Me and my brothers setup a challenge for ourselves this week. We each have to tell a challenging stories and post them to our audience.
Seems fun. Seemed easy at first. We took for granted a few details.
BIGGEST HICCUP. We're all tenacious with extreme backgrounds. We got stories for days. But we forget them easily.
Maybe we're too positive cuz what some see as a struggle we see as an ordinary Tuesday.
We relate to it different and forget it.
Plus, I'm not a fan of "I overcame" success-porn. Yes I do incredible things, but we're supposed to because that's what life is.
So it took me and my brothers coming together to realize how to get over those hurdle.
Same issue you face daily.
What's that?
We made our stories about OURselves.
What's wrong with that?
Our lives are about us.

However ALL stories are meant to be about the listener.
World right now is beautiful chaos. Real issue is some people are caught up in their preferences and dictating what the world should be based on that limited knowledge.
Same goes for you.
Stop overthinking what to text the girl to sound cool. Start thinking about what she needs to hear to feel good about her day and choices. Then she'll associate that peace with being around you.
Stop doubting your next social media post. Start listening to your audience and give them what they want directly and indirectly.
Stop making what you share about you.
Start giving people what they want and need to get to the next level.
They're hurting, they want progression. Not to coddle your doubts and misconceptions.
Relax. Be part of the moment instead of steamroll it.
Think about it.
Stay Vigilant,
