Stars Communicate Only With Stars
By exaggerating the importance of mobilizing moments and living in the present, we risk losing the true measure of performance and the virtues that underlie a meaningful existence.
Some individuals “finally” find a preoccupation, more or less conjunctural, but without really excelling in one direction or another. Or these individuals are somewhat like the 7-year-old kid who is very happy to receive a toy, such as a remote-controlled car. As soon as he gets his hands on it, he turns it around, examines it as a work of art, being a super okay alternative to the poor Lego set. Finally, the child experiences intensely the moment of a new beginning.
And the fun begins, a new horizon stretches forward, dreaming of a happy world in a whirlwind of gloomy realities. And just to see the owner of the car so happy, so proud of his toy, as if only he had access to the “unseen face” of a world descended from unattainable dreams. Sometimes he reveals the selfishness and possessiveness in him: “Don’t touch my toy. It’s mine and mine alone ! ” Most of the time, he competes with other children, with other cars…
So, whole days, whole nights, whole weeks, whole months, the 7-year-old is so happy because he has finally discovered an interesting occupation, being so proud, so haughty, so delighted with his new acquisition in front of the other children who also have remote-controlled cars, maybe not as fast as his. The child is left with the car, but not with the knowledge of reaching great heights.
Can you balance your energy to go forward permanently, but without letting yourself be guided by it, in such a way as to unleash your potential and maximize your performance in your continuous journey?
At some point in life, I suppose that’s how all 7-year-olds are, trapped in a moment that life calls childhood. Only one detail is stubborn not to fit at all in the overall picture. Well, children are rarely attentive to the multitude of conditionings that determine the external reality, they experience the present moment without looking through the bars of reality. Few benefit from the amazing life experience that is subject to a grand destiny.
Children do not take into account that, in time, that car will break down or be thrown in a closet with other toys. They also do not take into account the fact that other more interesting games and activities will appear, such games you can play on your laptop, and as we well know, emotions manifest themselves differently from a certain age. That car is an act of spectacle, a sign of pride to be equal to other well-seen and well-positioned children, next to the scene called WOW (your play is a wow).
And in the end, that car doesn’t bring them to any podium, it doesn’t teach them anything about life, about all faces of life, it doesn’t teach them about art-specific concepts, how science and techniques advance, and it doesn’t guide their steps to make the right choices. Life does not teach them anything, until science takes them ahead, and instead of guiding their efforts towards the world of art and technology that in the future could place them on a podium of the great winners, they only limit themselves to experiencing the present moment, in all of its splendor.
Does the image you build and display in the world depend on capturing moments that will soon come to pass, or on the amazing experience of reorganizing life from which you have no expectation of it taking you too far ahead?
Well, that’s exactly the way it is with some people who think they excel in an activity. They are so happy that they have found a job, as a kind of toy, belonging only to them, something unique that they know how to relate to, to have something to be proud of, right? But, after all, they don’t realize that they are just robots that light up like a toy, one that can be replaced with another toy. And how many of them end up creators at a toy factory? How many of them end up being high-performance electric car manufacturers at the Tesla factory?
And, ironically, the one who runs the Tesla car company may never have had a remote-controlled car as a child. Perhaps he was looking insistently at the starry sky after a football game his father took him to from time to time, and he was looking at the starry sky with the terrible prophecy of the astrologer who can predict the future of a car industry without even understanding the basics of mechanics.
The stars speak only with the souls of those who know how to look at them, to listen to them, to see their brightness, and they are closer to an invincible attitude in the face of existential storms. The bold and dreamy man is much more important than a source of fun. And he has the patience for the stars to guarantee his success. The true “Future Hero” is the one who identifies with the stars, the one who knows how to read in every little glow a fulfillment of his prophecy.
And, to get back to what I was saying. There are people who have “finally” found an occupation. This occupation may be their only toy to be proud of, but they may also never know how to drive a brand-new Tesla car that has just left a Tesla factory.
So, be careful what you are proud of, lest you remain a prisoner of a small, endangered world, while someone else becomes the doer of a global, cosmic world. Maybe, however, the stars communicate only with stars…
To reach a high level of leadership, you must benefit from an interweaving of God’s plan with your determination to be firm in re-prioritizing things that are fleeting.
The Stars Communicate Only With Stars only when man realizes that he is favored by providence in anticipation of a future that deserves to be experienced only by the brightness of faith to find the truth hidden under the guise of things, or to change the appearance of things that neglect the meaning of the true “target” of life.
