You Need To Take Off First

The purpose and role of the pilot and the avionics is to continually bring the plane back on course so that it arrives on schedule at its destination – Brian Tracy

The plane is off course 99% of the time…

That’s a lot right, but it always lands at its scheduled destination…

When you embark on a new quest, don’t expect it to be easy and plane sailing…

Like the plane you will be off course alot, you will need to make corrections,go through turbulence, maybe even reroute…

But if you want to arrive at your goal destination…

You need to take off first

It’s not ‘meant to be’ – Its meant to be done

It’s not meant to be – Its meant to be done – Jade Teta.

If it’s meant to be its meant to be – (I hate writing this post because my Nan always said that saying)

But,

If you’re sat around waiting for the stars to align waiting for something to happen then you need to get up, stop star gazing and go and do the work.

The work, The work is meant to be done.

Once the work is done then the work needs to be put out there…

And once that has happened then it might be.

You might fail, But if you did the work then you will have learnt some valuable lessons, you can course correct and try again…

That is how we learn and grow, and that’s how we make our stars align…

Not by waiting, By doing.

You Are What You Eat…

You are what you eat…

You feed yourself garbage, eventually, you start to feel like garbage, your energy levels drop and your output is garbage too…

The same is true for the information you feed yourself, The people yourself with, The music, the tv shows, what you read…

All this information is fed into our subconscious…

If you feel negative, lack motivation and have a can’t be arse mentality, Then look at the people you surround yourself with, How do they talk, how do they act,

What are you listening too on the radio and on the tv, is it drama, drama and more drama, same with your reading are you just reading the drama on facebook…

Garbage in – Garbage out

Choose Your Ancestors…

“We were kids without fathers, so we found our fathers on wax and on the streets and in history, and in a way, that was a gift. We got to pick and choose the ancestors who would inspire the world we were going to make for ourselves.”
― Jay-Z

‘We got to pick and choose our ancestors…’

We can’t choose our family, but we can choose our inspiration,

We choose the people we look up to, the information we feed ourselves, the books we read, the movies we watch…

In the Book Steal Like An Artist – Austin talks about the concept of choosing your Ancestors.

You take your inspiration and find who inspired them, then you find your inspirations inspiration and repeat the process, eventually, you have a family tree of inspiration, whose work you study, imitate and create new ideas…

Create your own family tree, Create your own world, Create Yourself

One of the greatest regrets in life

One of the greatest regrets in life is being what others would want you to be, rather than being yourself.”
― Shannon L. Alder

Don’t throw yourself away.

Theres a saying that goes around in the personal development world…

‘Do what you love’

But sometimes doing what you love doesn’t bring you an income, or when you start making money for doing what you love then you eventually resent what you love, (Theres a few examples in the book unscripted)

So we have to find somthing that we can live off and you know survive…

But that does not mean we have to throw ourselves in the trash so we can live…

We can still do what we love and enjoy what we love, Whilst loving the job that we do.

If you want to get together with your friends and become a rock and on the weekend then do that, If you love painting and drawing then do that in your free time…

Just because you can’t make money from the things we love, does not mean we should throw that part of ourselves away…
