If I could tell my 22-year-old self one thing about sales: Stop trying to convince people who can't afford it. A broke person who says yes is worse than a rich person who says no.

If you want to get money, go where the money is.

[Greg O'Gallagher @gregogallagher]

When something truly goes wrong. And you are pissed off and let down

Allow yourself to feel it

But eventually you want to get excited

The universe has something better for you

But only if you drop resistance and fully accept this moment fully

U can be a hater or you can build a great life but you can’t do both

[Greg O'Gallagher @gregogallagher]

The more you hate your current situation, the more stuck you become in it.

Most people think they have to get fucking pissed off at their life to change it.
That anger is fuel.
That resentment is motivation.
That hatred is what finally gives them the push.

It isn’t.

That energy is the weakest energy there is.
It’s frantic.
It’s fragile.
It’s a house of cards.

You’re building your future on stress.

Every time you hate where you are, you’re saying:
“This moment is wrong. I don’t want this.”

And since the present moment is inseparable from life itself, you’re literally in resistance with life.

What do you think you’re going to experience more of?

More resistance.

I learned this the hard way.

When I was 19, I desperately wanted to be lean.
Single-digit body fat. Around 8%.

I wasn’t out of shape. I was already lean — maybe 13–14%.
But in my mind, life didn’t start until I was leaner.

Happiness was on the other side.
Confidence was on the other side.
Being “enough” was on the other side.

There were about 12 pounds of fat between me and life being good.

And that belief created immense pressure.

Every day felt like something to escape.
The present moment was nothing but a tunnel I wanted to sprint through.

So what did I do?

I went extreme.

Ultra-low calories.
Cut carbs.
Tons of cardio.
Going to bed ravenous.

I wasn’t trying to live I was trying to skip.

And sure, I’d make progress.
Then I’d snap.

I’d binge 6,000… 7,000… 8,000 calories.
Hate myself.
Clamp down again.
Break again.

I repeated that cycle for years.

And the whole time, I thought:
•“Maybe this just isn’t possible.”
•“Or maybe I’m just weak.”
•“Why don’t I have discipline?”
•“What’s wrong with me?”

It was brutal.

Then something clicked.

I was listening to The Power of Now, and there was a line that hit me like a brick:

If the present moment becomes nothing but a means to an end,
the now is lost.

And I realized something uncomfortable:

I didn’t want the present moment at all.
I only wanted the future.

Which means… I was rejecting life itself.

No wonder I was stressed.
No wonder my actions were sloppy.
No wonder I kept snapping back.

I was arguing with reality every single day.

That’s when everything changed.

I stood in front of the mirror and thought:

“I don’t like this.
This isn’t where I want to be.”

But instead of fighting it, I said:

“I accept this.”

Fully.
No drama.
No self-hate.

“I accept where I am.
And yes — let’s improve.”

The weight lifted immediately.

From that moment, my decisions changed.

I stopped trying to lose three pounds a week.
I stopped going to bed starving.
I stopped trying to win now.

I said:
“Let’s just get a little better each week.
Let’s enjoy this.
Let’s do this intelligently.”

And without the elastic band snapping me back…
the transformation finally happened.

This is the part most people miss:

Acceptance does not kill ambition.
It removes desperation.

The people who make massive progress don’t hate where they are.
They accept it, set an intention, and move forward with presence.

They aren’t trying to fast-forward life.
They’re engaged in it.

They enjoy solving problems.
They love the craft.
They love the process.

Watch a great movie — you don’t want to skip to the end.
You want the struggle.
The setbacks.
The growth.

So why in life do we try to skip the middle?

Hating your situation creates stress.
Stress removes presence.
Without presence, action becomes diluted.

That’s the paradox.

You don’t move forward by rejecting where you are. You move forward when you stop resisting it.

Failure, if you think about it,

Is just an idea.
