Painful truths Yeah that’s right; you heard me… I’m talking to you… I’m calling you out. I’m looking you in the eyes, (ok well, not really since you are probably reading this article, but figuratively, I am burning a cyclops type hole in your face right now) and telling you that you don’t stand a chance. I’m telling you that if you can read this article, look through this list and not claim it as your own, then you should be a little worried. Actually, you should be very worried. You should drop everything and immediately question your existence on earth. You should find a mirror, look yourself in the eyes, raise your hand and slap yourself in the face. Got it? Now repeat that until you come to your senses and continue reading whenever you’re ready. I’m Talkin’ ‘Bout Street Skills Son! I’m not talking about the: study hard, party light, graduate top-of-your-class skills. I’m not even talking about the: slack-off, skip class, smoke weed, drink and party but still graduate, skill-set your $50,000+ diploma has lead you to believe you have. “I’m talking ’bout, step out your door, make some moves, and get-some-shit-done, kind of skills! Some, move out your mama’s house, quit your job — say “fuck the world” — and then actually go do it, kind of skills”. The kind of skills you develop in the real world, outside the bubble of your parents protection or the ideological indoctrination that has overwhelmed our entire educational system. Skills that can be had by anyone willing to pay the price to get them. Skills that are quickly becoming extinct. I’m talking about skills that cannot be taught in a classroom or in a textbook. Skills you can only learn by doing; by learning how to fly after jumping off the cliff. Skills that can only be developed when you find your true self. When you put yourself on the line or otherwise expose yourself to the possibility of failure. The skills you can only develop when you are willing to risk it all in order to do that one amazing thing. Skills that up until now, you thought you had. “Basically, what I am trying to tell you is that, in this game called life, you don’t stand a chance… 1 :: Because You Have Not Failed Enough Because you are comfortable in your mediocrity; because you choose not to try. Because it is easier to talk about learning that new (programming?) language as opposed to actually learning it. Because you think everything is too hard or too complicated so you will just “sit this one out”, or maybe you’ll, “do-it-tomorrow”! Because you hate your job but won’t get a new one; because it is easy to reject rejection. Because while you’re sitting around failing to try, I am out there trying to fail, challenging myself, learning new things and failing as fast as possible. Because as I fail, I learn, and then adjust my course to make sure my path is always forward. Like the process of annealing steel, I’ve been through the fire and pounded into shape. The shape of a sword with polished edges and a razor sharp blade that will cut you in half if you are not equally hardened. 2 :: Because You Care What Others Think About You Because you have to fit in. Because you believe that being different is only cool if you’re different in the same way that other people are different. Because you are afraid to embrace your true self for fear of how the world will see you. You think that because you judge others, this means that those people must, in-turn, be judging you. Because you care more about the stuff you have as opposed to the things you’ve done. Because while you’re out spending your money on new outfits, new cars, overpriced meals or nights at the bar, I’ll be investing in myself. And while you try to fit in with the world I’ll make the world fit in with me. Because I will recklessly abandon all insecurities and expose my true self to the world. I will become immune to the impact of your opinion and stand naked in a crowd of ideas; comfortable in knowing that while you married the mundane I explored the exceptional. 3 :: Because You Think You Are Smarter Than You Are Because you did what everyone else did; you studied what they studied and read what they read. Because you learned what you had to learn in order to pass their tests and you think that makes you smart. Because you think learning is only something people do in schools. Because while you were away at college, I was studying life; because instead of learning about the world in a classroom I went out and learned it by living. Because I know more than any piece of paper you could ever frame from a university. Because smart is not what you learn, it’s how you live. Because I might not have a degree but I challenge you to find a topic that I can’t talk to you about cohesively. Because I could pass your tests if I had to, but you couldn’t stand for a single second in the face of the tests that life has thrown me. Tests that are not graded on a bell curve or by percentages; tests that are graded by one simple stipulation: survival! 4 :: Because You Don’t Read Because you read the things you are required to read or nothing at all. Because you think history is boring and philosophy is stupid. Because you would rather sit and watch “E!” or “MTV” instead of exploring something new, instead of diving head first, into the brain of another man in an attempt to better understand the world around you. Because you refuse to acknowledge that all the power in the world comes from the words of those that lived before us. That anything you desire can be had by searching through the multitude of words that are available to us now more abundantly than ever before. Because you are probably not reading this article even though you know you should. Because the people that are reading this already know these things. Because you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. 5 :: Because You Lack Curiosity Because you get your news from copy-cat members of the state-controlled media. Because you are unwilling to ask this simple question… “What if it’s all a lie?”, and accept the possibility that maybe it is; that just maybe, the methods of mass media are under direct orders to: keep you distracted. Because you call me a know-it-all but refuse to call yourself a know-nothing-at-all. Because I thirst for knowledge, regardless the topic. Because while you’re busy playing Candy Crush, or Megalopolis, I am reading about string theory and quantum mechanics. Because while you waste your time with Tosh.o I am learning how to edit video, build websites and design mobile apps. Because if we were to go heads-up in a debate, I would crush you. I would make it a point to defeat my own argument; from every imaginable angle; in order to understand everything you might be able to use against me. Because I would dedicate myself to understanding both sides of the argument so thoroughly that I could argue your side for you and win; even after having just handed you a defeat in the same debate. 6 :: Because You Don’t Ask Enough Questions Because you do not question authority. Because you don’t question yourself. Because you don’t understand the power of properly placed questioning in life, respectful disagreements and standing up for what you know to be right in the face of someone telling you otherwise. Unable to question reality; stuck in a self imposed survival strategy within a matrix-style monotony. Because I know that you will give me all the information I need to destroy you by letting you talk. Because I study human behaviors and you ignore everyone but yourself. Because I watch how you say the things you say just as closely as I listen to what you say; and you say way too much! Because control comes, not from spewing your ignorance like some incurable case of logorrhea, but from properly structuring the context of your questions. Because I study the premise of your argument and destroy it from the ground level before you even get a chance to establish your ideas. 7 :: Because You Can’t Handle The Truth Because you refuse to admit that you don’t even know the things you don’t know. Because there isn’t an article online that would make up for all the time you have wasted in life. Because even if I told you everything could be different tomorrow you would wait until then to begin doing anything about it. Because even when you think I’m not, I’m aware of my surroundings. Because you think that since I have not acknowledged you, it means that I have not seen you. Because, you walk around with your head up your ass, oblivious to the world around you. Blissfully ignorant of the reality that sits so close to your face that if you stuck your tongue out, just once, you would taste it and realize how delicious the truth actually is. Because you would become an instant addict. Unable to pull yourself from the teat of truth. Finally able to understand your lack of understanding, and then you would see; then you would know that the only thing holding you back from doing something truly amazing, is you. https://medium.com/life-learning/2a1841f1335d Because you are comfortable in your mediocrity; because you choose not to try. Because it is easier to talk about learning that new (programming?) language as opposed to actually learning it.

“Da, tako je, čuo si me… pričam tebi! Gledam te u oči (dobro, ne baš skroz pošto vjerovatno čitaš ovo na ekranu, ali figurativno, zamisli da ti sada pogledom bušim rupu na čelu) i govorim ti da nemaš nikakve šanse. Piše: Raymmar Tirado Kažem ti da ako pročitaš ovaj tekst, pogledaš ovu listu i ne prepoznaš da se sve odnosi i na tebe, trebalo bi da budeš malkice zabrinut. Zapravo, trebalo bi da budeš veoma zabrinut. Trebalo bi da ostaviš sve i zapitaš se koja je uopšte svrha tvog postojanja na Zemlji. Pronađi ogledalo, pogledaj se u oči i onda lijepo odvali sebi šamar. Shvatio? A sada to ponavljaj dok ne shvatiš da se ovo stvarno odnosi na tebe. Ovdje pričam o uličnim vještinama. Ja ne pričam o onome: uči vrijedno, ponekad se zabavi, završi faks sa dobrim ocjenama. Ja ne pričam ni o: zabavi se, propusti predavanja, puši travu, opijaj se i uživaj ali ipak završi faks. Ja pričam o tome da izađeš iz svoje kuće i uradiš nešto konkretno. O tome pričam. Da izađeš iz mamine kućice, daš otkaz, kažeš “jebite se svi” i onda stvarno uradiš nešto. O tome ti pričam. Ja pričam o vještinama koje ćeš naučiti u pravom svijetu, izvan sigurnosti roditeljskog doma ili ideološke indoktrinacije koja te je pratila kroz cijelo tvoje obrazovanje. Pričam o vještinama koje svako može da nauči ako želi, ali one i pored toga danas nestaju. Te vještine ne mogu da se nauče na časovima ili u knjigama. Te vještine mogu da se nauče samo u praksi. Recimo kao kada bi naučio da letiš pošto si skočio sa litice. Te vještine ćeš naučiti tek kada otkriješ pravog sebe. Kada sve staviš na kocku i suočiš se sa izvjesnom propašću. Te veštine ćeš naučiti samo ako si spreman da rizikuješ sve kako bi postigao neke sjajne stvari. Ono što hoću da ti kažem je da u igri zvanoj život i nemaš neke šanse… Zato što nisi dovoljno puta izgubio Zato što se osjećaš prilično dobro u svojoj prosječnosti, zato što si odlučio da ni ne pokušaš. Zato što je lakše pričati o tome kako učiš nešto novo nego zapravo to i uraditi. Zato što misliš da je sve previše teško ili previše komplikovano pa ćeš tu priliku preskočiti, ili je možda ostaviti za sutra. Zato što mrziš svoj posao, ali ne želiš da pronađeš novi, zato što je lakše unaprijed odbaciti moguću propast sa kojom ćeš se suočiti. Zato što je lakše ni ne pokušati nego izađi i pokušati pa makar bio siguran da nećeš uspjeti. Ali ćeš naučiti nove stvari i dovesti sebe u izazov. Zato što kada god nisam uspio naučio sam, a onda sam promijenio moj put kako bih uvijek išao napred. Kao kod kovanja gvožđa, prošao sam kroz vatru kako bih dobio oblik. I to oblik mača, glatkih ivica i oštrog sečiva koje će te isjeći na pola ako nisi dovoljno čvrst. Zato što te briga šta drugi misle Zato što moraš da se uklopiš. Zato što vjeruješ da je ok biti drugačiji ali samo ako si drugačiji na isti način kao što su svi ostali drugačiji. Zato što se plašiš da se suočiš sa samim sobom zbog straha od drugih. A tako razmišljaš zato što ti sam sudiš ostalima, pa onda normalno mora da i drugi sude tebi na isti način. Zato što ti više znače stvari koje imaš, nego stvari koje si uradio. Zato što trošiš novac na odjeću, kola, skupe restorane ili izlaske. Ja ulažem u sebe. Dok ti pokušavaš da se uklopiš u svijet, ja ću svet prilagoditi sebi. Zato što ću ja bez razmišljanja odbaciti sigurnost i pravog sebe pokazati svijetu. Postaću otporan na tuđa mišljenja i stajati potpuno go u masi ideja, ali znaću da si ti uvijek ostao prosječan dok sam ja uradio neke izuzetne stvari. Zato što misliš da si pametniji nego što jesi Zato što si uradio sve što su uradili svi ostali. Učio si ono što su drugi učili i pročitao si ono što su svi drugi pročitali. Zato što si naučio ono što je trebalo kako bi položio NJIHOVE ispite i sada misliš da si pametan upravo zbog toga. Zato što misliš da je učenje nešto što se radi u školi. Dok si ti bio na fakultetu, ja sam učio život. Umjesto da učim o svijetu ja sam izašao u taj svijet. Možda nemam diplomu ali ti odaberi temu o kojoj želiš da razgovaramo. Zato što mogu da položim tvoje testove ako bi trebalo, ali ti ne bi izdržao ni jednu sekundu pred izazovima koje mi je život priredio. Izazove koji nisu napravljeni na osnovu težine već samo na osnovu jednog kriterijuma. A to je – da li češ preživjeti ili ne. Zato što ne čitaš Zato što čitaš stvari koje traže od tebe ili ne čitaš uopšte. Zato što misliš da je istorija dosadna a filozofija glupa. Zato što ćeš radije gledati MTV nego istražiti nešto novo, umjesto da uskočiš u mozak drugih kako bi bolje razumio svijet oko sebe. Zato što odbijaš da prihvatiš da moć na ovom svijetu dolazi od riječi ljudi koji su živjeli prije tebe. Da sve što želiš već sada možeš da pronađeš u riječima koje su nam danas dostupnije nego ikada. Zato što vjerovatno ni ne čitaš ovaj tekst a znaš da bi trebalo. Zato što ljudi koji čitaju ovaj tekst zapravo već znaju ove stvari. Zato što možeš da odvedeš konja u vodu, ali ne možeš da ga nateraš i da popije vodu. Zato što nisi radoznao Zato što uredno dobijaš svoju porciju vesti iz kontrolisanih medija. Zato što nisi spreman da postaviš pitanje: “A šta ako je sve laž?”. A onda prihvatiš mogućnost da zapravo i jeste laž. Možda, zato što su tehnike mas-medija napravljene samo da bi te oni zbunili. Zato što misliš da sam ja sve shvatio, ali nećeš da prihvatiš da ti ništa ne znaš. Zato što sam ja željan znanja, bez obzira na temu. Zato što igraš Candy Crush ili Megalopolis dok ja čitam o teoriji struna i kvantnoj mehanici. Zato što ti gubiš vrijeme na aplikacije a ja učim kako da editujem video, napravim website ili dizajniram mobilnu aplikaciju. Zato što bih te uništio da započeno raspravu. Zato što bih moje argumente branio iz svakog mogućeg ugla kako bih shvatio sve što bi možda imao da kažeš protiv mene. Zato što sam odlučio da razumijem obe strane priče tako dobro da bih mogao da zastupam i tvoje stavove i pobijedim, čak i ako bih te upravo porazio u debati. Zato što ne postavljaš dovoljno pitanja Zato što ne preispituješ autoritete. Zato što ne postavljaš pitanja samom sebi. Zato što ne razumeš moć dobro postavljenih pitanja u životu, razlike u mišljenjima i borbu za svoje stavove kako neko pokuša da te ubijedi u suprotno. Zato što ne možeš da preispitaš realnost, zato što si ušuškan u sopstvenom matriksu monotonije. Zato što znam da ćeš mi u običnom ćaskanju odati sve informacije koje su mi potprebne da te uništim. Zato što ja proučavam ponašanje ljudi dok ti ignorišeš sve ostale osim samog sebe. Zato što pratim kako izgovaraš riječi isto kao što slušam šta govoriš. A pričaš previše. Zato što prava moć dolazi ne iz logoreične ignorancije, već iz pravilno postavljenih pitanja. Zato što se ja bavim osnovnim idejama tvojih argumenata i mogu da ih sasiječem u korenu pre nego što si shvatio da uopšte imaš ideju. Zato što ne možeš da prihvatiš istinu Zato što odbijaš da priznaš da ne znaš stvari koje ne znaš. Zato što ne postoji tekst na Internetu koji će ti nadoknaditi sve vijreme koje si proćerdao u životu. Čak i kada bih ti sve objasnio sačekao bi do sutra da uradiš nešto. A svijet će se do tada potpuno promijeniti. Zato što i kada misliš da nisam, ja jesam svjestan svijeta oko sebe. Zato što misliš da te nisam primjetio, ako to nisam pokazao. Zato što hodaš sa glavom u svom dupetu, nesvjestan svijeta oko tebe, blaženo ignorišući svijet koji je tako blizu da bi mogao da osjetiš njegov ukus samo ako bi otvorio usta. A onda bi shvatio koliko je samo istina ukusna. Zato što bi se odmah navukao na njega. Shvatio bi svoje nerazumijevanje a onda bi konačno razumio da je jedina stvar koja te sprječava da uradiš nešto nevjerovatno zapravo – ti sam!
