Where Your Power Truly Lies
What about your life makes it harder than the person next 2 you? 🤔
The alcoholic Father...
The drug addicted Mother...
The constant financial struggle...
The adoption into an abusive home...
Sadly, there are countless other answers you could give...😔
We are taught that no sin is worse than any other, & we should adapt this Biblical perspective 2 life situations 2 keep ourselves humble & victory minded 🏆
Don't worry about who had it worse...
Don't worry about who has had 2 overcome more...
Only worry about being a Victor & not a Victim 👏😤
You see, the power 2 create your outcome is in your mind 🧠
Once you recognize there is always someone that had it worse than you & accomplished more within the same circumstances, you have 2 paths 2 choose from 🙏
1. I shouldn't even try...they had it harder & yet still did better than me. I'm so behind that I'll never catch up...I quit...
2. Their success speaks volumes over what is possible for me!! I may be behind them, but it's only about who I am today vs who I become tomorrow 🙌 I got this!!
I would implore you 2 read option number 2 again...then choose 🙏
YOU control your overall outcome 💯
Not your Mom.
Not your Dad.
Not your Boss.
Not your Environment.
You can choose 2 believe in failure or you can choose 2 believe in success, either way, the beliefs you choose 2 feed will ultimately shape your future...
Never forget this 🙏

Use Their Criticisms as Motivation
There will always be someone with an opinion completely opposite of yours 💯
Sometimes it's absolutely crazy from our perspective, but those opinions still exist 🤷♂️
The reason they actually exist is because of that very perspective 🤔
Think of any optical illusion you've seen where 2 people will see something completely different 👀
Now, considering their perspective is different from yours, considering they see something completely different, & considering they are in a completely different position than you are...
Why does their opinion even matter 2 you? 🤔
You may question how they even have the audacity 2 speak their mind 2 you, but let me ask you this...
How do you even have the immaturity that allows them control over your feelings? 🤔
"I don't care what they said, I made up my mind & I know I'm right." 💯
Fine. You can still take the same actions without giving them the power over you having a good day or not 🙏
And can I take it one step further? 😏
How good is it going 2 feel when you succeed, just like you said you would, in spite of their lack of belief? 🤔
Don't allow your main motivations 2 come from others, but there's nothing wrong with adding them in 😉
Use all of the:
"You can't..."
"You won't..."
"You'll never..."
As fuel 2 your fire 🔥
The passion that drives you just got an extra boost if you choose 2 use it right 👏
Prove them wrong 😤
And more importantly,
Prove YOU right 😉

Use Everything at Your Disposal
Have you ever gone ALL IN on YOU? 🤔
Fully committed 2 a goal...
Fully dedicated 2 a concept...
Fully devoted 2 your Faith...
Not seeking "perfection", but seeking complete surrender 2 what you are chasing 🙏
2 become the best leader possible
2 become the best spouse possible
2 become the best parent possible
2 become the best athlete possible
2 become the best example possible
Does reading this so far cause fear or excitement in you? 🤔
Fear that you could never live up 2 what you desire?
Or...
Excitement that you can become something greater than you ever thought possible?
It does not matter who you have been & it does not matter who you are currently 💯
It only matters who you are BECOMING through daily actions 🙏
Every choice you make is an investment in your future & everyone in it 👏
Every decision you make is a vote for the character you wish 2 develop 👏
Every habit practiced is either bringing you closer or further from your dream self 👏
Have you actually been thinking before you act? 🤔
Is your next action going 2 serve the life you are praying for? 🙏
What about just the last month...
What if you acted out this past month every month for the rest of your life? Where would you be at the end?
If you don't like the answer, then today is the day you take action 👏
Today is the day where we commit 2 a REAL change 👏
Repentance means changing direction from the wrong path 2 following the righteous one 🙌
Sit down & evaluate every "failure" you've experienced in the past month & turn the lessons into blessings 🙏
Learn from it. Adapt. Overcome. Rewrite your future history with every step you take moving forward 📝
No one is coming 2 save you & nothing changes if nothing changes 💯
I need you 2 understand that the world around you is waiting & relying on your personal growth...
You have no idea who is counting on you becoming who you are meant 2 become.
You will IMPACT countless lives with the remaining days in YOUR life 🙏
Make sure the impact made is the one you wish 2 be remembered for...serve those around you 👏
It's not about who you are now, it's about who you will be when you meet those that need you most 🤝
Take the proper actions today 2 move towards your best self & #raisethestandard 👏
Now get out there & #makeyourselfproud 🙌

Is it a Lack or an Abundance?
I want you 2 think back on your life & find the constant...
Something that has always been there through the bad & the good...
And this something in itself may be something bad or good...
A lack or an abundance of belief...
A lack or an abundance of confidence...
A lack or an abundance of victimhood...
Has this thing spoke life into you or has it taken it from you? 🤔
What I want you 2 realize is that you can choose...💡
It's speaking life into you? Listen more intentionally & make sure there is action taken in response 🙏
It's taking life from you? Leave it behind. You have no room, nor need, for anything in your life that keeps you from chasing your potential 💯
We more often than not struggle with the negative voices & stories...they keep us a victim & remove the God Given power we have 2 change our own lives 🙏
"I can't change"
"I'm just like my parents"
"I always fail"
"I always quit"
"This always happens"
You have the CHOICE 2 keep speaking these lies over yourself, or 2 end it, & rewrite the story you deserve most 🙏
That's what I want for you...2 control your outcome over circumstance 👏
2 see the possibility in front of you if you would just get out of your own way & eliminate the limiting beliefs 🙏
It all starts with awareness...
It all starts with making a choice...
It all starts with your next action...

Positive & Negative Mental States
Where do you spend most of YOUR time? 🤔
Excited about the greatness ahead?
Dreading the anxiety of tomorrow?
Understand you get 2 CHOOSE where you spend your time 😉
The easiest way 2 create the change in your life is by going from anxiety 2 excitement 🙌
Same emotional state, 2 different perspectives of reality 👌
This is summed up in one concept...
"What If?" vs "Even If"
"But what if something bad happens tomorrow?" 😱
Yeah...so what? 🤔
What happened last time something bad happened 2 you? 👀
Did you quit?
Did you die?
Was it really the end of the world?
Nah 🙄 You were just fine once the initial time passed 💯
So, if we can realize we survived every other time something "bad" happened, why can't we realize that we will be just fine despite what events will occur? 🤔
When you move into a situation with an "Even If" attitude, you realize nothing is an obligation, but instead an opportunity 🙏
You never "HAVE TO", but rather you always "GET TO".
You GET TO work through whatever is ahead of you, EVEN IF it feels horrible in the moment 👏
And tell me this...do you want 2 waste time? Do you want to experience more pain than necessary? Do you want 2 be humbled & embarrassed more than is required for your growth? 🤔
No, nope, & absolutely not 💯
Move forward each & every day committed 2 these truths:
Even if the worst case scenario occurs, I will persist & overcome.
Even if I'm in a place I don't want 2 be, I will learn the lesson 2 never be in this position again.
Even if I wasted time, I'm going to waste less in the future by using this mistake as an investment.
This life is not meant 2 control you...it is meant 2 serve you & your purpose.
The sooner you accept & recognize this, the faster & further you will progress 💯
Make sure you spend your time in a positive mental state & #raisethestandard 👏

Does Their Opinion Really Matter?
How much happiness are you missing out on because you are trying 2 please someone that didn't even notice you when you walked by? 🤔
How much joy is withheld out of an irrational fear of judgement? 🤔
Imagine walking, talking, dancing, & singing, not worrying if someone was going to have an opinion about you 😌
How much more would you dance & sing? 😏
Truth be told, unless you ask for an opinion, most people won't share theirs with you if it's against you; too many people are afraid of confrontation, & even what YOU might say back in judgement of them 😅
But even if they did say something...
Consider who they are, & I am willing 2 bet you find they have nothing you desire, & aren't living the life you want 2 live 💯
Even if they are good looking, rich, influential...they're clearly not happy if they're feeling the need 2 poke & prod at you 😒
This is something 2 always consider 🙏
If someone is making fun of you,
If someone is critiquing you,
If someone is judging you,
If someone is trying 2 change your mind with their perspective...
What grounds are they even speaking from? 🤔
Are they living a life you would want 2 live?
Are they where you want 2 be mentally, physically, emotionally, &/or spiritually?
If they have not done what you want 2 do, their opinion is irrelevant 👏
So now take that & apply it 2 the beginning...
The one that you're afraid of judging you, do they live the life you want, or are you holding back who you are 2 appease someone that goes 2 sleep every night disappointed in themselves...?
Just something 2 think about...🤔

Go Fast Alone, Go Far Together
You will never create a larger influence by yourself than with people 💯
The RIGHT People 👏
When you gather together with a like minded community, goal oriented towards a positive influence, nothing can slow down the impact that lies ahead 😉
You keep each other accountable 👏
You call & lift each other higher 👏
Problem solving just becomes regular conversation because you are all moving humbly in the same direction 🙌
That being said, humility & accountability are absolutely paramount 💯
When one of the group thinks they are the most important, everything can crumble.
Calling this out immediately as a group is one area where accountability is key 🔑
Keeping each other devoted 👏
Keeping each other focused & driven 😤
Keeping each other humble, still calling out all the greatness inside of others 🙏
It's a fine line, when treaded carefully, that can impact the world & help create everything the group is focused on 🙌
Whoever is beside you;
Call them higher
Love on them
Cherish them
Keep them humble
Be the friend they have always needed & you will be amazed what the personal returns will be 💯
I'm calling you all 2 go FAR together & #raisethestandard 👏
Now get out there & #makeyourselfproud 🙌
