Beating the Cross Town Traffic of Life With the Real Short Cuts

In real life and existence, there are no short cuts if you are dishonest with yourself. But, if you are honest with yourself, the ultimate short cut is direct honesty and complete harmony with reality. This article helps with that understanding. Human nature likes things quick, but time does not operate that way, especially when you are impatient with time and life. Think about it, I am right about the real short cuts to winning, when I say the words patience, understanding and tolerance, I mean them completely and succinctly. There is no other reasonable or logical way to live, although people have infinitely varying characters in every way as human beings and conscious beings. In reality, life has infinite concepts of application but only those three genuinely count no matter what the character you have as a human being. You cannot avoid those three realities of patience, understanding and tolerance even if you are indeed dishonest with yourself or anything else in life. Think about existence as a whole right now, even. Why is everything falling apart? It is because we are breaking those three conceptual laws of patience, understanding and tolerance that nature and time operate by. I am not saying "work your fingers to the bone" or anything like that, but you must have patience, understanding and tolerance of time and nature, and live in harmony with it all to achieve the honest objectives you want.

Sure, I could be less honest about it even in this honestly thought out article, but I will endeavor to deliver the maximum value without delusional mysticism or game playing. Sure, ethically and realistically, honesty is the ultimate short cut, long cut, it is everything that you need to live properly, anything else is logically unneeded and unwise. I am not saying "perfection" or anything like that. But I am saying there is always a proper way to get success and win no matter what your character. You can do it or not. There is always a choice to be honest or dishonest. So again I say in a different way, I will be nothing but honest in this article, and realistic.

In my mind there is more to life than meets the eye. But the operational concepts and principles are always the same when dealing with it. I know, I have said it a lot, but rationally done patience, understanding and tolerance is the order of the day if you want to win in life and achieve your goals. Beating the cross town traffic of life and getting through it takes just that. Sure you can be impatient and curse the roads, or handle them with patience, understanding and tolerance productively, but we all have to drive them to get where we are going in life and existence. So, to quote a great journalist: "We came from somewhere and we are going somewhere." That is the truth and honest reality, but where we go and how we go there as long as we are sentient and conscious beings that are mature, it is all genuinely our choice.
