Early morning thoughts after a sleepless night:
For a lot of my life, I've lived through this tunneled concept of reality in which I'm one of the more naturally fortunate people on the world. I've been draped in blessings, and positive circumstances from day one; naturally, I had kind of grown into this beatific way of living-- thinking everything that was handed to me was deserved by me, and anything not granted to me was mine to go get. I never really took time to realize all the work going on behind the scenes that truly provided me with these gifts, and this great life. The toils of my mom and dad, the instructions and guidance of my teachers; the good words from my friends. I've been very humbled lately by some interpersonal, and intrapersonal conflicts. I don't want to elaborate on too much, but I've began to view everything in a different light, and have moved away from those esoteric feelings and towards a newer gratitude and motivational drive.
So here's a few parting words:
You can either face the world as though it owes you something, or you can realize that there are a million people chasing the same thing you desire, and you can put in the work to acquire what it is that you want. One's will is a powerful thing when it's used to it's fullest.
Have a good weekend everybody,
-Jack
