These Muhammad Ali Quotes Are Life Changing

“A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life.” – Muhammad Ali. 

A life fully lived, is a life that has learned lessons from the past, and used them to create a more magical present and a better future.

If you’re still complaining about the same things you were 30,20,10 or even one year ago… it’s time to change something…. And that something is YOU.

You should be constantly evolving and growing WHO YOU ARE from life experience and from the work you do on YOU. 

Are you better than you were 10 years ago?

Have you grown?

What areas can you improve?

“He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.” – Muhammad Ali. 

Everything worthwhile in life will require an element of risk.  Everything in life that has the possibility of a GREAT REWARD… carries with it an element of risk.

The reward is not guaranteed… failure is a possibility… and so there is RISK.

The real question is this… is the REWARD worth the RISK?    Whatever you REALLY WANT in life… IS WORTH THE RISK.

Starting that business… is a risk… but will the REWARD of success be worth the risk?  If the answer is YES, you must go for it.

Asking that person out is a risk… they might say NO… but the life together on the other side might be worth taking that risk.  And so the point is… for the things that REALLY MATTER… you must take the risk.

Do not live in regret, for fear of failure, because the only real failure is not attempting to live the life you want to live.

“Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.” – Muhammad Ali. 

Giving is it’s own reward. It doesn’t cost anything, it’s not expected, but it sure makes your life a whole lot more fulfilling.

Giving to others doesn’t have to be financial or material… it could mean giving of your time, giving your experience… giving your presence… understanding… love.

How can YOU make this world a better place today?   How can YOU make someone else’s day BETTER, TODAY? 

Look for opportunities to serve, anyone and everyone you come into contact with.

“It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to BELIEF. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.” – Muhammad Ali. 

Step one: AFFIRM with REPETITION until you BELIEVE.
Step two: REPEAT step one until it is ingrained into your very being.

You have to speak and FEEL what you want.    You have to AFFIRM and FEEL who you want to be… before you are that person…

You must believe you deserve it, work toward it until you see it, and affirm it until you BECOME IT. 

The greatest gift you can give yourself is SELF-BELIEF. Develop that belief in yourself through repetition. Repetition of affirmation and repetition of action.

Constantly trying, getting up after failing… continuing to beat the drum until you find the winning beat.

“I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.”- Muhammad Ali. 

Champions, like Ali, are willing to suffer now, to live the rest of their life as a champion… and in the same way, those who succeed, in ANY area of life are willing to delay gratification. They are prepared to SUFFER for a period, knowing the REWARD coming in the future.

Most people seek comfort in the moment, even if it leads to pain later…. Very few people are willing to go through PAIN in the moment for the possibility of a brighter future. 

One person might take the first crappy job that comes in order to pay the bills tomorrow… knowing full well they will be stuck there, miserable for years to come.

Another person might suffer through financially, while they work on developing their skills, and getting a better job, or starting their own business that will lead to less pain in the FUTURE.

It’s a choice. It’s a mindset. Your best life will never be gained by choosing the easy option.

Transcript – The Best You That Ever Existed (2021 Motivational Speech) – Fearless Motivation

What if I told you that YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE THE BEST YOU THAT HAS EVER EXISTED…?

THE BEST YOU… THAT HAS EVER… EXISTED!

Doesn’t that excite you? The possibility of creating your best self?   Your best physical body.  Your best financial situation. The best you have ever felt about your life.  The most joy you have ever experienced.

Of course, this is not a pie in the sky idea… all of us, including YOU have that opportunity.   YOU CAN create the best you… IN ANY AND EVERY AREA. Surely… that excites you?

If that doesn’t excite you… the idea of CREATING YOUR BEST SELF… through your OWN work…. If that doesn’t excite you, NOTHING WILL!

THE PRIDE that will come from creating the BEST YOU… can never come through handouts… YOU MUST EARN IT. AND YOU CAN DO IT!

YOU MUST DECIDE IT IS TIME!  IT HAS TO BE IMPORTANT TO YOU!

What area or areas do you experience pain?
What area of your life is NOT a reflection of the standards you live by?
What area makes you disappointed or ashamed?

Think about the BEST YOU HAVE EVER BEEN in that area… NOW THINK ABOUT REACHING A HIGHER LEVEL.

THAT IS A DECISION.  IT WILL REQUIRE WORK! BUT YOU CAN DO IT!  IT WILL BE WORTH IT!

GET EXCITED ABOUT YOUR LIFE! GET EXCITED ABOUT WHO YOU COULD BECOME!

 DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO ACHIEVE IT… EARN IT!  And then… ENJOY THE PRIDE THAT COMES WITH IT!

What if I told you every challenge you’ve ever faced was just an obstacle sent for you to develop character… and that character, if developed… will lead you to your best life?

What if I told you that those challenges were sent for you to become stronger?

  What if you KNEW those challenges… the hardest times in your life… were sent for you to discover WHO YOU REALLY ARE?

Would you face those challenges differently?… Knowing that they will make you stronger?

Would you face those challenges differently, if you knew they were all PART OF THE PLAN?   The reality is, they ARE part of the plan… if you CHOOSE to see it that way.

They could also be a burden, a curse, life’s way of destroying you… unfair and unjust… if YOU CHOOSE to see it that way.

One perspective leads to a miserable life and one leads to a life that can handle just about anything.  

One perspective is fighting against LIFE… also known as fighting against WHAT IS… which is insanity.

You can’t change what happens… and you can’t control the universe… but you CAN shift your perspective.  

Think back to every challenge you’ve ever faced… think about the hardest challenges… the ones that really hurt… did ANY of them… ANY of them lead you to something better?

Maybe a nasty break up, that was so hard to go through… but lead you to a better partner… maybe if that didn’t happen you would not have the children you have today?

Maybe you were fired or didn’t get that job… but it lead to a better one… or an idea that started your business?

Maybe you were under immense financial pressure so you had to FIND A WAY to make something happen… and you did! That builds character.

Maybe you reached your limit physically and you were sick and tired of being sick and tired… so you changed everything, and got in the best shape of your life. The pain of the mirror forced you to be better.

We can ALL point to a challenging moment in our life that made us better.  Don’t fight against the challenges… RISE UP to them… they will make you stronger… they will make you BETTER!

These 6 Epictetus Quotes Will Change How You View Life

These 6 Epictetus Quotes Will Change How You View Life

“It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” – Epictetus

In creating your best life, it would never be wise to expect for the circumstances of your life to be perfect, rather to develop the character required to overcome and thrive through all challenges.   Life happens. Challenges welcome all of us, and so, the difference in the quality of life we lead, is in our response.

However you respond to the challenges of life, determines the quality of your life.   However you choose to view the world around you, is what will be reflected back to you.

Do you view life through an optimistic lens, or a pessimistic one?

When life gets tough… when challenges arrive… do you RISE to the challenge, or complain, curse and quit?

The character and strength developed through refusing to quit when things get hard is priceless.   Remember, it does not matter what happens, it only matters how you REACT TO WHAT HAPPENS.

 “We have two ears and one mouth… so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” – Epictetus

Most of us live this way. We talk too much and listen too little.   We want to be seen all knowing, so we voice our opinion when we don’t know… and don’t know because we fail to listen.

We all want to be heard, but very few of us hear the other.

Next time you are in a conversation with someone, especially those you care about, practice intentional listening. Do not wait for your turn to speak, just listen, with the intention to understand.   Be present. Listen more.

  “There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.” – Epictetus  

Trying to change things out of our control is often referred to as insanity, most likely because it is.

Accept all things you can not change and work to change all things you can.   Release resistance and all stress for all things outside of your control. That energy used in fighting against what-is… should be used for something more positive… like improving other areas of your life you do have control over.

Happiness simply can not come to those who are fighting against life.

  “Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.”  

“He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.” – Epictetus

Gratitude. The greatest power on earth. When you LIVE in it, you are complete. When you live without it, no matter how much you have, you’ll never have enough.   Rich are those who are happy with ALL they have, no matter how much they have… and usually those are the ones who attract more to be grateful for.

If you don’t already, make gratitude a daily practice. Spend a few moments every day thinking about everything that IS GREAT in your life… everything that makes you truly rich… all the things money can’t buy.

“No man is free who is not master of himself.” – Epictetus

No matter how much wealth you have accumulated or how much you own, if you aren’t the master of your mind, you can not be free.

Nothing can be more important than mastering your mind, mastering your emotions.   Throughout the years there have been countless stories of millionaires, billionaires and those who seemingly had it all… ending their own life… Although they had accumulated a lot of material wealth, they did not feel rich on the inside… and that’s just it, riches should always begin on the inside.

Society has it backwards… putting material success and winning on a pedestal when there live so many “winners” who are emotionally void.  Focus first on your mental, and physical health and everything else will fall into place.

 “First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.” – Epictetus

Have that conversation with yourself. First ask exactly what you want to experience in your life. Everything you must have.   Then, be prepared to work for, sacrifice for, and EARN what you must have.

If you really want it, it won’t feel like work, you will do the work, you will put in the hours, you will make the sacrifices, but you will do it willingly, with no resistance – because the OUTCOME will be more important than the time it takes to get there, or whatever you have to give up to get there.  Go on that journey. Find what you really want… and go get it.

Transcript – What are you fighting for? – Fearless Motivation

Don’t tell me you have nothing to fight for!… If you can breathe… you have something to fight for.

 If you’ve ever had ANYONE on this earth care for you… you have something to fight for. If you care about ANYONE else on this earth but yourself… you have someone to fight for!

If you have self-pride you have something to fight for!  If you’ve got someone who looks up to you… then you have got someone to fight for!

If you have not yet realized your true potential… YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO FIGHT FOR!

If you have not reached your dream… if you have not yet reached your goal… YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO FIGHT FOR.

You have to quit looking at what you DON’T HAVE and REMEMBER WHAT YOU’RE FIGHTING FOR!

REMEMBER WHY YOU STARTED. REMEMBER WHAT YOU’RE DOING IT ALL FOR! Remember what matters!

Don’t give up!

The people who care about you don’t care about your SUCCESS! They care about your HAPPY-NESS! So remember what makes you happy and chuck out the rest!

REMEMBER WHAT… AND WHO REALLY MATTERS… and build your life around those things.

LET GO of those outside voices that make you feel like you should be somewhere else… anywhere else in your life… You’re not meant to be anywhere other than where YOU WANT TO BE… and wherever you REALLY WANT TO BE… that is worth fighting for.

LISTEN! I didn’t say where your EGO wants to be. I did not say where you think the world wants you to be!  Where do you want to be?  And more importantly…  WHO DO YOU WANT TO BE?

The YOU that is worth fighting for… FEEL IT. PICTURE IT.

Who are you GOING TO BE FROM THIS MOMENT FORWARD? THAT IS WORTH FIGHTING FOR.  

REMEMBER WHY YOU STARTED. REMEMBER WHAT YOU’RE DOING IT ALL FOR! Remember what matters!

LYRICS: WATCH ME BLEED (Official M usic Video) Fearless Motivation

I can hear destiny calling, calling out my name.

 Failure and dreams both offering,
but both offering change
Surrender offers rest,
but I’d die for peace
Don’t need your protection,
don’t need no shield

Now watch me bleed!
Now watch me bleed!
Now watch me bleed!

The winds of life are blowing
It brings doubt like rain
but I would roar like thunder
and I will storm like hail

Rise and fall both beckoning
both offer chains
but I’d eat a bowl of lightning
and embrace the pain

Embrace the pain!
Embrace the pain!
Now watch me Feed!
Now watch me Feed!
Now watch me Feed!
Now watch me Feed!

Failure is not an option. I will not just survive.
Freedom is near. I choose to THRIVE.
I will live full force, never on my knees.
I will smash the door, if I can’t find the keys.
I will not back down. I will not yield.
Just like William Wallace, I need no shield

I am different. I’m not the same…
I AM NOT THE SAME!
I AM NOT THE SAME!!!
I AM NOT THE SAME!!!

I am different.
I AM NOT THE SAME!!!
I AM NOT THE SAME!!!
I AM NOT THE SAME!!!

Transcript – There Is No Worse Feeling Than Letting Yourself Down (Motivational Video) – Fearless Motivation

Have you ever had a moment in your life where you were just ASHAMED at a certain area in your life? An area that just wasn’t good enough… Maybe your health, your body, your job, your attitude… whatever it was… ONE AREA where you were disappointed because that area of your life was NOT acceptable to you… ONE AREA that was well below your standards… you might have been disgusted in that area of your life… and KNEW you had to change… but continuously let yourself down?

The hole got bigger. The problem became larger. The shame grew…. The disappointment grew. You wanted to change. Maybe you tried to change… but NOTHING CHANGED… I’ve been there.

There is no worse feeling than that of letting yourself down…

There is no worse feeling than living a life BELOW YOUR OWN STANDARDS. Losing respect WITHIN YOURSELF is tough… but it CAN BE the most powerful force for change.

That moment… when you are so disgusted in yourself that you HAVE TO CHANGE. You’ve crossed the line of inner integrity and ENOUGH IS ENOUGH… But you can only get to that point if you first take full responsibility for WHERE YOU ARE. In every area.

There might be some great excuses, they might be VALID EXCUSES… but your boss, the government, your partner… or any other problem you have is NOT going to pick you up and deliver you to FREEDOM.
You have to DROP THE EXCUSES and ask yourself:
WHAT CAN I DO?…

REGARDLESS OF THESE PROBLEMS… WHAT CAN I DO… TO GET MY LIFE EXACTLY WHERE I WANT IT?

It starts in the mind. One thing NO ONE can take from you is the FREEDOM of your mind.

Strengthen your mind, strengthen your mentality FIRST… and then ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

It starts in the mind. One thing NO ONE can take from you is the FREEDOM of your mind. Strengthen your mind, strengthen your mentality FIRST… and then ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

You can create ANY RESULT when you have a strong mind. Obstacles and challenges will still come… but they will disappear when faced with a strong mentality.

WORK ON YOUR MENTAL GAME FIRST. Become unbreakable inside your own mind, inside your heart… Do the work on you so that no circumstance can break your spirit.

Then ask yourself: WHAT RESULT MUST I HAVE… what is the EXACT result I must have… and WHY? The specifics of the result is important – SO WRITE IT DOWN…

Even more important is that you understand WHY YOU MUST HAVE IT. Get quiet, think about it, understand it, write it down.

Now you have something that should drive you forward. Give it a deadline and make a COMMITMENT TO YOURSELF that you will make this happen. NO MATTER WHAT. NO MATTER WHAT.

Whatever or whoever gets in your way, this NEW LIFE is yours. It’s for you and it’s for so much more than you. It’s YOUR new standard that will make a difference for so many more than just you.

It’s WHO YOU MUST BECOME. There’s nothing more important than you achieve this… FOR YOU.

So make that commitment. TODAY. NOW. Whatever area in your life that you’ve had ENOUGH OF being below your standards… NOW… RIGHT NOW is the time…

MAKE THAT COMMITMENT to yourself and this time FOLLOW THROUGH…
FOR YOU!

Transcript – It Does Not Matter What Happens TO YOU – Motivational Video – Fearless Motivation

“It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” Epictetus spoke these words thousands of years ago… they are more important TODAY than ever before.

It does NOT matter what happens to you but how YOU REACT to what happens… That is what will determine your destiny.

It does NOT matter what happens to you but how you PROCESS what happens… your thoughts about what happens… how you CHOOSE TO FEEL ABOUT what happens… your REACTION to what happens… and the PLAN OF ACTION you make to respond to what happens.

Your boss or crappy job… or failing business… or poor grades… can NOT be a problem if you know inside your self… that this is NOT FORVER… if you know that you will amount to more than this brief moment in time… if you are committed to do the work required to be better and BECOME MORE than you are now.

The heartbreak you are experiencing might be tough now… but it will NOT define your life… unless you allow it to do so.

However you see and respond to ANY… and EVERY EVENT in your life determines YOUR DESTINY.

You have to constantly ask yourself:
HOW CAN I MOVE FORWARD?…
How can I move past this?
How can I be better?
What can I learn from this?

Failure hits us all. Heartache hits us all. Problems… people we don’t want in our life, illness, disappointment … this is all a normal part of being human… what is NOT normal is taking in all of that AND MOVING FORWARD ANYWAY.

What is not normal is being beaten down by life, time after time… and TIME AFTER TIME RISING UP and saying IS THAT ALL YOU GOT!

What is not normal is seeing the PROBLEM in your way as a CHALLENGE… as an opportunity to show WHO YOU ARE. WHO ARE YOU?

WHO ARE YOU?

If you’re like most people… who you have been is a mere shadow of who you SHOULD BE and WHO YOU COULD BECOME…

What has happened in the past…. It really doesn’t matter though… what matters is WHO YOU DECIDE TO BE NOW.

Who are you going to be from this moment forward?

Whatever happens, never EVER FORGET THESE WORDS:

It does NOT matter what happens to you but how YOU REACT to what happens… That is what will determine your destiny.

Whatever happens YOU CAN RISE ABOVE IT. You can DEFEAT IT… you can be better for having experienced it.

You choose. Choose wisely.

These Albert Einstein Quotes Are Life Changing! (Motivational Video)

Thu, 10 Dec 2020 02:14:22 GMT

These Albert Einstein Quotes Are Life Changing! (Must watch motivational video)

The wisdom of Albert Einstein is well documented, but what is the meaning behind his quotes? Here’s our take:

“Imagination is more important than knowledge.” – Albert Einstein

“The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.” – Albert Einstein

“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.” – Albert Einstein

There is perhaps no stronger trait one could have, than that of a strong imagination.

Imagination is EVERYTHING… because without it we can not create ANY-THING NEW.

Imagination is the preview of life’s coming attractions, because without it we are guaranteed to repeat the same patterns, make the same mistakes and live the same life over and over again.

WITH IT, there are NO LIMITS… there’s no limit to what we could attempt, no limit to how high we could soar, how big we could dream…

Sure, our dreams might end in the dust… but what if they don’t? Would you rather LIVE having tried to reach the life you WANT… or die with regret?

We need to let go of our need to fit in… fit in to this small box society placed us in… and we must imagine the life we really want… then, when we are certain what that life is, we have to go for it…

We only get one shot at this miracle of human life… live it fully and exactly how you want!

Sure, we all have dreams… the problem is MOST PEOPLE stuff their dreams in the closet when things get hard… when life presents challenges most people turn to what they know… they turn to what is EASY… but the easy road… and the KNOWN will never lead you to your dreams.

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” – Albert Einstein

“He who can no longer pause to wonder… and stand rapt in awe… is as good as dead; his eyes are closed.” – Albert Einstein

It really is that simple. It really is a choice. No matter the circumstances of our life we can choose to see everything around us as a miracle.

The very fact that we are here, in a human body, is said to be a ONE in FOUR HUNDRED TRILLION chance. Very few of us believe we are a walking miracle…

Sadly so many people are walking around, living their life in their head, pessimistic of the future and bitter from the past, so much so, that they are missing the miracles in the present.

Open your eyes and open your heart to the magic all around you. The miracle of human and animal life. The miracles of nature. The miracle of YOU and what you’re really capable of when you let go of caring what other people think of you…

Choose, from this moment on in your life… to SEEK and find the miracles around you.

“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.” – Albert Einstein

They say the only things guaranteed in life are death and taxes… you can add to that list – the impossibility to please everyone.

The simple fact is… when you want to change… as in, when you want to BETTER YOUR LIFE… there will be opposition, and unfortunately, that opposition is most likely to come from people close to you.

Many people won’t like your advancement because it will remind them of their lack of it. Many people won’t agree with your direction because it will remind them of their lack of it.

No matter WHAT or WHO the opposition… you must stay true to you, and true to what is right. Do the right thing, by others, and most importantly by yourself.

Those who matter will come around eventually, and those who don’t, don’t matter.

Live your life with purpose, intention, FULL OF SPIRIT and make no apologies to mediocre minds for dreaming and living big.

“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.” – Albert Einstein

“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” – Albert Einstein

Yes, we must dream big. Yes, we must try new things… but if life is not going the way you planned, perhaps it is time to try a different approach?

You don’t need to change your GOAL, but you might need to change the road you take to get to it.

Never stop learning and developing yourself. You will find a way.

“A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.” – Albert Einstein

The very fact you’re committed to grow, learn more and BE MORE almost guarantees you will make mistakes and fail, somewhere, somehow along the way.

Remember, it is only considered a failure though… if you give up. Keep at it, learn the lesson and allow it to serve you.

Don’t let anyone discourage you because of mistakes… it is a guaranteed trait of all winners and curious seekers.

“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.” – Albert Einstein

“I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.” – Albert Einstein

Never stop questioning… everything in your life.

Be so present, and in touch with yourself, that you can feel when it’s time for change.

Never lose that child-like curiosity to learn more, develop more, and discover more. Never lose HOPE that your best is yet to come. Never lose that knowing, that you are a miracle. Never lose that presence… that not many have…

“Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.” – Albert Einstein

Add value, wherever and whenever possible… not just in your work life, but in ALL interactions… with everyone… then, you will be a success… you will have more riches than money can buy.

LYRICS: Today Is The Day Song (Official Lyric Video) Fearless Motivation

Every morning when your feet hit the floor… tell yourself TODAY COULD BE THE DAY! Today could be the day that I turn my entire world upside down for the better. Today could be the day EVERYTHING in my life changes… TODAY IS THE DAY I take all things in my life to another level!

It only takes one moment
TODAY is the day
I’ve got to step up and own it
It only takes one decision
One action, one choice and I can have a better living

Each morning when I wake up, soon as my feet hit the floor
I say to myself “The world can be yours”
I’m doing things different,
I’ve set goals before but this time it’s different, I’m fully committed

I want a better life
More happiness, wealth and freedom
New achievements, I want it all
There will be better times
I’ve had my ups and downs
but you can’t learn to fly without taking a fall
And today is my day so I’m taking it all
Inhale, exhale, I’m raising the bar
I used to settle for a bronze medals
but today is the day I take my life to another level

I’ll never settle again
I’ll never settle again
Won’t let things stand in my way
Won’t let things stand in my way
I’ll never settle again
I’ll never settle again
Today is the day
Yeah it’s MY DAY!

Today is the day
The day where things change
This is the next chapter
Turning a new page
It only takes one moment
to change forever
TODAY is the day
The day where things change

Today I’m taking action
I’m straying from what usually happens
When you want to change
You know… you get fired up and set new goals
Work for a few days
Then you start losing traction

This time it’s different
I’m staying in the game, staying in the fast lane
Distractions stay out my way
Yeah I’ve got baggage and bills to pay
But without pressure
there’s no diamonds made
I say,
The drinks, the clubs, the parties they gotta go,
I’ve learnt that it’s okay to say NO
They might call me boring but I’ve gotta grow
My dreams will stay as dreams if I don’t work on my goals
Today is the day I’m taking control
I’m changing the roads and changing my role
Don’t know how many tomorrow’s I’ve got left
I vow to make today my best.
Today is the day

Today is the day
The day where things change
This is the next chapter
Turning a new page
It only takes one moment
to change forever

Transcript – Don’t You Dare Give Up On Yourself – Motivational Video – Fearless Motivation

Don’t you DARE GIVE UP ON YOURSELF…   It’s just so sad to see… that moment when someone gives up on themselves…  that moment when someone gives up on the life they deserve… because they listened to other people who did the same.

Listen to me, this is important…

Don’t you DARE GIVE UP ON YOURSELF… Other people might give up on you… BUT DON’T YOU DARE GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!

Other people might STOP BELIEVING IN YOU BUT DON’T YOU EVER GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!

People will let you down… you can guarantee that… but that is not important… what is important is that you don’t let YOURSELF DOWN.

Have INNER INTEGRITY. If you tell yourself you will do something: DO IT. If you try, and fail… TRY AGAIN… Learn the lesson… LEARN and GROW more until you are ready to CONQUER whatever it is in your life that needs CONQUERING.

Maybe your father walked out… Maybe your mother didn’t support you… Maybe your friends are never there for you… I don’t know your situation… but I do know this: The only way you can LOSE IN LIFE… is if you LOSE FAITH in yourself!

DON’T GIVE UP ON YOURSELF! DON’T LOSE FAITH! TRUST THAT YOU CAN TURN ANY SITUATION AROUND! YOU CAN.

How can YOU be better? How can you LEARN more and apply that LEARNING so you can EARN MORE? It’s all ABOUT YOU!

DO NOT GIVE UP IN YOU! BELIEVE IN YOU! BACK YOURSELF… In everything you do in life.

You don’t have a lot of friends? Well… How can YOU be a better friend? Because that is what will attract a better friend.

Whatever you WANT – you have to BE THAT! Whatever you WANT…. YOU CAN HAVE! But you have to be INTENTIONAL ABOUT IT and you CAN NOT GIVE UP believing you deserve it! YOU DO!

WHATEVER YOU WANT: YOU CAN HAVE! But you’ll never get it if you give up on yourself! Don’t you DARE GIVE UP ON YOURSELF!

You have to take OWNERSHIP of the space you occupy here on EARTH! It’s no one else’s responsibility to make you happy… IT’S YOURS!

It’s not their responsibility to BELIEVE IN YOU: IT’S YOURS! It’s not their responsibility to KEEP YOUR DREAM GOING: IT’S YOURS!

STAND UP! Take that responsibility and MAKE YOUR LIFE WORK FOR YOU!

LYRICS: The Chosen One (Official Music Video) Fearless Motivation

Sometimes you just want to quit…but what if I told you… You are… the chosen one.

Have you ever felt like an outcast?
Fought strong but felt like you’re outclassed?
Defeat is something that you feel when the doubts cast
A shadow to hide all road blocks you’ve got past.
I doubt that you will give up the run
I hear a loud blast and the race has begun
I see a spark strike when you touch the ground
The crowd’s chanting your name, and your focused to hunt that
Number one spot, at the top, at the finish line
If you’re not the best, then you haven’t finished (nah)

Be aware, no one cares if you trip and stop
Actually that makes it easier for them to take the top
Prepared to suffer, you’ll go through any pain
Aim for the win and be relentless, exclaim
That the trophy is going to be in your hands
And in the end engraved will be your name

When the days seem gray, don’t run
Bounce back because you are the chosen one.
Be the change and the light you need,
To be great you got to outsmart all of them.
Just believe and you’ll see that
Planted seeds grow tall when you water them.
Make sure that you think the right way,
You walk the way of the chosen one.

Let the naysayers talk
They will never feel ambition that you feel in your heart
You’re not defined by the principles
Society uses to lock itself in a box
You’re different cause you’ve broken out of it
And part of it is due to reason that you’re not a part of them
Fears have caught them in deep traps where they believe that

Horizon has narrowed down, but you’ve broadened it
Opened up your mind to witness the beauty of all worlds
Started taking notes to incorporate ’em in your world
Learned that hope is a part of the game
Just as pain is and some dangerous turns
Don’t lose your faith and what you believe in
Cause that’s the key ingredient, that is the secret
I know it’s tough when the cuts are deep
Wounds heal, remember that next time you bleed

When the days seem gray, don’t run
Bounce back because you are the chosen one.
Be the change and the light you need,
To be great you got to outsmart all of them.
Just believe and you’ll see that
Planted seeds grow tall when you water them.
Make sure that you think the right way,
You walk the way of the chosen one.

And, sometimes it just feels like… sometimes it’s so painful…
Sometimes it’s so hard to keep going…
But you got to keep on going man
You got to keep on going…
At the end of the finish line is everything you wish…
and trust me, YOU ARE THE CHOSEN ONE.

If You Can’t Focus & Get Distracted Easily: WATCH THIS

Sun, 08 Nov 2020 23:58:57 GMT

NIR EYAL, author of INDISTRACTABLE breaks down steps to eliminate everything that takes you away from the life you want to live, and move you toward TRACTION, with the goal of taking full control of your life.

Based on the book Indistractable and the work of Nir Eyal.

We cannot call something a distraction unless we know what it is distracting us from.

Let me say that again. You can’t call something a distraction unless you know what it distracted you from.

If you don’t plan your day, somebody is going to plan it for you. The social media companies, the news, your boss, your kids, somebody is going to take up that time in your day unless you decide in advance how you want to spend your time.

We need to talk about the leading cause of distraction. The leading cause of distraction is not what is happening outside of us. Because what I discovered in my five years of research is that most distraction begins from within. We call these “internal triggers”.

What are internal triggers? Internal triggers are uncomfortable emotional sensations that we seek to escape from.

You see, in fact, all human behavior, all human behavior, everything you do, you do for only one reason: the desire to escape discomfort.

So calling yourself indistractable doesn’t mean you never get distracted. That’s impossible. The difference between an indistractable person and a distractable person is that an indistractable person understands why they got distracted, and has the tools to do something about it.

There’s a wonderful Paulo Coelho quote. He said, “A mistake repeated more than once is a decision.” If we keep getting distracted by the same stupid things day after day, week after week, month after month, we are choosing to be distractable.

An indistractable person looks at why they got distracted with this methodology I’ve developed and understands the source of the problem to make sure that they don’t keep getting distracted by doing something today to prevent getting distracted tomorrow.

To understand distraction, we really need to understand what that word even means. When people say they got distracted, what does that actually mean? I didn’t understand the real definition of the term “distraction” until I started along this line of research. The best way to understand what distraction is, is to understand what distraction is not. If you ask most people what is the opposite of distraction, they’ll tell you it’s focus, of course, right? Hmm, not exactly. You see, if you look at the origin of the word distraction, the opposite of distraction is not focus, the opposite of distraction is traction, that both words come from the same Latin root “trahere”, which means “to pull”. So traction, by definition, is any action that pulls you towards what you said you were going to do, things that you do with intent, things that help you live out your values and become the kind of person you want to become.

Now, the opposite of traction is distraction. Distraction, by definition, is any action that pulls you away from what you plan to do, anything that is not consistent with your values, anything that pulls you away from becoming the kind of person you want to become.

So this isn’t just wordplay. This is incredibly important, because I would argue, any action can be either traction or distraction. Let me give you a great example. For years, every time I would get into work, I would sit down at my desk and I would say, “Okay, I’m going to get started on that big project, I’ve got to focus, I have to concentrate, I’m not going to get distracted. I’m not going to procrastinate.” I’m going to get started on that big project that I’ve been putting off. Here I go, I’m going to do it right now. But first, let me check some email, let me scroll this Slack channel. let me do all these other tasks that feel work related.” But really, I didn’t realize that I was allowing distraction to trick me into prioritizing the easy and urgent stuff to trick me into prioritizing the easy and urgent stuff as opposed to doing the important work that I knew I had to do.

So even tasks that feel like they’re work related, if it’s not what you plan to do with your time, they are, in fact, distractions. And in fact, they’re the most pernicious form of distractions, because if we play a video game at our desk, well, we clearly know we’re off task. But when we think we’re working on one project, when we think we’re doing one task that seems to be the right thing to do because it’s work related, but really, we’re putting off doing more important work. That is a much more sinister form of distraction. Conversely, just as anything can be a distraction, anything can be traction. So don’t listen to these chicken-little tech critics that tell you the sky is falling and that technology is addicting us and hijacking our brains. It’s rubbish.

There’s nothing wrong with playing a video game or watching a movie on Netflix or enjoying social media, if it’s what you PLAN to do with your time. You see, the difference between traction and distraction is one word. And that one word is “forethought”. The time you PLAN to waste is not wasted time.

So if you want to take a walk, take a nap, scroll social media, pray, meditate, whatever it is you want to do with your time is totally fine as long as you do it with intent, as long as you have planned ahead as to how you want to spend your time. You can otherwise turn a distraction into traction by planning ahead, by using forethought.

So now that we understand the difference between traction and distraction, we need to ask what drives us towards traction or distraction.

We have two kinds of triggers. The first kind of trigger is called an “external trigger”, and it’s what people tend to blame, the usual suspects like the pings, the dings, the rings, anything in your outside environment that can lead you towards traction or distraction. We can get back to those in just a minute. But first, I want to focus on what’s even more important than the external triggers.

We need to talk about the leading cause of distraction. The leading cause of distraction is not what is happening outside of us, because what I discovered in my five years of research is that most distraction begins from within. We call these “internal triggers”. What are internal triggers? Internal triggers are uncomfortable emotional sensations that we seek to escape from. You see, in fact, all human behavior, all human behavior, everything you do, you do for only one reason: the desire to escape discomfort. In fact, even the desire to feel pleasure is, itself, psychologically destabilizing. This is called the “homeostatic response”.

If you think about it, if you go outside and it’s cold, well, the brain tells you, “Oh, this is uncomfortable, you should put on a coat.” When you walk back inside, the brain says, “Oh, it’s too hot in here, take it off.” If you feel hunger pangs, you eat. If you’re full because you ate too much, you stop eating. And so physiologically, everything we do is about a desire to escape discomfort. This is called the “homeostatic response”. It’s pretty common sense.

But what most people don’t realize is that the same phenomenon occurs with our psychological sensations. Think about it. Where do people go when they’re feeling lonely? Well, you check a social network like Facebook. And what about when you’re uncertain? Before you scan your brain to see if you know the answer, you’re Googling? And what about when you’re feeling bored? Oh my goodness, so many solutions to boredom, right? Check the news, check stock prices, sports scores, Pinterest, Reddit, all kinds of solutions to take care of this uncomfortable sensation of boredom, because we don’t like those internal triggers, they don’t feel good, and we look for escape from them.

So here’s the fact of the matter:

TIME management is PAIN management.

And if all human behavior is about a desire to escape discomfort, if you don’t understand what is that emotional itch, what is the uncomfortable sensation you are looking to escape, whether it’s with too much news, too much booze, too much football, too much Facebook, it doesn’t matter; we have to first start by mastering these internal triggers, so that we can gain control over them, as opposed to them controlling us.

So now that we understand the difference between traction and distraction, and we understand that we are driven towards traction or distraction by internal and external triggers, we can actually plot out the four points of how we become indistractable. It starts, first and foremost, by mastering the internal triggers, by understanding the deeper reasons why we look for escape from those uncomfortable sensations. The next step is to make time for traction.

Over the past five years research in my book, I’ve talked to thousands of people, and many of them have complained to me about how distracting the world is, how they can’t get anything done because social media this, and did you hear what happened in the news that, and their boss wants this and their kids want that, and they tell me how distracted they are. But when I asked them, “Okay, but what did you get distracted from exactly? Let me see your calendar. What was it that you plan to do?” They haven’t a clue. Sometimes they’ll show me their calendar.

And I’m guilty of this as well. I used to do this several years ago before I wrote this book. My calendar was blank. I’d have maybe an appointment here and there, but for the most of my day, I didn’t have anything planned. What I did have was a super long to-do list with all kinds of tasks I wanted to check off. What I’ve since discovered is that running your day with a to-do list as opposed to a calendar, is just about the worst thing you could possibly do for your productivity. Instead of keeping it to do list, which we tend to tick off the easy stuff and the fun stuff as opposed to the important stuff, when we keep a calendar, not just a calendar, a time box calendar, we utilize this fundamental truth that we cannot call something a distraction unless we know what it is distracting us from.

Let me say that again. You can’t call something a distraction unless you know what it distracted you from. And so if you don’t plan your day, somebody is going to plan it for you. The social media companies, the news, your boss, your kids, somebody is going to take up that time in your day unless you decide, in advance, how you want to spend your time. There’s a reason we call it spending time and paying attention. The same type of language that we use to describe spending money and paying with dollars and cents, because our time and attention has value. And so if you just give it away to whoever wants it, don’t complain when you haven’t gotten done what you wanted to do with your time, and frankly, with your life.

So, this comes down to turning our values into time. What does that mean? Fundamentally, we have to ask ourselves, what are our values? So what are values anyway?

Values are attributes of the person you want to become, meaning you have to ask yourself, how would the person I want to become spend their time?

Now we can ask ourselves within these three life domains of you, your relationships, and finally your work. How would the person I want to become spend their time starting with you? So whatever is important for you in terms of personal values, how much time would the person you want to become spend on reading, on yoga, on prayer, on meditation, whatever it is that’s important to you, heck, playing video games, if that’s important to you, that’s part of your values, and the way you want to take care of yourself, wonderful, but plan that time in your schedule.

Next, our relationships. We are going through a global loneliness crisis, because over the past several decades, and this didn’t start with social media, but since the 1990s, social scientists have told us that the time that people devote to planned activities with their friends has markedly decreased. And so we can bring that back. We can make sure that we spend time with our friends, loved ones, and family members by putting time for it in our schedule.

If part of your value system involves being a devoted spouse, or a loving parent, or an available sibling, do you have that time to connect with the important people in your life scheduled and held on your calendar? And then finally, when it comes to our values around our work.

You see, work is split up into two kinds of work. We have what we call “reactive work” and “reflective work”. Reactive work is how most people spend most of their time at work. It’s responding to emails, answering phone calls, messages, slack notifications, reacting to what other people want you to do with your time. Now, that time is clearly part of many people’s jobs, but what we neglect to do is to carve out and protect time for reflective work.

Listen, if you want a leg up on the competition, if you want to do your job better than anyone else can, let me give you a little secret. Make time to think. You know why? Because it’s such a rare skill; nobody’s doing it.

Nobody’s making time in their day to work without distraction, to allow you the time to reflect, to plan, to strategize. You have got to have that time held and secured on your calendar.

So the second step to becoming indistractable is to make time for traction by keeping a time box calendar and then doing what we call “doing a schedule sync with the important stakeholders in your life.” So this will not only change your work-life balance, it’ll also change your relationship with your life partner. For example, when you can sit down with your schedule once a week, takes maybe 10-15 minutes, and review that physical artifact of your schedule, this is how we make sure that we live up to our obligations to others and to ourselves. The third step to becoming indistractable is to hack back our external triggers. So external triggers, again, are these pings, dings, and rings, anything in our outside environment that can lead us off track towards distraction rather than traction. And so there’s all kinds of things that we can do. Many of these things are really common sense.

Two thirds of Americans never change their smartphone notification settings. What? Can we really complain that our smartphones are addicting us when we haven’t taken five minutes to turn those notifications that don’t serve us, off?

So the critical question is to ask ourselves, when it comes to all of these external triggers, all of these pings and dings, which external triggers serve me and which am I serving? And to critically evaluate in all the different external triggers in your life, not just on your phone, but on your computer, at home, at work, meetings, emails, all of these external triggers, which are serving you and which are you serving? And it turns out that there are, in fact, thousands of free tools that we can use to hack back technology. And I used that term very deliberately. “To hack” means “to gain unauthorized access”. Does anybody not know that the big tech companies and the big media companies are in the business of harvesting our attention?

This isn’t something new to social media. If you think about newspapers, cable TV shows, all of them sell your eyeballs to the highest bidder. They sell them to advertisers. And there’s nothing necessarily wrong with the news or television or social media as long as you know what you’re in for. And the good news is, as opposed to television and newspapers, you can actually hack back with interactive technologies.

So there are all kinds of tools that we can use. For example, when I scroll Facebook, I love Facebook, but I don’t need to see that newsfeed. There’s a free Chrome extension called Facebook Newsfeed Eradicator that does exactly what it says. It gets rid of that newsfeed so that you can check Facebook without looking at this wall of noise. Instead, you can go to specific friends and see what’s up on their specific pages. Another great tool is YouTube DF. I love YouTube videos. You’re probably watching me on YouTube right now. But do I really need to see all those ads, all those extra videos that are put there in order to keep me watching and watching? No, I can install a great Chrome extension called YouTube DF. DF stands for “distraction free”. And this free Chrome extension will scrub out all the superfluous stuff around the video, so that you can just see the video you’re watching without a lot of the tricks that they use to keep you hooked. But this is really the tip of the iceberg.

We can learn how to hack back these external triggers in all different facets of our life. How to hack back meetings, how to hack back email, how to even hack back working from home when so many of us are working at home and our kids might distract us from time to time, what do we do to make sure that we can hack back all the various distractions in our life, so that these external triggers lead us towards traction rather than distraction?

Finally, the fourth step to becoming indistractable is preventing distraction with pacts. Pacts implement this psychological technique of making a precommitment. Now, a precommitment is when we decide, in advance, what we want to do to prevent ourselves from doing something we don’t want to do. And there are three types of pacts. We have effort pacts, price pacts, and identity pacts. Effort packs are when we put some bit of friction in between us and something we don’t want to do.

So for example, in my household, for many years, I found that my wife and I were going to bed later and later every night. She was scrolling her iPad and I was on my computer. And so one night, we decided to use some of these techniques, and we decided to get ourselves a $10 outlet timer. Now, this outlet timer, you plug it into the wall outlet, and anything you plug into it will turn on or off at any time of designated day or night. So in my household, at every night at 10 pm, my internet router shuts off. In fact, today you can buy internet routers with this functionality built right in, so some devices can stay on while others turn off. And this is an incredibly effective technique to make a pact with yourself. Now, could I get back online somehow? Of course, I could find a way to cheat. But I’ve inserted a bit of mindfulness because of the extra effort required so that I can think for a minute and say to myself, “Wait a minute, is this really important, is this really consistent with my values, or is this leading me down the path of distraction rather than traction?” So that’s one example of an effort pact. A price pact is when we put some kind of monetary disincentive on the line. And then perhaps the most powerful of the three types of pacts is what we call an “identity pact”. And identity pact comes out of the psychology of religion.

Research has shown us that when we have some kind of name, some kind of moniker that we identify with, it becomes much more likely that we’ll reach our long-term goals.

So for example, when someone calls themselves a devout Muslim or an observant Christian or even, for that matter, a vegetarian. A vegetarian doesn’t wake up in the morning and say, “Hmm, I wonder if I’ll have a bacon sandwich for breakfast?” No, a vegetarian knows that they don’t eat that because they don’t eat meat. They are a vegetarian. Well, we can adopt a similar mindset and use this psychological hack ourselves by labeling ourselves as indistractable.

When you think of yourself as the kind of person who strives to do what they say they’re going to do, the kind of person who lives with personal integrity, you can call yourself indistractable. And that moniker has been shown to help us stay on track and achieve our long-term goals. One of the things I learned over the past five years of researching the psychology of distraction, is that distraction is not a new thing. Facebook and the internet and the iPhone didn’t invent distraction.

In fact, Plato, the Greek philosopher, talked about distraction over 2500 years ago. He called it ‘akrasia’ in the Greek; the tendency that we have to do things against our better interest. And Plato wondered why is it that despite knowing what to do, we don’t just do it. And if this was difficult in Plato’s day, it’s even more baffling today. In previous generations, people could say, “Well, I don’t know what to do. I don’t have access to the information to tell me some kind of secrets.” But there are no secrets. Who doesn’t basically know how to lose weight? You have to eat right and exercise. Who doesn’t basically know how to improve your work performance? You have to do the work, especially the hard stuff that other people don’t want to do. Who doesn’t know that to improve our relationships with our family and loved ones, we have to be fully present and invest in those relationships?

We already know this stuff. What we don’t know is how to stop getting in our own way. How do we stop getting distracted?

You see, there are typically two types of people when it comes to dealing with distraction. We have what we call the “blamers” and the “shamers”. The blamers blame things outside themselves. “It’s Facebook, it’s my boss, it’s the modern world these days that makes me so distracted and unable to accomplish my goals.” And then you have the shamers. The shamers, they don’t blame things outside themselves; they shame themselves. And here’s what it sounds like.

This is what I used to do all the time. “Oh, maybe there’s something wrong with me. I’m not very good at focusing. Maybe I have an addictive personality. Maybe I’m this, maybe I’m that. There I go again, doing this thing that I said I wasn’t going to do once again. There’s probably something broken in my brain.” And that’s almost never the case. Both techniques are not very effective. The blamer blames things outside of themselves that they have virtually no control to change.

We can go back into some time machine before these technologies existed. And even if we could, there was no magical time without distraction. The shamers really harm themselves with that mindset because the more shame we feel, the worst we feel. And ironically, when we feel shame, a very uncomfortable emotion, many people escape that sensation with guess what? More distraction to take their mind off of how crummy they feel about themselves. So we don’t want to be blamers. We don’t want to be shamers.

We want to be what we call “claimers”. Claimers claim responsibility not for how they feel. This is a really important point. Most people don’t realize you cannot control your feelings, you can only control how you respond to those feelings, that the reason we get distracted, the reason we procrastinate, it’s not a character flaw, there’s nothing wrong with you; it’s simply that you don’t have the tools to deal with those uncomfortable feelings in a healthy manner to lead you towards traction rather than distraction.

You see, many things in the world these days are not your fault. You didn’t invent Facebook, you didn’t invent social media, you didn’t create what’s happening in the news today; these things aren’t your fault. But managing your response to the discomfort that you feel every day that can lead you towards distraction is your responsibility. Many people will classify distraction as certain behaviors. Playing a video game, that’s bad, that’s distracting, but doing your work is somehow good. But that can’t be right. I would argue that any action can be either traction or distraction, whether it’s something we do with intent, with forethought.

So for example, if you sit down at your desk, and guide your work life based on what’s on your to-do list, you’re going to have attention for doing the things that are urgent, easy, or fun, as opposed to doing the stuff that’s actually important. You see, distraction tricks us by us thinking that what we’re working on is what we think we should be doing: checking emails. slack notifications, whatever it is that seems like a work related task.

What we’re doing is allowing distraction to trick us into doing what I call “pseudo work”: these things that we feel like we’re being productive by doing these work-related tasks, but if it’s not what we plan to do with our time, working on that big report, finishing that proposal, whatever the case might be, not doing the work we’re avoiding, that is, in fact, a more dangerous, insipid form of distraction because we don’t even realize we’re getting distracted.

So being indistractable is really the skill of the century. Look, if you think that the world is distracting today, just wait a few years. All trends point to the fact that the world will become an increasingly distracting place.

As technology improves and becomes more ubiquitous, there will be more potentially distracting things in the world. Whether it’s virtual reality or augmented reality or who knows what other kinds of reality, the temptation to get distracted will only increase if you are looking for distraction and you are not armed to deal with it. Which is why becoming indistractable really will be the skill of the century.

Look, I think, in the future, there will be two kinds of people in the world. There will be the kind of people who allow their time and attention and their lives to be manipulated and controlled by others. And there will be the kind of people who stand up and say, “No, I will decide how I spend my time, how I spend my attention, how I live my life. I am indistractable.”

So you hear a lot of people these days saying that technology is addicting us, that it’s hijacking our brains, and there’s basically nothing that we can do about it. And I want to tell you right now that you are much more powerful than you think. Look, I wrote the book on how companies get us hooked. The book is called Hooked: How to Build Habit Forming Products. And I know every which way that these companies are designed to manipulate your time and attention. And I will tell you, these techniques that the tech companies use are good; they’re not that good. Meaning if we use a few simple techniques to regain control over our time and attention, we are much more powerful than the tech companies.

One of the worst things that you can do is to believe that you are somehow addicted. Now, some people are in fact addicted. If you think about alcohol, for example, alcohol is highly addictive, but is everyone who has a glass of wine or a beer with dinner an alcoholic? Of course not. Very few people are actually addicted to alcohol, and very few people are actually addicted to social media. Now, short of people with the pathology of addiction, the rest of us have to understand that there are things that we can do right now that are very simple to do to make sure that we can control these technologies, as opposed to these technologies controlling us.

The study of what people will do when they feel bored is fascinating. In fact, a study by Timothy Wilson at Harvard found that a significant proportion of people would rather shock themselves with an electrical shock they were told would be painful, than to sit alone in a room and feel boredom. Now, this study reveals to us that there are steps that we will take to try and avoid this uncomfortable sensation, that we would rather have some kind of stimulus than to be stuck alone feeling this uncomfortable emotional itch.

So what this tells us is that we have to find ways to cope with discomfort in a healthier manner. Because many of us, when we feel bored, lonesome, indecisive, fatigued, uncertainty, we reflexively look for some kind of escape. whether that escape is by turning on the television or checking our phones or doing something to take our mind off of that discomfort. Instead, what we can do is we can use those internal triggers, those uncomfortable emotional sensations as rocket fuel to move us forward towards traction, as opposed to trying to escape them with distraction. How can we do that? Well, we have to start with understanding that feeling bad is not bad.

I think that there’s a very popular myth in the self-help communities these days, that somehow if we feel any kind of emotional discomfort, we have to escape it as quickly as possible; that if we feel lonesome or bored or indecisive or anxious or fatigued or stressed, God forbid, we should have to feel those sensations. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth.

The default human condition is not to be perpetually happy, to be always contented; quite the opposite. Our default state is perpetual disquietude, is always wanting more. And if you think about it, what drives entrepreneurs, artists, politicians, what drives people to change the world is this uncomfortable desire for more, to do something better. That’s what has always driven our species forward. And if you can harness that discomfort and use it to your advantage, this is how we get ahead, this is how we make the world a better place, by understanding that discomfort and dealing with it in a healthy way, as opposed to trying to escape it with distraction in an unhealthy manner.

So there’s a technique called “progressive extremism” that can really be a useful tactic if you’re trying to change your life in a positive manner. And this acknowledges the fact that temporary fixes are pointless. What’s the point of getting in shape by going on some kind of fad diet so you can fit in your wedding dress for just one day, if you’re not maintaining a healthy lifestyle forever? The point of getting in shape is to have the benefits for the rest of your life. So instead of having some kind of crash diet, which we know people tend to bounce back from and with a vengeance, instead, what we want to do is to train ourselves with this technique called progressive extremism.

What does progressive extremism mean? Progressive extremism means that we are going to remove some kind of unhealthy behavior in our life for the rest of our lives, nut we’re going to do it in a very small way.

Here’s how it works: So for me, when I decided I wanted to eat less processed sugar, I didn’t say, “That’s it, I’m never touching processed sugar ever again.” Instead, what I said was, “I am going to cut out one food that’s refined sugar for the rest of my life.” But it has to be easy. So the first food I started with was candy corn. Now, I don’t know if you like candy corn, I don’t really like candy corn all that much. I would eat it kind of on Halloween when my daughter would bring it back from trick-or-treating. It’s kind of the dregs of the Halloween haul. And so I decided one year, “You know what? I’m eating these things not because I like them, but because they’re just here. Well, they’re never going to be here ever again.” And so I pledged myself, “I’m never going to eat another candy corn for the rest of my life.” No big deal, I didn’t really like him to begin with. And then I was ready to do a bit more, to progress. So the next thing I said I’m not going to eat ever again, was I excised sodas, sugary sodas in the house. Now, I told myself I could drink sugary sodas outside the house, just not in the house. That was the first tiny baby step that I was going to take along this path of progressive extremism. When I was ready, about a month later, I decided to excise more and more and more. And so today, after years of doing this, there’s all kinds of things that I just don’t eat. And what we’re doing is leveraging an identity that we know that people who say that “they don’t” versus those who say “I can’t”, are much more likely to stick with their long-term goals.

Because when you say “I don’t do something,” for example, “I don’t eat meat, I am a vegetarian,” versus “Oh, no, thanks, I can’t because I’m on a diet,” you’re much more likely to stick over the long term. So when you regularly review this list of “Wow, look at all the things that I don’t have in my life anymore, starting with candy corn, sugary drinks,” whatever the case might be these small, simple things that you’ve removed from your life over years, and this takes time and commitment, what you’ll find is that you’ll be very proud to have this entire list of things that you don’t really miss anymore, because you took this path of progressive extremism. So if there’s one mantra that summarizes my five years of research into the psychology of distraction, it’s this: that the antidote to impulsiveness is forethought.

You see, our species has an amazing gift that no other animal on the face of the earth has, which is that we can see into the future. We can predict what is going to happen with greater fidelity than any other animal that roams the earth. And so we should use that capability because if you wait till the last minute, you will lose. If you wait until the cigarette is lit in your hand, you’re going to smoke it. If you wait till the chocolate cake is on a fork on the way to your mouth, you’re going to eat it.

If you sleep next to your cell phone every night, of course, it’s going to be the first thing you pick up in the morning before you say hello to your loved one. So don’t wait to the last minute. What I discovered in my five years of research, is that people who are indistractable, they don’t have a lot of willpower, they don’t have a lot of self-control; what they have is a system. They plan today to make sure they don’t get distracted tomorrow. By mastering the internal triggers, making time for traction, hacking back the external triggers, and preventing distraction with pacts, this is how anyone can become indistractable.

Transcript – I AM HERE FOR A REASON – Motivational Speech – Fearless Motivation

I see a lot of people wandering around aimlessly… they have no sense of purpose, no direction… and NO INTENTION to make their life any better.

  No matter how bad it gets for them… it seems like it NEVER gets bad enough to force them to change…

That… That makes me sad. It makes me sad because I know they could find purpose and meaning. I know they could create a better life for themselves.

  People who live AMAZING, ABUNDANT lives… People who have PURPOSE and MEANING in their life… They BELIEVE one important thing DEEPLY:   I AM HERE FOR A REASON!

Listen to me!   I didn’t say I AM HERE FOR A SEASON!   I said I AM HERE FOR A REASON!

If you could believe, at the deepest level of your soul that YOU BELONG here… If you could believe you HAVE PURPOSE here on earth…   If you could believe their IS A REASON YOU EXIST ON THIS PLANET…   How would you show up every day?

I’ll tell you how:   You’d show up with PASSION and INTENTION!

You’d be on the HUNT for that reason… you’d be hunting down your goals and dreams and you WOULD NOT believe in limitations because YOU KNOW you are here for a REASON… NOT a season.

FAILURES don’t define you when you believe you are here for a REASON!   FAILURE is an obstacle, a set back… not a death sentence… because it’s just a SEASON!

  NO set back can stop a person who knows their REASON is greater than any SEASON  . YOUR REASON is greater than any SEASON!

Tell yourself every day:

I AM HERE FOR A REASON!
I HAVE PURPOSE!
MY LIFE HAS MEANING!
 I AM HERE FOR A REASON!
I’m here for a REASON not just a season!
MY REASON is greater than ANY SEASON!
I’m not just passing by !
I’m leaving a legacy.  I’m making my mark. Creating a spark.
 I AM HERE WITH PURPOSE!
 I AM HERE WITH INTENTION!
 I AM HERE WITH DIRECTION!
I AM HERE FOR A REASON!

You have to believe that you are here for a reason… a great reason… there is MEANING to your life… MEANING that will enhance more than just your life… PURPOSE that will change many other lives.

 When you believe there is A REASON YOU EXIST ON THIS PLANET… You show up with PASSION and INTENTION!  YOU ATTACK THE DAY! You don’t hold back on your dreams… YOU DREAM BIGGER!   You know NOTHING CAN STOP YOU!   

Let me hear you say it:

I AM HERE FOR A REASON!
I HAVE PURPOSE!
I AM HERE FOR A REASON!
MY LIFE HAS MEANING!
I AM HERE FOR A REASON!
NOT JUST A SEASON!
I’m here for a REASON not just a season!
MY REASON is greater than ANY SEASON!
I’m not just passing by !
I’m leaving a legacy.  I’m making my mark. Creating a spark.
I AM HERE WITH PURPOSE
I AM HERE WITH INTENTION!
I AM HERE WITH DIRECTION!
I AM HERE FOR A REASON!

The Eagle and The Crow – Motivational Speech – Fearless Motivation – WATCH:

Transcript – GO HIGHER – Motivational Speech (The Eagle and Crow) – Fearless Motivation

I came across this image and story the other day and had to share it with you all.

The image, as you can see, is of a crow, sitting on the back of an eagle. The crow is biting the eagle as it is flying, high in the sky.

The story says:

“The only bird that will dare peck at an eagle is the crow. The crow sits on the eagles back and bites his neck.”

Now listen to this:

“The eagle does not respond or fight with the crow. It simply opens up its wings and begins to rise higher and higher in the sky.”

“The higher the eagle flies, the harder it is for the crow to breathe, and then, due to a lack of oxygen, the crow falls away and the eagle is free.”

 What’s the moral of the story?  

Stop wasting your time with the CROWS of LIFE!

The crow represents all the challenges of LIFE!

The crow represents so many things in your life…   Some people that should not be in your life… critics… opinions… distractions… all the annoyances of life.   Everything that is pecking at you, prodding you, disturbing you, AND challenging you.

You can choose to fight everything, wasting your precious energy and getting nowhere… or you can SOAR HIGHER like the eagle and watch all of your challenges fade away.  

When people criticise you: GO HIGHER.
When life challenges you: GO HIGHER.
When there seems to be endless problems pecking at you: GO HIGHER!

You go higher by GETTING BETTER!   You go higher by doing that WORK ON YOU.   LEARNING MORE so you can BE MORE!   WORKING HARDER and WORKING SMARTER so you can RESPOND BETTER.

Then, when the ‘crows of life’ appear, they won’t stay around for long, because they will not be able to BREATHE at your level!

Most challenges disappear when you go HIGHER.

Problems can only disturb you when you’re not good enough to handle them.  

When YOU improve, your LIFE improves.  When YOU improve, your response to EVERY CHALLENGE life throws at you is STRONGER… and so it makes sense that your LIFE will be STRONGER!  

So when life challenges you today, be an EAGLE…  GO HIGHER!

Imagine living your dreams and everything you wanted became true
What would you do if you had one shot, if you had one chance to do what you love to?
Would you take it, grasp it and embrace the fact that this chance just might be your breakthrough? You’ve only got one life and just know it’s a canvas YOU paint to.

Imagine living your dreams and everything you wanted became true
What would you do if you had one shot, if you had one chance to do what you love to?
Would you take it, grasp it and embrace the fact that this chance just might be your breakthrough?
You’ve only got one life and just know it’s a canvas YOU paint to.

You probably got a dream, do you?
Thinking bout it non stop? no one believes in you? Everybody tryna tell you that you can’t do something
And you feel goosebumps going straight through you.

Just imagine all that can happen if you just say yes to yourself
One can live a happy life but only if it is built by himself

Imagine living your dreams and everything you wanted became true
What would you do if you had one shot, if you had one chance to do what you love to?
Would you take it, grasp it and embrace the fact that this chance just might be your breakthrough?
You’ve only got one life and just know it’s a canvas YOU paint to.

If life was a painting
Choices would be tools that you’re gonna use to paint it,
Each one is a different color,
Some are gonna be sweet and some just dangerous
But no matter what they are you are the one that is holding the brush
A lot of colors won’t fit but you’re never gonna know unless you dare to try em out.

Imagine living your dreams and everything you wanted became true
What would you do if you had one shot, if you had one chance to do what you love to?
Would you take it, grasp it and embrace the fact that this chance just might be your breakthrough?
You’ve only got one life and just know it’s a canvas YOU paint to.

Imagine living your dreams and everything you wanted became true
What would you do if you had one shot, if you had one chance to do what you love to?
Would you take it, grasp it and embrace the fact that this chance just might be your breakthrough?

Transcript – The World Is A Jungle – Motivational Speech – Fearless Motivation

That’s the story for most people…  they just give up far too soon… 

They say they want their dream… but you NEVER see them fight for it.  They say they “want it bad”… but as soon as things get hard… they run away… 

Let me tell you something…    The world is a jungle… you either FIGHT AND DOMINATE… or hide and evaporate. 

No, I don’t mean fight physically… I mean FIGHT FOR WHAT YOU WANT. 

Don’t misinterpret my words.   Don’t mix up the meaning here… I don’t mean physical fighting.  I do NOT mean fighting other people.  It’s about fighting for your dreams!  Showing some CHARACTER!  Defeating your challenges! 

Fighting the negative voices around you AND the negativity WITHIN YOU! 

FIGHT BACK!  FIGHT FOR THE LIFE YOU MUST HAVE!! 

 When life challenges you – if you’re not ready to FIGHT for your DREAM… you’ll never have it. 

If you don’t STAND UP to your toughest challenges… you’ll DIE INSIDE… a slow death caused by the blows of regret and self- disappointment! 

I will never allow that for my life.    In my life… I am the king of the jungle!  I will never HIDE from challenges.  I welcome PRESSURE.  I THRIVE under pressure. 

To any obstacle, I say: “May the best man win” 

That’s what it’s all about to me:  GIVING EVERYTHING I HAVE TO LIFE.  This one shot we have. 

Going after EVERYTHING that you want – and GIVING EVERY OUNCE of yourself to get it! 

Whatever you want in life: YOU CAN HAVE IT… but you have to be HUNGRY for it. 

Only those who are HUNGRY for RESULTS get to eat at the table of SUCCESS. 

 Don’t worry, there’s enough at the table for everyone… but everyone will not be in attendance…  Because MOST PEOPLE are dining with disappointment… 

Most people are hiding from their TRUE POTENTIAL… they never give even HALF of what they have inside… and as a result they never live even HALF of their GREATEST LIFE.   

Please… please… please don’t let that be you. 

The world is a jungle… you either FIGHT AND DOMINATE… or hide and evaporate. 

When life challenges you – if you’re not ready to FIGHT for your DREAM… you’ll never have it! 

If you don’t STAND UP to your toughest challenges… you’ll DIE INSIDE…  

Don’t allow regret and disappointment into your life!  When challenges appear: SHOW THE WORLD WHO YOU REALLY ARE. 

Success or failure – It doesn’t matter. Live with PRIDE knowing you NEVER QUIT! 

Live with PRIDE knowing you truly gave every ounce of your soul for your dream life.

Should’ve stayed, were there signs, I ignored?
Can I help you, not to hurt, anymore?
We saw brilliance, when the world, was asleep
There are things that we can have, but can’t keep

If they say…
Who cares if one more light goes out?
In a sky of a million stars
It flickers, flickers

Who cares when someone’s time runs out?
If a moment is all we are
We’re quicker, quicker
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do

The reminders pull the floor from your feet
In the kitchen, one more chair than you need oh
And you’re angry, and you should be, it’s not fair
Just ’cause you can’t see it, doesn’t mean it, isn’t there

If they say
Who cares if one more light goes out?
In a sky of a million stars
It flickers, flickers

Who cares when someone’s time runs out?
If a moment is all we are
We’re quicker, quicker
Who cares if one more light goes out?
Well I do

Who cares if one more light goes out?
In a sky of a million stars
It flickers, flickers

Who cares when someone’s time runs out?

What do you do… what do you do when the mountain seems too large… when the weight of the world feels too heavy… when the burden is too much to carry… when the hole seems too deep to climb out?

What do you do… when it all seems… impossible?

You might be going through something right now… it might be frustrating… you might be working hard to change and not seeing any results…

You may have tried ALMOST everything and NOTHING has worked…   You can be frustrated… but you can NOT QUIT… Because quitting is the ONLY WAY TO GUARANTEE FAILURE. QUITTING IS THE ONLY WAY TO GUARANTEE THE SUFFERING STAYS.

No matter how you feel… KEEP GOING.

When it seems unlikely… when it seems impossible… when it seems like there is NO WAY OUT… I tell myself this:

DAY BY DAY… ONE DAY AT A TIME… I WILL BE CLOSER.
STEP BY STEP… ONE STEP AT A TIME…I WILL BE CLOSER.
CHOICE BY CHOICE… ONE CHOICE AT A TIME… I WILL BE BETTER.

If I look at the enormous mountains ahead I might never take that first step… but if I take that first step… and my focus is always on the next step… and I continue to take those strong steps FORWARD… soon I will have gained so much strength and so much PROGRESS… that I will have no choice but to finish my journey.

If I tackle my challenges DAY BY DAY… and my focus is on IMPROVING EVERY DAY… NOT by conquering EVERYTHING immediately, just improving every day…  I WILL IMPROVE EVERY DAY!

With progress comes momentum… and the two together, with CONSISTENCY makes CHANGE.

If my GOAL is to be closer to my destination EVERY DAY… to be STRONGER EVERY DAY… it won’t be long until I see PROGRESS…   and that progress will create confidence and STRENGTH to move FORWARD again.

I WILL BE STRONGER EVERY DAY!  I WILL BE CLOSER EVERY DAY!

Do not give up!
GIVE YOURSELF ONE DAY!
ONE DAY OF COMMITMENT!
ONE DAY OF INTENTION!
ONE DAY OF FOCUS!

ONE DAY WHERE YOU LOVE YOURSELF ENOUGH TO MAKE POWERFUL CHOICES THAT WILL BENEFIT YOUR LIFE!

ONE DAY WHERE YOU CARE ENOUGH ABOUT YOUR LIFE TO STAND UP FOR WHAT REALLY MATTERS TO YOU!

ONE DAY WHERE YOU’RE STRONG ENOUGH TO SAY NO TO EVERYTHING THAT MAKES YOU FEEL LESS THAN THE POWERFUL FORCE YOU ARE!

ONE DAY. JUST ONE DAY!

CONQUER ONE DAY! Give yourself the gift of ONE DAY!

DAY BY DAY… ONE DAY AT A TIME… I WILL BE CLOSER.
STEP BY STEP… ONE STEP AT A TIME…I WILL BE CLOSER.
CHOICE BY CHOICE… ONE CHOICE AT A TIME… I WILL BE BETTER.

  I WILL NOT QUIT!
I KNOW IT WILL BE HARD… AND I KNOW IT WILL BE WORTH IT!
I KNOW I DESERVE IT!
I AM STRONG ENOUGH TO DO THIS!

No matter how low you feel… you can get through this. Take it step by step… one day at a time.

LYRICS: Right Here (Official Music Video) Fearless Motivation

I’ve been living in a dream, fighting to defeat
all the demons in nightmares,
I know who I wanna be, got the courage and belief
like a knight on a white mare,
Voices telling me that I need to run
but I scream I’ll be right here
I am never gonna leave
what I deem my dream,
no matter what I might bear.

I’ve been living in a dream, fighting to defeat
all the demons in nightmares,
I know who I wanna be, got the courage and belief
like a knight on a white mare,
Voices telling me that I need to run
but I scream I’ll be right here
I am never gonna leave
what I deem my dream,
no matter what I might bear.

I will never fear pain, I will never fear to fail, I will never fear change,
’cause I know I won’t change, both when the sky falls and on the sunniest of days,
I know myself, I know my worth and I know who I am
so I don’t really care what life’s gon throw when I’m walking on my way.

They can keep running from fears but I know I’mma be right here.
I will face those fears, I may shed some tears but I’ll never be controlled by a fear.
I don’t care about the things or the consequences resting on my mind I might hear.
I’mma fight for my dreams on this battlefield and if I have to I will die here.

I’ve never had traits of a coward, challenges that threatened me I’ve devoured,
Man I like some pain, ’cause it makes the plate kind of a bit bitter and sour

Plus I like the sound of dreams coming true, it’s even got a ring to it too.
I’m feeling like the fate is on my side and somehow we are both in tune.
I just know that I’mma be someone you gon’ consider brave,
Toss me in a cage and I’ll boss the fiercest flame,

There’s no enduring chain to keep me away, to make me enslaved
I got a will as strong as a stronghold and I promise it’s so sheer
I’m gonna guard my dreams and always know I’ll be right here

Transcript – This is Why You Don’t Succeed – Motivational Video – Fearless Motivation

If you’re complaining about why you haven’t achieved your goals yet… the first problem is just that… you complain too much. 

If you’re not willing to work for it… don’t complain about not having it. If you don’t know why you haven’t achieved anything GREAT in your life yet… let me tell you why… THIS is why you don’t succeed…

NUMBER ONE: You think about what it’s going to cost more than what it is WORTH.

Ed Mylett said, “Successful people don’t negotiate price – they negotiate worth” Is your dream WORTH the price you must pay to get it?

The sacrifice… The long days… The early mornings and the late nights. The lonely road… The effort… The failures… The
embarrassment… Is the end result worth the pain?

Most people count the COST but are never willing to pay the PRICE. Successful people PAY UP FRONT and they are PAID BACK WITH INTEREST IN THE FUTURE.

Don’t count the cost of your dreams! UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS WORTH AND PAY ANY PRICE TO GET IT.

NUMBER TWO: You point the finger outwards but never inwards.

If you want to see the person responsible for all your failures in life: LOOK IN THE MIRROR. The good news is, you won’t have to move to see the person who is responsible for all your achievements.

TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for everything that shows up in your life. The wins. The losses. The blessings. The lessons. OWN THEM ALL.

FINANCIAL CRISIS destroyed your business? OWN IT. LEARN FROM IT. GROW FROM IT.

6 months of your savings wiped out? Why didn’t you have 6 years worth? LEARN from it. GROW from it. IMPROVE from it.

Partner took everything in nasty break up? Could you have picked a better partner? OWN IT… Learn from it. GROW from it.

It’s easy to blame everyone and everything for our failures isn’t it… that means we don’t have to do anything to change… Blaming gets you off the hook… but it will never get you the life you dream of. ONLY RESPONSIBILITY WILL DO THAT. TAKE THAT RESPONSIBILITY.

NUMBER THREE: YOUR WORD MEANS NOTHING.

If you say you are going to do something: DO IT. If you don’t, you will lose respect from 2 people: Firstly the person you gave your word to, but more importantly YOURSELF.

Every time you go against your word you lose integrity and respect for yourself. Be someone who follows through with their word.

If you can’t get something done on time, be honest and open about it. Don’t BS, knowing you won’t do something. People respect honesty over EVERYTHING.

If you have no intention of seeing someone again, tell them.

If you’re struggling at work… tell someone.

Be one of the rare few who are REAL ENOUGH with themselves and others. THAT IS WHAT BUILDS RESPECT and powerful relationships. With others and within yourself.

NUMBER FOUR: You live for other peoples praise, not your own PURPOSE.

Most people do just about everything in their life… thinking about what other people will think of them.

They pick a job that they think other people will think is a great job. They pick a partner that they think other people will think is a great partner.

They do everything based on what they think other people will think. OTHER PEOPLE. WHAT ABOUT YOU?

You can not be successful if you are living your life for other people’s approval.

This is not someone else’s life. This is yours… and you can never live it fully and reach your true potential if you are a fraud.

PICK EVERYTHING IN LIFE THAT YOU WANT. FOLLOW YOUR PASSIONS… not your parents passions… or what you think looks good to your circle. YOUR PASSION.

CHASE THINGS THAT ARE PURPOSEFUL TO YOU… it will make working on it far easier. It will make quitting impossible.

NUMBER FIVE: You are obsessed with money, but not your purpose.

The great irony is most unsuccessful people think that successful people are obsessed with money… but successful people rarely ever stress over money… Unsuccessful people do.

Successful people don’t gamble to “win big” or play the lottery… unsuccessful people do.

No successful person is obsessed with money. They are obsessed with ADDING VALUE… with CREATING something special… with GROWING and PUSHING THE LIMITS. Their focus is rarely ever on financial reward but with personal satisfaction in what they are doing.

Chase the money alone and you will be alone chasing it forever. Chase your purpose and the money and fulfilment will chase you.

Don’t get distracted by shiny objects – chase MEANING and PURPOSE instead.

If you think you’ve been working hard and haven’t made it yet… work harder… work smarter… find another way… there is always a way.

“Imagination is more important than knowledge.” – Albert Einstein

“The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.” – Albert Einstein

“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.” – Albert Einstein

Imagination is the preview of life’s coming attractions, because without it we are guaranteed to repeat the same patterns, make the same mistakes and live the same life over and over again.

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” – Albert Einstein

“Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.” – Albert Einstein

Many people won’t like your advancement because it will remind them of their lack of it. Many people won’t agree with your direction because it will remind them of their lack of it.

 Failure and dreams both offering,
but both offering change
Surrender offers rest,
but I’d die for peace
Don’t need your protection,
don’t need no shield

The winds of life are blowing
It brings doubt like rain
but I would roar like thunder
and I will storm like hail

Failure is not an option. I will not just survive.
Freedom is near. I choose to THRIVE.
I will live full force, never on my knees.
I will smash the door, if I can’t find the keys.
I will not back down. I will not yield.
Just like William Wallace, I need no shield

MAKE THAT COMMITMENT to yourself and this time FOLLOW THROUGH…
FOR YOU!

You have to constantly ask yourself:
HOW CAN I MOVE FORWARD?…
How can I move past this?
How can I be better?
What can I learn from this?

It only takes one moment
TODAY is the day
I’ve got to step up and own it
It only takes one decision
One action, one choice and I can have a better living

Today is the day
The day where things change
This is the next chapter
Turning a new page
It only takes one moment
to change forever
TODAY is the day
The day where things change

And, sometimes it just feels like… sometimes it’s so painful…
Sometimes it’s so hard to keep going…
But you got to keep on going man
You got to keep on going…
At the end of the finish line is everything you wish…
and trust me, YOU ARE THE CHOSEN ONE.

  No matter how bad it gets for them… it seems like it NEVER gets bad enough to force them to change…

  People who live AMAZING, ABUNDANT lives… People who have PURPOSE and MEANING in their life… They BELIEVE one important thing DEEPLY:   I AM HERE FOR A REASON!

  NO set back can stop a person who knows their REASON is greater than any SEASON  . YOUR REASON is greater than any SEASON!

 When you believe there is A REASON YOU EXIST ON THIS PLANET… You show up with PASSION and INTENTION!  YOU ATTACK THE DAY! You don’t hold back on your dreams… YOU DREAM BIGGER!   You know NOTHING CAN STOP YOU!   

 What’s the moral of the story?  

You can choose to fight everything, wasting your precious energy and getting nowhere… or you can SOAR HIGHER like the eagle and watch all of your challenges fade away.  

You go higher by GETTING BETTER!   You go higher by doing that WORK ON YOU.   LEARNING MORE so you can BE MORE!   WORKING HARDER and WORKING SMARTER so you can RESPOND BETTER.

Problems can only disturb you when you’re not good enough to handle them.  

When YOU improve, your LIFE improves.  When YOU improve, your response to EVERY CHALLENGE life throws at you is STRONGER… and so it makes sense that your LIFE will be STRONGER!
