Fall Down 7 Times, Get Up 8. Your Purpose Is Still Out There!

I lost my focus. But I’m back; no more looking back. No more slacking and wasting my time by being idle. When I look around at my surroundings, I’m appreciative because the next person has it way worse than me. So why allow my mind to get into a bind by overthinking life and looking at past trials when all I need to do is smile and be grateful for life? I woke up this morning. That means I still can fulfill my purpose. Since I have so much time on my hands, I observe, pay attention to other people and pick up on things that I never used to notice before. Evidently, everyone is going through their own “personal shit,” and I feel it. Everything in life is hard, and that’s just the way it goes. It’s easy to convince yourself that you’ll never make it. I’ve seen that shit, and I’ve lived through it. But you have to get out of that destructive mentality, or you’ll sink. You’ll allow people’s negative energy to protrude onto you. Then you turn bitter and lose yourself just like them. And who wants to be like everyone else? That being said, I want to remind you of something. I leave it in the hands of Bob Marley’s lyrics: Don't worry about a thing 

'Cause every little thing gonna be alright 

Singing' don't worry about a thing 

'Cause every little thing gonna be alright. Song lyrics may not change your life situation, but the words; the meaning does allow you to put things into perspective. Things are never as bad as they may seem. Be grateful. Cherish who you have around you. Love people. Take the time to help someone else you see struggling. You never really know what someone’s going through. We as people hide sometimes. We don’t want others to know the “real” us and what we’re thinking. So be gentle and know that every little thing is going to be alright. You can still start your business. You will graduate from high school, college, or graduate school. You will become the next professional wrestler. You can still write your own book. You will become president. You can still open up your very own orphanage. You will touch people’s lives tremendously. Sometimes I wonder is this real life? Ultimately, I feel like the answer is yes. You’re placed into situations that seem questionable or think to yourself, “how am I supposed to handle this?” “What do I do?” The path is never clear. Just know as long as you put one foot in front of the other, your situation is bound to change. Stay hopeful!

When’s the last time you looked into the mirror and told yourself you’re beautiful, handsome, you will make it, you’re worthy, you’re strong, you’re loved? I encourage you to wake up tomorrow morning look in the mirror and say these simple words. It may not seem like much, but words have the power to change your whole overall outlook completely; not only on life, but about the way you perceive yourself. I always say this, but I want to address it to you again... YOU’RE HERE FOR A PURPOSE! Don’t question yourself. Keep going and never stop until you get what you want!

Life’s truly a gift no matter what you face. You can do anything in this life. Block out that negative noise. You’re worth it; you deserve it!

I’ll be back soon :) Take care y'all! <3
