Every day the clock resets. Your wins don’t matter. Your failures don’t matter. Don’t stress on what was, fight for what could be.
Sean Higgins
The week was filled a whole lot of same mistakes. Mistakes that I didn’t wanted to repeat. But still I did, because why not, “I am already in a fucked up state. What’s this going to do?”, was my mindset and mentality.
And it sucked. It was not so good. But when I was in the state of bad behaviors, I also learned one thing, and that was and is:
“Whatever you believe in, whatever, the god, the universe, the fairies or the stars, they are only going to show you the path. The road that you are meant to take. And that’s it. From there, it is your responsibility. It is your “solitary” journey. No one is going to come help you.”
And this lesson is always going to stay with me. Because I have messed up bad, but I have always arrived to the position where the path was in front of me. And I was scared to get out there. Because it was me, my mindset and mentality, that was not right.
Now, after realizing your path what do you do?
Everyone has a different path. And so are their ways to achieve them. Different. But a few steps when someone is starting their own journey, are similar:
- Being courageous: being courageous has different learnings in different situations. For me being courageous at this moment is, taking my freaking responsibility. Taking responsibility for my dreams. And that sure is scary. But I remind myself, every time:
‘If other’s my age can do it, even younger than me, then why can’t I? If Ronaldo, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James can do it with hard work. Why can’t I?‘
And this is not me comparing to them, but this me learning about the work they put in when they just started. - My mindset and my mentality: putting it out. I have a mindset of a weak person. Someone who is true on his promises. And that I know. And this I will change, because I don’t wish to waste my talents just because I messed up in small time zone. Nah, hell no.
Now, mind me, I am not perfect. And I never will be. The things that I have talked about are the things that I must do. And the things that I did when I was stupid enough to let my emotions control me.
And I still am a work in progress. Yes, I fucked up many times. And I am the only one responsible for that. And so what, if you messed up. Realizing you did is a start. So, let’s focus on the journey and start working on ourselves, together.
If you look for perfection, you’ll never be content.
