Life is a nasty, mean, and straight-up savage beast. But, if it's constantly coming at you with all that it's got, why can't you return the favor? In a genre filled with inspiration, optimism, and positivity, Erika Ryles gets down and dirty explaining the curveballs that life throws at us, how not to give a sh*t about them, and not be a jackass while doing so. This self-help book doesn't guarantee that all the problems in your life will be resolved after one read, nor does it tell you that life is an endless downpour of tragedy, betrayal, and deception. It only lets you see things as they truly are from the perspective of someone who has seen it all.
How would you feel if someone kept punching you in the face? I know I would want to fight back. This is what life does. So, why don't we tell it to back off and handle it like a show pony? How to Not Give a Shit and Not Be a Dumb Ass in the Process is a short yet powerful book from Erika Ryles, who doesn't sugarcoat anything. She tells it like it is, and it is nasty. A fresh take on the self-help genre, Erika Ryles doesn't tell you to embrace the power of positivity. We have heard this a million times before. Instead, she opens your eyes to the world around you, and why you need to start taking control instead of giving it away. Erika emphasizes the realization and remedy of one of the fundamental flaws in our mindset: No one stops you from achieving anything, except you. While some doubt they'll ever make it, Erika serves as a reminder that your dreams can still be realized. Most of us have lost touch with our playful inner child under the crushing weight of the world's troubles and the grueling reality of responsibilities. Some may have even forgotten what carefree happiness and laughter flowing from one's soul feels like. Our happy places that were once a safe mental escape of peace and tranquility, are in desperate need of rehab because we still carry inescapable baggage and sand there, too. We all carry a lot of burdens on our way to the finish line. Take control of your destiny and not be a bystander to the very people, things, or events trying to rob you blind of any happiness. Are you ready to cut loose some dead weight to get to your first place?

 

Preface


Many people are awakening and evolving spiritually. The symptoms mimic various things such as mental health issues— new, old, or exacerbated—and physical changes that look like various conditions such as the flu, which in itself can be scary, especially with the Coronavirus running rampant at the moment. There are lots of people coming into their “new” selves, so this and the relevant subject matters need to be discussed. There are many levels of spiritual growth and expansion, and this book will help those struggling in critical areas to prepare for these changes at the human level. Too many humans are having trouble with mental health—particularly, as it pertains to their spiritual health.

Psychology is the study of the mind, but the mind is a direct connection to the soul—the connection between our earthly existence and our connection to our higher selves, which, in effect, is our tether to a Higher Source. It is common knowledge that we are all made in God’s likeness, as we are all God’s children, but many people do not fully understand what this means. If we are extensions of God and God’s presence in the Universe, why do we treat one another so horribly, and why do we have things like anxiety, depression, etc.? Are we saying that God is depressed or has fears? Are we saying that God treats Her children badly, which makes it okay for us to do? Many questions can arise in people’s minds when we allow these lower vibrating energies and thoughts to take over our lives. Instead, society has conditioned us to believe that God is only a sometimey afterthought or task—not a true way of being and worshipping.

Humankind needs help reconnecting with God and our Souls. There are cosmic, dimensional, and spiritual shifts happening, so merely going to church and reading the Bible is not enough at this juncture. These shifts are affecting our actions because our psyche is being affected and upgraded. We cannot remain in the mindsets and perspectives that we have been in for millennia, and we cannot force ourselves to stay in it any longer by using interventions that hinder our growth. When we try to enforce living in the world of Caesar, masking our true selves, or both, the Universe will force us to do its Will. It usually shows up in the forms we see—increased violence toward one another, wars, mental health imbalances, substance abuse to run from the despair felt in this reality, suicide, etc. We have to be who we were born to be despite what society wants of us or the traumatic experiences that were only meant to help us become stronger. Usually, the fight to be something we are not comes from the immense fear of disappointing others or their judgment. Fuck others and do you, as long as you are not hurting or killing other people; only God can tell you otherwise.

Although I will reference some of the ridiculousness going on in this current era of idiocy in our country as it relates to politics and racism, this is not a political book. However, I will talk about racism as it pertains to humanity and why it is important that it has to end for everyone’s sake, not just that of people of color. If this is a sensitive subject that will get your pressure up, do not read it—especially, if you are not mature enough in yourself to handle what is being said by positively doing something about it, irrespective of your color. I will also mention things of a religious nature and use Jesus as my point of reference since he is more widely known, but this is not a Sunday school lesson—well, not wholly anyway. I reference religion and Jesus a lot to poke holes in what some people like to hide behind to base their prejudices on by saying that this is what God wants for them to do. You do not have to believe in God to read this book. The messages will still apply to you. This is a real-people, real-world book, and I use personal experiences and what we are facing today in America as real-world examples of my messages on returning to a spiritually-centric humankind that doesn’t give a shit about what you have, what you look like or how you live your private life. The book is not in any particular subject order but I hope it helps mold your thoughts and patterns throughout the reading. My biggest hope is that by the end of this book, you will be a more loving and open-thought person. If you are sensitive and cannot handle gutter language or truth of any kind, give this book to someone ready to hear these raw messages. Humanity is tired of individuals’ selfishness and stupidity towards others, especially when it affects and is forced upon our private lives. The world is a beautiful soup made up of wonderful ingredients of different people of all subraces, shapes, sizes, and beliefs, and a menagerie of plant and wildlife supporting our existence. Every human is part of the same human race, and each life is equal in value. I will use the term “subrace” throughout this book to emphasize this when speaking of specific groups of people. If God did not want us to be free individual beings in this race, we would all have been created to be and look completely the same in every single way, down to the curls in our pubes. This world as we know it is not the same, nor are the people in it. It will never be the same again, nor will we, especially in this nation. We can no longer treat people horrendously because God made each of us special.

Over the ages, the patriarchy has been painting a selfish and strange world without compassion and empathy for others solely to ultimately cater to them, dressing it up as God’s Will, through their free will. They have forgotten that this marble is made for and of various subraces and sexes of beings. This, alone, has purposefully ostracized many groups of people, marginalized many subraces, and set a precedent that it is and was okay to separate people on these bases, as long as you were a man doing it. It is time for that world to die away. Quite simply, this is an informal book of thought and spiritual exercise to attain a higher level of being for the betterment of humanity, but beginning with the individual. I will use simple prose and repurpose words to illustrate points so that anyone can absorb the information herein, and enjoy doing so. Also, I am a realist, so the events and language will be as such, alongside loads of facetiousness, sarcasm, and dry humor. There will be colloquialisms, some ungrammatical profundities, and very explicit language, but it is merely to vividly animate the malfeasance and nonfeasance in humankind and drive home the lessons.

I, also, will not supply tons of sources for a lot of my statements. However, naturally, I will cite any quotes and things of that nature, but my concepts or ideas and information that stem from common knowledge, I will not. I will not do someone’s learning and research for them. We have developed into an intellectually lazy race of humans, and technology is to blame. I remember every question I had was answered by a book—whether one in an extensive collection of encyclopedias or a library. I spent years learning and reading about almost every subject matter that has crossed my path, and have exorbitant student loans like the next person. If any individual questions the veracity of any of this information, they can freely use whatever search engine or information-gathering medium they choose and do the research themselves; or, they can kindly contribute to my student loans and for publishing the additional pages, and I will research and teach whatever is thrown my way. I actually use my brain and only speak on things I firmly know and not just spew half-assed information for the masses to absorb. We have enough of that going on. I will always be sure that the information I convey will be sensible and valuable to the reader, so readers can be confident that the information they receive from this and subsequent media is balanced and truthful. We tend to judge the information out here based on whether or not there is empirical scientific data to support one’s feelings and thoughts (which actually aren’t scientific in origin). However, not everything has to be fact-checked against someone else’s biased, and sometimes erroneous, information. It is up to us as individuals to learn on our own in order to understand the subject matter. At this point, can we trust any data that comes out? Science was originally about finding new ways to help humanity in understanding how things worked. Although many good scientists exist, science is now more about career progression, profit, and playing God or refuting Her existence, even to the detriment of innocent lives.

 

The same applies to some of the methods I recommend. I am not going to place sources for someone to learn how to meditate, for example, because there are many styles of doing so. Prayer is a form of meditation but I am not going to give instructions or hunt down a YouTube video for you on how to pray and how to do it in an improved meditative way for your purpose. There are plenty of human sources, informational resources and media for everyone to tap to gain further knowledge of any given subject and to be their own investigative spiritual scientist to discover what spiritually works for them. I am not here to hold hands and teach anyone how to learn. I am simply here to provoke abstract thought of why we are here at this critical juncture and how to prepare yourself and your Soul to survive it. Since I mentioned it, prayer is a good place to start.

 

When I say “you,” please use what you learned in school about context clues in a sentence to understand who I am referencing. Most times, it will be general or third person examples, while...
