually” the temporary whim, not your current life path you realized was out of line with your spirit. The path of least resistance will always want to redraw itself.
Losing things permanently, or at least legitimately feeling the potential of imminent loss, is the only snow globe shake that makes you see the dust and sparkle of your life in full relief.
Everything else, even a life altering gain, is reversible. 3 replies
