Been awhile since I posted on the page but just wanted to share some things with everyone
So this is the truth and a little bit of my story:
My biggest fear has always been that I won't see everything this world has to offer and that I won't accomplish dreams that have always kept me motivated. I have noticed that most of the people in my life have settled, there was always things they wanted to do but they took the safe route and made decisions based on money. They wear their work clothes to bar every night of the week just to prove to everyone that they have a career, but I know thats not what they wanted in life. They stop wanting things and continue to go to jobs they don't like. I could be wrong but if you told me that when you were a kid your dream job was to have a desk job I would have thought you were crazy, as a matter of fact I still do (not hating on people who have those jobs, I just don't understand it) so I told myself when I was young I would never end up like that.
I was fortunate enough to realize at a young age that this world is really messed up, but I wanted to help change that by helping people. So that has been my mission my whole life to help people and stay away from a desk. The way I originally wanted to do that was to be a rescue swimmer for the Coast Guard, but I kept that a secret because I didn't want anyone to try and talk me out of it. So that was my plan for after I graduated college. Just to my luck I would tear my ACL my final semester of college which ruled me out of being eligible to do so, the Coast Guard told me that due to my many other injuries I couldn't go through Rescue Swimmer Training School. So I had to throw that out, that's life I guess. So I chose to be a trainer and to coach wrestling. Neither one of those professions were a backup plan but I just thought I would be doing it later in life, however God had other plans, so that is my main focus now and that is how I'm helping people and living my dream.
There's no way I can make a living do those things is what I've been told for awhile now. Come to think of it I have had nothing but doubters in just about everything I've ever done. Not only am I making my dream jobs work, I still find them every bit of fulfilling and rewarding as I thought. As a trainer I am helping inspire people to become the strongest version of themselves even when they don't believe they can. As a coach I do the same thing for young boys/girls in a sport that I love.
So my whole point in this rant is that I've been told by cowards my whole life that I would have to settle and work my whole life for someone else doing something I found pointless and that only a few people in this life really get to do what they want or feel called to do, so just enjoy the little things and endure. Please don't buy in to this, you do have to endure but don't take the easy route just to get by, do what you feel you are called to do. You can't always win but don't be afraid of making decisions. The only way to make it through this life without failing is to live life so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all, in which case you fail by default. I refused to have a plan B, because it would only distract from plan A, so for all you doubters who said I wouldn't make it guess what I already did, so I appreciate that motivation you gave me wink emoticon
So my biggest fear is no longer an issue because I know when I die I will die on E, I will leave nothing behind; I refuse to not do the things I want to do anymore cause I've proven everybody wrong my whole life.
I had the conversation with myself many times before but this speech in this video changed my life https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_Vg4uyYwEk
