The pathless path offers significant personal growth however not everyone may see this and one may ask themself "will the people in your life love you less? It’s like when you look out at the ocean, you see hundreds, thousands of waves, of all shapes and sizes, which seem to be very separate from each other. My story is not one of courage, but of pragmatic and safe experiments, experiences, and questioning over several years.

As the name “non-duality” implies, there are not two different states of being – everything is connected to everything else. There had to be a better way than the default options of "Summer Fridays" and "flexible work," that never seem to make less anxiety or stress-ridden. Therefore it's important that we keep evolving with the times and taking the perpetual mindset of constant reinvention of ourselves to keep pace with change. And you should always experiment with different types of work to find out which work you like the best and build your life around the type of work that you enjoy. Enough is seeing a clear opportunity that will increase my earnings in the short‑term, but knowing that saying “no” will open me up to things that might be even more valuable in ways that are hard to understand.Millerd is advocating deliberate practice by not just taking a “leap of faith,” but prototyping your lifestyle and actually practicing what you want to do before you make any massive and possibly irrevocable changes to your current lifestyle. To her, the “best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you. On the pathless path, once you open yourself up to possibilities and start experimenting with different ways of working and living, the biggest problem is the paradox of choice. We spend time navigating bad tests ("gaming the system") by clever tricks in corporate jobs by getting certain senior leaders to like you, dressing a certain way and speaking a certain way.

What this means is that the very one (the ”me”) wanting to practice non-duality is the very illusion that non-dual philosophy is geared toward dismantling. As I’ve simplified my life and embraced minimalism, I noticed that I have had more time and have been in less of a rush to “do things,” giving me the chance to take routes that don’t make sense, go for random walks through the city and make time to have conversations I wouldn’t otherwise have.Release yourself from the concept of full-time employment and realize that there are an infinite amount of possibilities out there. It is only when we cling to the logic of the default path that we fail to see the possibilities for making that happen. It’s knowing that I have enough friends that would gladly open their door and share a meal if I was ever in need.
