Stop with the facade (video)

+ Video transcript

Question sent to me last week: There are so many people killing it right now and I am not. HELP!

Firstly delete the app if social media is causing an issue. Ditch a few other things if they are causing you an issue.

And stop with the fake stuff, talking it and consuming it.

There are so many things going on right now that probably aren't true, so don't buy into it.

If you’re not one of the people that's killing it right now, it’s ok.

Everyone has their ups and downs in life.

There would not be one high achiever out there that hasn’t failed in their life at some point.

But you know what they did? They took control and focused on what they could impact on.

It's ok where you are right now.

Life is not about trying to impress the guy next door? The person walking past you down the street.

Never get your validation and self worth anywhere else other than you.

Let me say that again, never get your self worth from any other place other than you.

You don’t have to be smashing it right now. You don’t have to be perfect right now. But you should be aiming at something right now.

That agitation in your body, is you wanting to move forward, so you should make that start immediately but allow the time to grow and the space to fail.

You don’t have to be a finished product but you need to be aware of the rough bits.

Life is about getting hyped in your own mind with the power of you and what you can achieve with the resourcefulness you have inside you.

So you don’t get caught up looking in the other lane, focus on what matters the most.

The question is not “What should I do to be like them?

The questions you should be asking yourself is:

  • What do you truly want:
  • What is the result or outcome you are looking for in your life story?

The Result Is what you want to achieve, relating to you.

And what is your purpose for doing this. The “why” you want to do it.

These are all powerful reasons that hold significant internal meaning to you.

But don’t just agree that you want to achieve that goal.

Agree to everything leading up to achievement.

The challenges, hurdles, failures, setbacks, tears and drama...all of it.

Remember focus on the power of you and what you can achieve with the resourcefulness you have inside of you.

Give yourself time to grow and expand.

There is no life hack and if there was it wouldn't be found on social media.

Till next time, be safe, be well, be you.

Reach out if I can help in any way.
