Who is Really Stopping Us?

Who can really stop us? ??

The economy? ??

The people around us? ??

Our friends? ????

Our family? ??

Bad weather? ?

A lack of money? ??

A lack of resources? ??

You could say that.

But let me ask you this.

Is it possible to be born in a poor neighborhood in a small city in either Europe, Africa, Asia or even the US, and still achieve what you’ve always wanted? ??

If the answer is yes, then what do you think is stopping most of us? ??

As we’ve seen, it’s rarely a lack of resources.

Don’t have the money? ??

You can raise it or hustle for it nowadays. Our world doesn’t lack a need for hustlers or for good investments.

Don’t know the right people? ??

How many emails or contacts is anyone away from you if you really wanted to get in touch?

Don’t have the skills and abilities? ??

YouTube alone has all the skills and abilities for free, but it requires both time and effort.

Bring Benjamin Franklin to today’s world, give him a phone and let him use it. ??

“You guys can learn anything and search for any answer, to any problem you want, for free? ??

But you started to workship cats like the Egyptians back in the day?” ??

Nothing against cats but they have their own plans and as we know, they rarely let anyone stop them from doing what they want.

Why would it be different for any of us?

In most cases, no one is holding us back, but rather what we believe other people might think of us. ??

What if I do it and fail …? It’s not going to look good in my biography or the documentary of my life … ??

Well, guess what, most of the biographies and documentaries we see of successful people are filled with failures. ?

One of the patterns we can see is massive failure and massive action. ??

Only close people can notice all those long dark nights or all those early mornings. ?????

Saying NO and taking responsibilities isn’t easy, otherwise, Jordan Peterson wouldn’t be so popular with the young audience. ??

Everyone needs some motivation, but if we get motivation only by random events and get easily unmotivated by what others might say or even worse, think, then we probably must re-evaluate what isn’t right. ??

The bright side is that other people have figured this out and there’s a solution for almost anything. ??

Sometimes it’s just one Google search away, one person away or one message away. ??
