Being Realistic is Delusional

why are we so scared of everything what the hell is wrong what is wrong who can think of a scared thought right now raise your hand if you have a scared thought right now just anything what if I don't even if it's about later this week or this year raise your hand if you have that it's not weird what a delusion we're in you know people always go that's great Kyle but what about the real world where I go back home and spend 99% of my day fantasizing about everything that could go wrong the real world where my mind creates problem after problem all day and I worship how politicians are about to ruin the planet and I keep thinking of all the ways that I'm going to fall apart what about that Kyle what about the real world where I sit on my couch where I'm completely safe where nothing actually bad is happening but I'm creating thought after thought after thought that is total fantasy but a fear-based fantasy out of habit that I could totally conquer if I wanted to by just focusing on what actually is real right now what about that Kyle what about the real world people love to call people who focus on what actually is true delusional and call their weird chaotic survival horrifying place the real world what's actually real right now every thought that you raise your hand about isn't happening right now in fact you're probably creating it half the crap that's going on is just our creation because you could be creating anything right now but instead we're creating how it could go wrong and then fixing it so even if it's something simple you're going to go on a date and your start thinking like what if I whatever what if I have diarrhea in the middle of the day what if they see what if they can tell that I'm having diarrhea on the day then your mind comes up with the solution to the magical problem you just created so you're on a date like oh this is a diarrhea free smile do you have pets so you create how it could go wrong with your magical mind before it ever happened and then you create a solution which makes the person across from you go this person have diarrhea because no actual diarrhea free person would sit like this [Laughter] so that's the real world that's what people say at the end of the event well that's great but what happens when I go back to the real world what if some the fact that you're breathing right now which we focused on none and that your hearts been beating while we've been crazy to it and your body's digesting is legitimately real you have evidence to that we never focus on it we never just actually focus on the space that we're sitting in we never focus on the real world that we're really actually very safe I'm not saying there aren't things that come up but I wonder if we focused on how safe we were and that there's something beating our heart how many things we'd have that would create an abundance for ourselves that would not even make problems exist not in the same way at least but if you're in the world where you're constantly finding what's wrong with everything you and then fixing it so that your ego feels like it's not dying then you're actually in the delusional world
