Mandate of The Prime (F0)
Inquiry Statement
What do you want to do and what are you doing to get there?
Mandatum Primi
Name the most desired and realized version of yourself you can become, and measure every decision against it. This aim governs every other instrument, from the tools you craft to how you deploy them amidst the War of Wills; The Work Required then, is to become, at the core, the very person the opportunities of your ambitions find it easy to present themselves to.
Who were you in the past, and what have you done to create the person you are today? Who do you desire to be in the future, and what are the steps you plan to take, are taking, or avoiding, to bring that vision into reality?
We may learn or be trained to become extraordinarily disciplined, productive, ambitious, religious, successful, or even “self-improving” while moving toward ends we never consciously selected.
So, if you find yourself adrift, you need a solid heading to travel you from obscurity within whatever hell you've strayed into, back toward the path to progress you desire; you need to reconnect with where you're trying to go and begin making decisions like you're actually trying to get there.
Else, movement itself becomes mistaken for advancement, and we are made to dance while trapped in Plato's Rave on authoritarian puppet strings...mistaking shadows for truth along a path presented to us, until arriving at specifically fabricated ends by consequence of drift.
Mandatum Primi is Framework 0 (F0) in the Chaos series and establishes the governing principle for all else: Chaos causes entropic disorder through which we are forced to navigate, but doing so without proper orientation can also inspire movement while set to poor bearings.
Goals and ambitions will forever remain dreams and mere discussions until we align ourselves more perfectly with the version of ourselves we wish to become in the future.
We drift through life untethered to any specific goal of our own design, then cry out to false gods when we discover our future is marred by pain and obscurity, but if every decision and every setback were measured properly against the ultimate goal, how could it be possible to not succeed in all things?
The Prime supplies true orientation, that you may never be lost or question which direction is indeed your true route from ruin.
If you want to win the fight for your future, you must accept that you cannot forgo becoming an active participant in your own life nor doing the work which is required in order to create the best life possible.
"Why Not You?" - Dark Matter Dilemma
The shape of your Prime is determined by the most realized version of self that can presently be conceived.
That highest version can only come into existence if you follow the mandate of his making, meaning if you want ascension into a higher level of life, you must do the work of daily alignment. It is required that you take continual measurement of present action against the person you are attempting to become.
Every gorydamn day, I am guided by myself from my future days of glory which are surely to come to pass by the efforts of my own execution, and the steady and steadfast call of my decisions.
A Desired Future, reached by a Required Self, built through Present Decisions.
Mandatum Primi:
Name the most realized version of yourself you can become, then measure every meaningful decision against the person you have declared yourself capable of becoming. This aim governs every other instrument as the work required is not merely to pursue your ambitions, but to become, at the core, the very person to whom the opportunities of those ambitions can naturally present themselves
Put equal effort into answering “What do I want?” as “Who must I become for what I want to become possible?” and you will see progress.
