When life looks bleak…

Just. Keep. Going.

In your darkest moments, your darkest hour, your darkest second, close your eyes, take a deep breath, (in through your nose, raising your shoulders up, exhale through your mouth), open your eyes and realize you are still here, with good health, for most of us, all your limbs, your mental faculties.

Now, pull yourself together and just start moving. Take the smallest next step.

Think about your immediate course of action to get yourself out of this hole.

And execute on that.

No thinking. Get out of your f*cking head and take the smallest action.

Now, guess what? You’re moving.

With your new found momentum, you take massive fast imperfect action.

Iterate fast.

Think, be resourceful. Zoom out, 30,000 feet and think strategically of how to solve your problem.

Who do you need to call? What resources do you have readily available? Who can you serve?

Life gives to the giver. Life is a dance. Life will unbearably hard at times, but if we have built up the habit of doing hard things, we will have the strength (mentally, emotionally, spiritually, physically)) to handle it.

That’s it for today.

Now go forth and take the smallest action step toward pulling yourself out of this darkness.

I am here for you and praying for you on your heroe’s journey.
