unlearn shame. all forms of shame: unemployment, illness, vulnerability, longing, desire, errors, failures. you do not need to feel ashamed of what you are experiencing or living. freedom and shame cannot coexist.
the size of your life is up to you. that thought should terrify you and thrill you in the same breath. everything you are not is a choice. every limit is self imposed. every ounce of potential you haven’t touched is sitting there waiting for a version of you willing to reach for it. you can have anything you are willing to work for. so go work. go take it. stop admiring the life from a distance and go grab it.
mistakes you must avoid when god starts blessing you, as a man;
1. helping too quickly
2. talking too much about your blessings
3. getting too comfortable
turns out, reading a lot, exercising, loving people without expecting anything back, protecting your alone time, focusing only on improving yourself, and sometimes staying out late with friends who make you laugh until it hurts is a pretty good way to live.
i’m convinced that creativity is the elixir of life. not ambition. not productivity. but the simple act of making. the devotion to beauty. the refusal to go numb.
stop worrying about how it will happen. just know that it will. the right doors will open, the right people will enter, and the right opportunities will find you. stay patient, and let the magic unfold in divine timing.
