Introduction
You will be a very strange person if you have never been interested in why strictly certain events happen to us and why they happen at a very specific time, or why, for example, everything in life always changes. The fact is that the constant improvement of the world dictates certain conditions to us, which need to be understood very clearly, with which we will try to figure it out today. Go.
So, what is the starting information: we are all united here, we are part of one big machine called "Peace", which works harmoniously for the common good - this is a global state of affairs, which we have already discussed in the article on the law of equilibrium of the Universe.
However, over time, a fundamental question arises about how to generally maintain this machine in working order, and how it has worked in working order for more than one thousand years. This is an important question, because, having understood it, one can enter a new level of harmony with society and, in general, with everything that is here.
The two extreme states of everything on earth
After observing this world and thinking a little, you will notice that nothing ever stands still. Each detail has two extreme states here: a state of development and a state of non-being. This is the continuous improvement of the world.
This mechanism is very easy to see in the example of nature. Take a look at a tree, it grows and develops until it dies. You can look at the nest and see how the entire colony will develop as long as it exists. It does not happen that for the first two months the colony builds an anthill and multiplies its ranks, and then the ants there simply have fun all the time allotted to them (by the way, such behavior among all nature is characteristic only of humans).

What is the meaning of improving the world
The desire to develop is inspired in absolutely every millimeter of our world. It is necessary to develop, because this is the only way to survive, to keep our unified system in working order and to flourish. If you do not develop, then you are dead. Severe, but natural. The universe needed to come up with an algorithm that would allow it to flourish, and the idea of perfecting the world one hundred percent copes with this task.
While you are developing, you bring something new and useful into the world, your potential grows, you have more opportunities to positively influence the global state of affairs. Well, if you do not develop, then the question arises accordingly: “Why are you needed here at all ?!”, and there is no positive answer to it. Here is such a cunning self-support system of the Universe.
By the way, the principle of development considered here underlies the answer to the question: "What is the meaning of human life?"
The real state of affairs
Now most people do not develop as nature intended, but because of this, no one dies at the snap of the universal fingers. The point is that "death" is a figurative expression here.
Such people, of course, continue to exist, they get up in the morning, do a standard set of their actions, then a new day begins, but nothing changes. There is no improvement, and therefore there will be no satisfaction in life, just as there will be no that innermost happiness. In this case, it really is death, because you cannot be satisfied, you cannot be happy, you cannot fully rejoice simply because you oppose the almighty principle of improving the world and prefer not to change anything, not to develop in any way - there is little in common with life.
Why we are not developing
We are always afraid to change anything, the unknown scares us. “It seems like it’s not bad here, but what’s around the corner, I’m not interested at all” - this is the strategy that is killing us ahead of schedule. For example, an ant is not afraid to crawl into some wild jungle in this gigantic macrocosm in order to get food for the colony.
The only constancy of this world is expressed in its stable change, because if something is improved, then it changes. Everything is always changing, by the way, this is the easiest way to understand that you are alive.
This mechanism lends itself well to the idea of a comfort zone to be careful with, but we are overusing it now. After all, who wants to develop when the house has a comfortable chair in which you can just sit without making any efforts. And although the chair is comfortable, this lifestyle never benefits either a person or the world as a whole.
The cons of consistency
Any constancy is a very bad sign. It's not cool if our salary doesn't change over the years, it's bad if our work doesn't change in any way over the years. No one forbids doing the same thing, but every day it is necessary to do more and better than it was yesterday.
If we do not develop our brain, then the neural networks in it become stronger and it ceases to be flexible, and this deprives us of a very cool ability to think broadly, globally, outside the box (this is described in detail, for example, in the book "To My Own Placebo").
If we do not develop our body, then it becomes decrepit and we begin to feel bad. Such examples can be selected endlessly, because there is nothing that does not obey this principle.
Monotony destroys a person morally. It is impossible to feel good if everything is the same around every day. We need dynamics, we need to notice changes, otherwise life loses interest in our eyes.
How the world is improving
Despite the desire of a person to be in the comfort zone, nature always remains on the side of preserving a single universal system, and she knows very well what is required to turn the course of affairs in the right direction. Here we suddenly return to the question of why very specific events happen to us at a specific time.
Since the Universe wants us to help preserve it, it continually throws up circumstances for us that are aimed at mobilizing us. The person calls these circumstances problems.
Problems are unlikely to be associated with something positive. A person considers problems to be destructive, in his understanding they destroy, not improve life. “Problems make us upset, hurt, take energy and interfere with life” - this is how we think about them.
Somewhere in this paragraph, the world of an ordinary mortal turns upside down, because now he receives the knowledge that problems are always constructive. Everything is very simple: to solve problems, you need to get up from a comfortable chair and start doing something, and this process actually organizes our development and movement towards the improvement of the world.
Scrambling out of difficulties and solving problems, we simultaneously improve this world and our life. Problems are the only way of development, maybe not the most pleasant and understandable, but nothing moves a person forward like the need to get out of difficult situations. It is better to read about what action is and how it allows you to be in harmony with nature in a separate article, and we move on.
The example of human survival
In ancient times, a person lived according to the principle of the jungle, where kill or eat you yourself. It was necessary to hunt a lot and constantly survive. The person was often hungry and cold. He lived where there were no beds and no shower. Life in those days was unrealistically cruel. But it had to be so.
In harsh conditions, people constantly tried to adapt and, as a result, developed. If the mammoth himself climbed into the cave and roasted over the fire, there would be no need to invent tools and sophisticated hunting methods, there would be no need to develop the economy and cultivate plants.
If the world around him was not dangerous for a person, he would not need to huddle in herds and build shelters in order to survive. If it was not necessary to survive, then the person would not survive. Unfavorable conditions have brought us to where we are now. Since the time of the cavemen, we have evolved seriously, but there would be no need for evolution if people were always wonderful.
It would seem that in comparison with a caveman, a modern brother should not have any problems. Look at our world, there are so many opportunities to make money, get a good education. There are housing and people who take care of us, you can find everything you need in the shops. The caveman would be ecstatically shocked by all these possibilities, but now we still have problems, even though our living conditions are on a completely different level.
It is important to understand that if the problems did not appear on their own, then a person will create them with his own hand in order to get the opportunity to improve along with this world.
Perfect events at the perfect time
The Universe always knows exactly in what conditions a person needs to be put in order to maximize his development. From this we draw a simple conclusion that any circumstance, event or situation is ideal in itself and happens at the ideal time. This means that any other event at a given moment in time would not be as beneficial to you and to the world as the one that happened at that moment in time.
So, only ideal events happen and they happen at the most suitable time for this. And now you should look at your life and remember the moments when you managed to feel this ideality of the Universe. Rather, most of us came to the exact opposite conclusion that everything always happens somehow completely wrong and at the most inopportune time. Of course, this conclusion is much easier to draw when you strive to sit in a comfortable chair and early death in it, and not to move in the direction of improving the world.
Why, then, do ideal events not work so perfectly? And the fact is that we always have a choice: to react or not to react. Many people choose not to react to events. This movement means: not to extract the required experience from situations, to avoid solving problems, and so on. Until you respond, you deprive yourself of the chance to experience the full power and mystery of the possibilities that lie behind the problems.
Summary
We hope the idea of this reading material was as clear as possible to everyone, but just a few conclusions on this topic.
It should be understood that any day on which you have not learned anything, have not learned any experience, or have not surpassed yourself in anything is not your best day. This world pushes us to development, the desire to develop is inherent in every person, there is simply no need to resist him, in any case, the results of any resistance will not take long: apathy, a feeling of uselessness, constant irritability and much more awaits those who decide to stop their development - is this really what you are striving for?
No need to grow into a chair, no matter how comfortable it may be, before fear of the unknown. It is much more interesting and more fun to develop, this makes it possible to improve in step with the world and receive bonuses in the form of moments of real childhood happiness.
It is also necessary to remember that all problems are not problems at all, but opportunities that create conditions for us to help our world and find our own success. Therefore, it is even good if something goes wrong in life or there are some global difficulties, as this allows you to create.
Sometimes it seems that everything on the planet is against you, but in fact, any events that take place always play on us. The Universe understands that losing any of the details of the mechanism would be a completely unreasonable decision, it is better to teach this detail to work as it should. For this, we are constantly faced with difficulties, the only question is how we react to them, how we understand the meaning of the appearance of such events in our life and what experience we derive from them.
This is all about improving the world, now we are heading together in search of the unknown in order to become stronger, better and support nature in its unbridled desire to survive. Good luck!
