    What I'm saying is more immediate and goes a lot deeper. It's moreso linked with authenticity rather than lack of ambition (although lack of ambition could be a byproduct). It's about completely giving up the idea of who you are and who you want to be, thus allowing true growth to occur. It's about getting in touch with YOU, and not be a fake.

    Yea i definitely know what you mean, but i feel like that requires a state of no ego, as ego would pick that up as "now i can be lazy and authentic", which is exactly why i become a bum when i do it... It's a state where i don't pressure myself into doing the things i don't want to do, which can be seen as fake. 

    So how do you do this ?

    Try quitting, if only for a few secs. Give completely into the defeat and angst. Surrender all your goals, everything. Maybe even admit defeat of not being able to surrender. That is what surrender is. Kill the person who you are trying to be, not your physical body. Be who you are, and feel what you feel.

    I've tried this before, and all that this is doing for me is making it even more worse. At that point i watch porn and fap all day, eat junkfood, watch YouTube videos, sleep in late and wake up late, neglect even the most basic personal hygiëne and just end up in a very bad place.

    So i just stumbled upon this guy called "David Goggins", and watched this interview:

    Pretty cool interview and all, but what would happen if this guy awakened to the truth? I honestly don't feel like he did all of this, if anything out of pure authenticity.

    It seems like he's been through a lot of pain, and ran away from it like a madman, and i feel like that's the only thing that fueled him to get to this place.

    He definitely looks healthy and young for his age, but i don't know about his psychological state. I think he's holding up a big mask. I mean, the title of his book is called "can't hurt me". That doesn't sound healthy to me at all.

    What do you think?

    hahahahahaha I've tried that aswell and it failed. My desire for change was too strong and restless to just be happy with whatever floats your boat at a particular moment. 

    Yes, only because you see it as another call to action from and egoic perspective. Being happy with whatever floats your boat is not something that you do, it IS something that occurs when you surrender. BUT, you cannot practice that.

    There is no purpose in anything. Don't neglect that, but try to actually see if that's the case.

    Looking for a passion and a purpose are all distractions of what is here and now.

    Who knows what you are here for? It doesn't matter.

    If you need to find a passion or whatever it is in this lifetime, it will happen regardless of you seeking for it like a crazy madman. Chances are because you are doing this, you might even overlook the simplest small stuff that would lead you to something that comes close to a purpose.

    Not everyone needs a passion or purpose or whatever.

    Why not wake up every morning seeing what wants to shine through you and make that your purpose?
