Becoming Better, Together

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had this dream of changing the world.

But I had no idea how, let alone what I wanted to do with my life.

So I tried different things.

I worked at Google, I backpacked for lengths at a time, I launched my own online business…

And yet, I never felt truly at peace.

Until I came across the words of the ever-so-eloquent Rumi:

“Yesterday I was clever so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise so I am changing myself.”

And I realized this:

All the change that I seek in my life begins with me.

And I can say the same to you:

All the change that you seek in your life begins with you.

You have the power to crush your fears, doubts, and the harmful habits that are holding you back from reaching your full potential.

You have the power to follow your calling, make a positive impact and become a better human in the process of doing so.

But do you know what’s standing between you and your dreams?

It’s you.

Not time, not money, not luck—you.

And do you know why?

Because we are our own worst enemies.

You are your greatest obstacle.

There’s always that little voice inside our heads that stops us from pursuing change.

That voice is you telling yourself “I’m not good enough” or “it’s not the right time” or “I’ll do it later”.

Even worse: “That’s just the way it is.”

No!

Those are just excuses we tell ourselves—and excuses are fabricated illusions.

We create them to rationalize our behaviours when we’re too afraid to go after what we really want.

Look—time is precious and your life story matters.

We all want to live fully; but fullness in life doesn’t come from wishful thinking, it comes from actively following our calling.

(Keyword: actively).

And if you want to find that calling, or the courage to chase it, you need to become more self-aware, build a mindset of steel, and develop mindful habits that boost your productivity.

In short, you need to be better.

You need to transform your thinking and playing field from that of an amateur to a pro.

And you can only do so once you learn how to look inward, master your mind, and change the way you think.

And that’s why I write.

I write to show you all the beauty that exists within you and the world around you.

I write to help you become your best self and inspire you to live a life that’s true to you.

Living your truth doesn’t mean quitting your job to start a company or travel the world. It simply means leading an inspired life, where you live it on your own terms, do what you love, create positive impact, and become 1% better everyday.

That’s how we can become better, together.

And that’s how by changing ourselves, we can also change the world, together.

And my question to you is this: Do you want to be better?
