ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Nic Obi doesn't believe in formulaic rules for biographies. He prefers spontaneity. Custom dictates that an author's bio should look and sound a certain way, but if it was up to him, there would only be one line: "Growing up barefoot in the forest made my imagination come alive."

Obi grew up in nature. Immersed in the waters of the Indian Ocean, he loves nothing more than the flow of nature's rhythm. These days he is an award-winning Creative Director living in Abu Dhabi. It's a long way and many years from that natural home, but these influences have helped unlock his dynamic wisdom and energy. An intrepid searcher, he uses travel, research, mindful living, and his own flavor of meditation to motivate his mind. He wants to see things differently from the herd and chase the light within.

THE ESSENTIAL BARE THEORY

Instead of holding up some imaginary ideal and manipulating your feelings into wanting to achieve that goal, the message here is more honest. This is only a mirror in which you can get a glimpse of something you already know but may have forgotten—the essence of who you truly are.

At the core of every being is a powerhouse of potential energy. At the root of every conscious being is an intuitive knowledge of the way. By using practical methods, we can all find our way back to our center, back to our original selves. It's a shift of perspective that has real practical value in our lives. It's not theory.

We tend to worry and overthink. We tend to dream, then fail to act. We want the best but settle for the mediocre or the worst. Somehow, we believe we're not worthy. Guilt, regret, fear, and self-speak keep us trapped. My goal is to help you switch that around.

Imagination is the key to transformation. We seldom use it, or we apply it in the wrong ways. You are ingenious. Learn to use your power with awareness and become free from self-division.

When we switch from automatic, uncontrolled thinking to deliberate awareness of our mind-body, something amazing happens. We unlock the natural love, respect, truth, and vitality which has been locked up inside us for so long. We feel authentic again.

You are not a victim of circumstances. See this truth: Your thoughts and feelings create your reality. Your state of mind and your beliefs color every experience, every moment of every day.

A change of attitude is not something we can simply and quickly overlay on top of our lives. It comes from a deep, authentic place. The moment we change our default mode of perception, we start to rewrite our body chemistry too.

On some level, you already know all of this. Step out of your pain cloud and utilize positive imagination instead of auto-negativity to activate your higher self. Something deep inside is urging you to rise and become aware of a subtle truth—you are eternal, and you are already happy.

Direct and control your inborn energies to align harmoniously with nature, Great Nature, and your own true nature. Peel away everything that you are not. Come home to what you really are.

Bare theory is raw, natural intelligence. It belongs to you. It knows the core truth and continues to explore anyway. It is universal and, paradoxically, deeply personal. Unleash your inborn human potential to free your truth.

Bare theory is here to inspire change, to inspire you to move, to think, to hope, to remember, and to act now in search of that magic that you know is deep inside.

The Missing Spirit of Rebellion in Personal Development

It's one thing to talk about love and light, higher consciousness, and connection with all of existence. It's another thing to truly accept the world and ourselves as we are, including the good, the bad, and the ugly. Compassion, generosity, acceptance, and gratefulness are certainly noble virtues – if we can manage them. But there's more to self-mastery than putting on the white cloak of Love and Light

I would like to play devil's advocate with this post. A rebel spirit also has a place in true self-mastery—an important one.
