Verse  There’s been a successful Branding initiative Of defining escapism As freedom. Any activity that temporarily Numbs your mind Or keeps you distracted Long enough to forget All the pain You’re aware of or not. This is escapism In its truest sense. This is not freedom.  Branding initiative Notwithstanding. True freedom is theFull and live functioningOf all your facultiesIn the present moment.It is totally experiencing Life in all its glory. Joy or sorrow.Pleasure or pain.Irrelevant. Contrary to everything I’d been conditioned to believe, I found true freedom In taking responsibility For my current situation And taking thoughtful Concrete action to become Who I want to be;To reach my new goals And destination. a*k² If you’d like to read this content as you work through it, find the podcast episode on my website link in the bio: www.atimesksquared.com.

Verse  Everything you’ve done to dateHas you invested in the status quo.And so you fight to play inside The circle you’ve created for yourself. Yet, what you seek is outside.And so you play this game,Until you wear yourself out.  When you’re done,Is where you begin.  When you’re done making excuses,When you’re tired of waiting aroundFor other people or circumstances,Or for your whole life to change. When you’re ready toShake up your whole worldBecause it has nothing to offer That is of any value to you. You’re ready, willing, and ableTo do whatever it takes To reclaim control of your life.To find joy, purpose, and meaning.This is where you begin.  Now, nothing and no one Can stop you From finding yourself,From making a fresh start.This time, on your own terms.  You don’t need any specific Person, situation, or thing.You’ll tap into Every available resourceTo find outWhat works best for you. You will figure it out All on your own. Because this time, You’re determinedThat this is your life. You will design it How you want it.

Verse: Losses Not all losses are losses.Some losses are victoriesDisguised as losses. It’s best in the moment,To not judge what has happened.Sometimes, what you think To be the best thing Can turn out to be The worst over time.And vice-versa. So, before you Bemoan an event And declare it a loss, Give life time To show you what it really is.For all you know,It may be a blessing in disguise. Just you wait,Let life reveal its magicThrough time. But what if you Find out in the end That it was indeed a loss?Celebrate what you had Before you lost it. And resolve to do What it takes To protect that Which you value better.  For more ideas like this, I invite you to check out my website at www.atimesksquared.com. I'll be seeing you!
