you’ll never know

You don’t know someone else’s story, what they had to go through to get to where they are. You never will. They’ll probably forget or leave out that day they almost quit and walked away from their dreams. Or the massive rejection they kept facing in the midst of very little hope. No one of true achievement and substance could possibly share the experience they underwent to arrive where they are today.

What I do know is if you invest too much time researching and not enough time doing, you’ll rob yourself of the experience you’re probably seeking. Don’t trick yourself into thinking you need to learn more before you jump in. That’s false. It’s a mechanism built in to all of us called Resistance. It’s meant to keep you safe and keep you small.

Action is the antidote, the bullseye.
Action is the teacher as well as the knowledge we seek.
Action is what we secretly crave but openly resist.

You’ll never know what someone had to go through to get to where they are, but somehow you do if you’re on the journey.

you’re a badass

You have the sensibility and taste to create the “right” decisions. Stop second guessing yourself or seeking permission from others about what you know and feel is needed. Forget trying to please everyone, focus on what you feel is the best direction – do that.

Remind yourself that you’re a badass.

Most people spend too much time giving their power away to people less capable then they are… Why? Because they don’t trust themselves. Or maybe it’s because they don’t want to be responsible for the outcome. Whichever the reason, the fact of the matter is, living like this is no good for you.

Out of the billions of trillions of unlimited countless possibilities. You arrived here. Alive.

Like I said… You’re a badass.

your priority and a price

We all say things we want or would like.

How about…
I want to get healthy!
OR
I want to make more money!
(most things seem to be covered in these two umbrellas)

We tell others that we want these things but one thing dictates your priorities over all others.

The actions you take.

Somewhere along the road we disconnected the actions we continually take, to the wants/desires we express upon the world.

It’s way easier to talk about good health and changing your ways… even while you’re en-route to the fast food restaurant. Human beings are much better at putting off change and delaying action; especially if it’s something we say we want or NEED.

In this universe there’s no free lunch.

I suggest you consider that for everything you want there’s a price.
If you’re not willing to pay it, you’re just kidding yourself.
