"Once you know your destination/goal, it’s easy to find the path to it."

Most people worry about looking getting embarrassed when they lose. I worry about that too.

The difference; I know that what I want most for the long-term lies on the other side of what I’m most scared of in the short-term.

People wanna believe bullshit. They don't really need any extra convincing or cajoling.

The best hustlers and con-men recognize this need and ruthlessly play to it.

Just a reminder that the world isn't flat and the only reason anti-vaxxers exist is because their ancestors didn't die from polio or measles.

Who are the ones we've been waiting for?

We are the ones we've been waiting for.

You are the one you have been waiting for.

I cannot tell you the way to your own truth.

Find yourself.

If you scared to take a chance, how the fuck we gon' get rich?"

To a Stoic, nothing is more embarrassing than losing emotional control.

Whatever you do, don't smoke crack.

You don't need a gym. You just need gravity and determination.

One is a given. The other is gained.

Creating relationships around covert contracts leads to a lot of overt problems

I hope 2019 is the year they find a cure for "bitch ass nigga" syndrome.

Running is suddenly an underrated exercise.

You can do so much with it, both distance and sprinting.

I have a soft spot for anyone busting their ass, trying to change their circumstance.

Between your environment, the haters, and your own demons, it's a damn tough journey.

My hat is off to anyone fed up enough to embark on it.

Trying to help family members can be like throwing a rope to a drowning person,

Then having them throw the rope back at you

Tell you to mind your business

And go hang yourself with it (if theyre really toxic)

-Be careful helping out family

Without "wrong", there can be no "correct".

Without "failure", "success" doesn't exist.

Without "bad", "good" is nothing.

The only thing negative about the former terms is your opinion of them.

In reality, they're blessings if you allow them to be.

Having ideas is safe. Testing them is risky.

Only one of these can lead to success, which means it can also to lead to failure.

As a result, everyone has ideas. Few people ever test them.

The truth may set you free, but you gotta remember two things about it:

1. Society doesn't want you to know it. It depends on you believing the lies.
2. By definition, society is made up of people. They will fight you like you're their worst enemy for debunking the lies.

The path to knowing your destination is uncertain.

As time goes on it's clear that experience, i.e:

Knowing where to move, is more valuable than the speed you can move.

There's this thing called "the future". It's coming whether you're ready for it or not. Most of your problems come from not preparing for it.

How many more times was I going to feel embarrassed after hearing how I acted the night before?

How many more times was I going to wake up without being able to remember what the hell I’d done?

Intermittent Fasting is a lifestyle, not something to do when you FEEL like it.

You're kinda fucked in the long-term if you view it as a one-off magic trick.

It's a lifestyle that makes you less hungry, and satisfied on fewer calories.

I doesn’t matter what the nature of the problem is. The fewer people who can solve it, the greater your reward will be if you can.

This occurs for no other reason, than rare things are--by definition--more valuable.

The worst thing that will happen is you die. Since that's unlikely for most challenges, what’s really the worst case scenario?

Embarrassment and wasting time. You’re worried about looking dumb for a long time. Here’s the solution...

People put more energy into arguing why they can't then why they can. Arguing for your weaknesses and limitations is a sure way to keep them.

This is like the gangster who plots and plans for weeks to rob the shipment of TV’s for instant gratification and ego boost.
Instead of putting that effort and energy into something productive that gives them security with no fear of incarceration.
But what’s the fun in that?

Its human nature to take the path of least resistance. This began for purely survival purposes. Today those same threats are no longer here. You must train your mind to be proactive and hardworking. It doesn’t happen over night, it’s not a character trait.

If you can't solve your own problems, you will never own a business.

Hope you enjoy being an employee because otherwise you're in for a long life of soul-crushing work.

Alcohol:

I managed to maintain 10% body fat year-round, drinking 1-3 drinks twice per week.

Caveats:

1. It's difficult to stop after 1-3.
2. If you're trying to get LEANER, I would advise cutting it out more or less completely.

Maintenance is different to progression.

Unless you’re rich already, keeping fixed costs as low as possible is the easiest way to accumulate capital.

So naturally most people do the opposite, lever up, high fixed costs and fall behind.

Y'all: My child gone respect EVERY adult that speak to them period

Me: My child will have a backbone and will let you know about yourself if you get out of line

Adults are fucked manipulating individuals

Preying on the weak

Earn respect

You don't need to give up partying to make money online...

You just need to be willing to work with a massive hangover the next day.

Every issue you face has a solution. Your job is to find the solution or find someone who can solve it for you.

Giving up because of a problem just means you are too lazy to solve it.

I received a number of DMs over the new year's - people asking me how they should quit a hard drug habit.

This appears to be a huge problem.

Stay strong, and get help.

There's no shame in getting help.

Tell your family - they WILL help you.

Let 2019 be your year.

Some also expressed a desire to quit alcohol.

Remember, it's going to be hard. Change always is.

Remember, your body, mind and soul have to last you a lifetime.

@hustlehacker curates steemit blogs to help you quit drinking.

Follow him.

Save your life.

Watch out for anyone claiming to fight racism, but they insult any race-- especially if they pay their bills from the fight.

They're race pimps who literally profit from hate. They're mercenaries who want war.

They don't want to end racism. They'd starve if that ever happened.

Growth

Excitement.
Anticipation.
Sense of Purpose.
Feeling of being Alive.

Growth IS LIFE.

Stagnancy is WORSE THAN DEATH.

Because AWARENESS of 'Death' remains.

This Awareness leads to 'Depression'.

To Grow is not only Necessary.

It's a Moral Duty.

If you start delivering pizzas on weekends, you increase your income.

If you sit around watching Gary V or reading motivational Tweets, you accomplish nothing.

There’s something truly pathetic about men who don’t believe in an organization but stay in it because they’re afraid of upsetting their wives.

The first step to getting help is to actually admit that you need it.

Your ego is gonna keep you from making progress just because you wanna do it your way and on your own.

The truth is that mavericks are rare, pioneers are overrated, and being self-made is a persistent myth.

Don't confuse your strengths with your opponent's weaknesses
