You fall to the level of preparation you put in before the time of need. Many people think they will be able to rise to the occasion in crunch time, but that rarely happens. You need to train and evaluate yourself regularly.

You've survived all your worst moments. All the moments you thought were the end. But they weren't. You've got this.

If you're not making the decisions that people who have achieved what you want are making, you shouldn't be surprised when you don't achieve that thing.

Your actions can change your feelings, too. Don't just wait to feel like doing the thing. Start the thing anyway and your feelings will follow.

We all have those dumb habits that are a waste of time. The question is, do you ever evaluate these things and make changes? Or just keep wasting your time like you have an unlimited supply?

If you're afraid to receive feedback that doesn't tell you how great you are, how do you expect to learn and get better?

Just a friendly reminder, you're not perfect. So yes, your feelings, thoughts, and emotions can be wrong. Start questioning your own reactions before blaming others. You'll find yourself in a better place in the long run.

What good does it do to complain about having to do something that's just a part of life? Plus, you asked for it. You wanted it. You prayed for it. So just take care of it. It's that simple.

Giving up at the first emotion is easy. But we want to not act through our emotions. You can learn to get through that initial charge to work through the problem logically. That's where we want to make the big decisions.

Water doesn't fight reality. It accepts what it's given and finds a way. Then it goes to work building a better path over time. Be like that.
