"Start worrying about yourself. If you don't invest in your own life, then why would anyone else choose to invest in your life either."
Embrace the Within.
Life is exhausting if you let the minutia of it all overwhelm you. We can spend our days worrying about everyone else and end up feeling defeated and worn out. Or we can invest in our own lives and feel a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. It is our choice.
There are a lot of agents working against you helping you. So many groups and individuals are out there trying to get your focus off the work you need to do. So many groups and individuals are out there trying to sell you a quick fix. So many groups and individuals are out there attempting to take advantage of your good nature. It is time you shut them out, shut them down, and moved on to you.
You’ll get called selfish BUT that’s the best they’ve got is name-calling. If you’re not being called names in this society of shame, then you aren’t doing anything. You’re background noise. So, embrace the haters. It’s part of living BUT find your tribe. You need authentic folks that care about your goals, that care about your interests, that care about you. And despite what you see from any media or influencer, there are still a few good souls out there. Souls that have tasted the taint of where this culture is going and decided to change that course for them.
Ultimately, that is the only choice you can make. We are all part of the culture. We all get to influence its direction. Every day we get to choose what we feed into that culture. This is one reason I tire of complaining.
Folks complain as if it changes anything. It just reinforces the status quo. If you really want change, then you’re not going to sit around complaining, talking, or arguing about it. You’re going to go make the change. And you’re going to do it right now. BUT a lot of people want activity and not action. They want to do something to occupy their time that doesn’t take work.
If you want to complain about your life, if you want to complain about the lives of others, then you need to get your own life. Get your life in order and you’ll find a lot more work to do and a lot less to complain about.
Have the day you want. I hope you find whatever you’re looking for.
