Learning To Be Comfortably Comfortable With Being Uncomfortable

There is so much freedom in not giving a flip what others think of you. To be able to walk in confidence when people are laughing at you, mocking you, teasing you, haranguing you is a superpower.

The ability to NOT care what others think of you may come off to many as a sign of being arrogant and snobbish.

But what is truly arrogant is thinking that because you or a group don't think something is right, you have the right to change someone or cancel someone.

And all because YOU don't like what they say or how they live.

Learning To Be Comfortably Comfortable With Being Uncomfortable

There is a fine line between being a person who just gives no shits or fucks in life, a person who is so beyond the realm of petty rhetoric and gossip, and a person who thinks they are owed everything.

The people of great success are unfettered and unmoved by the opinion of others.

And these are the people I am referring to about being comfortable being uncomfortable.

And then you have your toxic assholes who don't care about people's opinions and do so with the intent that they don't view people as autonomous beings but as tools for their pleasure.

And this is where that distinction draws the line.

A successful person does not need to use others because, in their minds, they are all about being the best that they can be ON THEIR OWN.

A toxic person wants the best for themselves at the EXPENSE OF OTHERS AROUND THEM.

Knowing this distinction will keep you on a more “moral” path, and I use the word “moral” here very loosely.

I am at that stage in my life (well, I have been here for a very long time) where I just don't give a shit what people say or think about me.

And you know what, it is very liberating.

It is liberating that people can hate me because of my race, culture, or gender and for me NOT to GIVE A DAMN.

It is liberating to have people laugh at me, mock me and tease me and for me NOT to GIVE A DAMN.

It is liberating to receive hate comments for my perspectives on issues, such as WHITE PRIVILEGE DOES NOT EXIST, I AM NOT A VICTIM, and PINEAPPLE DOES NOT GO ON PIZZA and for me to NOT GIVE A DAMN.

It is liberating to have a world hate me for the reasons they have been brainwashed to hate me for, and for me to NOT GIVE A DAMN.

I am so comfortable being uncomfortable, and that is a damn superpower.

I have no issue dealing with someone who wants to test me in public for their clout because the opinion of onlookers (sheep) means nothing to the WOLF that I am.

If you want to be happy in life, free, and TRULY FREE, you must learn how to be comfortable being uncomfortable in all situations in life.

Life never gets easier; we just get stronger.

And we get stronger by learning how to enjoy the hardships of life.

I will never apologize for the way that I see life, nor do I ever try and FORCE others to see it my way.

And why?

Because I just don’t give a shit how others see the world, and that is liberating!

I highly recommend that you give this book “Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder,” by Nassem Taleb.
