Chasing The Real You

New Goals Don’t Deliver New Results. New Lifestyles do. And a Lifestyle is a Process, NOT an Outcome. For this Reason, Your Energy Should Go Into Building Better Habits, Not Chasing Better Results.
James Clear

We are all chasing the best version of ourselves.

We encounter unhappy people everyday. By the time we log unto the internet or even turn on the television, we already had to deal with ourselves. Some wake up joyful, grateful, annoyed, tired, etc. Others wake up in medical pain, depressions, anger, etc… By the time we wake up, one thing is universal. We are looking for the happiest version of ourselves for the next 24 hours.

Consequently, we are looking to be FULFILLED.

Finding Fulfillment Through the Journey

Initially, in my journey from poverty, I thought I was seeking knowledge and wealth. In truth, I wanted to prove people wrong. I wanted those who made me feel bad, to also feel bad because I was winning. The side effect of self improvement, your environment changes and so do the people. I can now say that I miss those people. Why?

Because I wish we could have all been different in the past, warmer and more understanding. We were kids. Maybe we could have helped each other versus hurting each other.

As of late, I realized the path altered itself. Thus, the journey modified me. The destination is to be fulfilled. We are breathing, feeling and evolving. It’s not all about the money. Ask yourself what would you do if you had all the money in the world?

Spending money would get old. That sounds crazy but it’s true. After all the parties, you will eventually get bored and would still have to confront the truth. Life is about way more than spending, traveling, luxury living and etc…

Take moment to evaluate if your journey is in alignment with what you will need to do in life. Consider how you will be remembered. Review how impactful you are to the people who need you the most. Find your true north and you will fin that the journey is better than the destination.

As for me, I share and want to build a space where people won’t have to hurt each other to feel complete.
