S01E19 - Beware of the pigeon | Inevitably Great

Finally free from thoughts

Imagine a world where everyone knew that pigeons could really affect your life. People believed that encountering a pigeon would completely derail their potential and performance. In such a world, we'd spend a lot of time and energy trying to avoid pigeons, develop techniques to deal with them, and even buy equipment to protect ourselves. But now imagine if someone could show you that pigeons are just birds with no real impact on your life, that they eventually fly away, having no connection to your potential or performance. This revelation would free you from the unnecessary efforts of managing pigeons, allowing you to focus entirely on your life and goals. This metaphor mirrors how we often treat our thoughts. We believe negative thoughts can affect our performance and spend time trying to manage them. But once we understand that thoughts, like pigeons, are just passing and have no real power over us, we can redirect our energy towards living fully. Realizing the nature of thoughts can liberate us, making our lives richer and more vibrant.
