Turn Fear Into Fuel
Fear can become fuel for decisive action.
This is what people don't understand, you just need a bastard.
Sometimes that bastard is you and only you.
So when you realize in the deepest part of your heart that you have more inside of you, but you choose not to find it, you choose to sacrifice your life for someone, that is your responsibility.
I think fear is related to this conviction of trust in my decisions.
What have you learned about how to deal with and overcome fear? Go.
Go.
I use a special type of motivation.
It's called, go to hell.
Yes, go to hell.
To all the teachers at school who said that you couldn't get anywhere.
I'm going to show you whatever you have inside of you.
Anger, negative emotions.
Use it all.
Use it all like fire.
And it's like a form of domination over yourself.
And if you fall, and you're probably going to fall, you just get up again.
Okay.
And...
Once you get up from being thrown in the ditch, whatever your ditch, for months, weeks or years, when you get up, that doesn't mean you'll never fall again.
What it means is that you got up once, it means that you can get up the next time, and the next time, and the next time, and you keep getting up until you don't fall anymore.
The purpose is something different.
The purpose is what keeps you in motion when the plan finds an obstacle, deviates or collapses completely.
And I promise you, one of those things is going to happen if not all three.
Maybe not today, maybe not this year, but the plan you have in your head right now, that so orderly trajectory from here to there, is going to come across something unexpected.
And it will have to be rewritten.
