🌟THE PROTAGONIST SHEET: How To Turn Your Life Into A Movie & Live In Alignment With Your Highest Self
Welcome! Check this out: every movie ever created followed a script. All movies are different. Some movies are scary. Some movies are sad. Some movies are inspiring! What determines the genre of the movie? The script. The script was written by the director! If you want to change your scary movie into a comedy, change the script! Of course, you need to first get clear on what movie you want to create & adjust accordingly.
This is the same concept with our lives.
Your life is a movie & your the director. Exciting right! Yessir! I see lots of people every day live the life of a sad movie. They follow a script that makes them feel sad and the worse part is that they don't even know it! It's unconscious! There was never a moment to plan their life. School unfortunately never taught us this. Our parents couldn't either. There was no way we could've learned this by ourselves. And you know what? It's time for a change in the system.
You know how it feels to start your day feeling great & energized but by the time the day ends, you feel drained. Why is this the case even though in some cases we've been told what to do in the past yet don't do it? My answer? We forget. That's the true root cause! It's no longer ignorance since we're now aware of what to do. In movies, the actors remember their lines because they have them written down in a script. They are surrounded by others who also have scripts & ARE FORCED TO READ THE SCRIPT otherwise they would get fired. Not only that but the environment is set up for success too. They start & end in the same location of the day.
No forgetting. No loss of movie vision. Nada.
Now that's a great system in place. If you're like me, you also know success leaves clues, so it's important we do our due diligence & model the movie process with our own lives so we can treat OUR LIVES as an inspiring movie! So, my friend, it's now time to set up our system in place to REMEMBER our true greatness so we can start the day off running! That system is called the protagonist sheet! Lets' dive in!
Let's start with the how...
We are simultaneously The Actor AND The Director here. But there's a catch. The actor you is the lowercase YOU & the director you is the uppercase you. What does this mean? Here's how I view it: The director is the infinite self in all of us. Everyone has a different name for this almighty being, some people call it the universe, god, the tao, the soul, infinity, etc. every single culture around the world has a different label for this and they're all great! Pick and choose your favorite! I personally call it infinity so let's stick with this label for this example. Infinity has already created the movie & directed it. We at the human level don't know what infinity has in store for us but we know it's for the best since it's the almighty self ("God's plan" -Drake). For this you process, we'll have to put on our directors hat, listen to your intuition, & create the script for your lowercase you to follow daily!
Are you ready to get started creating your 1 page protagonist sheet? Let's go!
There are 6 sections to structuring your 1-page protagonist sheet:
(Top Part - The Future (Optional)
- PINNACLE DESCRIPTION
- OPTIMISM
- PINNACLE VISION
(Bottom Part - The Present (Optional)
- WAY OF BEING
- DAILY HABITS
- ENCOURAGEMENT
You can also change the colors to whatever you prefer! In the past, I chose green to match my environment since I placed it near all my plants. Now, I'm currently experimenting with picking a color that goes with each season of the year. When It's autumn, I pick orange. When it's summer, I pick blue. When it's winter I pick either black or white. Etc. This is all personal preference! You do you!
Let's go through each section & help you assemble yours today!
Top Row - The Clouds & Future
PINNACLE VISION & DESCRIPTION
We must start with the end in mind. This is why we're starting with the pinnacle vision for your life. So ask yourself a couple of keystone questions:
- What's the pinnacle of your life look like?
- How do you physically look like?
- What major accomplishments do you have?
- What's the ultimate version of yourself daily lifestyle look like ? (Do you have a family? 10/10 attractive partner? Billions of dollars in your bank account? How will the size and scale of your company look like? etc)
Let your ego set the ambition then let go of the steering wheel. Right now it's time to let your ego run wild and think up its ambitious dreams so you can get gassed up with a purpose for life.
For your pinnacle description, you want to DESCRIBE your pinnacle vision in detail
Here I like to include:
- 1 SENTENCE DESCRIPTION OF WHO I AM AT MY PEAK - My example is "I am Elvis Posimistic and I am a 6'3", 200lbs, One of a kind, testosterone pumping, storytelling, problem-solving, socially charming, enlightened billionaire, smooth protagonist who can make anything happen!
- PINNACLE ACCOMPLISHMENTS - List out the major accomplishments you've made at your peak! No room for the ego's negative self-doubt talk here. If you imagine it, write it down.
- STANDARDS - List out the standards your highest version is following. What do they allow in their life? What won't they allow?
- DAILY/WEEKLY ACTIONS - Here you can list out the actions your highest version is doing on a daily/weekly/monthly/yearly basis. Things like "Deep works for 4 hours daily!" or "Dopamine Fasts +12hrs daily!" These are those positive activities you know you should do. Listing them under pinnacle description gives your current self peace knowing you aren't pressured to do these right away. Only when the time is right & you're ready.
- EXTRAS - You can also add more points in your protagonist sheet that you vibe with. I used to have "Mindset" and underneath I listed Systems, Leverage, Intentional, Abundance, Minimalism, Authority Doctor, & Empowering Assumptions. I've since removed that since I naturally started incorporating those into my life.
Once finished with the above questions, bring out your design skills and make it a reality! Photoshop yourself into this new frame with your pinnacle accomplishments so that it can all fit in this corner of the page. You can write the pinnacle description in another corner of your page or combine your description & vision together like my example above.
OPTIMISM
Here you can list out things that make you optimistic for the future!
You can list your goals if you still set them. Intentions maybe? All up to you!
I use this section to list out the accomplishments that I will inevitably hit with my business journey & lifestyle.
Like 1,000 Posimistic Letter subscribers, +$100k Design projects, Create Music, Learned the Drums & Guitar, Neck 18 inches, etc.
Bottom row - the here and now (the dirt)
DAILY HABITS
What are the daily habits you need to do daily to get closer to your pinnacle version of yourself?
If you're following a program, like 75Hard for example, you can list out those habits here!
I like to list out the habits for the 4 pillars of my life & this letter: SELF, WEALTH, HEALTH, & LOVE. Ive chosen to include only the 3 most effective habits that if I only did these 3, I would still make huge progress for my goals. Take a look at some of the habits I'm currently following ➡
WAY OF BEING
If we were to take a peek inside your mind, what would it look like? How can you make it empowering to the point when every time you view it, you get juiced up?
Here's mine ➡
ENCOURAGEMENT
This section is for those days when you feel down & don't feel at your best. I use this section to include my role models, my close friends, & more encouraging content. When I feel like being a coward and not completing my habits, I know that David Goggins is looking at me in disappointment haha. If they were here in this moment I know that all the people I list got my back if I'm ever down and about.
Take a look at my current encouragement section on the right side ➡ Notice how I also have some bullet points that motivate me daily. Along with some visuals at the bottom.
SUMMARY:
Use a graphic design app like Canva.com (Free), Miro.com (Paid), Etc. Create your own protagonist sheet, customize it to your liking, print multiple copies to paste all over your home (Bathroom, Office, Etc.), Read it every day! Once upon waking up, once before starting work, once before bed!
And there you have it! You are now an official protagonist ready to play in your movie! Feel free to update it whenever it doesn't motivate you anymore. Alright moving on!
💵ABUNDANCE TRAINING: The Mini Program To Rewire Your Brain For Becoming A High-Value Service Provider
In this mini-program, you will learn the ways of becoming a high-value service provider.
A high-value service provider is someone who stands out from the crowd.
In your marketplace, you have to compete with thousands of other service providers for clients. It's a fiesty world out there my friend. Your potential clients get smarter every day. They get pitched left & right from other people/agencies like yours. They see their rates. They see their strategies. But do you wanna know who wins the client over? It's the high-value service provider.
I'm going to turn you into a beast, here's how...
I've listed out the best principles to help you become a high-value service provider below. All these if followed, will put you in the Succeeding category in the Mental Health Development Model. Here they are...
STOP PUTTING OTHER SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS PEOPLE ON A PEDESTAL
WHENEVER YOU SEE SOMEONE ELSE WITH A HOT GIRL, SUPERCAR, MANSION, ETC, BE PROUD OF THEM BECAUSE IT MEANS IT'S POSSIBLE FOR YOU
THE MORE MONEY YOU MAKE, THE MORE EVERYONE AROUND YOU WINS
SERVICE FOCUSED & PROCESS ORIENTED > ME FOCUSED & OUTCOME DEPENDENT
NO NEED FOR FEELINGS OF INSECURITY WHEN YOU KNOW YOUR VALUE. IMPOSTER SYNDROME DOESN'T EXIST ANYMORE
THE ANSWER IS EITHER YES OR BOTH
MAKE IT LOOK LIKE MAGIC, NEVER HARD WORK
ASK THE MOST HIGH VALUE DEEP "WHY" QUESTIONS
SMILE WHILE EATING S***
THE 5 HIGH-VALUE STANDARDS:
- DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH TIRE-KICKERS
- CREATE YOUR VALUES LIST, FOLLOW IT, & BE THE ROLE MODEL FOR YOUR TEAM MEMBERS
- NEVER TOLERATE ANY DISRESPECT
- YOU'RE THE PRIZE, BE CONFIDENT YET HUMBLE
- LET THE DOUBTERS DOUBT, DON'T WASTE TIME TRYING TO CHANGE THEIR MINDS
On Imposter Syndrome...
When you're first starting out it's completely normal to have imposter syndrome. However, don't confuse this syndrome with anything as extraordinary. Realize that everyone is a human just like yourself who farts, poops, & makes mistakes.
On Attraction
You are what you attract. Every message you send shapes your framing in their mind a little closer to either being a high-value business person or a low-value knucklehead off the streets. Hold yourself up high, read your protagonist sheet daily, & live in alignment with your values set daily, and watch how fast your imposter syndrome fades away.
On Envy & Jealousy...
No more feelings of envy or jealousy from this point on. Seriously, it doesn't benefit you or anyone. Here's how you make this shift permanently: View everyone successful in X field as inspiration for yourself. Their existence is proof that your dreams are possible.
To hate them is to hate your highest version of yourself which prevents you from advancing here in the present moment. No bueno my friend. Whenever I see someone more successful than me I say in my mind "Thank you" Why? thank you X person for being proof that success is still possible! Thank you thank you thank you! And repeat.
On Ethics...
Money is generated by value. at least true wealth is. This means the true wealth you'll create here in the future will be generated by your effort, time, & energy. Your results will come with experience & a product/service used to help others. Now at this point, it's your job to sell this as much as possible. Making more money isn't evil. Only evil people make money in evil ways. You aren't evil, are you? Exactly! So why are you worried about being evil? Those who are honest in their service and value creation have nothing to worry about. If they don't like your work, offer a refund. If you say you have a money back guarantee, give them their money back. The more money you make means the more value you've given.
💞THE ROOT OF HAPPINESS: The Reason You Haven't Been Successful In Biz Or Dating Life
People want to hang out with others who make them feel good.
That's the secret.
Do you want to know the reason why most people are always lonely, have less than 1000 in their bank account, and why it seems like the world is out to get them? The answer surprised me when I first heard it but here it is. It's because they lack self-love. Self in not only your human self but the real self. The one with a capital S. Can you imagine what life would be like if everyone you met, you added to their life in some sort of way? Well for starters, you could get any partner you'd like, make boatloads of money, & wouldn't have to worry about lacking in business or dating.
When you lack in one area, your life begins to lack in others. It's simple but easy to forget.
Here's what I have noticed: Everyone CRAVES love! It's why you see the majority of society glorifying drugs, sex, fast food, vices, vacations, etc. They aren't doing these activities for no reason. They participate in these actions because it gives them little bits and pieces of love.
Are these the best forms of love to sustain them for the long term? Probably not lol. But can we blame them? of course not. The majority of the population were never told how to love themselves to the core for a variety of deep-rooted reasons. Both from a collective systemic perspective & an individual perspective.
So that's what people truly want, it's LOVE! We chase a sense of love in everything we do. To feel amazing fantastical feelings of bliss! I hope you can see where I'm going with this...
The reason you haven't been successful in your business or dating life is because you weren't giving love! (You were only giving services, products, or your blank existence!)
Ok great! We now know why this may happen but now what? We can't change the collective system in place, that's going to take another hundred years! But what we can do is, in the meantime while society's consciousness increases, is a couple of things at the individual level
HERE'S HOW TO GIVE FEELINGS OF LOVE AT THE INDIVIDUAL LEVEL:
- Forgive yourself
- Put yourself first
- Forgive others
- Tell yourself your proud of how far you've come & motivate yourself to do what's next (masculine & feminine)
- Know yourself & the true things about yourself. don't let others push you off your center
- Know your value doesn't come from your external features, rather your internal ones we can't see
- Know that L's don't stand for "Losses" rather "Lessons"
- Stop the Instagram comparison game. Compare yourself to only yourself & not others
- Let go of your negative self-talk. notice it and see it for what it is... nothing, an illusion
- Enjoy things without needing to share them with anyone. This is best form of validation
- Then and only then, once you've filled your cup of infinite joy & happiness, find someone else to accompany you in your journey & be an asset, not a liability
We can't give what we don't have. Don't get into a relationship because you're lonely. The person who needs the love the most doesn't get it. Just like the person who needs the loan the most is the one who doesn't get it. Backwards law for ya!
- For relationships, this is in the form of giving love, acts of service, gifts, words of affirmation, quality time, physical connection, etc.
- For business, this is listening to customer feedback, giving customers what they want, solving their pain points, understanding them, etc.
🍏DOPAMINE FASTING 101: How To Reset Your Brain To Re-Experience Massive Amounts Of Happiness For Life Again
You ever felt drained? I'm talking about days feel like straight doodoo even though you did pretty much the same things you did yesterday?
If you have, then you may have experienced the feeling of dopamine depletion. What's that? Here's the rundown: Dopamine is the chemical your brain releases whenever you do something your brain wants you to do. it's like giving a dog a treat for doing good behavior. Your dog rolled over when you asked him to and you give him peanut butter as a reward for him remember. From the moment your dog was rolling over to the moment he tasted the peanut butter, his brain was secreting all kinds of dopamine. Now whenever you tell him to roll over, he does so. It's feels good to him so he'll continue to do as you say.
So what causes the release of dopamine for us? Here are some activities to name a few...
- Eating food
- Getting likes & engagement on social media
- Orgasms/Sex/Porn/The NoNo
- Exercising
- Getting sunlight
- Sleeping
- Shopping
- Meditating
- Getting validation
- Stacy from the gym complimenting your gains
All these activities feel great when you do them because of dopamine! But one thing is clear: Dopamine is not an infinite supply.
Your dopamine levels rise & get depleted by how much you secrete it in your brain. You can't inherently control the release of dopamine but you do perform actions that CAUSE the release of dopamine.
This is crucial information for a couple of reasons. Your feelings of sadness, depression, lack of motivation could be coming from your dopamine sensors being depleted. It's not a medical disorder or a super-serious life-threatening event. All it is is your body being low on fuel. Just like cars have gas meters. We have dopamine meters and much more. But dopamine is one of the biggest factors to our happiness and if this particular meter is off on one day, trust me bro, you WILL feel it. Are there some people who are born with dysfunctional dopamine sensors? Of course and these people should see a doctor to learn more about their brain type. But what I'm going to recommend is the advice you should try first before getting checked up.
So let's say you've been feeling down and about lately, well I'd like to introduce you to the protocol of Dopamine Fasting/Detoxing - the missing link you may have been missing all this time to finally reset your dopamine sensors & feel feelings again.
If you've heard of intermittent fasting, this is a similar concept except we replace food with dopamine.
Here's how it works: For the first couple of hours (1-6 hours generally) you don't stimulate anything that causes you to release dopamine. this is a little trickier than eating food. With food, you can control your hands putting food into your mouth but you can't control the release of dopamine in this arena. So you have to be extra careful this time around. To make sure you don't stimulate a drop of dopamine, I'll outline below what I do whenever I feel like I can't feel anymore, ya feel? Ok enough puns.
So here are some things I do & don't do whenever I need to replenish my dopamine sensors:
- Wake up (Sleep +8 hours)
- No listening to any music for the waking hours (Experiment with binaural beats if you like)
- No /sex/masturbating/porn/orgasms/etc.
- No social media consumption or engagement
- Prolonged fasting with electrolytes or intermittent fasting
- Go for walks in nature
- Workout without music or podcasts. No external stimulation.
- Continue this for the next day if you still feel depleted
That's it. Yes, it's simple & BORING! But that's the point.
We want to proactively suffer & bore ourselves to let the dopamine replenish.
When we suffer we have a baseline set so when we feel great we can recall the lows. Pursuing pleasure directly is a trap. Pursuing suffering directly is the secret. When we don't proactively suffer, we let life dictate when we suffer. Often when this happens we aren't fully aware of the moment & all we can think of is getting the hell away from this. But when we intentionally suffer, we remain aware of "The Suckiness" of the experience. With this awareness, we become motivated to go even longer because the outcome will be even sweeter!
It's either let life tell you when to suffer or you tell life when you'll suffer. Powerful stuff! Get healed & get back after it whenever you're ready, my friend.

💵$0 TO $100K MONTHS AGENCY JOURNEY: October Logs & Lessons Learned
Highs:
- 1 new small project

- Started a tiktok page & started getting organic traffic to the site
Lows:
- 12 rejected Upwork proposals
Lessons:
- 💵"The fastest way to provide value is to look at what everyone else is doing and do it in half the time." -Alex Hormozi
- 💵"Give a win fast as possible. Ideally within the first 7-14 days. if nothing gets done in the first 30 days, I think the company is shit. But if I see activity, predictor points, etc. Then my mind changes. Let's take weight loss for example: at Gym Launch, we put our clients on a 14-day starvation diet just to show them our stuff works and they can see they lose 10 lbs. Then we adjusted their diet." -Alex Hormozi
- 💵"Solve problems in the front end, there will be problems on the back end (because of your new system), and you get to solve those problems" -Alex Hormozi
- 💵"Make ridiculous guarantees. Make them feel greedy. If you can't guarantee, it means you don't know how to solve the problem, adjust the product. If you can't give a really bold claim, solve why can't you give a bold claim. Ask "How could we guarantee they get X?" -Alex Hormozi
- 💵"To be a great salesman: sound professional, like you know webflow from front to back. When the prospect says XYZ problem, you talk about how webflow solves XYZ." -Finsweet
- 💵Portfolio = arsenal of resources.
- 💵"Niching down Is superior! Analogy: casting a fishing net. If you cast a huge net you harm the sea life, disrupt the flow of the ocean, etc. But if you know what you want and cast a smaller targeted net, you get more & continue the flow of life. -Self-made web design YT channel https://youtu.be/JLjKsaWXBwo
- 💵Think like the client, not as the designer - you're goal as the designer trying to sell them on your services is to make them feel like they've lowered their risk by hiring you. Things that lower their perceived risk: portfolio pieces/case studies (shows you can deliver), how long have you been in business, how many referrals you have, credit history, see office space, how many employees work for you, etc. "Clients don't choose the best option, they choose the least risky option!" -Chris Do
- 💵"Find the real problem. Because People who self-diagnose, usually don't know what they're doing. They admit once you give them space to admit they don't know what they're doing." -Chris Do
- 💵Don't ASS-U-me. Don't assume because it makes an ASS out of U and ME :) -Chris Do
- 💵Sales serving call: DESIRED FUTURE → SUCCESS METRICS → DETERMINE VALUE/VALUABLE TOGETHER → DETERMINE PRICE
- 💵"Statements tell, questions sell." -Chris Do on how to sell over the phone
💞Great Spiritual Ice Breaker To Use On High-Quality Women
One of the first lines Leo Gura uses when sparking up conversations with women is "Everything is a hallucination! None of this is real! Etc." And the best part is that higher quality women love these types of topics so they expand on this haha. Of course, now that this advice is public, make sure to adapt your own spin on this.
🌟"Magical" Leadership Advice
"Always make it look like magic, not hard work. Work hard in private so it can look like magic in public." -John M. Thomas on TikTok
To quote more of the video: "Make everything look like magic. You want the world to believe everything is handed to you that you have the Midas touch no matter what you do it just works out. I didn't say don't work hard, I said never look like you're working hard. As soon as a magician shows you how the trick is done they are no longer a magician you lose all respect for them instantly. So I didn't say don't do hard work, just don't show your hard work. Always do your hard work behind closed doors to make everyone think that you have been handed a gift.
💵 Content → Conversations → Conversions
"Everyone feels like they're too good to hop on a call with their previous clients. This is how you make money! Make offers, deliver, then scale. Sell first. The rich don't have time to sit and watch hours of educational content from us well-intentioned creators. They're busy. Make irresistible offers, show them proof, & you'll make a sale." -@YousXP on Twitter
🌟The 5 Video Game Components We Can Use To Make Life More Enjoyable
Video games have 5 creative parts we can learn & apply to our own life:

- Flow
- Creative Outlet
- Competition
-Elisha Long on YT
💞Why I Stopped Posting On My Personal Instagram
I used to post photos of myself and my trips showing how happy I was with friends but then stopped. I stopped because I personally feel feelings of envy when I see my friends post things like that. And my goal isn't to evoke those feelings from them towards me. I know how it feels to come home from a job you don't like, feeling lonely in life, when you open Instagram and see there's one of your best friends having the time of their lives without you. Shit can get to you. So now I'm experimenting with only posting content that evokes feelings of love, wholesomeness, inspiration, self empowerment, & more positive feelings. No more pics of my trips, my rave events, physique updates, or content that evokes feelings of envy. The last thing I want to do is evoke those negative feelings in my closest friends. This doesn't mean it's wrong, It's just what I'm experimenting with atm.
🌟You Can See What People Value By...
- Looking at what they joke about
- Looking at the people they hang around with
- Looking at their physique
- Looking at their bank account
- Looking at what they do
💞Swoleations 3:16
"If she doesn't love you at your bulk, she doesn't deserve you at your lean." -@EddyGee (Wise dude on Tiktok, highly recommend following)
🌟My Spiritual Teacher's Thoughts On Psychedelics
Psychedelics only amplify your thoughts. If your monkey mind spews negative thoughts here and there, it's only gets amplified. Goal is to be at spiral dynamics tier 2 to make sure you fully experience the infinite love.
🌟Raw Thoughts On Heaven & Hell
Disclaimer: these are just my raw thoughts as of this moment & I'm completely open to having my mind changed) As I've taken a look back on my journey of creating the Mental Health Development Model, I've noticed that people who commit sin begin to live hell on earth. And people who do good feel like they're living heaven on earth. This got me thinking: "Was the bible metaphorical?" Maybe there is no hell in the afterlife and everyone who sinned & did good things all merge back to infinity, love, you name it? And maybe the bible was a user manual for how to live a good life for humans. At least that's how I'm interpreting it lol! Would love to hear your thoughts!
🌟Eliminate Fear Of Failure In 30 Seconds
SURVIVING:
Being afraid that something will go wrong.
THRIVING:
Being afraid that you'll be lying on your deathbed played by soul-crushing regret, having never taken any risks because something, somehow, could have potentially not gone according to plan, and temporarily made you uncomfortable.
🌟High-Value Way To Ask For Favors
- If you need a favor, do not remind others of the good things you have done for them in the past. Remind them of the good things they have done for you. Helps confirm their self-opinion.
- Never follow praise with the request for help. Flattery is a setup and requires passage of time.
- Ex: ❌"Can you do me a favor?" ✔️ "I have something only you can solve ✔️ I'm looking for feedback & I only trust your opinion." ✔️ "You always seem to give the best advice, what would you XYZ?"
🌟On Trying To Save Someone
"Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces." Matthew 7:6
- Save those only who want to be saved. Don't waste your time or energy trying to save those who don't want to be saved.
- The first step is to of course let them know, inform them, try to save them. But if that fails then you have to let them suffer the consequences of their actions. It would be a mistake to continue to try to save them and continue spending your time and energy trying to save them. The result is them getting more agitated with you, your energy has been depleted, and now they see you as an enemy. Ex: Bad financial advice - if you see someone about to make a dumb financial decision like buying a small cryptocurrency, you should first try to save them and let them know about what they're going to do, and then that's it. If they're open and ask questions and they're interested to learn more then yes continue to try to save them. If they are closed off and they say Nah I don't want your help no thanks, you don't know what you're talking about, etc. Then leave them be. Let them suffer the actions of their consequences. Its a shame that it has came to this point but it's just how they've been conditioned. Because it's only the wise who learn from others' mistakes and the foolish from their own. Imagine if you would have still tried to save them even if they were closed off, the result would have been they see you as an enemy and as someone who was trying to push them away from achieving their dreams and goals.
Closing Honest Thoughts On Your Potential...
You are criminally underestimating your potential.
Whatever it is, you know you can think bigger but don't, why not?
Setting smaller goals doesn't make you a better person. Thinking realistic doesn't increase your chances of success.
Chances are, you have negative subconscious beliefs rooted inside your mind that plagues you. It's infected you & me. I don't know what the root cause is but I think it's time to be real with ourselves here.
You know what you need to do. The protagonist sheet solved that. But why aren't you progressing?
How much longer will it take for you to take action?
Wake the F UP!
Do you really want to wait until you hit rock bottom to make a change? When you're out of shape, homeless, & alone... Is this what you want? Don't do this to yourself, my friend!
You've been blessed with an amazing opportunity to create whatever you want to create into this world. Don't waste it on procrastination or short-term escapism.
The time is now. Get ready now. Get moving now.
2022 isn't going to be different if you don't make a substantial change. You are more powerful than you think and I want you to realize that. Don't you ever forget that you are blessed.
You CAN do X! (whatever X is for you!)
You CAN become successful!
And you CAN achieve whatever big goals you've set.
Don't settle. You got this bro (or sis)!
