It was Alexis Carrel, who said

“Man cannot remake himself without suffering,

For he is both

The marble

&

The Sculptor”

Think about this and think fucking hard

It is amazing that inside each of us is that very requirement to make the change we want for ourselves

It’s there

Right fucking there

YOU are the most powerful being in YOUR life

But only through suffering it says,

only through that forging of qualities and habits of who we want to become

under stress

under pressure

extreme fucking pressure

that we can sculpt who it is we want to become

It’s Tom Bilyeu who says,

“If who you want to be, and what you want to carry requires strong shoulders, those shoulders are there for you to..

.. build”

You must not only allow yourself to do hard things

You must not only push beyond comfortability

But take in that effort and be mindful of the change that’s happening

and that’s where

work meets intention

and intention meets realization

and realization meets results

and results meet fulfillment.

Because the thing that blows my mind is that ITS IN YOU

IT IS YOU

Nothing outside of yourself will be the thing that changes you

No compliment nor discouragement will be the thing that stops you

It only matters

what you do to you

YOU have to strike that marble, that is ultimately you

YOU must get yourself to do it

And lastly your results don’t know of any compliment or insult,

any prize or praise,

any worry or anxiety

Your results only respond to what you get yourself to DO

The marble only cracks to the chisel, which is held by..

YOU
