Football Season

Football season is here.

And every Saturday or Sunday (or really virtually any day of the week), millions of people willingly hand their emotional well-being over to a group of men.

“Must win game”

“Super Bowl or bust”

“Natty or nothing!”

“I’ll be sick if we lose this one”

If you are into Reality Transurfing this is the very definition of a pendulum. And this one is pervasive!

Loving your favorite football team is 100% a giant collective energy structure. Excitement, anxiety, tribal loyalty, anger, hope and even fear are the energies. And the bigger the game the stronger the pendulum grows.

And before I got into Reality Transurfing this pendulum totally had its hooks in me. When my team lost I was borderline miserable.

So how did I apply Reality Transurfing to the maddening world of loving your favorite team?

Well I am still a fan. I still sometimes scream at the missed tackle or that confusing play call. I still celebrate a touchdown. I really want my team to win.

The difference is importance.

Pretty simple in theory: “I want my team to win” versus “My mental and emotional state depends on my team winning.”

The first option is my preference. I want my damn team to win every damn football game.

The second option is what gives the sports pendulum control.

Now I watch my team’s games as an observer (well its a long football season so maybe better to say “I intend to watch” lol.)

Interception? Damn, that sucks.

Game-winning fourth quarter drive? Shit, that’s awesome!

What Reality Transurfing teaches about pendulums is to keep a bit of distance. Vadim Zeland refers to this as letting the pendulum get its hooks into you. I watch the game. I don’t become the game.

I don’t put away my feelings about the game. I don’t let them take over.

Cheer. Enjoy. Get Excited. Get Mad.

It’s all good but remember, it’s JUST a football game.

Not your reality!
