Seek to EXPERIENCE

I’m past all of the material and superficial small talk that goes on in today’s world.

While having a nice body, money, and success blah blah is all great, what’s even more interesting is zooming out of our screens and entertaining why the hell we’re here in the first place?! 🤷🏻‍♂️

While I’m flying around Bali on my moped, solo training or going for walks to clear my head this question always comes back to me.

What am I doing here?!

Now I’m no expert, researcher or spiritual unicorn. 🦄

But, what I am is curious. 🧐

Curious to know what makes me vibe with certain people and not with others, what makes me want to learn about myself, others and the environment I’m in.

At first, I didn’t have a clue what made me feel these things but as I’m getting older I’m realising something very interesting. 👀

Something that can connect people from opposite ends of the planet, from different generations, cultures and genders.

This thing is what I believe is the tip of the iceberg of why we’re here. What makes someone interesting, attractive, knowledgable and so much more?

That thing is EXPERIENCE.

But what does that word even mean?

The dictionary definition is - The fact or state of having been affected by or gained knowledge through direct observation or participation.

Put simply you have gained information and knowledge from the act of taking part in something or being present when something is going on.

Who do we mostly look up to?

People who have been through things and come out the other end, People who have what we want, People whose actions and life events inspire us to want and do more.

We read books and watch movies about people’s lives to learn more about them. Relating to events in that person’s life or even learning about things we never thought possible.

How is it that we can relate to someone we’ve never met before?

It’s most likely through similar experiences which led us to new thoughts, actions and then results.

Since moving country, I have met SO many people that I had no idea I’d get along with.

But because we have experienced similar life events it brought us together in some unexplainable ways.

It led me to think deeply about the subject. Instead of trying to answer that original question, however, I now seek it.

To simply experience…

What though?

The sad reality of today’s society is that we are always looking for a concrete answer.

Like 1+1 = window 👨🏻‍🎓

Letting go of outcomes and external influences you can truly EXPERIENCE.

By being here, now.

Thats something I realised when I met James Xander here in Bali.

He is in the complete opposite industry to me but after meeting him only twice we realised that we had so many similar experiences and thought processes.

This led us to recording a podcast on his channel covering subjects that we both had deep and meaningful experiences with.

Let me just say this, we spoke for over 2 and a half hours without feeling awkward or having to use small talk to fill silences.

It was truly a great Experience. 😉

If you take one thing away from today’s email - let it be this.

GO AND EXPERIENCE IT. FOR YOURSELF.

It doesn’t matter what it is. If you feel the need to do something.

DO IT. 

You will learn so much about yourself and I’m certain it will lead to opportunities for you to live a life you are excited by.
