Prove It.. To Your Fucking Self
I’m always proving to myself
I always have something to prove
Not to you
To me
And I have high fucking standards to who I can be right now and that’s the best I can ask for, right now
Now this doesn’t work if I’m “battling myself” and I carry low standards
I must recognize there’s better than me
I must recognize there is a score card
There is competition
You saying “there’s no competition” is a shield
to make yourself feel better about yourself right now,
and when you know you’re not executing at your best potential or acting outside of yourself,
you keep saying there’s no competition,
to make sure you keep your competition against yourself, to then win, and to feel “good”
You’re cheating yourself out of results you should be receiving,
by carrying low standards for yourself
Aim fucking high,
raise yourself to a new level,
and guess what,
there’s fucking competition,
but you can choose who you compete against.
And when you make yourself your biggest competitor,
or raise the bar for you to jump to,
you’ll surprise your fucking self.
And I’ve mentioned before,
Tom Bilyeu defines success as
“How you feel about yourself,
when you’re by yourself”
and that’s what I believe to be truth,
so I raise my bar,
demand more,
in HOPES that when I lay my head down,
My body and spirit,
marred by dust and blood,
will have no question of wether or not I defeated my damn self
