What are the consequences of inaction?
What you're not changing, you are choosing. In other words, nothing happening or quote unquote, the same is a decision. We just don't think of it that way. And this is an idea that was shared with me under one of my recent YouTube videos by username Night Owl. So dude, love the name and appreciate the sharing of the quote here. And I think it's incredibly pertinent.
Why is time considered our most precious commodity?
You know, I talk a lot about the finitude of life, how time is our most precious commodity because each second that ticks off the clock, is the only thing you can't get back, right? You can always reacquire money in these tangible things. Time is, you know, once that elapses, it's forever gone. So it makes sense that we ask, well, how do we maximize it? How do we make the most of it? And I wonder this, I want to pose a question. When was the last time you were disappointed with your day? Not because you did something, but because it was underwhelming, because it felt like that sort of cyclical 24 hours. You didn't make any steps towards your goals. You know, you didn't feel like you made progress. It was just more of the mundane. And you thought to yourself, I allowed this.
You know, when was the last time you were somewhere you didn't want to be or around people who didn't let you up, didn't energize you, they're not conducive to your wellbeing, and you thought, I chose this. A lot of times we just assume we have to do these things because it's life and it's outside of our control. The vast majority of the time, that's simply not the case.
How can we take ownership of our choices?
And when we take extreme ownership of everything, when we realize that anything happening in the status quo is because we are green lighting it, we're allowing it to take place, that empowers us. And if you think of your life as an arena, It takes you from the stands as an observer, oh look, here are things happening to me in my life, and puts you on the floor, on the court, on the stage, however you wanna think about it in your brain. It gives you the ability to change outcomes. And that's what we all have. We all have that power. We just have to get past this notion that things are the way they are. It's like, no, if you don't like what's around you, if you're looking to your left and your right and you're disappointed or it's not enough or it's not aligned with you, guess whose fault that is? Yours. And guess why that's beautiful? Now you can change it. I want to share a story. This is something I recently came across. A TikTok video. And...
Before I kind of dig into it a little bit, I'm just going to say I actually really like the creator. I think he's a funny dude, entertains his audience, seems like a good guy, all that stuff. But the one thing that he does from time to time that drives me crazy is bitch about how hard things are for millennials. Homes are so expensive. Jobs simply don't pay enough. It's way too difficult to meet people. Boomers had it so much easier. You know, it's like the same song and dance. And he gets thousands and thousands of people to join him in what I think is best described as a community temper tantrum, right? Everyone kind of claps along like baby seals talking about how hard life is. And it's like, look, Two things can be true at once, and often are.
Statistically, he is not wrong, okay? It's way harder to own a house now than it was 60 years ago. Both statistical and anecdotal evidence is gonna support this. But I can't help but ask, what are you getting from whining? How is anything better? Anything, name one thing that that improves, right?
What mindset should we adopt to overcome challenges?
If anything, you're taking steps backwards because you're creating this narrative in your brain that life is working against you, that everything is an uphill battle and there's nothing so dangerous as a poor me mindset. And so that got me wondering, you know, how different would my life be if seven years ago, when I was broke, writing speeches in my boxers, practicing speaking, you know, to the wall. If I spent time every day convincing myself that I was sentenced to a life of misery because I'm not a boomer, right? Imagine if I spent more time whining than building or looking for reasons that life is stacked against me, like everything would just be exponentially different. And as I'm speaking this,
