Concepts and Misconceptions

  1. Be better for you

    a. Being better isn’t about “getting” things or “being” someone. It’s not about proving anyone anything. It’s not about living up to someone else’s ideals. It’s about being the “best” “you” that you can be…So that you can be proud of yourself. It’s about having confidence in who “you” are and not letting anything or anyone decide that for you.

  2. Have freedom

    a. Freedom doesn’t mean you do whatever you want when you want just because you want to. It’s about not feeling trapped. It’s about not letting anyone (even yourself) hold yourself back from the things you truly want in life. It’s also about knowing what you truly want in life and having the confidence knowing your’re living life working towards the life that you want.

  3. Control your destiny

    a. Along with freedom is the control. But it’s not about having control and power over situations, people or things. It’s about controlling yourself. Confidence and safety come from knowing yourself and being realistic about yourself, who you are, and what you want. One of the biggest factors of success is having the confidence in achieving it.

  4. Crush all perceived limitations

    a. Personally, some of the most fulfilling moments in life have come from breaking past limitations. Being able to see and experience things that you never even knew could be possible is an amazing feeling. “If I even reach perfection I’ll know I wasn’t trying hard enough.” “I see this spark in you. It’s amazing.” “You owe the world your gifts”

  5. Success

    a. Success is just achieving an objective. It doesn’t have to be something “amazing”. It doesn’t have to be materialistic. It doesn’t have to matter to anyone but yourself. It’s about looking at yourself and what you truly want. How do you want to experience the small window of time that you have in this existence. Success could be doing a job that you’re proud of. It could be about being the person you can truly be proud of. Success can be faked and feel hollow though if it is not based on your realistic thoughts and feelings. Are you lying to yourself about being “happy”. Are you letting other people’s perceptions of success and who you should be dictate your feelings and thoughts? If you live a lie, all the success you think will make you happy, you’ll ultimately find to be meaningless or unfulfilling.

Expectations?

  1. The only things I could ever want for you is to live life the way you truly want to live. To be proud of yourself without question. To get from life all the things you want. “And even if you never reach it, what better is there to live?

    a. In the end you’ll always be the only thing I needed you to be…My kids. I love you and I’m proud of you.

So what’s next?

Up to you…
