"My foundations solid let's take flight" - Nipsey Hustle
The foundations. Holding the standard.
You did all this work, you finally started to see the blessings life has to offer. You made it! life is good! You take your foot off the gas, you skip a day here and there. One cheat meal won’t hurt, I’ll train tomorrow, my practices can wait. You think your elevated energy now means that you’re too good to continue the things that brought you here in the first place. So why do them? I can do other stuff…
Day by day the feeling goes. Life starts to seem less joyful and it’s meaning slips. Suddenly your back in the place you swore you would never return. How?
The little things.
You stopped doing the little things that got you to that point. Non of it is luck, it’s manufactured momentum that you build up over time. You win enough small things and eventually you’ll win something big. You take care of the small things and it’s just a matter of time before you’re feeling good. Before you’ve proven to yourself that life is good and you start to believe it. Before your energetic state rises to a new baseline, to where your lows are now longer as low. You still have them. But they are moments, short lived. Because even during those lows, you take care of the small things. You get what you need to get done, done.
Your own momentum, health, wellbeing and foundations are the most important thing in your life. You don’t take care of those, good luck offering your half full cup to another. Good luck being there for your family when they need you. Good luck helping others that really fucking need it. Good luck being happy.
It’s your responsibility to look after yourself, no one is coming to save you. And even if someone did, you have to walk the path. You have to do the things you KNOW you need to do. You have to walk yourself through hell, across the fire, though the pain to eventually see the light. No one but you.
Our society we are taught to give our power away. These pills, this vaccine, those prescriptions everything is outsourced. But the source is you. It is within you. Nothing outside of you can change anything. This is the reality of life on earth as a human. Either accept it and start empowering yourself.
Or deny your humanity and suffer.
The choice is yours.
Now choose… play the game. The human game. For it is the only thing that has any hope at being real.
Have faith, show up, do the things, build your own life force and show the fuck up for yourself. Or die trying.
"A house can only brave a storm if the foundations are solid." Me.
A hectic one this week I know, but it's true.
Much love x
