"Lead will play its role until the world has no further need for lead; and then lead will have to turn itself into gold. That's what Alchemists do. They show that, when we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too." - The Alchemist

Imposter syndrome can be crippling, but most people need to learn that they're qualified because of the struggles, setbacks, and past; not weaked by it. Clip from episode 157 of the Gray Area Podcast with Vetlife owner/founder Josh Parish.

Josh Parisian didn't start out as a champion or someone who everyone believed would be in the UFC one day. In fact he was often failing or losing in the gym repeatedly while working to accomplish his goals. In the beginning it was simple he was as a man with a dream.

Past experiences give you a scope/lens through which you view the world while searching for objective truth & the proper pathway forward. The goal should be to figure out how our lens has been distorted by us or the world, so that we can fix those perceptions, opinions, beliefs

I had a long conversation today about how crucial the truth is for putting your life in order, obtaining your goals, fixing your perspectives, helping others, solving problems, and more. With that being said, here's a clip from episode 154 with Paul Gipson

UFC Gear day DID NOT DISAPPOINT. This is the best set of gear we've ever gotten. Shout out to the UFC, Venum, and Under Armour.

I teach my youth students in Jiu Jitsu : You can't turn and run when someone has taken your back. You need to face & fight the problem or it is going to strangle you. The same is true for life. You need to look into the darkest/worst parts of yourself to set yourself free.

The way out of suffering is through it. The way out of hell is through hell. Don't let pain disfigure you. Heros in life are people who can endure immense pain & suffering, yet still desire to do right by themselves and others. Be a hero or at least try your best. ✊️

Be willing to fight the battles that are necessary to become the person you wish to be. You'll find the feelings you're wanting now, waiting for you on the other side of conquering those battles. Don't seek peace while there are battles to be fought all throughout your life.

Limiting Beliefs are often invisible to the person holding on to them. You were raised in a rough situation? If you're not careful, you'll expect it to be your destiny. What the author wrote in chapter 1 doesn't determine how the story must end. Write a story worth reading.

Zoe Nowicki is a winner. But why? What is the mindset that drives her success? When we last sat down to Podcast, I asked her the question, "Why are you the woman that sits here today." Her response ---> * I'm just going to do the best I can do
