My beliefs wont allow me to do what I want
Guess what, your beliefs, just like everything else about you, are your own decision. You choose your beliefs, they dont choose you. What will make you happier? It’s up to you.

Spark The Flame
Spark The Flame. The Flame is within. An inner fire, that grows everytime you focus on it. This is the fire of your power, your power to affect your life and your world. Just like a physical fire, your flame affects everything it comes across, everything.
Spark The Flame, within yourself, and help to Spark the Flame in others. We are all matchstick figures, flammable to the highest degree.

“Dreaming of that place we all look for. We try to achieve. That quiet peaceful place where we feel powerful and aren’t afraid. The place where our brain is used at it’s capacity. So the potential is unlimited.
Where there is no fear.
Just love and fresh air and healthy water.
Lots of tall trees with deep mysterious shadows and beautiful moving bodies of water that teach us that life is always renewing itself.
Reminding us that change is un-avoidable. Part of growing.”

When you do not see a viable choice for yourself, ask yourself to help you decide. You are asking your subconscious, the part of the brain that is working “under the radar”, to evaluate your situation and come up with a desirable choice of action.

I am not alone
You can never ever, ever be completely alone, because you always have your “self”. Your “self” is your most powerful ally, and your self will never leave you. You can shape and train your self to be whoever you want.

It doesnt matter if a hundred, a thousand, or a million people have not accomplished what you dream of doing, they are not you. They have completely different lives, experiences, thoughts, and actions. Their shortcomings have no bearing on you, because this is your life, your story, your journey. Their story is done, yours is still being written. And you are the writer. You.

You affect everything around you, your worry increases reality of that worry.
You’re knowledge that everything is turning out great, so it is done

Your perspective is one of your most powerful tools. Your perspective greatly influences your thoughts and actions towards something
Person A says “I cant jump this wall”
Person A Will not even try
Person B says “This wall is pretty damn tall, I might be able to jump it”
Person B Will try a few times
Person C says “I know I can jump this wall.”
Person C Will try until reaches success

It’s not the one drink itself I fear. It’s the thought that one drink will be alright. It wont.
The thought that everything is ok now, and one drink is achievable. This is the deceit, the step into a hole that could be a puddle or a step off a skyscraper.

I Trust.
Under me, there is granite. Solid, ground.
No matter the turbulence of the storm, there is ground under me.
I must trust, so that I may stand.
If I must weather the challenges, I trust they are necessary for me to accomplish and complete the righteous goal.
I Trust.
