Reminders make me motivated.

I constantly think about what I want to do going forward.

So many options in life.

So many paths to take.

It’s honestly really stressful.

What if I choose the wrong path?

What if I get stuck in a certain direction?

What if I fail?

In these moments, I used to get overwhelmed and let fear take over.

Now, in these moments, I remind myself of what I think I am good at, what I want to do, and what I feel is the right direction.

I love to do the following:

Then, I think about how I could insert those things in my life as I go forward:

Get equipment and software to make music, learn how to use it all going forward and write all creatives I make down on paper to come back to.
Play basketball and practice to get better.
Play golf and practice to get better.
Get equipment for a sports podcast or youtube channel, learn how to use it all going forward and keep all of my ideas down to come back to and create.
Consistently work on my writing skills, write everything I want to put down going forward and create.
Be a useful resource to those who need to get through hard times, learn how to counsel those better and how to be there for people in all kinds of scenarios.
In all of these areas, I want to network as much as I can to get support as I navigate each of these areas.

When I play devil’s advocate for myself, I think about what could go wrong or if I fail.

At first, I scare myself with those possibilities.

However, the most important reminder that I tell myself that I want to stick with me as long as I shall live is this:

If I am doing what I love and trying my best, it doesn’t matter what happens. Being at peace with myself, knowing that I am where I am supposed to be and putting my best foot forward is all I need. Failure is a part of life, but it is a lot easier to jump back up when what you are chasing is something you know is right. God will help me up and have my back. I know I’ll keep chugging. I always have and I always will.

That’s all that matters to me.

Being at a mental peace and knowing that my foot going forward is where I want to go.

Now, it’s just time to put that foot forward.

I can’t wait.
