The Mastery Reps: You control your response.

Life can be unfair.

So when life begins throwing shit at you left and right, how you respond will determine the character you build.

Here’s the thing-

You can’t control everything that happens in your life.

There are many variables that will be beyond your control.

And when those variables don’t go your way, yeah it fucking sucks but what are you going to do about it?

Because no matter what happens-

We always have control over how we choose the respond.

You can either cry about it,

Or do something about it.

And yeah, shit can get rough.

But you will always have the choice to either stay down and give up,

Or rise again and continue to fight for all of your dreams.

Choose the latter.

Make the right decisions.

And remember:

The person you are today is the cumulation of all of your decisions up to this point.

Every decision you have made thus far has been your response to all the situations in life you have faced.

Are you proud?

Are you fulfilled?

Do you even like the person you see in the mirror?

Respond to the hardships of life by choosing the difficult yet rewarding decisions of life.

Your dream self will only occur once your present self has accumulated enough wise responses towards life.

Don’t let the struggle keep you down.

Respond to it with a fighting spirit.

Don’t just fight to win-

Fight to overachieve.

And it all starts with accepting that you can’t blame life for your lack of accomplishments.

Hold yourself accountable.

You can’t control what happens, but you will always control how you respond.

Talk soon,

P.S. - I have started a fundraiser to help the Houston Food Bank (largest food bank in the US) fight hunger!
