Life is not always easy and I dare to say it’s never easy. Something is going to go wrong so be grateful everyday something doesn’t go wrong. It’s in these moments when things go wrong we see who people really are. When we get kicked to the curb, who gets up and who stays down. How fast can you recover from something? Staying down can make a bad situation much worse than to taking things as they come. Know that this is not your last hardship. Know that things can get worse. Know that life is hard. Know these things and also know to be grateful when things are going your way.

noiz viol8ion blog #434 – Favorite Excuses
Everyone wants something but there is an obstacle keeping us from getting it. We tell ourselves the same things over and over as to why we can’t have the things we want. If it’s a new car we say we can’t afford it or it’s too expensive. If it’s dating we say the person is too attractive or we are too ugly. If it’s an activity we say we’re too old or too fat. If it’s a job or passion we say that we not good enough.
For everything we want there are millions of excuses out there that we use. You keep telling yourself the same excuses and now believe the excuse. I challenge you to create new excuses for why you can do something not why you can’t.

noiz viol8ion blog #433 – Imagine
Imagine is a powerful word. Just saying the word brings so many images, colors and sounds to the mind. Imagining releases the powers of the mind that you have kept trapped for fear of what you will see. The darkness that may come to surface that you have been intentionally oppressing your whole life. Unbeknownst to you this also oppresses the light. There is no light without darkness and darkness without light.
You have the ability to control this infinitely powerful tool called the mind. Don’t be scared to use it. Its designed to imagine the worst possible scenarios to keep you alive. You can also use it to imagine the best possible ones to make you happy.

noiz viol8ion blog #432 – Sitting in Silence
One of the hardest things to do for me is to sit in silence. As soon as it gets silent I am looking for the easiest distraction. My distraction of choice lately has been my phone. Growing up it used to be video games, cartoons and playing sports. Maybe this is why I was never a fan of school because we were told to sit there and be quiet. I needed something to keep be engaged and learning about proper grammar was not it. That is why it is ironic that I find myself a blogger. When it comes to writing the blogs I look for distractions to get me out of it. I come up with excuses why I shouldn’t do it. I am not good enough. What if someone judges me. There are endless reasons why I shouldn’t do it but only one reason why I should. I want to.

noiz viol8ion blog #431 – Progress Over Perfection
I made a commitment to myself that I will value progress over perfection. I did this because for a long time I valued perfection and noticed I was not going anywhere. I was not happy because ultimately nothing was perfect especially me. When the standard is is unattainable then you will fail every time. When the standard is to get just a little bit better then it is easier to win.

noiz viol8ion blog #430 – The Process
Step outside of yourself and imaging looking down on yourself. See the timeline of where you started, where you are now and where you want to go. Right now you are not where you want to be. The only way to get to where you want to be is to adopt a proven process that gets you the results you want. You must trust the process and the process will take you to new heights you never thought were imaginable.

noiz viol8ion blog #429 – Your Commitments
Go down your list of commitments (comment your top one below).
Commit to being a good person. Commit to being happy. Commit to being a good son or daughter. Commit to having better relationships. Commit to your job and craft. Commit to living a healthy lifestyle. Commit to being the best you.
Something amazing happens when a commitment is made. It cuts off any other possibility. You no longer give yourself the option of doing the opposite. It may not be easy but you know what they ultimate goal is. Of course mistakes will be made but how fast will you re-commit yourself.

noiz viol8ion blog #428 – Possessions Own You
The more you own, the more you have to take care of. Keep life simple by only owning what you need. As you get older things start accumulating and unless you get rid of the old there will be no room for the new.

noiz viol8ion blog #425 – Your Identity
We are constantly building our identity. We look at things and say “I” like that. We do things and say “I” did that. We say things and say “I” said that.
It’s is a never ending journey finding out who “I” is.
This is why we join groups because they have the same beliefs that “I” do.
This is why we buy certain brands over other because “I” like it better.
“I” is evolving and is not static. Keep finding your self while not restring yourself to an old “I”.
