Get Out of Here Alive Quotes

“In today’s mesmerizing digital landscape, our attention is madly sought after. Algorithms are ingeniously designed to keep us hooked like addicts by feeding us mainlines tailored to hold us captive—in mind and perhaps eventually even in body.”

“For most of the population these days, the only thing that ever dances is a pair of thumbs texting. No wonder people are aging so fast on the Ship of Fools sailing Titanic-like through today into no tomorrow.

As people’s souls shrink through lack of movement, their connective tissue hardens and their bones turn brittle. This isn’t metaphoric. This is the mind-body-spirit connection on full display, for anyone who cares to contemplate its cause and effects, in real time.”

“If our desire is to enjoy and perhaps eventually transcend the Matrix, we must select with great circumspection the thoughts we wish to energize and direct our focus only toward that which invigorates and empowers us. Anything else simply isn’t … worth your attention.”

“To have a knee-jerk reaction to technology is to think like a victim. This is how the Dragon wants you to think—in all ways at all times. Its entire control apparatus is predicated on your tacit or explicit acceptance of victim mentality.

I’d argue that this even applies to the world’s predatory class, the so-called elites, those puffed-up minions who, while they may get a rush out of preying on others, must on some level suspect they themselves are ultimately just Dragon food.

But we, not technology, and not even the Dragon, are the real creators here. The Dragon knows this. That’s why it uses us to build its world for it, since apparently it can’t do so on its own—and it’s high time we figured this out for ourselves.”

― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“When we resist the urge to respond impulsively, and plant ourselves in our center as opposed to grasping at straws outside ourselves, we tap into a wellspring of inner fortitude.

Such mindful silence allows us to detach from the heat of the moment and respond with clarity rather than reactivity. Choosing silence more and more, we lose less and less energy to ‘dumb shit,’ as I like to say, while intelligently reclaiming our power faster and faster.”

― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“Always bear in mind that the only person whose judgement matters is yourself. If you can learn to transform self-judgment into good judgment, a.k.a. wise circumspection, you’ve clearly shaken off some of the Dragon’s spell and already have one foot halfway out the door of this construct.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“What will you say when the Grim Reaper suddenly appears and asks, ‘What do you have to show for your life?’

In a world of many time-consuming pursuits, most utterly inane and many major drags on our creative potential, if your answer is ‘Not much,’ it’s at least worth considering that you’ve spent your time wisely.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“The possibility of waking up from (or even in) the dream offers a glimmer of hope, a sense that there’s more to existence than this mundane rat race. It suggests that we’re not just NPCs, non-player characters in a preprogrammed reality—but that, instead, we’re capable of becoming truly conscious players with the power to shape our own destinies.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“This ‘reality’ is so obviously unreal. It’s like bad screenplay writing. No matter how many times you see the same tired script playing out on the world stage, if you can manage to think for yourself just a little, it’s simply not believable.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“When you step back from it, you realize that the whole
idea of so many fearful conspiracies proliferating like
harmful bacteria everywhere isn’t just surreal or overkill, it’s ludicrous.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“Hope panhandles while fear sells like hotcakes.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“Our feelings, thoughts, beliefs and even expectations act as filters through which our imaginations initiate the process of generating our particular experienced reality. These filters influence our interpretation of events, our interactions with others, and even our physical health.”

― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“When you invest your attention in a particular line of ‘truthing,’ you’re choosing to buy into (energetically support or pay for with your attention) somebody (or something) else’s narrative, simple as that.

We can easily extrapolate this dynamic even to works of literature, movies, shows, music and other forms of mind manipulation on whose altars you offer up the sacred gift of your attention. When you think about it this way, human sacrifice is more prevalent today than ever!”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“It’s widely acknowledged by many pundits that we no
longer live in an age of news, but of narrative as news. But what if this is old news? What if things have always been this way?”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“When you give doomsday or other fearmongering cults your attention, just your attention, simply by listening to their words, and certainly by subscribing to them, sending them likes, shares, follows and even money, you’re offering up your precious power in promotion of Doomsday.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“Where power is concerned, there’s no judgement, no duality, no left and right, no yin and yang, no ‘good’ vs. ‘evil.’

Universally speaking, all that matters is power, pure and simple. This is why in world mythology the seemingly antithetical archetypes of creation and destruction are often wedded in the same god or goddess.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“Imagination can be concentrated by attention to build
positive outcomes—harmonious structures, communities, technologies, even worlds—but it can just as easily be harnessed to create hell on earth.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“The conscious energy of attention can be used to do literally anything because it’s a focalization of the imagination, the binding life force that amalgamates thoughts, emotions and beliefs into a powerfully creative gestalt.

You could also call this force chi, prana, kundalini, torsion energy, scalar waves, even mojo. These are all merely variations on the central theme of all Matrix energy dynamics: people power.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“We might think of loosh as the form of human energy consciousness adopts as it slides toward being unconscious through traumatization and other negative forms of behavioral engineering.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“We’re at a crossroads in human history. The digital age has unearthed unprecedented access to information and connection, but it has also unleashed a torrent of negativity and manipulation.

The responsibility lies with each of us to become conscious stewards of our own minds. Our challenge (and a challenging one it is!) is to cultivate discernment in the information we consume minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“Every thought we think is like a brush stroke on the
canvas of our lives. Let’s choose our thoughts, then, as a great artist painting a masterpiece of joy, love, success, and fulfillment.”
― Sol Luckman, Get Out of Here Alive: Inner Alchemy & Immortality

“When we focus on positive thoughts, we attract positive experiences into our field of awareness. Conversely, when we dwell on negativity, we invite more negativity into our experience.

This isn’t to say we should ignore challenges or pretend everything’s hunky-dory when it obviously isn’t. Don’t be an ostrich and bury your head in the sand when shit’s hitting the fan.

Rather, the idea is to choose to approach life—even its trying moments—with an upbeat and proactive mindset, believing in our ability to overcome obstacles and create a better future … at least for ourselves.”
