Want to lose more friends and offend people? Start a business…
When I started talking about leaving my 9-5 job among my friends and family, they perceived it as suicide.
Notably, the relationships with co-workers.
It’s like watching an episode of Intervention.
They’d say “Hey man, we want to talk to you…”
Brutal conversation to the new Arnold.
Lifting my droopy head and think… “They’re angry… depressed… distracted.”
Nobody was cheering me on, except my parents and girlfriend.
The thought of a job with hazardous climate conditions and abusive sleep habits took its toll.
I no longer chose to numb out on the weekend with bud light and Doritos.
My choice to show “change” was like a fast-spreading infection killing newborn babies.
95% of my friends and family came out with an ax and torch and demanded my “changes” to stop immediately!
But how could I?
I’m exposed to the truth! Failure is an opportunity!
A shocking amount of people refuse to change. They would rather scream louder about the problem.
Weird stuff happens when I stopped sipping kool-aid. Thankful for the Muse from above, graciously injecting my soul with truth serum.
I sobered up, and finally saw the real meaning of attraction.
The last 6 letters of attraction are ACTION.
Which leads to clarity.
Action and focus hold hands – Motivated and clear.
If a roughed-up ex-coal miner can take action, anyone can take action towards their dreams.
More Twitter journeys I find useful for big gains:
