WHAT IF YOU CAN? | Powerful Motivational Speeches for Success
10 Mar 2025
Life has a way of surrounding us with uncertainty, much like the hazy sky that once obscured the mountains in Scottsdale. In those moments, it’s easy to feel lost, frustrated, or stuck, but the truth is, clarity still exists—it’s just hidden for now. The unknown isn’t here to break you; it’s here to challenge you, to see if you’ll keep moving forward despite not having all the answers.When life’s fog sets in, you have two choices: resist what you can’t control or trust that beyond the haze, the path is still there. The key is to keep walking, to believe in what you cannot yet see. Little by little, the shapes of your next chapter will emerge, and what once felt overwhelming will become just another obstacle you moved through on your way to something greater.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact#liveinspired #yourworldwithin #motivation
Full Episode
Staring off into the distance and saw something that, at least from what I understand, is pretty rare in the Scottsdale area. The sky was so hazy that you could barely see the mountains. A blanket around the infinity that I was so used to staring out at. And what do I know for sure as I gaze into the distance? Well, first and foremost, this immersion into chaos is temporary.
Because behind that curtain of fog, there exists clarity. There lives the pristine, there is calm. Just tucked away for the moment. And this haze, it's not confined to the mountains of Scottsdale. In fact, this is the very same haze life has a tendency to drop us directly into the epicenter of the unknown.
And here's the thing, when life presents us with this haze, we can be angry, but it won't care. We can scream and complain and project out, but it'll pay no mind. Our emotions and the motives of the haze that surround us are mutually exclusive. The only way to win here
is to know that clarity exists behind the curtain, and like a guided missile, walk through the mist until the little shapes start materializing into the recognizable, into everyday life. See, some games are not chess. They're not complex. They are simple. They're about carrying on or not carrying on. Resilience and that is all.
Will you commit to hanging in long enough to capture the skyline that has gifted you peace so many days prior to today? It's not a weather question. or a haze question, or a visibility question. It is a you question. And you get to choose how you'll answer it. Easy, you might think. No, sometimes putting one foot in front of the other is the hardest thing.
Shaking hands with the unknown is a taxing thing. It's a courageous thing. But sometimes it is also the only thing. You have to know that right now, no, there is no validation, but I will find some. And sure, there's no road mapped out before me, but I'll blaze my own. And sure, I don't have answers, but the past has proven to me that I can collect them along the way.
And what you'll find is that haze, that very cause for discomfort, ends up being an ally. because through it, we affirm to ourselves that clarity is there and we are beyond capable of capturing it. That when things are their worst, we have the ability to rise to the occasion. That when we don't know, we become manufacturers of solutions.
Forgetting what you want is not a story of navigating paved roads. It's about stepping into the brush and finding a way. Step by step, breath by breath, heartbeat by heartbeat. And so while the temptation may be to look around right now and say, I don't know how this story ends. I don't know how to handle this turbulence.
Therefore, problem, I invite you to use the unknown, the haze, the chaos, the turbulence as a portal to reality as you see fit. And I invite you through this quote unquote fog of war to begin again. To rediscover a life well lived. Because not only is it possible, it's who you are. Sometimes we convince ourselves that right now isn't quite right. It's not the wrong time necessarily, but soon.
