There is a version of your life that will never exist because you would not endure the pain required to reach it.
Suffering is not the enemy of greatness. It is the doorway.
your life is the sum of every small choice you thought didn’t matter.
the second cookie. the skipped workout. the conversation you avoided. the ten more minutes scrolling.
none of them mattered in the moment, but you made them thousands of times. and thousands of tiny choices in one direction is a life. that’s all it is. you want a different life? make different tiny choices. not tomorrow. right now. this moment. that’s the only place change ever happens. not in the grand gesture, but in the mundane decision you’re about to make that you think doesn’t count.
it counts.
they all count.
@KlassJLife Team control still belongs to Lynx during an interrupted dribble and defender must be in legal guarding position . AT clearly has her shoulder past Phee shoulder on the reach and stepped in the clear path of offensive player. no conscious attempt to avoid contact, reckless.
If you woke up today and
> have a job
> can call both your parents
> not physically ill
> have somewhere to go back home to
it is a good day regardless of what else is going on in the world or what you might be stressed about
easy to take these things for granted
The older I get, the more I realize your energy creates your reality. Give your energy to stress, complaints, and negative people, they will grow. Give your energy to ambitions, gratitude, and positive people, they will grow. Your energy is your destiny. Choose wisely.
The older I get, the more I realize it’s never too late. You are in control. Of everything. You can wake up tomorrow and choose to see things differently. You can change. You can completely reinvent yourself. Every time you think it’s too late, it’s probably still early.
A major cheat code in life: Raising the energy of every room you walk in. Stand tall when others shrink. Optimistic when pessimism reigns. Present not distracted. Enthusiasm is rare. Contagious. And a choice. Be the one who elevates everyone else. Let your energy be magnetic.
