Consciously, irrevocably ascending above a lifestyle trajectory that was set into motion during unconsciousness is probably the most difficult thing you will ever take on.
I am talking about “leaving the matrix” and ascending above the “default” or “expected path” that most people fall into.
Examples:
- Leaving the employee level of the game to become a self-sustaining entrepreneur
- Transitioning your taxable income from 40% to 0% through multifamily real estate
- Losing 250 pounds to win a top physique competition and marry a Maxim model
- Becoming a deca-millionaire and owning three villas after growing up in poverty
- Creating an off-grid life, declaring sovereignty, running a farm and retreat center
Each of these are decade-long, life-defining projects. Each will require you to morph into a completely new person.
And, you’re going against the current. The world does not want you to do these things.
It’s prepared to smack you down – if not financially, then spiritually – at multiple stops as you demonstrate commitment to, and progress on, the path of breaking away.
The world wants to use you like a battery. It wants to plug you in and keep you too busy to pop up and do anything about it.
Chances are, you’re not going to change the world. But you can change your world.
The paradox is that such a task requires understanding the way the world works, at large, then deciding to be different.
That’s what breaking away from the matrix means. Deviating.
You’ll set off silent alarm bells when you do, so be ready for the kickback.
I escaped in my own way in 2018 when I had my awakening, going on to create New Earth Knowledge to spread my message.
I began to realize that, despite my own expansion in pursuit of higher levels of freedom, the world around me was not changing. It retained its standards, structures, rules, laws, legislations, regulations, plus inevitable consequences for violating or neglecting to keep up.
I was still subject to all of these things even though I’d raised my vibration to such a level where it felt like all of them should just… you know… somehow… go away.
The matrix is persistent. It’s incessant. And it will cave in on you if you neglect your responsibilities.
But, the matrix is also malleable. Part of awakening is realizing that you have the ability to bend it to your will.
You can circumvent and shape and make and mold your own experience.
Conscious creators think outside of the box that society wants everyone else to stay bound and shackled by.
They take the phrase “you create your own reality” literally.
They write their own script. They aren’t afraid to obliterate expectations or creatively manipulate things to their advantage.
But it requires a stern refusal to abide by the world’s rules. You must not be willing to accept the path that was laid out for you by school or society.
What I’m talking about, here, is glitching the matrix.
The problem is that the system is programmed to avoid glitches in its OS.
So, to do it requires a lot of research. It requires looking in places most people ignore. It requires studying the status quo. It means uncovering tiny crevices for weeks or months just to be able to pull one string when the time is right.
You have to be like Russell Crowe’s character in the 2010 movie The Next Three Days. If you haven’t seen it, go watch it. It’s a good metaphor for the disposition you need to have about making this happen.
The most important subjects to learn to leave the matrix are: taxes, investing and credit, capital markets, social engineering, computing and coding, psychology and sales, M&A, systems thinking, game theory, and networking.
Your vision – whatever it is for you – must become your central focus in life. You have to eat, breathe, and sleep this mission, sacrificing all else.
You have to put “all money in” as Nipsey Hussle proclaimed, and “be willing to take it to any length necessary,” as my favorite fighter Caleb Plant used to say.
Cover your apartment walls with maps, pictures, plans, directions, to-do lists, itineraries, and more. You have to live inside your vision.
Then you get to work on planning, enacting, tweaking, and progressing, little by little.
Manipulating variables to create a desired outcome is not dark magic or self-serving. It’s just knowledge + directed energy. I call this aligned action.
If you feel bad creating your own reality within the confines of what’s sometimes been called a prison planet – referring to the fact that you must work to live on Earth – you will remain stuck in the world’s silent trap for the duration of your lifetime.
The fact is, the only option to avoid life as a cog in the global machine is to orient yourself (accept that you are in the matrix), learn how the game works, choose to “get in the game,” and start building your own reality.
In the end, you can not escape the matrix. You have to go through it, then ascend above it.
