The Bitter gatekeep.
The Believer opens doors.

The Bitter stay outside.
The Believer starts the party.

Bitterness is lazy & weak.
Belief is fearless & defiant.

[Jonathan Bowles @JonathanBowles]

The Bitter die slow.
The Believer ascends daily.

The Bitter fade.
The Believer resonates.

The Bitter keep score.
The Believer changes the game.

The Bitter rot in real time.
The Believer lives forever.

The Bitter criticize.
The Believer creates.

As a kid-
it was eggs & a bunny

As a young gun-
it was a story & multiple services

As a man-
i celebrate all the times I’ve lost, failed & been disappointed yet chose to get back up

Resurrection is real

Cheers to those who aren’t afraid to die

Make a choice.
Take a step.
Take another one tomorrow.
Repeat.

Progress > Plans

Humility honors those who have helped you.

Confidence honors the gift they saw in you.

Praise both.

the standards you set
are a reflection of
the value you ascribe

applies across the board:
health, money, relationships, work, etc.

raise your standards -
your quality of life will follow

[Jonathan Bowles @JonathanBowles]

PRESSURE IS A PRIVILEGE

Better to be in a tough situation or facing an overwhelming opportunity than to be
comfortable
complacent
complaining that nothing is happening

BETTER TO
BUST ASS
THAN BE
BORED

You know what’s missing? PURPOSE.

The “what & why” connected to the real DESIRES that lie dormant in our gut while we’re just surviving.

Stop. Think about what you’re doing.

What do you really want? Why? Go get it.

“Get a dream. Hold on to it. Shoot for the sky!” - Dusty
