Never Give Up
There are times in life where we feel like we’ve exhausted every option. Nothings working. As well as all hope seems lost. We count ourselves out before the fight is over. We go in with the expectation of failing or losing. But we can’t do that. There’s so much we are capable of doing. We don’t give ourselves the chance. I’m extremely guilty of this. We look for others to push us. But we don’t need that. No one can walk in your shoes for you. You have to do the work. Sometimes we don’t realize what we want is so achievable and right in front of us. But it’s not going to be easy. Each level of life requires a different and evolved version of ourselves. We get comfortable sometimes and it stunts our growth and potential when we settle for being comfortable. We owe it to ourselves and the people who believe in us to be the very best version of ourselves we can be. Day in and day out. Absolutely, we will be met with hardships, obstacles, challenges and losses that we have to take square on in the chin. People are going to quit on you, pray on your downfall, and it’s gonna come from places expected and unexpected.. The unexpected ones will always hurt more than the expected.. But please DON’T QUIT ON YOURSELF.. To quote one of my all-time favorite movies as well as it being one of my all time favorite quotes:
“Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!”- Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone)
You got things you want to do? Don’t wait on them. Go for it. Those who stick around in your life and support you? Great, hold on to authentic people. Life is too short to keep phony and fake people around who constantly drain you and don’t add value or you don’t add value to… Those who take advantage of you are missing out and it’s truly their loss.. NEVER YOURS.. You don’t always have to take the trash out in life. Let the trash take itself out.. You do you. Make it a point to have fun. Always be kind and Always be a GOOD PERSON. We need so many more of them in our world. Don’t be a person of convenience. Be a person of authenticity and kindness.
3 of the best NEVERS to always remember.
NEVER TRADE AUTHENTICITY FOR APPROVAL.
NEVER LOSE HOPE.
NEVER GIVE UP.
