Overall there are quite a few people who have ambitions that might have to do with becoming this "1%" in life. When people join Zevism they get very powerful tools to achieve this or other purposes. These tools however do not replace "life itself", which is what the topic of this post will explain.
As a Zevist you have a huge and powerful advantage of spiritual knowledge, the ability to grow spiritually and the ability to usher an extra power that other people do not have as 99.9% of the population. That is the power of the soul and the Gods.
Now, the situation is that the above gives you a giant advantage, but unless it's put inside the proper running of your own context of life, it can still help you tremendously but that's still not enough "on it's own" to reach the 1% in life or do legendary things or things like that. Amazing things all fall under the 1% category.
Depending on what one considers this a valid 1% of their life, they might have a different opinion, views or choices about "what" this is. Certain things in this are external and decided by life, but one makes their own goals in this. The world must not always "decide" for you. Now let's move on to how magick can assist you to these and what you have that others do not.
An example that is very direct here is one I almost always use; unless you train in the gym, you won't grow muscle. You can pray for muscle and do as much meditation as you want, but you still have to do the lifting. Magick can help you stay at the gym, get better results, find better supplements, find creative ways to work out, give you endurance to reach your final goal, or get you some gym buddies. But it will not do the lifting for you. The hands must do that.
The power of magick can help in the following ways, provided you are powerful enough of a magician [meditation makes you that] and you apply the rules of ACTING and DOING in life.
1. Give you ideas
2. Help you solve problems
3. Give you emotional power and determination to succeed [replenish you].
4. You get external help for when things can turn difficult or would make other normal people just fail.
5. Magick can accelerate the progress, but it cannot diminish the fact you need to make progress.
6. Can create "borderline miraculous" situations so you go from point B to point C - but point A always remains that you have to do what it "takes" to reach a goal for the given moment.
7. Intuition = Life Saver
8. Magick aimed at something = Major help in this area of something you want to do.
Now, meditation and magick, can help you further understand the laws of the Cosmos and Life. This is quintessential when it comes to knowing things in general. The more you understand life, the better you will navigate the rules. The rules of life itself do not change, but magick can help you move faster, get better opportunities, and essentially sustain you and protect you along the way of your journey. The journey is what you walk with your legs, and build with your hands and your abilities.
God Rituals and everything else [more incoming] are Divine Tools. Tools require a user. A user needs a plan [the Gods can help you with this plan]. But as with all things, tools and powers, must be used by an individual: That individual is You. This You has to move and do the things it takes to achieve a goal. Tools such as spiritual or other means, are means with which you can shape your future and life better, but like using a chisel, the hands that use it are your hands. You will be the sculptor of your life and future no matter what.
