Description

One of the biggest reasons I struggled for years in life and in entrepreneurship is because I didn't have any long goals. Zig Ziglar talked about this a ton. And he said, and I'm paraphrasing here. He said, I've never met somebody depressed or with anxiety that had a long-term clear goal. I've only met people that were depressed or with anxiety because they weren't clear on where they wanted to go.And when I think about my past, my journey, my life, and every moment where there was a struggle where there was resistance, where there was depression or anxiety was due to my disconnection from a goal and measuring the moment I was measuring the moment and I struggled. There's still a lot of work that I practice on myself with consistency of putting in the work of releasing codependent tendencies, releasing my insecurity is my constant need for validation. And here's, what's beautiful about this is now what I've realized is that the moment I get clear on my sovereignty on my world of my vision on where I want to go. And I'm clear on why I want to do it. That little boy feels loved because I'm loving myself. And I've also realized that every moment that I've had a struggle or I've projected, or I make condescending comments, or I use sarcasm as a way to not authentically share my feelings is because I'm disconnected from my, why. I talk about wise all the time, because I want to surround myself with it because I feel like I still have a lot of practice to embody it. And there's times that I feel like a walking in congruency because I do struggle with daily practices. Sometimes I do struggle with getting really deep into my why.So what I've noticed is that the most success in business, the most success in my relationships, the most success in my mindset has come from when I'm willingly plugged into my why. And would I willingly plug into my why? I feel safe knowing that I'm doing the work that I want to be doing and I'm building what I want to be building. And only I am responsible for doing that. And it's the moment I get disconnected from that. Why in business, in life, in relationships and friendships, that little boy comes out unhealed and wounded screaming for attention. And I'm actually creating the opposite vision of what I want by not being connected with my why.And so why or why so important for me, they're important because it's the unlimited fuel source, right? Like we think about entrepreneurship. We think about business, we're doing things that. Haven't been done before. We're creating paths that haven't been paved before. We're clearing a road that's nobody's ever cleared before we're driving through a mountain that everybody was said was impossible.We're, we're launching iPhones, we're going to the moon, and we’re doing these things. And in those things are guaranteed resistance. There's guaranteed roadblocks. There's guaranteed flat tires. Like it's not Oh, I hope it doesn't happen. It's a matter of when not if right. And I have noticed that every time I've been hit with resistance or a roadblock, or even this year of almost losing it all during the world, or last year during the craziness of the world, the moment I plug into my, why I look at it as like a chapter in the book or just a fumble in the game and I can play another play. And the moment I can plug into, I said, I wanted to do this for this reason is this a part of the game to achieve this vision and the symphony game and the answer's? Yes that always grounds me and brings me back to center. It’s like the keel. If you have a sailboat, there's a really deep keel that keeps the boat from flipping over. It goes deep in the water and the bigger the boat, the bigger the keel, and it holds it constant its ability to like use wind as a tool and a propellant instead of wind as the thing that flips the boat over. Is the keel it's that run of its deep, deep down. That's holding it there and it's turning resistance into a tool.And in my opinion, wise, turn resistance i
