Creating control in your life: Self work – Why its a priority

You leave work, traffic is crazy. Kids are screaming. You get the door slammed on you at the gas station. You lose your job, the media on the news displays the storm of life and how much stress and lack of control it is causing…. what is next?

Perspective. These are the things you can focus on… The things out of your control…

OR

We can stick to the plan. check the boxes. daily consistency . Our sense of safety and security in our own world. our own bubble. our own day to day. what remains consistent?

self work

Personally for me: its my prepped meals…. my gym session… my morning routine of meditation, cold shower, food, brushing teeth, journaling… nighttime routine of slow breath work, gratitude and thankfulness… starting and ending the day with the light in our day. Consistency. that I do almost every day… despite the crazy world around me. the lack of control with some many variables… .focus… focus.. focus on the plan. the routines. the habits. the consistent things that life cant mess with.

my self work

all of a sudden, you will notice the stresses caused by all these random variables in life cant mess with your energy. They cant penetrate your armor. Know why? because you KNOW they will not mess with what YOU ARE CREATING AND KEEPING CONSISTENT.

Build your body. Build your mind. The small things matter.

Do you wanna be the american that wakes up, rushes out the door, shows up late to work, watches the news and remains pissed off.. next thing u know its 8PM and you feel like your whole day just FLEW BY?

Intention. Goals. Focus. What are you creating? what are you doing today, tomorrow and the day after that are building you up?

put things on the schedule. create a checklist. self motivate yourself and discipline yourself on the easy days as well as the hard ones.

STICK TO THE PLAN.

DEVELOP SELF RESPECT.

RESIST THE BS OUTSIDE OF THE PLAN.

become happier when you create these consistent variables. They’re things that you’re proud of.

They’re purposeful and create lessons and testimony. They foster and more positive mentality.

This isnt WOO WOO. This is proven. For years by myself.

Though the job changes. the relationship changes. the covid. the traumatic random BS in life.

Things haven’t changed for me. The upward curve remains.

WHY?

I keep showing up. I stick to the plan I create for myself 

Shit happens.

But the elite hop back on the plan as fast they can.

Thats the difference.

Its not about being on the plan every day… its about getting back on when challenging shit hits your life.

Dont be the 1 week gym attender, and give up.

stick to the plan.

Watch your entire life change. I’ve witnessed this in the most beautiful ways in several people’s lives.

Build yourself up so much that no one can mess with what you’ve built. create something to show for. it starts with u. do not lose yourself and what you habitually stick to, create, and build.
