We live in a world of civilians.

We live in a world of straight lines and blocky minds.

We’re programmed with language.

The civilians walk their programmed path to a job which they’re programmed to tolerate, or worse; pretend to enjoy. They eat factory processed food leaden with synthetic flavour ‘enhancers’. They rarely connect to another human being, they perform social programming which blocks independant thought and keeps their creativity stunted — that which we passingly call ‘Politeness’. They believe what they’re programmed to believe, and they act accordingly.

Boldness and truth are regarded as rude — or, ‘im-polite’. They don’t say no. They say maybe, perhaps, I’ll think about it, I’m not sure, no thank you. Authentic self expression is derogatory, humurous, weird.

Timothy Leary was a maverick. He stood, against the system, against authority, against the social programming. He did not conform to the programmed language, he created his own programming language.

And so, in the same way, on the path of the maverick, one must program oneself. The maverick is majorly free from cultural structuring, and so must create a personal structure — a personal set of values and a personal philosophy. The maverick must simplify, decondition, extract truth.

The maverick must act only on what he/she (I will address subject as ‘he’ from now on for convenience) decides worthwhile. The maverick is growth focused, because life grows — and the maverick is truly alive. Civilians are half alive, half asleep. Their consciousness is attached, ignorant, dependant — slave to shallow egoism, to their anxieties and deficiences and insecurities.

We want to be free of this. We want to pave our own path, a path of real living — of expanding and fulfilling and becoming.

I have a journal.

Recently, I have begun a new method of journaling.

Everyday I take one double page.

On the left side I write, as soon as I wake up, a poetic philosophy or idea, printed in large capital. This is a way of expanding ideas in my mind, and living what I’m learning.

This is how I grow my philosophy, my way of living and thinking.

On the right side I have section for affirmations in order to program my own thinking, reasons for gratitude and self love, a quote that lifts me up, aswell as a space for lessons I’ve learned from life, people and from my reading. This way I am able to pinpoint and absorb what I’m learning, affirm my mentalities, practice the perspective of love and gratitude, imbed wisdom, and create my own philosophy per daily utility.

As such I am taking my mental field into my own hands, I am moulding myself in how I wish to think and act. I am continuously noting things that offer wisdom and value, and processing them for my personal benefit. I am repeating empowering language, training my subconscious out of self limiting belief, out of nonchalance, out of the cultural naivety, the mediocrity in all forms that prevails, the lack of courage, confidence, direction, honesty.

I decide and track my habits, my actions — so that I make it my mission to do the things everyday that I know is part of my growth. And when I’m doing these habits I focus completely, my energy is devoted, hypnotised, intense.

Everyday I write, I read, I meditate, I work in my journal (on my mind), I exercise my body, I practice Qigong, I eat healthy wholesome foods and drink water.

But apart from the essentials, apart from the things I do because I’ve decided I want to do them for my own growth, I play.

I do what I want to do, I play the game of life and I relax into it.

I follow my curiosity moment to moment, I feel with my intuition what action is necessary, I enjoy social interactions, I observe, I study, I enjoy my books, I enjoy people, I enjoy.

When it is time to focus on a habit, I focus wholly. It is an action completed, as best as I can, with zen. With presence and attention and love. Otherwise, I do practical, miscellaneous tasks as they come up — without hesitating, and it all flows like that.

I don’t constantly think, analyse, worry.

I used to be stuck in the same pattern that businessmen get stuck in, and, infact, the same root neurosis that is culturally accepted as good, even.

But the answer, I have found, laid in the fact that I had demolished the ground under my feet — that which was paved by the culture, and I had not yet paved any ground to stand on for myself.

The Maverick is alone. He needs his own structure, his own philosophy. After he has broken free, and old ideas are no longer serving as a basis for thought and action, a new set of ideas must be created, a new philosophy, a new system.

And once the system is innovated, as the mechanic doesn’t tinker all day with the spark plug without first testing, the Maverick switches to action — to doing and being and creating.

People are scared.

They spend most of their time thinking about what they should do.

The Maverick is an action taker. The Maverick is always learning — from books, from people, from experiences, from everything. The Maverick takes his own life into his own hands — he takes complete responsibility.

The Maverick listens to the inner voice, the voice that beckons in eternity; the voice that calls, deep into the night, deep in the gut, in the soul, in the fabric of being. He knows that the only voice he can trust with absoluteness is his own. He knows that he is the master of his fate — that the more he learns, and the more he pays attention to this moment, the more life will reward him — and the higher he will rise as a human being of infinite potential.

As an individual, my mission is to make every second count, to serve truth, to follow my intense curiosity to the depths of existence — through the fold of time and space into the eternal and ethereal power that lies beyond the culture, beyond the mind.

Ultimately, I am the master of my life.

And everyday I’m making it my mission to learn, to write, to empower myself and others; to maintain and deepen the inner peace, the inner wisdom within the core of my being. To follow that wisdom, to listen, to act,— to be completely absorbed and trusting of the experience that is unfolding around and within me. The mind is not my master, it is my tool. This tool is my servant, for creating my character and playing it fully — with tenacity, with courage, with the wisdom within.

The Maverick seeks simplicity, because he knows that the simplest truths are the most profound. He knows that, the more he simplifies; the more he distills his life, his mind, his actions, to their rawest form, the greater he is able to harness the infinite power within. His mind is clear, his heart is pure and loving. His actions are whole — he is completely present in the doing. His interaction are profound, powerful, pure.

He never hesitates.

He is always aware, always ready, always looking ahead.

He takes nothing for granted, and leaves no oppurtunity unexplored.

He is a student of life, he is disciplined, he is open, he knows his power — and is profoundly confident of it.

He is humble, but focused — supremely. He pursues and breathes his art form with complete attention.

Everything holds a lesson. Every experience, every moment, every word. So he pays attention.

The mind rarely wanders, it is disciplined, clear, powerful.

The Maverick is no ordinary civilian, The Maverick is free — he is alive.

He has confidence, faith — in himself, in his thoughts, in his actions.

He may walk past in the street unnoticed, you may even shake his hand unknowingly — but look him in the eyes, ask him something real, feel him.

Notice anything?
