Playing the Matrix Quotes
“Did you really need me to tell you what you really want is happiness? I’m afraid so, because your entire life, you and everyone else have been urged to turn the question of “What do I want?” into “How am I going to get there?”!
And thereby, we’ve come to believe we don’t even know what we want, when we actually do, thinking instead that we have to answer the question of 'How?' with a sexy, cool career that will thrill us and make all else possible. We even sheepishly think we’re already supposed to be rocking this sexy, cool vocation, except we don’t know what it is yet! Paralysis.
You’ve always known what you wanted, happiness! But you’ve been taught it's something you have to achieve, doing what you love, instead of being shown it’s about loving what you do and seeing where it leads. Neither have we been taught we can feel happiness now, for no reason.
And given that most of our 'achieving' in life comes from our careers, it’s been implied that to be successful (happy), we have to make wise choices, find our sacred, birth-destined niche, invoke divine intervention, perform clutch plays, get a little lucky, and shed copious amounts of blood, sweat, and tears.
Talk about pressure — we’ve carried the weight of the world on our shoulders! Why? Because we’ve confused the means with the end; the hows for our dreams!”
“It’s not the 'hows' you’re to be concerned with, but the 'Wows!' — as long as there’s understanding!”
“It’s one kind of victory to slay a beast, move a mountain, and cross a chasm, but it’s another kind altogether to realize that the beast, the mountain, and the chasm were of your own design!”
“Never did I wake up on a morning feeling like, I made it! I’m living my dreams! Yet still, only in hindsight, I had and I was.”
“Reality is not what your eyes show your mind, but what your mind creates for your eyes to see. You’re not limited by logic.”
“The idea that life and consciousness was bestowed on us by a God whose brilliance accounts for the entire universe — but possesses the emotional maturity of a 12-year-old — is shockingly illogical.”
“Where you are is never who you are.”
“You must show up, be there, do your part. Only then can the Universe do its part.”

“If you’re feeling good, then you’re creating a future that’s on track with your desires. If you’re feeling bad, you’re creating a future that’s off track with your desires.
As you go about your day, the law of attraction is working in every second. Everything we think and feel is creating our future. If you’re worried or in fear, then you’re bringing more of that into your life throughout the day.”
