There’s no happiness to be had engaging in things you don’t value.
I’ve thought about it, tried it, deeply engaged with it– and I can tell you that if you don’t care about the thing you won’t suddenly change in the future.
I never wanted a normal and balanced life, but I did suddenly reach a point where because I was unhappy for many years, I tried doing the “normal” things.
I experimented and don’t get me wrong, I’m happy I did.
But, now I know not to even bother with those things because I always feel shitty engaging with them.
Here’s what I mean: If you value eating clean, you’ll feel shitty every time you don’t. If you value being active, you’ll feel unhappy lounging around.
The point is: LIVE your values.
I know, I know.
I’ve preached that so much and even myself, I’ve broken the rules more than enough times. I guess I just had to be certain, and now I am.
I DON’T value normal.
I never did.
At first, I looked back and saw that as a waste of life. I thought maybe I was cheating myself by not at least trying those things, so I did.
But now I can tell you, those things aren’t how I want to spend my time.
Find your own code, and never ease off it.
Learn what makes you feel great and what doesn’t– and ruthlessly follow it.
STOP aiming to change yourself, change your environment instead.
I never wanted normal.
I want success, ambition, building, being active, disciplined… I want a life of mastery.
That’s where you’ll find me.
