We all got two wolves in us.
The good one... And the bad one.
They both want to eat, the best from what I can tell is that we just need to feed the good one a little more than the other one.
You know that group of friends you always hang out with? That really might not bring out the best in you?
You know? They gossip too much, or, they're kind of shady, they really aren't going to be there for you in a pinch
Or how about that pub that we keep going to that we always seem to have the worst times from?
Or that computer screen, right? That computer screen that keeps giving us an excuse to not get out of the house and engage with the world and get some real human interaction?
Or how about that food we keep on eating, that stuff that tastes so good going down and makes us feel like crap that night or the day after? We feel lethargic and keep putting on weight?
Well those people, those places, those things... STOP GIVING THEM YOUR TIME AND ENERGY! JUST DON'T GO THERE! I MEAN, PUT THEM DOWN!
And when you do this, when you do put them down, when you quit going there, and when you quit giving them your time you inadvertently find yourself spending MORE time and in more places that are healthy for you! That bring YOU more joy!
Do yourself a favor. Make the choices, the purchases today that pay you back tomorrow, prioritize who you are, who you want to be and don't spend time with anything that antagonizes your character!
Don't drink the Kool-Aid, man! It tastes sweet, but you will get cavities tomorrow, alright? Life is not a popularity contest!
Life's a verb; we try our best, we don't always do our best... Our architecture is a verb as well and since we are the architects of our own lives, let's study the habits, the practices, the routines that we have to lead to and feed our success. Our joy. Our honest pain. Our laughter. Our earned tears. Let's dissect that! And give thanks for those things and when we do that, guess what happens? .... We get better at them! And we have more to dissect. The easiest way to dissect success is through gratitude. Giving thanks for which we do have, for what is working.
Appreciating the simple things we sometimes take for granted, we give thanks for these things and that gratitude... RECIPROCATES! Creating more to be thankful for, it's really simple and it works!
