You are your own worst enemy. You waste precious time dreaming of the future instead of engaging in the present. Since nothing seems urgent to you, you are only half involved in what you do. The only way to change is through action and outside pressure.
i am naturally a loner, even towards my own family, i don't like to be seen or be in peoples faces, I could be very clingy and possessive when i'm in love but the way I absent myself from people can be so unreal!
My favorite quote from Atomic Habits by James Clear:
"It doesn't make sense to continue wanting something if you're not willing to do what it takes to get it.
If you don't want to live the lifestyle, then release yourself from the desire.
To crave the result but not the process is to guarantee disappointment."
Life pro tip. Not enough people talk about this. The secret to having a "fulfilling" life is doing new things. Radically doing new things. Consistently. Every day. New activities, people, goals, even something as simple as trying new foods. Life feels longer when you're a kid because every day is packed with almost infinite amount of new learning. As you get older, you've already acclimated to your environment, the new inputs stop, so your perception of time speeds up drastically. You fall into routine, which is a time accelerant. If you want to feel like you have a long infinite lifespan, like you did as a child, you MUST be having new experiences, which slows time down.
i don’t think people understand how hard it is when your toxic trait is self isolation + avoidance, everybody instantly think you’re ignoring them but you’re just struggling to find peace
In this life, just win.
Nobody really cares about the process of winning until you’ve won.
They will always rewrite history in favour of the winner. That’s just life.
When I first made my first million, I didn’t even realize how fast it disappeared, I spent it carelessly. But when I reached that milestone again, I made something tangible out of it.
What I noticed is that before, I didn’t involve God; I relied entirely on my own strength, forgetting that I couldn’t do it alone.
Now, before taking any step, I involve God, listen to His guidance, and obey it. Ever since I started doing this, my life has turned around remarkably and everything flows smoothly.
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but GET UP. Ask God to breathe His spirit back into you. You’ve been lying dormant for far too long. Ask Him to restore your creativity, your purpose, your joy, your love, your health, and your sound mind. You’ve slept long enough in depression, anxiety, overthinking, bitterness, loneliness, grief, brokenness, financial stress, abandonment wounds, relationship trauma, and destructive habits. Today is the last day. GET UP! Get up for your future self. Get up for your kids. Get up for the dreams God placed inside you. Get up and take your life back.
