Alan Watts said "You’re Under No Obligation To Be The Same Person You Were 5 Minutes Ago." A quote that is liberating if fully internalized. You have no obligation to remain the same as you were yesterday, every new moment is a chance to reinvent yourself. The only thing that stops us is our EGO.

Tony Robbins even pointed this out when he said “The most powerful force in the human psyche is people’s need for their words and actions to stay consistent with their IDENTITY – how we define ourselves.”

We often hold onto our EGO (our self made us) with a vice grip. Our Ego is shaped through years of memories, societal conditioning, and the stories we tell ourselves. Our view of ourselves is completely an illusion a self-made one, ask a scientist where this 'self' resides and they won't be able to tell you.

This 'self' is what stops us from doing things that we need to do in order to advance ourselves. If you ever hear words such as "nah I would never do that", "That's not me", that is the EGO talking. The EGO we create loves to remain rigid, it loathes the word 'evolution'. Why do you think people love comfort zones? Leaving them alludes to 'evolution' something the EGO can't have.

Those who wake up from a coma after losing their memories often come back with different personality traits, their previous idea of themselves destroyed by some injury.

You and I can do the same, we can consciously choose to say "fuck you" to the old idea of ourselves and take on new paradigms that are more helpful.
Once you remove the limitation of your mind you are truly free to do whatever you want.

• The Obese person who has never exercised can start at any second
• The person with social anxiety can decide to talk to the girl
• The person with low self-esteem can decide to feel good about themselves for once

The gates of self-actualization open up when you truly believe in Alan Watts assertion.
