💫The Law of Being (and other opinions)💫
“Man has dominion over all things when he knows the Law of Being, and obeys it.”— Emmet Fox, “You Can Alter Your Life,” in The Golden Key and 22 Additional Essays (Merchant Books, 2015) There are many insights in this essay, but the question that stays with me is this: Will I ever truly know who I am? Lately, I’ve been forced to reconcile inner polarities—fear and love, security and freedom, service and self, and on it goes. The Law of Being suggests that once I know who I truly am, I’ll have dominion over all things Sam. But I can’t shake the sense that being is fluid, always changing, which leaves me lingering in the gray—a shade I’ve never been fully comfortable in. And that brings me to another thought: these “laws” we read about—the ones lining bookstore shelves, splattered with glossy covers and backed by entire Instagram movements—were, and are, written by people. Have I ever just sat still, without the Calm app or a YouTube voice guiding me, and asked what these laws mean to me? Do I have laws of my own—living, breathing, evolving with me? Which laws do you live by? Sit down. Get still. Maybe write this down: What do I both tell myself and listen to every single day? It might be time to rewrite the laws by which we live. 🌻
Outsourcing Definitions of Success
A month and a half ago, I quit a well-paying job, lost a promising offer, rented out my house, and moved in with my partner and his kids. Everything changed overnight — and the answers I once trusted started collapsing under their own weight. I realized I’d been chasing points instead of meaning.Money, followers, titles, “impact metrics”… all just versions of the same scoreboard designed to keep us playing. In Nexus, Yuval Noah Harari calls money a point system — a shared illusion we use to measure trust. But now, we’ve built systems that don’t just track what we buy, but who we are. He calls it peer-to-peer policing — a world where success isn’t freedom; it’s compliance. So I’m done chasing points. I’m creating my own game — one where meaning matters more than metrics. 👉 Read the full piece on Medium I’m trading in the scoreboard for something far more dangerous — self-sovereignty.

Welcome to HAVIK!
I created this community for people who are drained, frustrated, and ready to move on from the systems they were raised in. We’re here to learn, unlearn, and encourage one another to wreak HAVIK on everything that became our “normal” without our permission. Please introduce yourself and post some pics that tell the story of where you were, where you are, or where you want to go. SUPER glad you're here. P.s. I'm fully aware that the correct spelling is "havoc". :)
