Observe your choices

Selective discomfort is the secret to everything you claim to want.

A willingness to step into the struggle that will benefit your future self is critical to your growth.

LIFE, for most of us, is an endless parade of adversity. If you don’t volunteer yourself to endure productive struggle, life will gladly thrust a plethora of its demands upon your time.

Existence requires this. We do not get to live without some form of returned contribution. If you are not pulling your weight, so to speak, you will be left behind. And the crawl back to average is an arduous task. The battle to achieve anything beyond mediocrity is an even more taxing challenge.

This is the time you have. It’s rare and fleeting. It’s yours to spend how you choose as your today is built upon the mountain of choices made by your yesteryears.

I encourage you to learn to observe your choices. Watch how each one impacts your mood, your relationships, your future. And when you encounter the inevitable, take full accountability of its existence so that you may empower your ability to mold this life into something you might at least be somewhat satisfied with.

I’m rooting for you. This day and all days.

Get after it.
