Find Your Value!
It's that time to be honest with yourself again...:)
Ask yourself these questions:
Ask yourself these questions:
- Am I scared that things will not work out or do I have a fear of success, that things work out and I can't handle it?
- Do you spend a lot of time trying to get people to like you, do you know other people more than you know yourself? Do you want to be like someone else? Have you invested so much time in those people that you don't know who you are?
- Are you a copy cat of someone else? Do you idolize other people (There's a difference between idolizing and admiring someone. When you idolize someone you praise them and want to be like them where as when you admire them you respect something about them and like them for what they have achieved.)
I would really advise those of you who know others better than they know themselves to spend time alone, find out who you are, find out what you want, find out what makes you happy and most of all invest in yourself.
Separate yourself from other people, be different (You'll stand out better that way because trust me there are too many copy cats in this world... Sad truth). To avoid being a follower just Be the best You you can be. There'll never be a better you than yourself.
Find your value!

What on earth am I here for?
Your purpose in life is to find your purpose and give your whole heart and soul to it.
Gautama Buddha
What is your purpose? What is the meaning of your life? Why do most people never pursue their dreams? I have found that the most common answer of why people never pursue their dreams is because they believe they won't achieve them and that it is impossible for them to achieve them. It is normal for people to think this, which is why this is so baffling. You have already counted yourself out by telling yourself it's impossible, you haven't even tried to see if it can be done. How do you think others who are wealthy and successful have done it? If it was possible for them then surely it is possible for you too?! This mindset has to stop. You need to have a positive attitude towards your goals and dreams and an even stronger attitude on pursuing and achieving them.
Here are a few things I want you to know:
- You need to work on yourself and work on your dreams. You need to find your purpose, set goals, work towards them and never give up till you've reached your set goals. Dreams require action so get up and go chase your dreams, sitting around and wasting time ain't gonna get you those dreams darling.
- Fear kills dreams. It can hold you back from what you're suppose to be doing. F.E.A.R!!! Such a short word yet has such a powerful hold on many people. Sad right?! You need to go beyond that fear. Fear keeps you at the same place, it does nothing for you and will not get you your dreams, ignore the fear and remember why you chasing your dreams.
- You need to be successful, yourself, You, nobody else. You need to make a commitment to yourself! This is very important. Don't try and be successful for anybody else but yourself. You can lie to everybody else but you cannot lie to yourself, therefore make a commitment to yourself. Push yourself. You need to get to a point where you are your own critic (Not in a negative way but in an honest way), You need to want to be successful and not need anyone else to tell you that. You need to chase your own dreams and not rely on other people.
- Do you want success as much as you want to party or more? Do you want success as much as you want to sleep? You have to ask yourself these questions because if you don't then you don't want success bad enough. If you're willing to sacrifice then you're on the right path of success. Now I won't lie to you guys, I am not perfect either and I still struggle with sacrificing sleep (I Love My Sleep!!!) and I'm not saying it's easy either, I find it challenging but I do my best. If you can honestly say that you do your best and that although you're struggling you're giving your all then that's good enough. Don't give up, your sacrifice will eventually become easier just keep at it.
- Get yourself together and start saying I can and I will and it'll happen. Figure out what you need to do to make it happen! Draw up a strategy or different ideas on how to go about achieving your dreams,when you're done...do it!
- You can do it, other people have why can't you? What's stopping you? Keep on telling yourself that! It CAN'T be impossible if others before you have done it.
- Stop making excuses. Excuses are just lies you keep telling yourself. Instead of making excuses, start making an effort. If you going through a tough time instead of quitting and making excuses, rather think of solutions or other ways to overcome your obstacle. It is a choice. Everything is a choice. Option 1: Make an excuse/Give up Option 2: Think of a solution on how to overcome your hurdle and press on.
What on earth are you here for? Are you going to find your purpose and then live it or are you going to waste it?
Tell me, how bad do you want it??

What is your anesthetic to life?
What is your anesthetic to Pain? By this I mean, what do you do to deal with pain. How do you respond to pain? We often hear of people dealing with pain in ways such as: Drinking the pain away, Doing Drugs, Self mutilation etc. Pain is not what I want to deal with, Life is... Therefore I ask you, what is your anesthetic to life?
What do you do to deal with life - How do you deal with life? How do you deal with your goals and dreams? Do you go with the flow and let them linger as just dreams or do you strive to make them a reality. Do you strive to better your life or are you just living (more like surviving). What is your anesthetic to life? I know of people who choose to not work hard and choose to have things given to them on a silver platter, that is how they choose to live life, that is their anesthetic to life. Those exact people are the ones who most of the time choose to deal with life by partying, drinking and smoking their life away. Now don't get me wrong I'm not saying partying, drinking (in moderation) and smoking (This for me is bad - Biased of me I know but oh well ;)) is bad, but if you are using those things to deal with your life then it is. That becomes your anesthetic to life, it becomes what makes you cope with life. You use all that to deal with life.
Now some of you would ask, "But how's that a bad thing?" It is bad because those are temporary aids. You are using those things to help you through life, stress, pressure, problems etc... They become your 'go to' place every time you may be faced with a challenge. I think the only way to deal with life is to live it. In order to deal with it you need to get to the root problem and work through it and tackle obstacle by obstacle until you reach your goal. I want to ask those people who have these temporary aids, "When you are drinking is the pain worse than the hangover and bodily harm you doing to yourself?" "Is the smoking worth the cancer and clogged up lungs and 'never' ending stench?" "When you are out there partying it up ('Turning Up') and 'celebrating', what exactly is it that you are 'celebrating'? Because as long as you haven't reached your goals and dreams and fulfilled your purpose you have no business being out 'celebrating'."
Hard to hear but needed to hear. This especially goes out to the young people.... As long as you continue having unhealthy temporary aids to deal with short-comings instead of living life trying to make the best of it and using short cuts, you will never be successful and you will never conquer life, you will never live the life you were born and created to live. You will never be satisfied and never be independent of your temporary anesthetics. Instead of trying to temporarily survive life or numb your pain or struggles or obstacles, try facing them head on, let that make you stronger, independent and immune instead of numb to it all.
Let your pain be your motivation to push through instead of your excuse to quit.
So I ask you... What is your anesthetic to Life?

Why Me? ... Why Not Me? Guest Blogger: Mathew Sissing
One of the most difficult questions the average human being can ask is ... "Why me?". "Why can't I have, look or do that?".
Well the question you should be asking is, "Why not me?".
Why not you?
Why do all the people YOU think and feel don't deserve the luxury living, have it all, while you are struggling to try get the slightest taste of the "Good Life"? Let me tell you an important point on this, the perception of it is amazing, the reality of it is ordinary. There will always be better, prettier, lovelier and more valuable things than what is currently available. One day there is an iPhone 10 that the world goes berserk over, a few months later the iPhone 11 will come out and, all hope and admiration for the iPhone 10 is lost. Isn't life the same way? Won't the admiration for things die out as more advanced and wowing products are being exhibited from day to day?
Well lets start from the beginning ... The first mistake we make is comparison.
Comparing your life to another person's life is the first mistake you can make in running your own life race.
In simpler terms ...
We as the ignorant and infant human being that we are at this particular phase in our race we take the first glance at something and make a quarter century conclusion out of it. We see someone driving in a car we desire, with a person we desire to look like with the materials we desire to have and immediately we are envious, jealous and sub-consciously we wish them failure. But my question is, do you know what their forefathers did that resulted in their family "eating" off the labor they did years prior to your ignorant conclusion? Do we know what the family has done to have that family member live such a lavish life?
How is it that we quick to justify someones success by merely referring to inheritance or family wealth while a "Low Down Dirty Shame" person achieved the same feature within their own power? Our goals and desires are to have our family have enough wealth for 5 generations but we fail to fathom that one day, the very same ignorant and envious person you were, is going to have that same mindset towards your family because you worked your ass off to have your family prosper? This is a cycle and mindset we have to cut.
I once met a young man who told me that he sold oranges to fund his matric dance. I was amazed by his determination and drive to have something regardless the look it gave him to the public (social circle). Would I do that to get something I really desire? Would I go to such lengths to fund a desire that would disappear within hours, though the memory is long lived? No I wouldn't (honestly speaking), so what gives me the right to later look at his success (wishing him well for the future) and say, "his family gave it to him".
We as human beings need to stop this cycle. There are hard working and honest people out there that are working hard to achieve the impossible. We need to support them and not break them down. The more I encourage and support them, my motivation and ambition is going to new levels.
I firmly believe that in order to have a strong back bone, I should never be crippled from the bottom upwards. In other words, in order for me to be highly successful, the people that play a pivotal role in my journey, need to give me constructive criticism and build me, not justify my laziness and weakness. My girlfriend (future wife) once told me I was acting like a coward because I couldn't face reality and that I was better than that, I was full of potential. As my lady, she did the tough love pose and went full out and head on. At the time I wanted to body slam her onto the floor and do an Eddie Guerrero splash (Just a Joke, wouldn't do that to her) but, I realized that it was out of love. I admire her for that.
Success is an aroma worn on the sweat of hard working individuals. It is available in 365ml of bottled up dosages. 1ml per day. This line of fragrance is called PAM - Perservance, Ambition and Motivation.
Stay tuned for part two of "Why Me? ... Why not me?"

Remember:
On your road to success you will need to evaluate what's important and what's not. Once you've established what is important in your life, you will need to keep a balance and make time for the things and people who matter in your life.
Spend more time with the people you love, life is too short, don't ever let your hunger for success make you miss precious moments with your loved ones. Make time with them, spend time with them. They will be the constant throughout your journey.
Peace. Love. Happiness. Success.
