My brother,
@naval
, once said to me: "you're perfect. Your problem is that you just don't know it."
Took me years to get it. I'm still getting it.
So, I say to you: You're perfect. Your problem is that you just don't know it.
I hope it takes you less time to get it than me :)

Yoga in a nutshell:
1/ Dressing the part is 70% of Yoga.
2/ Sprinkling words like "Universal consciousness" and "spiritual" is 20% of Yoga.
3/ Refusing to eat any food that builds muscle is 9% of Yoga.
4/ The stretchy bendy poses thing is 1% of Yoga.

Never ever envy someone their success. You have no idea the price they paid (or will pay). There always is a price.
Instead, use them to motivate yourself. And be ready to pay the price.

Neo wakes from the Matrix into another Matrix. He figures this out and wakes into...another Matrix. Waking into Matrix after Matrix, like endless babushka dolls, until, in the end, full on awakening where he realizes he is the Matrix itself.
That was the game all along...

1/ While back, a friend had a chance to lick a toad that would make him see God. He’s never drank or smoked anything in his life.
The experience he’d been offered was thousands of years old. Practiced by indigenous tribes. Everyone I know who’d done it was better for it.
