If you’re sitting around waiting to be motivated, you’ll never get anything done

Sure motivation might help you get things started,

But finishing things is a completely different game.

Motivation can spark you into action, but it’s not what sustains you

What sustains you is determined by your strength of will.

Having the conviction to see things through.

Yes, this will require exerted effort, 

It may even get a little painful at times

But that’s OK

Because nothing of value ever comes easy.

And there is no growth without discomfort. 

The best way to get ahead is to get started.

And this is best accomplished through your sheer strength of will .

We’ve become so accustomed to easy

And so addicted to comfort, 

That we don’t know what to do when things become uncomfortable.

Don’t look back in anger, maintain the hope And be determined to do things a little different.

  • Communication is not a one way street
    Communication is not a one way street. It’s not about talking, it’s about listening. It’s not about reacting, it’s about responding. It’s not about knowing, It’s about understanding. It’s not about judgement or pretense It’s about connection.
  • Leaving it all behind
    Some things are certainly worth holding onto -  Others we just hold onto because we are too afraid to say goodbye.  Not because we can’t But because doing so means facing our own mortality
  • Ahead of the game
    It’s easy to play life on the back foot Always playing defence. Always waiting, always passive, always reactive.
