Don’t be so focused on yourself and what you got going on that you can’t bring yourself to apologize to someone else when you’re in the wrong. You can’t let your ego hold you back from doing the things that are going to move yourself and your life better. You can’t let your pride and your unwillingness to acquiesce to other people stop you from becoming the best version of yourself.

Before you let someone else’s opinion of you affect you, first ask yourself, What are this person’s credentials? Why should you look to them for an opinion? What makes their thoughts valid when it comes to the subject of you? Did you even ask them for an opinion in the first place?? Did you give them permission to even think about you? Are they living a life you would want to live? Are they doing the things that you want to do? Do you even want anything that they have? What’s their validity??

Elevate the way that you look at yourself. If you’re going to pedestalize anybody, you need to pedestalize yourself. If in your mind someone is capable of doing anything, that capable person needs to be you. Don’t give that honor to anyone else, that honor belongs to you. If you’re going to hype anyone, hype yourself. If you’re going to be a major fan of anybody, be a major fan of yourself. If you see anybody as a king, it needs to be you with the crown.

There’s always more. There’s always going to be more. Because you’re always going to be capable of more. You can’t get caught up in your past accolades, reminiscing on what you’ve done in the past, bigging yourself up for tho my s you did a decade ago. That’s not what it’s about. It’s about getting more, chasing more. You can be grateful for what you have and you can even be proud of what you have already accomplished, but your mind’s eye needs to be focused on getting to that next level.

You can’t allow for others to be placed above you in your own head. You need to be the head of the world in your own mind. You can’t admire others, you can find inspiration from the actions of other people, but you cannot allow for yourself to think other people are better than you. You can’t let yourself think that other people are capable of achieving more than you’re capable of achieving. They may have different talents and skills than you have, but you can’t allow yourself to think they actually have more capacity than you.

If you know what needs to be done then go do it. There’s no need for any more analysis. There’s no need for you to gather some more data, get some more information, look for more education. If you know you need to get some money then you need to get up and go out and grind. You don’t have time to make and remake a plan over and over again. It’s not gonna get you anywhere. Come up with a plan that you think is solid and then implement it immediately. Don’t change up on your plan just because it got a little difficult, or because you didn’t see the results you wanted right after you made your plan.

You have to have belief in yourself. You have to have an unbelievable amount of belief in yourself. You need to be so confident in what you’re doing, in what you got going on in life, that it is next to impossible for anyone else to bring you down. The negative opinions of others, any setbacks that you face, any conflict that arises, is immediately eliminated because your belief in what you are doing is so strong. You have to believe in yourself to that extreme level.

Activity alleviates anxiety. If you want to stop worrying, if you want to get out of your head, you need to get a good. You have to start doing things. When you’re sedentary, when you’re bored, when yo ur enjoy being challenged, your mind is allowed to wander and come up with a litany of scenarios that woodsy cross it at all if instead of spending your time thinking you were spending it putting in some work.

Who knows what the future is going to hold? You’ve got to get your money NOW. You got to make your plays now, build your skills now, get your money up now, so that by the time the future comes around you’re more than prepared for it.

We can’t just wake up and lay in the bed all day. We can’t wake up in a bad mood and just sit there. We can’t get into a funk and simply allow ourselves to just wallow in it. We can’t play around with life. We can’t sit around feeling sorry for ourselves because things didn’t work out the way we wanted them to, or because we didn’t get what we thought we would get. Tough luck. Get up off your ass and get back to work. When you’re down it is NOT the time to stop fighting. That is NOT the time to relax. That’s the time to take a quick step back so that you can see the bigger picture, then immediately start putting in max work, start putting in max effort. That’s the time for you to elevate your grind, for you to push your work rate to its limits.
