The Fix-It Fallacy: Why Self-Improvement Is a Lie and Your Soul Is Already Perfect
You have prayed for peace, gone to therapy, and exhausted every self-help trend, yet you still wake up feeling “dead inside”.
Why does God seem distant?
The problem isn’t your faith—it’s the very “human mind” you’ve been taught to use.
This mindset, rooted in the illusion of a lost, sinful soul and a distant deity, is the actual source of all your suffering, anxiety, and striving.
Stop trying to fix your flaws and embrace the only way out: recognizing that your Eternal SELF has never been broken, and that the Rest of God is a Present Perfection you can simply behold.
The common focus on self-improvement to end suffering is misplaced because the “self” being improved is the source of all limitations and restrictions. This flawed mindset and the false rules it generates are responsible for the pain experienced in circumstances characterized as horrible, painful, disruptive, and enslaving.
Self-improvement is called a “never-ending trap of suffering” because the concept of self-improvement itself is deemed a “never-ending trap of suffering.”
We have been falsely educated and indoctrinated to believe that God’s I-AM-Self-Image and Likeness—God’s very I-Am-Identity—is nothing more than a mortal body, and that the Soul, which is God, resides within that physical body.
Embracing SELF-Identification:
The actual focus should be on SELF-Identification, which is defined as recognizing that the Soul is already Eternal and Perfect. This recognition is presented as the only pathway to achieving True and lasting happiness, inner peace, and Genuine Healing
The Nature of God/Being:
The ultimate Eternal Truth is that there is only God Himself, which is BEING. Contrary to theological superstitious beliefs, the Spirit and the Soul have NEVER been separated nor divided, nor is the Soul lost. The Image and Likeness of God is God ITSELF. The Soul is a part of God’s Eternal Nature. God is not a SINNER. Everything is God Being; All Action, all Substance, and all of Existence is Life living. Happiness is attained through the Awareness of the Presence of God.
Your human “mind”, “being,” and “self”-identity are the product of theological superstitious beliefs. That mind that is controlling your thoughts, suggesting negative thinking and causing you pain and suffering. Here’s how:
The belief in sin and death gave birth to the general conviction of mortality and the belief that we are human beings.
This belief that the Spirit and the Soul are separated because of sin introduced a new mind and self different from the MIND of God, which is the ONLY MIND.
The belief that the Image and Likeness of God is a body within which is an encaged soul has no God in it because this theological superstitious claim creates a dimensional mind filled with assumptions about God.
God is NOT the Author of the Mindsets and Perceptions of Humans’ “Self and Being”.
Humanity and all its materiality are the product of theological superstitious beliefs. Theological superstitious beliefs, its way of thinking and being and its product are all material and external, and that is where it gets its power from. God has nothing to do with theological and religious superstitious beliefs and their thesis of life and about life. They appear to exist only in the realm of duality, anti-God
The Life of God is absent from the human mindset, which is why there is no happiness and why there is suffering, emptiness and lack of purpose and meaning.
Theological superstitious beliefs of sin and death, their indoctrination, conditionings are the springboard of the human mind. This is the mind that produces physical, mental and emotional sufferings. The product or offspring of this mind is the idea that you are a human being.
That is the mind or the screen behind which satan, ego, evil, with all its rationalization, has hidden lest its impractical, impossible appropriations appear in all their nakedness. Sin and death are the figments of ignorance of Life, with which humans have clothed themselves, the tatters of supposition, sense-perception, education, hypnotic acquiescence
The human idea of the body, mind serves as a concealing screen, a means by which satan, the ego, evil disguise the sheer impracticality and impossibility of their assumptions and actions. Humanity’s self-inflicted struggles, pain and sufferings—what are often termed ‘sin and death’—are merely the imagined consequences of an ignorance regarding the True Nature of Life. These struggles are the threadbare coverings woven from mere supposition, the dictates of sense-perception, the conditioning of education, and unquestioning, hypnotic agreement.
The core difference between Self-Improvement and SELF-Identification lies in how they view the fundamental nature of an individual’s identity. Self-Improvement operates on the belief that a person is inherently flawed and needs to be fixed, whereas SELF-Identification is based on the premise that the Soul is already Perfect and was never lost; people have merely been conditioned to believe in a LIE obscured by false theological and superstitious realities and mental conditioning
The Self-Improvement Paradigm
- The View of the Self: It treats the individual as a “mortal human being” and a work in progress that requires constant optimization.
- The Approach to Healing: It relies on an egocentric “fix-it” mentality, emphasizing external tools, habit modification, and productivity hacks to fix biological or mental flaws. It treats suffering, depression, and anxiety as “real” conditions that require treatment.
- The Ultimate Goal: It drives a performance-oriented “Bad-to-OK” journey fueled by desperation and striving, with the aim of reaching a future state of “greatness”.
The SELF-Identification Paradigm
The View of the Self:
It shifts the focus away from a mortal self-image, encouraging individuals to adopt an “Eternal-SELF-Identity” (or “God-SELF-I-AM-SELF-Individual-Identity”), viewing the SELF as an Eternal expression of God’s Mind.
The Approach to Healing:
Focuses on the Eternal FACT that the Image and Likeness of God has never sinned; the Spirit and the Soul have never been separated nor divided, contrary to theology.
There is only God Himself, being. BEING, being Itself only. This Eternal Truth does not give rise to God’s Image and Likeness being a mortal being, a production, an accretion.
All is God, being God.
All Action is God.
All Substance is God.
All of Existence is Life living. There is nothing else.
This transcends the need for External fixing by adopting an “Eternal Perspective”. It posits that human suffering is not a real condition, but rather an illusion or “mistaken identity” caused by Satan, evil, devil, ego-mind and “theological superstitious beliefs,” all of which are the products of theological superstition.
The Ultimate Goal: Recognition that there is ONLY ONE STATE OF MIND
The “Recognition that there is ONLY ONE STATE OF MIND.” That the Image and Likeness of God, the Soul exists in unity with Eternity as a Spiritual Reality and Spirit as IT’s state of BEING. This recognition replaces the search for self-help with a “Constant Assurance of Perfection,“ Happiness, Inner Peace, THE REST OF GOD and Genuine Healing.
In the Soul Care, my Spiritual Wellness Boutique, treatments, and the concept that God’s Eternal Mind is the only true Reality (often referred to as the “Eternal Allness of God”) means that God is the only existing Substance, Power, and Reality.
This Eternal framework for Genuine Healing for Ego’s Victims of the Lost Souls asserts several key points about existence:
- The Physical World is Not Independent: The physical universe and human bodies do not exist as independent, standalone entities. Instead, the Physical World and Bodies exist merely as manifestations of God’s Invisible Substance that is within God’s Image and Likeness, which is the Soul.
- Mortal Experiences are Illusions: Because God’s Mind is the Singular Reality (“What IS”), the mortal human world we perceive is actually a “false reality” disguised by the ego-mind. Consequently, human experiences like birth, suffering, disease, sin, evil, and death are considered mere illusions that possess no actual presence or real power.
- Suffering is a “Mistaken Identity”: Recognizing God’s Mind as the only reality fundamentally changes how an individual approaches their struggles. It means human suffering is not a “real” condition that needs biological or mental treatment, but rather a “mistaken identity” rooted in “theological superstitious beliefs”.
This framework outlines the core Eternal and practical distinctions between the two paradigms: the Human Mind (rooted in Self-Improvement) and God’s Eternal MIND (centered on SELF-Identification).—–A Framework: God’s Eternal MIND vs. The Human Mind
| Feature | The Human Mind / Self-Improvement Paradigm | God’s Eternal MIND / SELF-Identification Paradigm |
| Fundamental View of SELF | The individual is a “mortal human being” and a work in progress that requires constant optimization. The self is inherently flawed and needs to be fixed. | The self is an “Eternal-SELF-Identity”, viewed as an Eternal expression of God’s Mind. The Soul is already perfect and was never lost. The Image and Likeness of God is God’s INDIVIDUAL-SELF-Identity |
| Root Source of Identity/Belief | Theological superstitious beliefs of sin and death, their indoctrination, and conditionings. This includes the belief that the Spirit and the Soul are separated because of sin. | God’s Eternal Mind is the ONLY Mind and the only true Reality (the “Eternal Allness of God Spiritual Reality”). The Spirit and the Soul are ONE SINGLE ETERNAL BEING functioning together as ONE SINGLE BEING. |
| View of Suffering & Reality | Human suffering (physical, mental, and emotional) is a product of this mind. Suffering, depression, and anxiety are treated as “real” conditions that require treatment. | Suffering is a “mistaken identity” or illusion caused by the ego-mind and false theological superstitious beliefs. Mortal experiences like disease, sin, and death are considered mere illusions that possess no actual power. |
| Approach to Healing/Peace | Relies on an egocentric “fix-it” mentality. Emphasizes external tools, habit modification, and productivity hacks. This is a continuous fixing of the human “self”. | Focuses on the Eternal FACT that the Image and Likeness of God has never sinned; the Spirit and the Soul have never been separated nor divided, theology to the contrary. There is only God Himself, being. Being, being Itself only. This Eternal Truth does not give rise to the God’s Image and Likeness being a mortal human being, a production, an accretion. All is God, being God. All Action is God. All Substance is God. All of Existence is Life living. There is nothing else. . This transcends the need for External fixing by adopting an “Eternal Perspective”. |
| Ultimate Goal | A performance-oriented “Bad-to-OK” journey fueled by striving, aiming for a future state of “greatness”. | The “Recognition that there is ONLY ONE STATE” of the Image and Likeness of God, the Soul existing unity with the Eternal. This recognition replaces the search for self-help with a “Constant Assurance of Perfection” Happiness and Inner Peace or THE REST OF GOD. |
| View of the Physical World | The physical universe and human body are treated as independent, standalone entities. | The Physical World and Bodies exist merely as manifestations of God’s Invisible Substance that is within God’s Image and Likeness, which is the Soul. |
The core error, or “false education,” is the belief that God’s I-Am-Identity is a mortal body containing a separate Soul, leading to the false concepts of sin and death, suffering, and conflict.
In opposition to this, the Eternal Truth asserts that only God—Mind, Life, Spirit—exists as the ONLY Action, Substance, and Power; all apparent forms, including the body and the universe, are Perfect, the body, the universe and everything within are ideas held within God’s all-inclusive Mind, and thus have no power, intelligence, or independent existence.
True salvation or healing starts from the “Self-Identification” that the Individual I-Am-SELF-Identity is Eternally and Indivisibly ONE with this Omnipresent Perfection, which leaves no room for satan, evil, ego, disease, limiting beliefs, or trauma. depression, anxiety or the need to strive for a heaven that is already Present.
By adopting this “Eternal Perspective,” individuals realize that the ego and external obstacles are not real. This allows them to deconstruct their mistaken human identity and achieve the “ ONLY ONE STATE OF MIND” that their Soul is already perfectly united with the Spirit according to God’s stand of Eternity.
