if i've learned anything, it's that the moment your inner voice starts begging you to stop, and every distraction starts whispering your name, is the moment progress begins; the only question is whether you have the courage to endure.
I recommend enduring discomfort.

In a weird way, everybody is rooting for you. When you go to a job interview, the interviewer wants you to be amazing so they don’t have to look anymore. when you go on a date, the person wants to have an amazing date with you. If you make a piece of content, people want to see amazing pieces of content and they have no problem if it’s yours. the instant you get into the mindset that people want you to do well, your entire world gets better. And you’ll be shocked to know this pattern keeps repeating in different areas of life.
Hit me with the harshest reality truth.

In film credits, the difference between “&” and “and” is more significant than it looks. If two screenwriters’ names are joined by “&”, they wrote the screenplay together, collaborating on the same draft. For example: Written by Jane Smith & John Dave. This means they worked together as a team to develop and write the screenplay. If their names are separated by “and”, it means one writer worked on the script first, and another came in later to revise or rewrite it. For example: Written by Jane Smith and John Dave. This means Jane worked on the screenplay first, and John came in later to revise or rewrite it. They contributed separately at different stages rather than working together as a team.
What’s something you recently learned that completely changed how you see things???

I do these “performance review” conversations with my daughter so she knows she can always come to me with things she would like me to change. Right now it’s mostly silly, childish things like not turning the lights if she’s still in a room. But I know in the future, it will be more serious things as she continues to grow up.
Out to breakfast with Poppyseed and getting my annual performance review from her. Y’all pray for me. ☺️

you sit there, hiding under the blanket of procrastination, terrified reality won't honour your expectations, forgetting it's a far greater sin to be a coward than a failure
as some wise person on Twitter once said, via Helen DeWitt: "procrastination is how you preserve the fantasy of your potential"

Dr. Jung once told me that any man who comes into your consulting room will either be 21 or 45 years of age no matter his chronological age because his problems will be that he can't get into life or can't get out of life. Those are the only 2 problems a man ever has.~RA Johnson

At just 7 YEARS OLD, K2 was flying an airplane and confidently communicating with AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL! I’ve always believed that one of the greatest gifts we can give our children is EXPOSURE. They can’t dream about opportunities they don’t even know exist! A special thank you to his flight instructor, Marlos Davis, for the incredible teaching, patience, and guidance he’s been giving K2! Expose your children to the world. You never know what they’ll discover they’re capable of!

Most don't realize how much more younger generations are staying married and being active in their children's lives.
The factoid that '50% of marriages end in divorce' was kinda true decades ago. But the divorce rate peaked in 1980. Now, less than 40% of all marriages since 2000 end in divorce. For college graduates, it's under 30%. For college graduates who get married after age 25, and who don't have any kids before marriage, it's under 20%. Anybody promoting the outdated, deceptive 50% rate has some kind of anti-marriage or anti-natalist agenda. It scares young people away from getting married and having kids. That is their goal.
