Beyond The Surface

Did you do what you intended to do in 2023?

2023 was a year in which I experienced so much growth financially, spiritually, and personally that it felt unreal looking back at it.

That said, I also came face-to-face with several lessons that stood out to me, and I wanted to share them with you.

In this video, I also wanted to share a few things I really want to implement in 2024 that will take me to new heights.

If you haven't already, I suggest you take some time to reflect on the year 2023 and see what you can do differently in this new year that you didn't do in 2023.

What’s the point of having opportunities if you continue to squander them because you choose to stay who you always have been💭

In every opportunity, there is something to be learned, gained, or discovered that can lead you to your next stage in life.

In this episode, I will discuss a person's typical viewpoint regarding the opportunities they have been given. We will also discuss a reason as to why we squander most opportunities we've been given.

Suppose you have many opportunities coming your way. Still, for whatever reason, you don't capitalize on them or believe you failed at them. In that case, this podcast episode is for you.

Your losses and failures, no matter how big or small, are all shaping the path you’re on.

You may have encountered a setback that may seem like the impact has derailed your train but it hasn't.

It merely pushed you in a direction outside of what YOU intended but it's all leading to the path you ultimately need to be on.

Success is not linear!

Allow your heart and mind to be unrestricted as it relates to what you think your path should look like.

What you focus on grows!

So if you continually focus on where you aren't in life, what you don't have, not being enough, lack, etc., that's what you'll get more of.

In this episode, I discuss the importance of being present and acknowledging where we are and what we have now instead of focusing on what we lack.

Be mindful of what you think and how you speak.

Life is always going to be in a state of ebb and flow. Don't be hard on yourself in a low tide. You'll get back to the high soon enough.

Understand you are human, and even with all the positive changes, you cannot escape adversity💯

What you do after will measure whether you succeed or fail in whatever you’re trying to accomplish.

Give yourself, Grace, remember you’re in it for the long haul; give yourself, Grace, remember you’re in it for the long haul!

Trust is a significant component of vulnerability, and that trust starts with yourself.

When you haven’t built that trust in yourself, it will make being vulnerable with others difficult.

There is an immense amount of understanding that is created from sharing your weaknesses, your fears, and your emotional state with those you trust.

Fellas, if you have trouble being vulnerable or your not sure when you should be vulnerable then checkout this full episode.

Most people believe they must take it on all at once to overcome a circumstance or situation.

We think like this because we want to detach ourselves from feeling any pain related to that problem.

By doing this, we're creating more of the pain we're trying to avoid in the first place.

The answer is to take small steps so that you can build momentum.

In this episode, I discuss how our minds operate during stressful times and ways in which we can move beyond our circumstances.

In this episode, I highlight five reasons why we "Men" don't ask for help.

1. Ego Gets Involved
2. We Don't Want to Appear Weak
3. Judgment by Others
4. We Can Handle Anything
5. Facing Truth About Ourselves

Asking for help doesn't make you weak; it makes you stronger. 

By seeking help, we minimize suffering within ourselves and maximize the potential for greater outcomes.
