Focus on the green lines, not the black lines.
Consider this image from @waitbutwhy:
Black Lines = paths closed
Green Lines = paths open
Stop focusing on the black lines behind you. Start focusing on all of the green lines before you.
It’s a future with immense opportunity.
In the end, very few things in life are worth doing. Outside of prayer and contemplation, family, community and friends and meaningful work very little matters or satisfies.
Whatever competes with these is an illusion.
Know & apply these things to win!
-Move your body daily.
-Avoid negative people.
-Eat real, nutritious foods.
-See failure as the beginning.
-Start each day with gratitude.
-Your habits decide your future.
-Invest & save before you spend.
-Create more than you consume.
Mistakes in your early life, which you may not even recognize as mistakes in the moment, set you on a course that can lead to loss and failure.
Enough of this and, even if you course correct, later life takes on a bittersweetness you cannot avoid but must learn instead to savor.
You are an unshakable, unstoppable force capable of greatness. Anyone that tries to tell you otherwise does not belong in your orbit. Remember you are a 1 of 1. Lean into your power!
Many people don't understand that love is a form of power.
Power to overcome obstacles, power to bring good things into being, to bring light out of darkness.

And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back."
