CLARITY AND WHY THIS IN 2026

This year, I am engaging the mind to realise the impermanence of life.

Nothing is guaranteed except death — I think Kanye said that.

That understanding is why I am delving deeply into self-experimentation. Society and by this I mean us, together with our environment ,has conditioned us to follow a certain predetermined path.

This is not a new concept, and many have spoken about it before.

You might be curious to know how this works in my situation.

Well, building clarity has helped me develop a sense of control. This applies to different areas of my life: spirituality, philosophy, and emotional intelligence. I am doing this through reading, observing, contemplating, meditating, self-inquiring, and taking long walks.

I am very mindful of hints toward a new purpose and intentional about not letting life lessons pass me by.

I am identifying the gaps between where I am and where I want to be, noting the problems standing in my way, and consistently building experiments aligned with my goals.

What is your biggest problem right now? Think about it.

Gaining clarity and staying consistent in my endeavours has completely transformed how I see the world.

I now see opportunities where, in the past, I saw fear.

I am learning how systems help me stay consistent — thanks to reading Atomic Habits.

A self-generated goal that expands your mind in something important to you is a favour you can do for yourself in 2026. This requires falling in love with the endless string of problems that life throws at you. You are better off with problems than with the pain of stagnation and apathy.

Surround yourself with assertive individuals who set their own course.

I listen to people I admire, read their books, and learn how they handled challenges, while keeping in mind that my journey and circumstances are unique.

Nobody is me except me. Take advice with a pinch of salt — even this. Learn through curiosity. Create solutions to the problems of life.

Push humanity forward.
