Good Things

Face The Music About Real Prosperity (And Why Your Ferrari Means Jack Squat)

Let's be honest...

Most people are chasing the wrong damn thing.

They think prosperity is about the car in the driveway, the zeros in the bank account, or the Instagram likes on their "living my best life" posts.

But believe it or not:

All that stuff? It's about as fulfilling as a gas station burrito at 3 AM. Sure, it fills a hole temporarily... but you're gonna feel like garbage later.

Real Prosperity Isn't What You Think It Is

Here's what nobody tells you (because they are too busy peddling empty promises):

Real prosperity is when the good stuff in your life actually ALIGNS with who you truly are.

Not who your parents wanted you to be.

Not who your high school guidance counselor said you should be.

Not even who your spouse thinks you are.

I'm talking about your higher self - that version of you that knows what you're really here to do.

When you're aligned with THAT?

That's when the magic happens.

That's when you wake up energized instead of hitting snooze seventeen times.

That's when work stops feeling like work and starts feeling like... well, like you're finally doing what you were put on this planet to do.

The, Hidden, Toxicity

Now here's where it gets interesting (and a little dark)...

Most people think the opposite of their higher purpose is just their ego running the show.

And yeah, ego's a problem. It'll have you making decisions based on what looks good rather than what IS good.

But there's something worse.

Way worse.

It's called chaos. Entropy. Darkness.

Sounds dramatic, right?

But stick with me...

When you're NOT aligned with your higher purpose, you're not just "a little off track."

You're in full-blown disconnection mode.

It's like your internal GPS is screaming "RECALCULATING" every five seconds, but you keep driving anyway because... well, you've already come this far, right?

This is where things get messy:
  • You feel scattered and confused (but you tell everyone you're "busy")
  • Nothing seems to work no matter how hard you try
  • You're successful on paper but miserable in reality
  • Every day feels like you're pushing a boulder uphill... in quicksand... while someone's shooting at you
That's not just "having a bad day."

That's entropy, baby.

That's what happens when you're living someone else's definition of success while your soul is slowly dying inside.


So What's The Point?

Here's what I want you to understand:

You can have all the money in the world and still be broke.

Not financially broke.

Spiritually broke.

Purposefully broke.

The kind of broke that no amount of retail therapy can fix.

Real prosperity - the kind that actually matters - comes from doing things that align with your higher self.

It's about building a life where:

  • Your work energizes you instead of draining you
  • Your relationships support who you really are
  • Your daily actions reflect your deepest values
  • You're not constantly fighting against yourself
And here's the beautiful part:

When you get THIS right, the money usually follows anyway.

Not because you're "manifesting" or whatever...

But because people can FEEL when someone's operating from their true purpose.

They're drawn to it.

They want to be part of it.

They'll pay for it.

The Nitty-Gritty

Stop chasing prosperity that looks good on paper but feels like death on the inside.

Start asking yourself: "Does this align with who I really am?"

Because at the end of the day, you can either build a life that LOOKS successful...

Or you can build one that actually IS.

Your call.

But choose wisely.

Because time's ticking, and that chaos and entropy I mentioned?

It's patient. It'll wait for you to keep ignoring your higher purpose.

And trust me...

You don't want to see what happens when you wait too long.
