The Transformative Spirit / by Alexander Lyadov

Prosperity is simple if two conditions are met:

  1. Become invulnerable.

  2. Embrace Chaos.

Really?

If you're fragile and vulnerable, even the slightest volatility can be fatal. What development is there if your only concern is to survive until dawn?

But suppose your world resembles a museum—orderly and static. In such a scenario, invincibility serves no purpose. There's no risk, but there's also no upside.

As your invulnerability grows, chaos shifts from foe to ally.

After all, any encounter with uncertainty has three scenarios:

  1. Everything is much worse than we expected — it's a disaster.

  2. There's nothing important — you can ignore it.

  3. Like Aladdin, you gain access to the robbers' treasure trove.

Prosperity is inevitable when you make scenario #1 unlikely.

So, what's the catch? Carl Jung noticed: "Simple things are always the most complex." Invincibility is a significant personal endeavor.

It's not so much about physical strength or weaponry. Nor is it solely about the speed of decision-making or the adaptability of your paradigms.

It's about what's invisible yet most valuable. "The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." (Mark 14:38).

The spiritual vector indicates what to strive for. It's within our power to enhance our invincibility each day. Then almost everything will turn out to be good.

Sincerely yours,

-Alexander
