Hey Legend,
📝Steve Jobs wore the same black turtleneck and blue jeans every day. It quickly became his trademark look. For Jobs, this practice was a means to reduce 📝Decision Fatigue; a deterioration of the quality of one's decisions over the course of a typical day. 📝Barack Obama, 📝Mark Zuckerberg, and 📝Chris Sacca have all been known to reduce their everyday clothing down to one or two outfits in order to limit the number of decisions they make in a day.
Since 2016, I've been wearing the same(ish) high-top shoes, denim jeans, and leather riding jacket. I'd spice things up with one of many colored t-shirts, but would always be carrying my motorcycle helmet. While my wardrobe was born from necessity (📝ATGATT) it became, in a way, my signature look.
As my energy has been transitioning away from living a two-wheeled life 🏍 with 📝Jessica, I've recognized the opportunity to transition my wardrobe too.
In my portrayal of 'The 📝Spiritual Bro' character, ideas for graphic tees have manifested in abundance. This is unsurprising as the domain 'spiritualbro.com' was first purchased as a parody of the 📝Spiritual Gangster clothing brand.
The two energies eventually became 📝one and I decided to play with the idea of using the 📝Spiritual Bro Store catalog as my daily uniform. I ordered a few sample shirts to see which material and fit I liked. My favorite shirt being...
Over the last few years, I've become familiar with how people react to bold statements and have worn everything from 📝dick pics to a 📝glowing hoodie.
📝The Magical Game shirt felt 📝mystical in its ability to attract resonance. So much so that it defied comparison with previous 📝play. Moreover, the reaction was eerily consistent at networking events, social gatherings, etc. It called me to question why and, in soliciting reflections, prompted great conversations.
I realized that the 'Spiritual Gangster' shirt was remarking on what's inside the shirt while 'The Magical Game' shirt was remarking on what's outside of it. The former is an assertion of 📝ego, the latter is an acknowledgement of a shared experience. The former projects perspective, the latter appreciates 📝beauty.
Prompted by her chest tattoo remarking on the nature of perspective with the text, "I am you and what I see is me." I found myself discussing this with Brooke, my vegan cheese dealer at the 📝Culver City Farmers' Market.
An hour later, I discovered 📝Storyteller Consciousness in 📝The Ascent of Humanity. Instead of describing a reality "out there", a storyteller consciousness is being aware that we create reality with our story about it.
America is a story. France is a story. The law is a story. Words and symbols, that is all, they each have no more meaning than what we agree upon.
These discoveries, for me, clarified the intention of my new wardrobe and of Spiritual Bro's catalog. Both will tell the stories of what 📝Charles Eisenstein calls 📝The Age of Reunion; a return to an original psychology of abundance at a higher order of complexity (which is the stated mission on inc.one).
A t-shirt expressing the individuality of the wearer so too creates walls between them and those perceiving. If we reposition the definition of 'self' from our 📝Skin Encapsulated Ego to that of the totality of existence, we show 📝oneness.
Whether it's a t-shirt or a text message, let's tell the stories we choose to live.
🙏
