Choosing delusion reveals that what is often deemed "realistic" is simply a collective agreement rather than an absolute truth. Many societal constructs, from money to work ethics, lack inherent reality and are instead fabricated beliefs upheld by social agreement. Historical breakthroughs showcase how delusion can redefine norms. However, challenging these norms invokes discomfort in society, as others prefer to maintain a shared reality that empowers their control. Rejecting limitations can lead to accusations of naivety, showcasing the tension between innovation and societal acceptance.
Choose delusion. Every single thing you think is "realistic" about your life is actually just someone else's delusion that you've agreed to live inside.
Nothing about how the world works is actually how the world works. It's just how the world works right now because enough people decided to keep doing it that way.
Every breakthrough in history happened because someone chose their delusion over consensus reality.
When you start acting like the rules don't apply to you, people get uncomfortable. They tell you you're being unrealistic or naive.
