Be responsible for your life.
Everyone has their own path to walk in this life that we lead. Each with our own visions, thoughts and experiences. We were all born at a certain time and place for a certain reason whether we know it or not. We are programmed with a mission that must be carried out to fulfill our destinies. Each of us with something a little different to offer. The more in tune we can get with nature and our environments, the better we understand ourselves and our own individual purpose here in this world.
Focus on finding the right patterns and habits that will get you where you need to go. Each situation calls for a different combination. It won’t always be straightforward but it’s important to keep pushing through hurdles. Start getting results somewhere and branching out to other areas that you think will improve your overall skillset. Creating systems and refining them over time can help us reach unthinkable heights. We learn what to add and subtract by taking action and trusting our instincts on a daily basis.
Always take accountability and avoid blaming your current situation on forces outside of yourself. Unless you’re being held captive somewhere against your will or extremely sick, it’s possible to avoid things that bring you down while simultaneously adding things that will prop you up. Nobody has all the answers. When we see mastery and genius first hand, we forget the countless hours and processes behind the scenes that went into building incredible innovations that shaped humanity in some cases. No matter where you might find yourself now, there is always another step forward to take in the right direction. Make the choices needed in every moment and let God take care of the rest.
Act with intention.
Most people can barely even tell you why they do the things that they do. The majority of us have been conditioned to get a job to survive and use the rest of that time to forget that we have a job to go to the next day or week. By no fault of our own in most cases, a lot of people can’t fathom that with some tweaks to their habits and mindset they can start bringing their dreams to life.
Every action has consequences. Developing a deep understanding of what drives us forward can put many things into perspective. We realize that our time is limited on this journey and it’s better to live out our purpose than it is to be scattered and hopeless. No matter how daunting the mission may seem, it’s worth a shot because what’s the alternative? Sitting there on our deathbeds wondering what could have been? Any fear will be eclipsed by regret down the line if we don’t at least try to make things happen while we have the chance.
Learn why you do the things you do. Ingrained habits can be changed and transmuted to serve the right endeavors. You don’t have to be a slave to addictive tendencies. Unlock yourself from the mental prison and direct that energy into the right places. It’s surprising what we can accomplish by taking action with the bigger picture in mind.
Finish the mission at hand.
Our purpose is a lifelong venture with a variety of different missions to be completed along the way. Half the battle is knowing that things take time. Legacy and reputation are cemented by daily actions that create the runway for great accomplishments to take flight.
Reaching the ideal destination will take risk and effort but will grant more fulfillment than coasting and wondering ever could. Take action on the days you feel great. Take action on the days where it seems like the world is ending. Step into the arena and gain the experience that will push you forward to the next level.
Plant more seeds now. Harvest a bigger crop later.
Get the job done and move onto the next challenge.
Each day is a gift.
Make the most of this life.
