Anything is Possible

When I look back at my life. I remember a lot of regret.

Wow, I wished I could have gotten better grades... Almost failing out of College.

Being Diagnosed with ADHD...

Little did I know that hiring a coach would plant a seed in my head.

A seed I could not shake off.

I remember thinking these super confident Enterprise Account Executives just have something that I do not...

I remember being an SDR for a guy named Adam, who was just always so confident. I wanted to be like him.

I remember getting let go from three different companies, and every time, I was devastated.

What did this mean about my identity?

Was I a failure?

Am I destined to be an average human being?

Deep down inside... I knew I was capable of so much more.

Luckily, in working on myself, I realized that it's possible to get better...

I hated my filler words and I am still working on it... 300 Podcast Episodes later. It's possible to improve.

I started to numb myself through substances and food.

My unhealthy addiction to eating when I'm sad made me so guilty of myself.

I was finally forced to deal with my demons.

Either I run away from my problems, or I tackle them head-on.

I became comfortable with myself without the distraction of video games, eating food, and surrounding myself with a ton of people all the time.

I grew stronger by realizing that I am enough without the accomplishments, awards, and status of working for world-class organizations.

I realize that I am capable of so much more than I could have imagined as a young child and well into my young adult years.

I realized that despite my self-doubt and empathy, and because of the traumas I've experienced, I can use this platform to help others improve their lives.

It hasn't been easy, but being vulnerable and sharing openly about the struggles can help other human beings.

“Freedom to pass back and forth across the world division, from the perspective of the apparitions of time to that of the causal deep and back — not contaminating the principles of the one with those of the other, yet permitting the mind to know the one by virtue of the other — is the talent of the master. The Cosmic Dancer, declares Nietzsche, does not rest heavily in a single spot, but gaily, lightly, turns and leaps from one position to another. It is possible to speak from only one point at a time, but that does not invalidate the insights of the rest. The individual, through prolonged psychological disciplines, gives up completely all attachment to his personal limitations, idiosyncrasies, hopes and fears, no longer resists the self-annihilation that is prerequisite to rebirth in the realization of truth, and so becomes ripe, at last, for the great at-one-ment. His personal ambitions being totally dissolved, he no longer tries to live but willingly relaxes to whatever may come to pass in him; he becomes, that is to say, an anonymity.” — Joseph Campbell

Yesterday, I had a call with a client, and I noticed how hard he was on himself despite all of his accomplishments. After our call he felt a sense of peace and fulfillment.

Today I just got off the call with a client and this guy has achieved what most people will never achieve in their lifetime. He said he felt calmer and more present in the good in life after our conversation.

We should give ourselves the same grace we give our best friends.
