Time for some gratitude, sprinkled in with some motivation.
I’ve come to realize that we can be whoever we want to be. Whatever we want to be. We can do whatever we want to do. Anyone from any walk of life can learn the skills of someone succeeding in the chosen field.
The only thing stopping us is our own emotional world. We have traumas, negative thought patterns, limiting beliefs, all which are forged through personal experiences and the people / influences around us. All that can be changed with dedicated, disciplined effort. Do more repetitions of whatever it is you want out of life and eventually you will get it right. You can lower the learning curve with mentors in the field but 99% of the results will come from taking the right actions daily.
I feel like a completely different person from last year. I’m focused, stronger, always trying to improve my surroundings, always giving value no matter the cost, positive, kind, caring, but also ruthless. I can be cruel to myself but I know the suffering has an end. I can do the things others are unwilling to do because they have to surpass their own limiting beliefs and emotions towards working hard.
I am grateful for these products. I am grateful for executing on my mission, goals, and friend circles. I am grateful for seeing others executing, and bettering their lives. What a world we live in. I could have been some lowly peasant farmer in the 1700s with no upward social mobility opportunities. But no. I live in a time ripe with opportunities. I get life lessons daily. The sun is always shining no matter how bad the day is. I am still smiling under duress. I can change my circumstances, whether it is dating, intimacy, friends, finances, living conditions, health, sleep. Everything rests on me taking the right actions at the right time with some room for spontaneity.
I’ve done 1000+ actions, different actions from last year, from the last 10 years. My thinking patterns have changes for the better. Instead of “why am I tired all the time?” I now ask “why do I have some much energy all the time?”
All I have is this life. My estimated lifespan is a statistic, but the actions I take within that lifespan is not statistically accurate. Most people will accept their reality by their 30s and their 40s. Gone are the fires of hardship to forge better personalities. Gone are the trials and tribulations. Replaced with a cushy job and cushy daily routines.
I’m gonna make it because I am capable of handling higher and higher levels of adversity. Any negative experience is always a positive. It adds drops to the bucket of success. I finally feel unshackled. Each experience I have now are just bricks to a powerful foundation. The cement is my ability to harness the energy of each experience.
I know I am going to succeed. So will you. Keep hammering away.
