Write your Story - What’s Your Why?

Words may inspire but only action creates change. - Simon Sinek

This week’s post is entirely dedicated to you and your actions, not my words. 

Best piece of advice, help, guidance, and support I can give is to leave this blog post for you to write. 

Not so simple question: What’s Your ‘Why’?

Why do you do the things you do? Why do you get out of bed in the morning? Why do you exercise or believe you should stay fit? Why do you eat vegetables or healthy food over cookies and chips? This is a thought-provoking question and one that will take some deep, inner soul-searching.

Mine is here, in a recent post of mine. 

So what’s yours?
What’s your ‘Why’?

Write it, share it privately, share it publicly, share it out loud, share it with a friend. Simply put it down and go from there. I’d love to hear it and help support your ‘Why’.

We are nothing without it and defining it will define much of your future accomplishments that are yet to be achieved.

So, what’s you why?

Problems - Leading to Greatness

Let's talk Problems and Living your Best Life, since they both go hand in hand. It's been over a month since my last post. Many reasons around this, primarily I needed to stop, think, dive deep into this, and truly give myself the time to understand my own self and better comprehend the world around me. Attempting to hone in on where resilience, grit, and achieving great things comes from. Where it really comes from; why some people apparently strive more than others and why some people seem to struggle more than others.  Let's start with how we generally live as humans. We hear lots about how to show empathy towards others, the value of this as humans, and what it does to the world around us. Humans are inately horrible at this; constantly discrediting others problems, comparing others problems, generalizing how people feel, or attempting to rationalize problems from their point of view. This is where a lot of mental health stigmas and biases come from. Showing em...

Darkness - Step out of the Light

Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body. - Seneca Difficulties, struggles, darkness.  The former two often emerge from darkness, from the unknown, from being in a vulnerable state, and from stepping out of the light into uncertainty.  We generally hang ourselves up on the difficulties and struggles of life. The tough times, that deep down actually serve to strengthen us overall. Stepping out of the light, what is working and what doesn’t need changing can also create a very uneasy feeling. Disrupting what is functioning to experience and grow in life can be unsettling. Vulnerability and doing it with purpose isn’t easy, it exposes you to possible failure - difficulties and struggles. The more we begin to understand how the darkness can not only lead to lessons learned but to some amazing places, the more often we’ll be willing to step out of the light into the darkness.  We’re too old to be afraid of the dark, avoid difficult times, ...

Memento Mori - Live life Immediately

“The whole future lies in uncertainty; live immediately.” It’s been 4 weeks since I posted here. 4 weeks that I needed away, needed separation from writing and a break on doing this blog in order to think through some of my own priorities. A chance to practice living immediately and not wait on the uncertain future. I had a dream last night. Likely due to a couple things being on my mind of late, primarily the notion of living immediately has been top of mind for me.  I dreamed I was given 3 days to live. It was scheduled, timed to the exact moment of my demise from a disease. I was entirely healthy to live my regular life, how I wanted to but only 3 days left. Morbid, I know! The intriguing part is how the dream played out. I didn’t panic to really live this extraordinary life over those 3 days, I went about my regular plans through the weekend. Nothing out of the ordinary, I simply went about my days with the worry in mind but no change to the schedule. I know,...
