67. Are You Who You Say You Are?


There is a character.

At this point, you either:

"Want to be them"

Or, Maybe

You Are Them...?

Which one is it?

How do you know?

Well... It's simple really

Do you do the things that they do, in your fantasy?

Maybe they,

Practice Yoga in the morning,

They eat clean and whole

They output

They read

They are confident and approach everything head on

What are the traits of your character?

List them out

Everything from,

Where they live.

How they operate.

What challenges they face.

How they interact with others.

Do you wholeheartedly embody them?

If you say YES I do,

do you walk through life confident knowing you are them?

Or

Do you walk through life slightly slouched?

Not as confident and perky as you desire?

If you've answered the latter

Ask yourself,

Do you truly embody your character?

What could you do better?

What are you being a little lazy around?

What old habits still remain unchecked?

Your new character has removed these things and replaced them with the new

This is how they became who they say they are

To be them, you must be them

I'll see you tomorrow

Jake.

I thought it was that "new idea", because I was burned out from the work I though it was spiritual because I lacked all meaning and purpose But you know what it is? This path runs out... What path? The path of the...

Purpose, Meaning, Mission This is where the value of life lies For a long time it may be non existent Or it might start in a strange way Make Money, Get a job, Do the to-do list, You know what I'm saying.... Fucking booooorinngggggggggg.... So how then, Does the mission appear? Slowly but surely, Strange pieces that shouldn't fit together, All of a sudden mesh Through the strange journey you develop your desires and boundaries and the odd contrast between those values and pains becomes the...

For the longest time, I've received emails from other creators like myself Usually business owners stuck in that hustle, grind, never stop attitude This served a large purpose for a long time But it always left me feeling sub-par Like I was forcing And to an extent, When you're new to something, forcing is what you have to work with. You must force yourself into new habits, (they don't come easy.) You must force yourself to take action (Especially on the days you don't want to the most....)...
