How the world views you

Let me know if this sounds like you:

Your friends and family are supportive but skeptical that you’ll amount to anything.

they sometimes get frustrated when they see you bounce from thing to thing with no lasting progress

they're confused and sometimes dismissive because they don't understand the path you’re on and what you’re dealing with or they don't get the point of grinding self-improvement or cultivating a better mindset

some peers respect your ambition, while others see you as a dreamer, not a doer. peers who are comfortable where they feel superior because they think that you’re “trying too hard” and “don't accept reality for what it is.”

society at large has mixed views too…

traditional thinkers see you as lost. the older generation & conventional thinkers view you as unrealistic or entitled sometimes due to their programming/conditioning.

entrepreneurs and high achievers relate to you because it reminds them of their early days, going against the grain, taking the long route, and learning the hard way.

social media amplifies your insecurities and preys on them via fomo and other toxic algorithmic targeting.

this perception affects you negatively because many people in your position lack the foundational self-confidence & awareness required to not internalize all the criticism and just give up. They haven’t learned how to detach.

others combat that feedback and use it to fuel them to prove them wrong from an egoic standpoint — effective but still going about it the wrong way.

many feel isolated because their current environment doesn't support their growth.

This is exactly what I felt like before I invested heavily in my mindset. I learned about spirituality and how learning more about your role in the universe empowers you to be mindful and conscious of your shortcomings, but also how to come to terms with them in a compassionate way.

It’s not an easy or overnight process, but you’ll thank yourself for the rest of your life.

It’ll allow you to pursue bigger goals and feel like genuinely aligned with the version of yourself that you’re supposed to be.

The biggest lesson I learned (that’s become a sort of mantra for me) is the following:

“I am not my character”

The meatbag that you think is you, isn’t.

All the shit that society tells you about your character doesn’t have to be acknowledged. The labels, narratives, opinions, and guesses about what you’ll do in this life have NOTHING to do with who you truly are and what you’re capable of.

When you look deeper into belief systems and mindset principles, you’ll learn that you’ve been discrediting yourself this whole time and that you’re more powerful than you could’ve ever imagined.

Go down that rabbit hole, it’s worth it.

Have a great week,
