Life is empty and meaningless and it’s empty and meaningless that it’s empty and meaningless.

When I posted that [1] Life is empty and meaningless, I was just curious to see what type of comments I would get. I could have explained what I meant then, but I thought it would serve me better to wait.

Some people thought I was being morbid, some were offended, some thought I would attract more emptiness and meaningless into my life, while others saw the possibilities, and to my surprise and amusement someone actually called me out on being a landmark forum graduate. This only adds to the fact that I’m sharing these concepts with you because I believe you deserve to know them.

Perhaps defining what I mean by the above sentence is a huge contradiction. Why define something that I say is empty and meaningless. The reason I do this is because I want you to receive the benefit of this belief. This paradigm suits me well in life, and enables me to be happy, experience unconditional love, as well as push myself to new and exciting limits.

My paradigm of life liberates me from past fears, traumas, and self-limiting beliefs. Thoughts that dictate that I might fail, won’t make it, aren’t good enough, not smart or good-looking enough, and any other onslaught of beliefs that could potentially stop me from reaching my goals and fully enjoying life are absolutely unacceptable.

I’ve decided to take a zero-tolerance policy towards thoughts that aren’t being conducive to my happiness. When I think of thoughts as either pro-joy, or anti-joy, without a gray area, it helps me to filter out what I do not consider an adequate use of my time, resources, and thought processes.

I do believe there is an adequate purpose in studying ourselves and looking at why we have certain negative beliefs and emotions. I do not believe such thoughts have any other practical use in our daily lives. It is fun to have a breakthrough, in which you realize that you’ve been limiting your joy by holding onto a self-limiting belief. At the same time, it is important to stop dwelling on these thoughts soon after your a-ha! moment.

It’s true, what you think about expands, so why is it that I think about life being empty and meaningless? What most people do not realize is that we have a special mental and spiritual ability to start our lives with a blank-slate, whenever the urge strikes us or the need arises. Letting go of the past enables us to create our future. With emptiness and meaninglessness, we are armed with a future of endless possibilities.

By having such beliefs, you create a reality for yourself where there are no excuses. Surely there will still be challenges, but they’ll no longer be problems or impenetrable walls. Instead, life will be a game, in which you pick your thoughts, your activities, and go on a journey that is fun, challenging, and exciting. Once you adopt this paradigm, there is no more looking back (unless that’s what you want).

Who would you be without self limiting beliefs?
