You Have To Have Up’s & Down’s

Happiness is a choice and discipline creates the habit and the habit creates the freedom we desire.

Fostering a perspective of gratitude along with a mentality of “shit could always be worse” is my key to not letting the times of adversity keep me down.

I’m not happy every single moment of every single day, otherwise, I wouldn’t be human.

I feel all the emotions just as all of you but my focus is on the vision for my life I created and I won’t let anything stop me from at least TRYING to obtain that vision.

That said, I put in the mental and physical work every single day as I audit my choices on a constant basis always thinking… “how can I succeed in this effort?” “what would it take?” “what can I learn from this experience?” what do I truly want?” And really focus on the life I’ve been given and all the abundance within it.

In order to have light, we must have darkness just as if we say there’s an up then there has to be a down.

It’s the yin and yang aspect of life and in order to have success, we must have tribulations, “failures”, and hardships.

With stress comes breakthroughs and strength. With pressure comes diamonds.

It’s not easy, but it’s SIMPLE.

With daily practice, just as any muscle becomes stronger, the mind builds strength, and the actions we take on our visions manifest into our reality.

Remember, discipline creates habits and the habits create freedom. When you let your body dictate how your mind works with giving into comfort as your condition habit to do so, you can’t expect to get new results in your life. As simple as getting out of bed when your alarm goes off is often step one to creating a new habit rather than hitting snooze.

What “downs” have you experienced that led you to an “up” in your life?
