Gonna start this one off with a quick share
I read this about mother Teresa the other day
And it kinda surprised me and made me
Think twice about my way of thinking.
You see the saintly woman of Calcutta
The one that helped so many people
Toward the end of her life, all but
Denounced Christianity in her dark
Frequent bouts of depression.
But what’s that got to do with you?
What does the depression of a saint
Have to do with your happiness?
Well Broseph if you don’t mind turning
Down that technicolor coat
(you know cuz it’s so loud)
I’ll explain a little something about
Feelings to you.
You see broham, your feelings just about
Control everything about you.
Feeling thirsty?
You’re gonna go find some water
Bored in the bank line?
You’re surfing the internet on your phone
So if you think about it, these feelings
That many consciously try to ignore are
Actually the unconscious result of how
We interact with our environment.
Let’s think about this. If a saint like
Mother Teresa can have what would
Seem like the most fulfilling life ever
And still be depressed, then how the
Hell are the rest of us supposed to even
Hope to even sniff at the chance of
Happiness?
Easy, control your space
Head space that is…
I would have you consider that one of the
Reasons why mother Teresa felt the way she did
Is although she felt fulfilled by helping people
She may have lacked in other areas.
Now she was obviously a great person and
I’m not one to say what’s right or wrong
At the end of the day we’re not all really looking
For the difference between right and wrong
We learned that in kindergarten. (Or should have)
We’re all want to know
What’s working and what’s not
(Within legal limits)
So what works?
Well, I’ll tell you what’s worked for me.
I’m not 100% fulfilled, I’m still working on me
But I’ve found a path that makes me happy.
So much so that I actually do wake up excited.
I didn’t always do that, so this is what changed:
I realized that you can demonstrate the most power in your life
By allowing people the freedom to have their own experience
^^^^^ Read that again briznit ^^^^^
In other words, I’ve found that helping people is
A great way to make a living, but helping people
That don’t want to be helped is a headache.
So that’s why I write these posts to help
People like you that want to share in their experience
And maybe want to discover some ways that they
Can live a fulfilled life.
It’s not easy and a truly fulfilled life is hard to measure
But I think someone like you with the curiosity to
Look for actionable tactics and strategies for success
Is a good example of someone fit for our program.
It’s not open to everyone and I’m not charging anyone
I’m just looking to help people like you by starting
With a conversation. If you’d like to chat about how
Me and my team might be able to help you get to the
Next level in your fun, fitness, finances, and, fulfillment
