LET IT ALL GO!

So yesterday is was about letting her go.

This morning I gave it some more thought, and this came to me:
WHY NOT LET EVERYTHING GO?

Now as I write this blog, I’m mentally taking stock of all the things I’ve been wasting my resources on. Things, activities, relationships with people that drain you more than support you,
The sad thing is, we hear our friends talking about doing this,
retweet tweets about not giving a sh!t
shared and like Facebook pics about letting go
And lord knows how many tumblr quotes has resonated with your very being, yet no action is taken on your part.

And now I just realize that majority of people, don’t really take action, until it becomes so unbearable, it forces us to take action (I wish I was the type to just learn from other people mistakes and avoid crap all together). In other words some of us won’t be able to let go, of the things that don’t serve us, until it becomes unbearable. For those of you out there like me, I hope you realize this and start letting go sooner than later.

Some tips:
1. Take stock of the things you want in your life that will make you and those in your life happy.

2. Take stock of the things you have that will GET you the things you want in your life.

3. Take stock of the things you currently have in your life, that WILL NOT help you get what you want
(whatever you have at step three… TOSS IT TO THE CURB, TORCH IT, DROP IT, whatever lose it. You need space for 4)

4. Take stock of all the things you DON’T have that you will need to get you where you want to be, and go get them.

Life is short, in everything we gain experience, but let us for the sake of ourselves, learn from the screw up of other people.
Care freely, but carefully.

Let Her Go...

“Go for women you perceive to be ‘out of your league.’ You’ll surprise yourself. 

This is a tip from a list of 45 Ultimate tips for men. And I can attest to this, win or lose, you gain a lot from doing this. In my case I learned to let go.
There comes a point in a man’s life when he falls for that girl he can’t get, no matter how good he is, no matter his approach, even if you thought you were going to win, somehow you screwed it up,
you can’t get near, her walls are up, but you stay on the other side.
Create illusions of fancy in your head,
you date her in your mind,
she still talks to you (in the friend zone) and you’re all too happy to eat it up…. Well guess what.

You have wasted, and if you are still on that train, hoping things will change, I’ll strongly advise you to bail, post haste, and take all the cuts and bruises that come along with jumping off a moving train, for your chances of survival are greater, than it would be when you hit the dead end.

A couple weeks ago I bailed that train, I got some cuts and bruises, but I healed up quite well, and now I’m stronger than ever, wiser, and I’m actually thankful for that train ride, for now I’m able to see the big picture, and to be honest… the train I was on wasn't all that It was hyped up to be.

I was more in love with the idea of what could be, and paralyzed by the fear of what it would be like without.  

Seriously gentlemen, in most cases that’s all there is, a pretty face, a captivating personality, with a nice body you pour your ideals into, without realizing she’s not yours and she runs away, and you give chase…  Just let her go….. Let her go…. Let her go (sing it like the ice princess of frozen.)

If you are in such situation, take a step back, waaaaay back, delete her number, turn off her chat on Facebook, unfollow, whatever, just take some time away, to look at the big picture, and ask yourself, is this what I want, Is this really worth it… Let me know

As far as I see it, never put all your eggs in one basket. You are young, there are a lot of ideal women out there for you, losing one won’t kill you, It merely teaches you.

Being Assertive!

Assertion, this is probably one of my biggest problem, whether you’re laid back like me, or weak willed, passive, there comes a point in your life when is enough. This point came for me when I realized that to be the man I want to be, taking shit and standing up for yourself is a huge negative!

So jump on the assertive train, and for some it may not be easy, but start small, the easiest way for me was to use this little two letter word (NO) ß This right here, is a powerful weapon that can free you from a lot of things.

Ever been over worked with a lot on your plate and that friend comes to you asking you a favor, but you have too much on you plate, and give them that favor and it breaks the plate….

GUESS WHAT? Saying no saves your plate! And you may probably feel bad at turning down your friend but look at it this way. Would a real friend get mad if you say no? I don’t think so. And what good are you to your friends if you are broken to bits? Think about it.

And asserting yourself doesn't mean being a d!ck please note.
