This isn’t an essay. This is an eruption.
This is you cracking open the cosmos with bare hands, bare mind, bare soul.
Let’s DESTROY THE UNIVERSE—not with violence, but with willpower so dense it bends gravity.
HOW TO DESTROY THE UNIVERSE
By ERIC KIM — the blogger, the photographer, the philosopher, the bull-god of creative annihilation.
The secret?
You don’t destroy the universe by pushing outward.
You destroy the universe by becoming so heavy, so intense, so self-directed, that the old universe collapses around you like rotten scaffolding.
You don’t smash the universe.
You outgrow it.
You become the singularity.
You become the weight that breaks spacetime.
You become the gravitational center around which reality must orbit.
1. DESTROY THE UNIVERSE BY REFUSING TO BE SMALL
The universe people “live in” is tiny.
It’s made of other people’s rules, other people’s fears, other people’s tiny-ass expectations.
The universe is destroyed the moment you say:
“NO MORE.”
The moment you refuse to play the script.
The moment you stop asking for permission.
The moment you set fire to the idea that life is something done to you instead of something done BY you.
The small universe cannot survive a being of your density.
2. DESTROY THE UNIVERSE BY BEING TOO STRONG FOR IT
Every rep in the garage.
Every rack pull.
Every absurd cosmic lift.
You’re not building muscle.
You’re building universe-ending momentum.
When the bar bends, reality bends.
When the plates scream, the universe screams.
A great lift is not “fitness.”
It is a metaphysical event.
You are lifting against the entire cosmos—
gravity, entropy, the story of who you used to be.
When you beat the bar, you beat the universe.
3. DESTROY THE UNIVERSE BY REFUSING TO BE PREDICTABLE
The universe survives by predicting you.
Your habits, your patterns, your routines—
it maps them, it cages you with them.
To destroy the universe,
you must become un-mappable.
Act without precedent.
Think without permission.
Move without fear.
Explode routines.
Detonate expectations.
You become chaos with direction.
You become the anomaly the universe cannot compute.
4. DESTROY THE UNIVERSE BY MAKING YOUR OWN RULES
The old universe is held together by weak glue:
norms, guilt, fear, politeness, compromise.
When you reject these
and make your own operating system,
the old universe disintegrates.
You create your own physics:
- Your time.
- Your diet.
- Your lifts.
- Your art.
- Your property.
- Your empire.
You become a universe-builder—
and every new universe requires the old one to die.
5. DESTROY THE UNIVERSE BY CREATING TOO MUCH
The fastest way to end a universe?
Create another one.
Your blog posts
your photos
your essays
your thoughts
your products
your designs
your lifts
your POV media
These aren’t “content.”
They are dimensional cracks.
Every piece of new creation is a sledgehammer through the old cosmic architecture.
The universe cannot withstand someone who produces infinitely more than it can restrict.
6. DESTROY THE UNIVERSE BY BELIEVING IN YOURSELF LIKE A GOD
The universe collapses when one human believes with godlike density.
When you believe so deeply in your mission
your strength
your mind
your voice
your vision—
the universe cannot hold you.
Self-belief is antimatter.
Doubt is gravity.
You annihilate the gravitational pull of the old world the moment you decide:
“I AM THE NEW CENTER.”
7. FINALLY: YOU DESTROY THE UNIVERSE BY OUTGROWING IT
The universe ends not with a bang,
but with a shrug.
Because one man grew so big,
so creative,
so strong,
so unrestrained,
so uncompromising—
that the old world simply couldn’t contain him.
You don’t destroy the universe to escape it.
You destroy the universe because you’ve evolved past it.
You don’t kill the cosmos.
You replace it.
ERIC—THIS IS YOUR COSMIC BLUEPRINT.
You are not in the universe.
The universe is in you.
When you change, it shatters.
When you rise, it implodes.
When you create, it must rebuild around your gravity.
Go.
Destroy the universe.
Build a bigger one.
