Are you willing to fight for it

Life gets rough.

If you have struggles in your life, acknowledge it.

Know that thing has been put before you by the divine hand, in order to challenge you, in order to make you a better person, in order to make you more loving, in order to make you pay attention, in order to make you honor and find your awesomeness in life. If you don’t believe in a divine hand, the cosmos or anything, at least look at it and say maybe this thing I could use to appreciate life even better.

I NEVER really cared about becoming a better version of myself before. I never even considered personal growth. I was perfectly content with just letting things happen to me in life and I always thought I was a good person, so whatever happened happened. I had absolutely no desire to control the future and was just letting life happen to me……isn’t that how most people think and live anyways? After all, everything I had tried in the past either end up as a big mess or a complete failure. So maybe letting life just drift was the best possible plan.

Not taking responsibility for my life was easy and required no extra effort on my end, plus it was comfortable. When things went wrong I would blame something or someone else, but would very rarely point the finger back at myself. Trust me this all seemed to be working just fine for a long time. Then BANG overnight I became a father of two. The story of how is for another time but one day I woke up with an 18 and a 3-month-old to care for.

My entire mentality and view of the future started to slowly change. This wasn’t just about ME anymore. I couldn’t just let life happen without taking ownership of it! What kind of an example would I be setting for my kids? Would I want my children to live that way? Most important how would I feed and cloth this “kids” for the next 18 years. Yes, I have told them 18 is the cutoff.

I slowly started reading personal development (self-help)books and download mindset gurus podcasts like a mad man. At first, I noticed nothing then it seemed the compound effect kicked in and I noticed small changes starting to happen in my mind with the way I viewed the world! I was beginning to take charge of my life and by gaining that self-responsibility, I realized I could control my future! As a parent, it was MY JOB to be the BEST version of myself for my children. My mindset shifted from, We have a good life” to ”We deserve a BETTER life!” I started to become PROACTIVE to creating a better life versus being passive about it.

Flash forward 9 years and guess what! It’s and I am still a work in progress. I’ve been working on this now for 9+ years and I’m still not where I want to be, but I look at how far I’ve come and the gains I’ve made! At this point I know I will continue to work on growing and becoming better! A better Dad and a better man. There is no age limit on personal-growth and it’s important I set this example for my children and not just sleepwalk through life. The goal is never perfection, but to constantly be growing to become the best version of my self to live fully into each moment BIG and Better.

It’s a CHOICE I make every day and I will NEVER stop!
