Big Sean: 5 Ways to Get Unstuck From Where You Are Now (Simple Strategies to Eliminate Endless Hours of Work)

You know, if you were satisfied with where you're at, then that just is what it is. And, you know, you probably wouldn't even be depressed. But because you are, because you feel a certain way or like you're not all the way there, that is just confirmation that you are truly, truly meant for more or something different.

So to me, I think that when you recognize, okay, once you start recognizing things of that nature, you can say, okay, what's the first step of getting out of this? And so that's part of the book. I say, accepting where you are. That doesn't mean you have to like... You have to like stay there.

That just means accepting the blessings and all the things that come along with where you are to open up space for more. And you're letting go of all the baggage that is holding and weighing you down. I used to be like that. I used to be like, when things don't go my way, I'm terrible. oh, this doesn't happen the way I wanted it to or the way I saw it, my whole mood is shot.

I'm not to say that things don't affect me when they don't go my way, but I have the armor on now. I know how to deal with it. I know how to get over it and get back to it. That's how a lot of my heroes deal with things too. When you think of Denzel Washington, say he has a new movie out, Say the movie does amazing and it's incredible and he wins an Oscar.

Say the movie comes out and it bombs or doesn't do as well. He's not going to give up and quit. It's not going to ruin his life. He's going to move on to the next thing and use that to the power of separation. I mean, you know, that's a real thing.

Go on. I know you got a chance to talk to Kobe before and I've actually got a chance to talk to him as well. And he's incredible and his mindset was something that I admired so much. And I got a chance to talk to him literally a few months before he passed and And he was just telling me about how he meditates and what it does for him, right? And I just resonated with that so much.

It's really cool because we all are reflections of each other, not just me and you or whoever. It's like everyone that's in your vicinity, in your environment is a reflection of you or a part of you, even if you like them or don't like them. You know, and it's something to recognize that we are all interconnected after you go down to the layers of it, right?
