The red/blue pill scene from the Movie “The Matrix” is a great metaphor for explaining our first guiding principle of choosing to take both parts of the Journey.
The blue pill is all about continuing on the same journey with the same beliefs and values that you have always had. In all likelihood your life has been relatively comfortable and/or you think you have mastered the programming and learnt to play the "game" quite well. There is still plenty of fear in your life but there hasn’t been enough leverage or shitty events for you to seriously question doing anything different. You would rather remain ignorant because you feel you have too much to lose and therefore the risk of taking the red pill would be too great for you. There would be no second part of the journey for you and indeed you continue to wake up in your bed each day and believe what you have been conditioned to believe.
On the other hand, if life has dealt you crisis after crisis, you probably have become more willing to explore alternative approaches because all your current beliefs and values just don’t seem to be working for you. You do feel trapped, stuck in an endless loop and exhausted from all the continual striving but never arriving. So, when presented with the red pill you are ready and willing to explore another way. As an added incentive and to seal the choice the perfectly timed offer of “I’m only offering you the truth…nothing more” is brilliant and totally in synch with your journey to come. It doesn’t mean what happens next is going to be easy or simple and things may even get worse before they get better but you will be shown the truth for what may be the first time ever.
We are all about helping you on your journey once you are ready to choose the red pill. Let us know if you are indeed ready to do so...
