Just Make It Better

I love him like the way people love cookies or Pixar. There’s just something about Seth.

Whenever I read his books, blog or watch a talk I feel fuzzy inside. It doesn’t matter if the topic is relevant or not, he always gets me inspired. I admire him in a way typically reserved for activists and world changers.

I would love to be his friend. Grateful having earned just to be in his presence.

I’d likely die from humility.

Then one day I realized I already have Seth. (We all can, really.)

Amazing is a state of being that is not easily achieved. Socrates and a few other (actually) extraordinary people sum-mated that a man of true intelligence is one that can recognize his own ignorance. The way personal development and self-help go on we should all be world leaders and millionaires. Realistically not everyone will do anything special in their life.

Critical thinking.

I know this guy. He wants to be a writer. Yea he’s good at it. He recently got accepted to Columbia grad school because he’s so good at it. Who knows he may be the next Jack Kerouac.

Check out his blog and comment too. (He’s unsure of his talent, nurture him with comments.)

Yet he, like many, looks into the future for validation. It’s like the blogger who has thirty visitors, wanting a hundred. Then when getting one hundred, wanting five hundred. And so on.

We must believe we are exactly what we want before we can become what is we wish to be.

I’ve been feeling a bit unmotivated lately.

Sometimes, I lose the pep in my step. More often than that, I get anxious about whatever so-called plateau I’ve created for myself.

It feels like I am in all three right now. I’ve been working on waking up my internal cheerleader, but she’s become a lazy bitch. So I’m resorting to bragging on my blog.

Now, what does this do for you?

I mean, that is the reason I do this whole blogging thing. (So my obsession with making this world a better place can help others learn from my life and avoid these debacles – in case you weren’t sure.)
