The World Really Has No Clue About What’s In Your Head

Seriously, nobody really knows what’s in your head — only you. Only you truly understand what you are doing with your life. Only you truly and intimately understand your projects, ideas, thoughts, and insights. Only you fully grasp what you’re seeking; what you’re trying to do; what you’re focusing on.

The aforementioned paragraph helps remind us how much people really don’t know, but think they know about what it is you’re doing. Because in life, everyone thinks that they know what’s best for you.

Ha, what’s best for the project that “you” are working on. What’s the best way for “you” to think. And what course of action “you” should be taking.

And guess what? That’s okay. It’s okay to allow people to think about what’s best for you. Fine. Let them. Let them tell you what you should be doing with your projects, business, ideas, etc. No problem. It’s happens everyday.

But, if you let people dictate your moves, your thoughts, and the development of your projects, then you’re in trouble. That’s a BIG problem.

So many times people begin to lose trust in what they are doing simply because they are influenced, forced, and sometimes even coerced into taking a new tack — into doing something totally different than what “you” planned — than the direction that your heart was leading you in.

You let this person mold you, shape you, and play with you like you’re a piece of silly putty. Maybe it wasn’t just one person. Maybe it was many. And now you end up doing something completely different all because you didn’t follow your heart, you followed your head on behalf of what other people had to say about your project. That’s a weak situation, dude.

Don’t be silly putty and mold into what the world wants you to be shaped like. Stand up strong for what “you” believe is right for “you.” Protect your projects by following through with how you see best fit.

Because at the end of the day, no one in the entire world is going to have the panoramic view of what you are thinking, such as you do. They’ll always have the short view… and no matter how much they think they are right about what it is that you should be doing, just absorb it, register it, and if it makes sense to “you,” then incorporate it… but never let it destroy what “you” feel is right.

Trust your heart.

About David Askaripour

I've been thinking about life, existence, and truth for as long as I could remember. When I was about 7 I remember getting a headache trying to figure out who created God...and if someone created him, then who create him? I love investigating and testing, taking nothing for truth that outside my direct experience. At the age of 12, I started my own candy selling business; it grew so large that the principal ended up closing me down (but that was just the beginning...) Through my videos and articles, I share my journey with the world.

    Nice post, David. I think it is also important to point out, that sometimes it is important for other people to influence you. They could potentially have a really great idea.

    Absolutely, I totally live by that. In fact, that’s what Mind Petals is all about — people sharing ideas, sparking minds, and inspiring each other. But there’s a fundamental difference between being influenced by someone and totally changing your ideas around only because someone else thinks it’s right, when, in fact, you don’t.
