You are what you think you are, but also what you truly are on a deep level.
Do not think that the narrow-minded ideas of psychological self-programming are as effective as the “saviors” on duty and profiteers of a free paradise claim.
It is not enough to believe and fight for something to become viable. The structures of the mind are more complex than even the greatest experts in neuroscience or psychology on Earth today could have imagined.
Therefore, respect your millennia-old past of vicious experiences and inclinations toward decadence, so that you may then be able to transcend yourself as much as possible, and not exactly as you desire.
This way, you will not become unnecessarily frustrated, nor will you have the risk of abandoning the path of lucidity and wisdom, being consumed by the painful disillusionment resulting from delusional, megalomaniacal pretensions.
The evolutionary stature of each individual constitutes a truth too authentic — if we can express ourselves that way, pleonastically and didactically — to be ignored or eclipsed by dangerous and vain dreams of being and doing.
Small, feasible and sustainable changes are better than great, unattainable revolutions.
