Don't think, Act.
I was told this by my guardian a little while ago, it sounded simple at first, which it is, as instructions from the Gods are never complicated and always perfectly encapsulate profound things in as few words as possible. Despite that it took me a little while to fully figure out what it meant to me.
I wanted to explain this here for any Satanists who may be dealing with things such as procrastination, doubts, confusion, running in circles and not making any progress, etc.
There's a second line that goes along with this, "Do what you know". Most of you here know what you should do. What causes one to experience doubts or procrastination or any of that sort, is when one excessively thinks. The thoughts from the left side brain interfere with the knowledge of the right, they distract one from what one should do, interfere with your plans or routine, etc.
Thinking should be reserved for certain specific times, such as when one is learning, creating, educating, reflecting, studying, researching, etc. There are times when thinking is necessary and times where thinking is excessive because one already knows what they need and thus any further thought only distracts and interferes.
This is the case with spiritual advancement and also other things in life. If one has passed the stage of initial learning and one is beginning to walk the path of advancement by applying what one has learned, you don't need to think anymore on what it is you need to do.
Thinking is to prepare the mind for the act that one wants to take or commit to. When one begins to meditate and advance spiritually, it is important to separate thought and action so that as an example, when one wakes up you don't get distracted and can do what you know you need to do, i.e, your daily morning meditation, as well as other things required, rather than waste the day away doing useless things.
After one has done what they know they need to do, i.e, Acted upon what you know/need, you can let yourself have as much downtime as you want, let your mind run and just unwind in whatever way suits you, but keep this at bay by silencing your thoughts at least until you have finished what you should.
If one let's themselves think excessively or when unnecessary, thoughts will form that distract from what you need to do. Feelings fall into the same category, many feelings are derived from thoughts, and often serve no purpose other than to distract and prevent one from doing what they already know is right.
Such as feelings of not wanting to do something in the moment, feelings of anxiety, doubts to the effectiveness or otherwise of what you are doing, thoughts unrelated to what you need to do in the moment. Doubt is a common emotion that holds many people back, but doubt is often self caused. There's doubt derived from actual lack of knowledge, and doubt derived from various other emotions, external or internal sources. The latter is unnecessary altogether, and only serves to hold one back in ones endeavors.
The key to handling these things and moving past them so these no longer hold you back, is to circumvent thought altogether when you know what you need to or want to do. Attempting to use pure willpower or other means to force through such thoughts and distractions is tiring and for most people doesn't work long term, if at all.
Void and trance help one achieve awareness of the self to allow one to recognize which feelings and thoughts are unnecessary distractions and which are legitimate concerns, as they silence the thinking mind and allow one to connect closer to the seat of subconscious, which is where true pristine self awareness lies.
Thus when you find yourself running in circles and not getting anything done, remember those words, "Don't think, Act". Silence the thoughts distracting you and get back to what you know you need to be doing. This applies not only to spiritual advancement, but anything in life, from day to day chores, to career or school related work, though I write this mostly from a spiritual perspective. When done successfully, tasks which would normally feel bothersome or tiring, are completed effortlessly with great efficiency.
In Spiritual Satanism it is very easy to convince yourself of delusions or practices harmful to your overall advancement, things that work against you. Many of these are self caused, however, behind all these things which often dwell only in the thinking mind, lies the subconscious you that knows what is true and false, and knows what is important and what is irrelevant.
Intuition is an ability of the subconscious that ties into this, it makes one aware of certain things and leads one to answers for their questions so one doesn't have to waste time uselessly thinking.
Often I see members pose questions here, and already answer their own questions in the topic they write. Sometimes they realize it, sometimes they don't. Usually this happens because one generally only asks a question where thinking has failed to answer you (Sometimes one asks out of laziness and not wanting to seek anything on your own, this is a separate case and unrelated to this), while one seeks the answer, you pose the question to another, but when one poses a question, you also pose it to yourself, and to the knowledge you have, which includes your subconscious.
When you pose a question, the mind instinctively silences your thoughts in order to listen to an answer, this is where the subconscious has a chance to shine through and can answer you on it's own. This is also how intuition manifests, you consciously or unconsciously invoke your subconscious to seek answers or knowledge already within, or to bring to you what you need/require by the power of your mind.
Sometimes the easiest way to find answers is to stop thinking, rather than to think more, try this and you may be surprised by how much you already knew, but were unaware of due to your thoughts distracting you from the truth you already have within.
Tuning into your subconscious and answering yourself is a form of Acting. Anything to do with the subconscious could be considered an Act of sort, because the subconscious always knows what it seeks or needs to do, thus there is no delay when it is invoked and no wasted energy, it simply get's straight to the point and does what is asked of it.
The key here to the principle of "Don't think, Act", is to be open to the subconscious mind and at the higher levels, to let the conscious be the subconscious and visa versa.
