Here's how to earn peace
Because it sure as hell won't be given for free...
Cru’s Letter
Make yourself sit in silence for a little while and you’re gonna notice that there’s a very simple path to moments of peace.
When you disconnect from the constant scrolling, the harsh comparison, and the overwhelm of what everyone ELSE thinks, there’s an emotional quietness that feels right.
The thing is though, you’ll likely forget really fast because the fear of missing out is damn near engrained in us now.
So what are you supposed to do?
Reread the first line of this newsletter…
Peace does not come without work. Comfort does not exist without discomfort. These desirable states are the result of something because real value in this life is earned.
So MAKE yourself sit in silence because for most of us in this modern society, it’s not going to be easy.
When I sit down for the famous No-Phone Dinner every night, it somehow takes discipline which is funny to think because what the heck did people do before our advanced forms of distraction even existed?
They embraced the silence.
I like to think my awareness of these things in my own life is very in-tune and I’ll still find myself bouncing my leg or rushing to eat just to get back to being “busy.”
This is where the discipline to do “nothing” is quite a hard thing to achieve but how else do we earn peace?
There’s only one way.
Take the deep breath. Stare at the wall. Eat dinner with no distractions. Treat yourself well. Know what’s going on with you. You got this.
