What do I feel like I’m entitled to, that I am not?
Heavy, right?
It turns out, that deep seated resentment, the feeling you want to combust and swallow your surroundings in your own internal raging fire… that– isn’t that deep, you’re just entitled.
To what?
I don’t know.
But for myself, the answer to the top question was immediate: success. And that’s a huge eye opener.
Realizing I’m not is liberating.
Now the answer is simple: Work. Commit to your work, and forget success– because it’s not something you deserve.
And if it wasn’t about success, and it was just about the work itself that would raise an entirely different question:
What would you become?
Our work, works on us, it shapes us and makes us. The skills you learn literally rewire the brain- so, forget the pot of gold for a sec and think about who you could be and how that person acts, behaves, and lives.
Funny enough, looking at this new question– I’m “being” exactly who I’m supposed to.
It’s not going to be clear skies from here, childhood still lingers around in our mental safe spaces.
At least now, I have an anchor.
Hope this helps you on your trail, #FOOLFWD.
