If you want something I’m telling you right now you better aggressively want it. If you don’t aggressively want something then you are probably a quitter. Putting your all in to something is a life requirement so quit just doing things half way. Get it together and chase it with all you have. Successful people DO NOT happen overnight! People don’t just wake up one morning and quit working minimum wage jobs. If that was the case we would probably all be investing millions into the wondrous research revolving around teleportation (or idk at least all have timeshares in some exotic land am I right?). However that is not the case. So just quit feeling mediocre and get a move on with the rest of your life.
We will all feel that way some time or another. “Oh I wish I was doing this.” “Oh I wish this was different in my life.” “Oh this isn’t going how I want it to.” I mean duh… Of course it’s not. You need to put in some work and let life work itself out. You will get what you deserve in due time.
I never got my video to go live that explained that no, I do not work at the gym any longer. Was it a great experience? Yes. Did I meet great people? Heck yes. It just wasn’t a good fit for my life anymore. I felt that I was compromising my happiness at such a key growing point in my life, and honestly nothing is ever worth losing your happy over.
I’m preaching to you guys about all of this because I’m feeling a little down about just being a cashier again after having a job in a position that I quite enjoyed. BUT I SHOULDN’T. Some people don’t even have jobs.
For my whole life the best adults I know have been telling me to “Suck it up.” (Hey Dawn and Neil and Mom and Dad that means you guys.) Let me tell you. I’ve been failing at it. I’m about a month and a half into 2015 and I haven’t been aggressive enough about the things I want. I’VE JUST BEEN BLINDLY LETTING LIFE HAPPEN TO ME INSTEAD OF GOING OUT THERE AND CRUSHING EVERY OPPORTUNITY I GET. Well. Here I am sucking it up and taking another stab at it.
Time for a little poll about what we’ve learned today! Remember these? 🙂
