If you're someone who spends way too much time alone, watch out.

You may begin seeing humans thru a black & white lens.

But that's approaching humans with a logical mindset.

They are the exact opposite.

Emotional creatures.

Aim to see the gray areas of the social world.

'Whoa, wait up there bucko! Black, white, gray, whatsup with all of these colors??'

These colors are very important.

'But what do they mean?'

I will explain. But first, I must explain the ego...👇

Your ego is the mind that rests between your conscious & subconscious mind.

Conscious is your critical thinking mind.

Subconscious is your emotionally feeling mind.

Are you a logical or emotional creature?

'Logical!'

Nope. You are an emotional creature.

'Really??'

Yes. You process information with your emotional mind first & then justify it with your logical mind.

Which is why the subconscious mind dictates 95% of your reality.

'Okay.. but what does this have to do with the black, white & gray colors?'

This crucial concept allows you to decide whether you have tamed your ego or whether your ego controls you.

When you spend a lot of time with yourself, you are familiarizing yourself more with your subconscious mind.

You are finding more logical explanations for those illogical feelings of yours.

Your reality is soon becoming solidified.

When you are unleashed back into the real world, you think that other people should abide by this reality that your ego has crafted for you.

You start seeing human thru a black & white lens.

Either your ego approves of their behavior because it matches the principles of your reality.

Or your ego disapproves.

Black & white.

'And you're telling me this is dangerous??'

Yes, very.

'Why?'

Because in the social world, everyone has their own ego's as well.

Your ego don't mean shit homie.

And unless you are able to see that you will have PLENTY of unneeded arguments, conflicts & lost friendships in your journey to the top.

Which is why you MUST see the gray areas even if you don't want to.

'How??'

Empathy.

The only way to go from a black & white -> gray thinking of humans is thru empathy.

Aim to understand their thoughts, feelings & ego, even if you disagree with them.

The more that you do this, the more you are able to tame your ego along the way.

'Empathy is for soft people tho! I'm an alpha.'

No you fool.

Empathy is for smart people that see the game 10 steps ahead.

If you want to get anywhere in life, you HAVE to be able to deal with people.

Empathy is your answer.

'Ah I see! So empathy will help change my line of thinking towards humans??'

Yes!
