We are not what we own
Ideas become material value of our time on par with the real thing. Not only do they manipulate our minds, form the construction of our reality and create our world as it is.
Every day, walking down the street, buying something, talking to someone, we are somehow faced and are under the influence of someone else's ideas. Without realizing it, we make a choice that someone made for us. It is their ideas create a vision of how we should live, what to read, who to communicate what to wear. The way of life that we have to choose. It is difficult to resist, because it is easier to follow the ready-made templates and float on the waves ready formed choice.
Try to resist these patterns and, most of all, you have to maintain the image of the eccentric, to just think with your own brain. Not all thoughts and ideas are destructive, of course. But some should be avoided because they are dictated by the culture of consumption or the desire to create a society with the same focus and ideas.
The number 1 thing. "Tools do not make you the Creator or leader".
You do not have to purchase various tools in order to begin to do something. Not necessary to buy the most advanced camera to start taking pictures. At the beginning of any path, and not very creative, it is better to assume that you have.
Start doing, not listening to arguments that many doing it and doing it until you that it is unlikely that you will make something new or interesting. This does not mean that we should not study what you do, to develop, to read. At the initial stage it is important to overcome the criticism and to do, in spite of that, to assess your level yourself, compare yourself with the masters, is gradually being tightened to the desired result. Not Gods burn pots, and only you have to understand what in the end you want to achieve through their actions.
Also the reverse situation — following the lead of consumer culture and buying some kind of tool, you automatically become the Creator. At this stage there is another idea that should be avoided.
Thing No. 2. "We are not what we own".
Even Erich Fromm in his book "to have or to be" revealed popular idea that owning something makes us a person, but under the influence of modern society we often forget about it. Your car, apartment, your clothes, your job is not you. You is what remains if you remove all of it. You are kinda your own tool for achieving goals.
Remembering the period of the great Depression 20 years in the United States, not to mention a large number of suicides that took place in that time. A huge number of people to commit suicide, wasting capital and savings.
The idea is very simple — we often think that if we have something that are valued by society as a luxury, it makes us better, increases status and prestige. This is partly true, but if you have to take it, will you be the worse?
Turning to popular resources you see a way of life that seems attractive: bright, colorful pictures and pictures of the world that exist only in the mind. This is just an idea that serves as a wrapper to the real world. There is no shame in the fact that you are not rich, not prestigious, are not fashionable.
Much more important is an honest assessment of yourself and of reality, morality. Think will do you better than a regular photo on the iPhone in the mirror? That's what you want to say to the world, this is exactly what you yourself want to show it if you see this yourself?
You is what remains when you take the camera from the mirror. You are daily difficulties and worries, laziness, lack of sleep and the struggle with himself, a sense of not knowing where to go, and fears, a thousand rubles to pay and the unpaid loan. The images need to those who sell them. No matter how much time we could save, just by showing each other and ourselves.
Thing No. 3. "Study, get married, work in the office."
There is no criteria for assessing the success of life, these indicators can not simply be in nature. Most importantly — if you're happy the way you live. If Yes, then you already answered your own question. When we took over the culture of Pepsi-Cola, we forgot to learn respect for work and different professions. The prestige of the work is ephemeral and sophisticated as any advertising.
Thing number 4. "The replay with their own exceptionalism."
In his pseudoindependence and self-development we don't want to see others. Our planet is spinning on the swollen ego, which squeezed each other like giant balloons. The only thing that unites us is a belief in their own uniqueness, genius and the fact that it allows us to do and forgive ourselves everything. Your personality doesn't excuse your actions, it is impossible to constantly justify themselves by saying that "I am." Otherwise, we will collapse our society, crack it, destroy all the foundations and are unlikely to create something new.
