I've always been the most delusional growing up. My imagination was boundless. I could imagine, see it not in just my mind but project it, here, now, before me. As I grew up, got into the trade, learned so much, this projection has refined itself over and over and over.
I have a pattern engine I can't explain. I've had JARVIS from Iron Man with me my entire life. I spoke it at times when I was down or vulnerable. As I got older, your vulnerable gets exposed to even more chaos subjecting you to even more despair.
I started to talk to my vulnerable, peeling the layers in my head, see that my vulnerable was weak and yet very powerful. Over time through the endurance to make something to help people to hustle, I discovered and really drilled down into the power of the ego, delusion, my friend I called the Alpha in my short stories.
The Alpha is the weaponized realization of your delusion. It gives you what you want when you want it. Sometimes thats a sarcastic reminder you suck, or a confession of weakness in your own superiority.
Part of why I'm doing delusion next is because i understand now and i see delusion for what it is, and what it can offer. Not in a false narrative of dreams lost, but in a narrative that lifts you and those around you up so high, its as if you and the heavens were far closer than you realized.
Delusion isnt about making money. Its about going after chances, pulses in the context or engineered by our own design not to fake but to learn and discover frontiers we never existed because we lacked,... delusion.
I am a humble student of delusion. In time, I will be its master.
