“No tree, it is said, can grow to heaven unless its roots grow down to hell.” --Carl Jung

Your path will not be rainbows and butterflies, despite whatever toxic positive path you want to adhere to.

The Secret? The Secret completely disregards the subconscious. The Law of Attraction? Same thing. You may get what you think you want by simply believing you can achieve it, but you will very quickly learn that what you think you want and what you actually want are two completely different things.

You can make a heaven for yourself here on earth. Or you can make a hell for yourself. The difference between the two comes down to how well you know yourself.

And the unfortunate reality is that it is highly likely that you don’t know yourself nearly as well as you should.

So you wish for what you think you want. And what you wish for eventually becomes detrimental to your existence. But because you lacked the self awareness to truly understand what would be best for you, you manifested what would not be.

“Yea though I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death” then becomes a matter of conscious recognition. The individual who truly knows themselves is unwilling to let the darkness within remain dark; they have opted to explore all the shadowy places that exists in their soul and actively work to bring those places to light.

Making a heaven on earth for yourself is more about exploring the hell that resides within and less about blindly following a belief system filled with empty promises.

You are the tree. And you will not grow to heaven unless you recognize fully who you are in hell.
