Cheat code 2, don’t be desperate I believe we live in a computer simulation. Our reality is literally like a video game. And I’ve found some cheat codes that have made my life really easy and enjoyable. I shared the first one in the previous video. Here’s the second one: Don’t be desperate. You must have observed that the universe tends to give you what you want when you’re not too excited about it anymore. When not getting that thing would no longer make you sad. Notice this. When you want something badly—you want a job badly, you want this woman badly, you want money badly—and you’re scrambling for it, you tend not to get it. Because you’re desperate. When you want it the most, you tend not to get it. It’s almost like it’s coded into the very design of this game. But when the years have gone by, and you’ve made peace with not having the thing… when you’ve found happiness without it, without being desperate for it—that’s when the thing comes walking to you. Now I’m not saying you won’t feel happy when you finally get it. You may feel happy, you may feel overwhelmed, your eyes may even tear up because you have worked and waited patiently so long. But the happiness you feel won’t be this bouncing-off-the-walls excitement. It will be of a more sublime nature. Now, there will be exceptions—sometimes you are very excited and desperate for something, and you still get it. You’re bouncing off the walls with joy. But that also means you’ll be that much more prone to sadness when you lose it. And lose it, you will. So I’ve thoroughly noticed and understood this design of the game: finding happiness and making peace has to happen first. Once you live happily, you become a magnet for the things you once wanted desperately. If you master applying this cheat code, your life will be transformed.
