Why You Have to be ‘EVIL’ to Manifest

Conformity is the enemy of evolution.

From an early age, you were conditioned to follow society’s narrow ideas of what is “good” and “moral.”

But the truth is, those very ideas are what keeps you stuck.

As long as you try to be “good” and please everyone around you, you’ll remain trapped in the life others expect of you — not the one you truly desire.

Throughout history, many great individuals were labeled as “evil” by their environment.

Why?

Because they dared to see the world through their own eyes and refused to conform to society’s expectations.

Mozart’s “Evil” Rebellion

A good example is the life of one of the greatest composers in history.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart began taking piano lessons at the age of four under his father, Leopold.

From the very beginning, it was clear that he was not an ordinary child — his talent was absolutely exceptional and his father, recognizing this, quickly began showcasing Mozart’s abilities in courts, earning a solid income from his son’s performances.

However, while it was clear to Mozart that he was destined to create his own music and write history as a great composer, his father had a very different vision.

Leopold was expecting his son to focus on making money which was coming from playing already composed conventional court music that fit the expectations of the aristocracy.

In his mind, it was something his son owed him, a kind of repayment for all the effort he had invested in training and managing his career.

But the truth is, Mozart was not meant to conform and be a simple rich people pleaser.

At the age of 25, he made a decision that, to his father, was extremely selfish and evil — he left Salzburg and moved to Vienna, to live and compose on his own.

As soon as he broke free from his father’s control, he began composing at an extraordinary pace, creating masterpieces that quickly solidified his place as one of the greatest composers of all time.

Despite his success, his father could never forgive him. Leopold saw it as a betrayal of the family and the sacrifices he had made for him.

Mozart had two choices: stay in Salzburg, be a conventional court musician with no purpose in life, but keep the “love” of his father, or go after his dreams but become “evil” in his eyes.

The Trap of “Goodness”

The societal definition of “goodness” has nothing to do with being a genuinely good person (helpful, honest, and “moral” in general understanding).

Being “good” in the eyes of others means not being better than them, staying in line, and not jumping above the limitations that have been placed upon you.

The raw truth is, that most people can’t bear the idea that someone might be better than them. It’s a part of human nature, that we feel comfortable only in the presence of those who are doing equally or worse than us in life because it gives us a sense of relatability and reassurance that we are not alone in all of this.

Sometimes though, you need to ask yourself if you really want to accompany people at the bottom and be a part of their misery.

The moment we rise above someone’s limitations, they will no longer be comfortable around us and the reasons might be different. Sometimes it would be a simple lack of understanding of ambitious ideas, but sometimes it might be pure envy of achieving something they couldn’t.

There might be a case that the expectations or limitations others place on you aren’t even intentional.

They might be simply a reflection of their own internal limitations.

Subconsciously, they project their fears and insecurities onto you and create certain rules about what you can and cannot do without realizing that they are not really helping but killing your potential.

In both cases, the result is the same. To be viewed as “good” in the eyes of others, you have to fit into their world — a world that is in most cases filled with mediocrity, self-doubt, and misery.

The question is, do you want to be “good” in this sense?

Because staying trapped in this way of thinking will never allow you to live the life you truly want.

The “Evil” Mindset

At some point, you have to make a choice: either you are going to spend your life trying to please others, or you are going to break free from that and live for yourself.

When you stop adjusting your life for others’ comfort and start prioritizing your own business, they’ll probably think of you as “selfish” or even completely “evil.” That’s just something you need to accept if you ever want to achieve anything meaningful.

Greatness in any field doesn’t come from making others feel comfortable.

It doesn’t come from playing by their rules and ensuring they aren’t challenged by your ambition in any way. To achieve what others haven’t, you need to act in ways they won’t — and that also means stepping away from the need to please.

This might sound selfish, but the question is, who is more selfish? The people trying to force others into their limited way of thinking to feel better, or the ones who reject that and want to live on their own?

Success in this world requires prioritizing yourself and your feelings. It has nothing to do with being cruel or malicious.

Realize, you aren’t here to please everyone. You’re here to create the life you want, even if that means being “evil” in their eyes.

Create Your Own Path

The only way to achieve the life you truly desire is to be unapologetically true to your own truth and desired reality.

Do what feels right to you, not what others expect.

If you conform to the “good” and safe path that others have already created, you’ll inevitably end up with the same results they have.

It’s a paradox — how can you even expect something extraordinary if you do exactly what everyone else is doing?

The key is simple: if you want something different, you have to be different.

If you feel a strong pull toward something, a deep sense from within, even if everyone around you calls it delusional — trust yourself.

Your intuition is one of the most powerful tools you have, and ignoring it is the fastest way to regret.

Some of the greatest achievements were born from people trusting their gut when logic and others told them not to.

Elon Musk was viewed as a complete idiot while launching SpaceX.

J. K. Rowling was rejected by 12 publishers before someone took a chance on her Harry Potter manuscript.

Your vision doesn’t have to make sense to anyone else as long as it makes sense to you.

When you trust your instincts and reject the ideas that led all those advisors to the life you don’t want to live, you give yourself a chance to achieve results no one else thought were possible.

Don’t conform — create. That’s how you make your mark.

Practical Application

This might be rough, but in some cases, the only way to truly escape the constraints that others place on you is to entirely cut those people off.

You can either let them keep slowly poisoning you until you’ve completely lost the willingness to create the reality you desire, or you can break free and go after it.

When you eliminate these distractions, you can become unapologetically true to your own vision.

With no external factors clouding your mind, and a clear direction of where you’re going, you can become laser-focused and keep your energy locked onto what truly matters to you.

Once you’re able to do this, the real magic happens.

When the only thing that exists in your mind is a clear picture of what you want, the universe has nothing else to give you.

Redesign your mind and emotions, from the old to the new, to match your desired reality… and sooner or later, it will come to you.

Apparently, if you want to live the life you truly want, you have to embrace your "inner villain.”

And this obviously doesn’t mean kicking puppies or stealing candies from kids.

It means stopping the need to be relatable to everyone around you and becoming “selfish” in the sense that you prioritize your goals above the need to please others or fit into their expectations.
