Hacking The Codex Episode 2

This is a continuation of the first episode. Here, we discuss some myths and misconceptions we tend to believe when it comes to how we view ourselves. This episode also begins to jump into various ways to solve several of those misconceptions.

This is Hacking the Codex,

The field guide for changing your source code.

What are the ramifications on your life going forward if you don't fix it?

Life is funny.

Of all the things that happen in life,

The one thing that is not tolerated is stagnation.

You can look around you in any given direction and see that life has a very unique way of continuing motion.

Let's take death for example.

To most people,

Death is the end,

At least for the physical body.

When we die,

Our bodies are no longer animated and that is the end of us as a human being.

For life however,

This is nowhere near the end.

There are a whole slew of things that happen after you die.

Millions and millions of organisms go to work and begin to break down your body almost from the very instant the last breath passes from your lips.

The myriad of miracle processes that are created by your passing is proof that life does not stop.

So why should life treat this problem you're trying to solve any differently?

Have you ever heard the phrase,

Just because you ignore it doesn't mean it goes away?

This is a very true statement.

Ignoring your problem only causes the problem to compound itself.

Life will not let a thing stagnate.

Whether it is positive or negative,

Your negative problem will continue to be negative and grow until you do something about it.

Not only will the ripples on the surface begin to amplify in magnitude,

But so will the disturbances created by the problem beneath the surface.

You cannot ignore something and hope it goes away.

The sooner you can address a problem,

The easier it is to correct.

The longer you wait,

The more difficult it becomes because life has allowed that problem to grow beyond your expectations.

In the last half of your ethereal codex,

You should have listed what you believe some of the ramifications are that your problem creates.

In order to understand what this problem will do to you and those around you have left unchecked,

You need to multiply that by a power of 10.

Like I said earlier,

If you do not address it,

Life will see to it that it grows and grows until it commands your attention.

You should take the next few minutes and jot down your predictions about what will happen if you leave this problem unchecked.

Don't be scared to think big because life is not scared to think big.

No matter what you think might happen,

Life has a peculiar way of slapping you in the face and showing you that the problem was way worse than you thought.

Even if you don't have the ability to see that far into the future or to foresee what might be some of the ramifications of your actions or lack thereof,

It may be important for you to do this exercise anyway.

As we move through the stages of this book,

You'll be asked on numerous occasions to exercise your imagination,

Not only for figuring out how things may turn out,

But also for visualization purposes when it comes to things like meditation and setting up the proper imagery that you should be playing in your head.

What will be the ramifications if you do fix it?

Now let's talk about something good for once in this first portion of the book.

What happens if you do something to solve this problem?

You look at the ethereal codex and decide that you're going to go through with the appropriate steps to not only stop taking the actions you are taking that have a negative effect on your life,

But you follow through with the advice in this field guide and find yourself in better than expected circumstances.

Like I said earlier,

Life has a peculiar way of slapping you in the face and showing you that the problem is way worse than you thought,

But it also has a funny way of giving you more than you asked for when it comes to positive outcomes.

You should take a few moments and focus strictly on visualizing what might come from these positive outcomes.

What do you stand to gain?

What things will be made better in your life?

If this particular bad goes away,

What flows into your life to fill that void?

These are just a few of the questions that you can ask yourself while performing this exercise,

But once again don't be afraid to think big.

You never know what you'll get until you ask for it.

Section 2.

You are not supposed to be this way.

Part 1.

No one is born with an emotional belief system or an inner dialogue.

Oftentimes as we go through life,

There is a small piece of codex that is inserted into your EOS that should never be there.

That piece of codex reads like this,

I'm never going to be blank because of blank.

I guess that's just the way it's supposed to be.

This one little piece of codex is the largest crock of shit in your entire ethereal operating system.

It somehow makes people believe that they are predestined to be a very specific way and have absolutely zero control over the direction of their life.

If I was ever given the opportunity to meet the person that installed this codex into so many people,

I would punch that motherfucker dead square in the nose.

This garbage codex has been passed down from generation to generation and has done more harm for the human species in my opinion than any con man behind a pulpit could ever do.

We need to start changing and erasing that piece of codex immediately.

Let's start now,

Shall we?

As you travel through this book,

I will undoubtedly on numerous occasions tell you about how magnificent of a creature you are.

This is going to be the first of one of those statements.

It goes something like this,

You are the most important person in the history of the universe.

Every star that has been born and every solar system that has died has all been part of this miraculous dance the universe has been doing for over 13 billion years just to create you.

Even though the universe had to exert upon itself tremendous and miraculous forces like gravity,

Light,

Explosions,

And a myriad of other celestial events to make you,

You in and of yourself are a walking talking miracle.

You are an ethereal being that cannot be touched yet somehow you manage to pilot a bone-filled meat sack that is magically controlled by a gelatinous pile of goo in the center of your skull.

You require so many of the universe's resources just to keep you alive like water,

Light,

A perfectly balanced mixture of very specific types of air.

You even have to consume other matter into your meat sack to keep it functioning properly.

That is just the basic overview.

You still need so many more things to keep this meat sack working properly.

The craziest part of it all is any one of thousands of things required to keep you alive can also kill you at any moment if mixed in properly.

In fact you exist in a universe specifically designed to kill you at any second.

Yet still you are here.

The gelatinous pile of goo encased in your skull is one of the most brilliant forms of intelligence known to the universe.

Since we don't know anyone else in the universe other than those inhabitants of this earth it is safe to say that you have the most developed mind anywhere.

You are capable of commanding this meat sack that you pilot to perform tremendous feats that no other species on the planet can do.

You channel your own internal energy in the form of thoughts which are then converted from energy into actual things.

Energy is converted into matter.

Your thoughts are converted into material things.

If you don't believe you're a walking miracle yet hold your fucking horses.

If you live in America and reside in one of the many states that are fortunate enough to participate in one of the many lotteries you are aware of what Powerball is.

You understand that the chances of winning one of the major jackpots on any given day is about one in 290 million yet every few weeks we have a winner.

People will consistently say that the statistics of winning the lottery are astronomical and you're more likely to get struck by lightning and attacked by a shark at the same time then to win Powerball.

First somebody always wins Powerball eventually.

Second when was the last time you heard of somebody getting struck by lightning while getting attacked by a shark?

Now I understand that people see playing the lottery as a waste of time in fact most people don't expect to win when they play.

They're playing for the emotion and the hope that it brings into their lives regardless of how financially foolish this is but let's look at some more drastic odds.

Though this number is constantly rehashed and recalculated the general mathematical consensus is that the odds of you being alive with as many factors as we can conceptualize added into the equation is one in ten to the power of two million six hundred and eighty five thousand.

That's a number so big they stopped writing it out and figured it would be easier to write it as a mathematical equation.

You wouldn't want to put that many zeros on a page.

Assuming you started counting when you were three years old that number is so high you would die before you even got close to finishing counting it.

You and ten of your buddies couldn't count that high in your entire lives.

Sure does make those chances for winning a lottery seem a bit more realistic huh?

Knowing all of this why would you let someone else dictate what you think and who you are?

Regardless of what anyone else says you are a numerical miracle.

Other people should have no input on what you do with your miracle.

Karen from accounting isn't any better of a human being than you are.

Just because your best friend Phil needs to tear you down to put himself in a better state of mind doesn't mean that he is right.

I saw something amazing the other day in the form of a meme and it hit home really hard.

It said don't take criticism from people you wouldn't ask advice from.

You are beyond fortunate to have this life.

What others think is unimportant.

There are about seven and a half billion people walking around on this planet right now.

Maybe more than that by the time you're reading this field guide.

In all honesty every single one of us is just trying to figure it out.

Even the people you look at that have had great success in mastering their mental states and their financial states are still doing the same thing you're doing.

They're just trying to figure it out.

They may have found a much more effective path than the one you are currently on but that doesn't mean that they weren't once in your shoes.

No one has ever come out of the womb ready to earn a billion dollars.

No one has ever graduated from high school or college with their emotional self so in check that they don't struggle at least a little bit.

You have to accept the fact that being happy,

Being great,

Being successful requires work.

If the other people in your life aren't putting in the work to achieve their visions or versions of that goal are they really worth listening to?

People are just people.

Even though they are miraculous meat sacks just like you they are still just trying to figure it out.

So the most important voice that you should be listening to is your own.

When it comes to the value you place on who you are as a human being no one else gets to set that value.

You and you alone are responsible for dictating your value and your worth.

Now that you understand this let's work on changing the tone of the voice that you were listening to.

In order to do that we need to understand what components create the voice that you hear inside of your head.

That means we need to understand what it takes to make you.

Not the physical you but the ethereal you.

The core programming of your ethereal operating system.

The mixture of you.

No matter who you are or where you're from the essence of you is composed of multiple things.

There are various pieces to being a human and how those pieces influence you ultimately creates your ethereal codex.

In this chapter we're going to discuss what those things are in order to help you further identify any issues that you may be looking to change in the latter portion of this book.

Just know that each and every single one of these pieces that composes you is changeable and none of them by themselves equal the entirety of your personality.

The first quarter.

Environment.

One quarter of who you are is based and built upon your environment.

As you have grown throughout the years on this planet your environment has shifted and changed.

When you were a child your environment was school and home life.

There were mixtures of relationships with your younger friends perhaps extracurricular activities if you were fortunate enough to be involved in them.

As you grew older your environment may have turned into more of a socially scholastic environment like college.

Your home life started to have less and less influence and your social life moved in to fill that void.

Even later in life you left college and began your career in the workforce.

This environment deals less with social interaction and more with the hierarchy of common workplaces.

Further on in that portion of your life you may have married,

Started a family.

Those things will ultimately have an effect on your environment as well.

No matter what stage of your life you are in your environment is one quarter of your ethereal codex.

As you transition from one phase of your life into the next your previous environmental settings will have installed their own pieces of codex into your EOS.

On a fundamental level your environment is where you sleep,

Work,

Live and participate in any activities.

But there's another level to your environment and that is the people that occupy your environment.

If you have positive people occupying your environment then you probably have a ton of positive input coming in but if you have negative people that are occupying your environment then more than likely you're going to have a bunch of negative input come in.

It's incredibly important for us to pay attention to our environment and who we surround ourselves with when we are attempting to make a change in our life.

Oftentimes people fail when they attempt to make any sort of change in their life because they don't alter their environment.

Let's take a druggie for example.

If you're trying to quit doing drugs you don't hang out at the drug dealers house you have to distance yourself from people that do drugs.

This is true for gambling and other poor habits as much as it is for stress or poor eating habits or any other thing that you're trying to change about yourself.

Not only do you have to want to change but your environment has to be conducive to that change.

If you're not taking necessary steps to restructure your environment to make it more suitable to that change that you are seeking then you're setting yourself up for failure.

Take a long hard look at your physical environment.

Is your job stressful?

Is it the kind of stress that you can ignore and power through or is it the kind of stress that is all-consuming?

If your work environment is so stressful that it is affecting your health and your state of mind it might be time to look for a new job.

If your work environment is consuming far too many of your hours and not compensating you properly then that's not a job that's close to slavery and you should start looking for a new job.

However the same can be said for your living environment.

If your house is messy and cluttered and that makes you feel uncomfortable or claustrophobic then one of the habits that you need to change is how often you clean your house.

You need to make sure that that environment is conducive to a good mindset.

Remember your environment is one quarter of your ethereal codex.

Managing the people in your environment is just as important as managing the environment itself.

As you're getting ready to launch headfirst into this journey of changing something about yourself you really need to evaluate those around you to find out if they are conducive to your environment.

Do they lend themselves to your change that you are attempting to make or do they hinder that change?

Are they the kind of people that will attempt to knock your building down so they're building is taller?

If someone in your life has a habit of projecting their negativity onto you regardless of whether it is purposeful or not then that person is not going to be conducive to your change.

Now I know what you're saying,

I can't just go around and throw all my friends out of my life and that's somewhat true.

To that I say a thing is only as important as the attention you put on it even if that thing is a person.

So if this person in your life that is adding negativity to you is someone that must remain in your life as in you can't get rid of them then you might need to change the level of attention that you are giving to that person.

Sometimes it's best not to banish someone from your life.

Sometimes it might just be beneficial to send them to the other room and turn down their volume.

Remember anyone that has your ear has your attention and we don't want to give attention to the negative things in our environment unless it is to correct or change them.
