Stop giving up what you want most...
Jul 27, 2022 1:33 pm
for what you want right now.
We all want the wedding, the cars, the house...
Okay maybe not all of us.
But you can definitely relate to at some point in your life making poor lifestyle decisions because you don't have patience and wanted something "RIGHT NOW," rather than later on.
I have literally watched in real time people tell me they want one thing from life, yet their actions are headed in the exact opposite direction!
Is this you?
What do you want most?
Idk about you, but I want freedom.
What do I define as freedom?
The ability to wake up in an environment I enjoy, around other people that LIVE LIFE in a way that inspires me to grow, oh yeahhhhh and to do whatever the fuck I want to do, when I want to do it.... within reason obviously. :)

To make this happen, it will take certain sacrifices.
For instance, I will need a bunch of $$$ to make this happen.
So I have to sacrifice not spending money on things I want NOW, and invest in the products/services/businesses/people I know will help me achieve what I want most.
I have to say no to the events, gatherings, "hangouts" that don't align with what I want most.
I don't just have to say no...
I have to say yes to exercising when I don't necessarily want to.
I have to read/write/record/edit complete tedious and monotonous tasks that most people procrastinate on or refuse to do at all.
I have to say yes to constantly spending my time listening to podcasts/books/people that I can learn from.
Why am I telling you this?
Because I am giving you the blueprint to unlocking the life you want.
- Write down what you want most.
- Work towards it EVERY SINGLE DAY. No more excuses!!!!
- Say NO to everything that doesn't align with your definition of what YOU want.
Even better, respond to this email with what you want most. You bet your ass I will hold you accountable to taking action on it.

p.s. today I am grateful for having a partner in life, my wife, who understands how to sacrifice for what we want most. I could not ask for a better teammate.
