What to do?

When I first started the post-college job hunt, I realized man I don’t know what I want to do.  I took a minute and thought about everything I said I liked doing and realized it was all nonsense.  I really had my mind made up of fake principles I developed as a way of protecting myself from other people.  I really thought my life goal was to die in some heroic way and something spectacular and meaningful, but I see now that I do not know what I should do.  When you work for something a while and realize that you hate it, after makes it seem like you wasted your time investing in the venture.  The difference between broke and rich people is the amount of money but the mindset that they had.  I recently was looking at this book, and it said there is a difference between fame and recognition.  If you want to be famous, it is a more personal and selfish goal.  If you’re going to have the credit, it is nobler and requires effort related to others.  I thought at that point I wanted to be rec

What Is Life Raise?

Image
Raise Life To The Next Level Life Raise is a principle that defines who I want to become.  I have a goal now to learn as much as possible and adapt those habits of people I want to become.  The Life raise is also a premise that started because I hated myself and was not happy.  I know that is not a great premise to start something, but it has to lead me to an understanding that I can change what I am.  I have trolled around most of my life meaninglessly without any real purpose or focus.  SOme things like school were accessible to me, so I did not focus on it much and still was able to do good.  I also do not know what my real end goal is yet and do not have a real five-year plan at all.  I know that I want to write as much as possible to get some understanding of my own thoughts.  That is the truth behind Life Raise, and it did not have significant beginnings, but it will have a high end.  It is os vital to me that the Life Raise message stands out because it is away from me to

Failures

Image
Raise Life To The Next Level You know the most exciting problem to have is not to fail enough.  That seems like a weird notion, but it allows you the most growth.  When I started to repeat similar patterns with no increase, I realized that any change should be better than what I am doing.  I read this book recently, and it showed me that sometimes you have to just start off with whatever you got and see what happens.  You have to start reading more, exercising, or business only to see yourself fail.  The way I have failed recently is repetitive mistakes and not learning from them.  The key is to learn from the failures and use them as a springboard into something better.  I have noticed that if you have been doing something for a long time with no results, it is sometimes better to try something else.  I learn that from failing to make real progress towards anything real or substantial.  The critical difference is that now that I am in a place of lower ability than I was befor

Honesty

Image
Raise Life To The Next Level I have been reading more books, and I have been learning as much as I can about the subject I care most about improving myself.  I understand now that improving yourself first leads to the ability to help others as well.  If you give advice without action, you are a hypocrite, and the opposite is exact as well.  The focusing on yourself too much is also wrong, but self-improvement allows you to recenter and adjust your priorities.  I have to be honest with myself first, and then I will become a better person.  I have always wanted everyone to like me so I held my tongue and avoided certain confrontational situations because I assumed that if everyone loved you that your life would become more comfortable hell no.  You have to be honest with yourself because it makes you a whole person with real values that don’t falter everytime you get Challenged.  I see now that I have to work on building better intimate relationships and less external ones.  The pr

Belief In Something

Image
Raise Life To The Next Level In life, I definitely have times where I believe in other things and not necessarily myself.   I have had severe judgments because I forgot the most essential part of understanding who you are as a person and that is a belief in something.  We all have a set of rules and values that are unspoken that define who we are as people.  The key is to maintain those values and beliefs in spite of the backlash or hatred you may receive.  I can not say some ideas are the best for obvious reasons, but they define who we are either way.  One thing I would point out is that life is not consistent no matter how much we pretend it is.  There are things that we may perceive as black and white but may also be grey.  The practices of one group may not follow the other, but the crowds do support what they believe in.  When times become rough, then that belief will push you past the doubt and uncertainty.  When times are good that conviction will remind you to be humble

Know Yourself

Image
Come Check Out Life Raise Shop One thing that will lead to a life of happiness and infinite wealth is to know yourself.  That means accepting the fact that not everyone is going to like you and that is your responsibility to take.  The key to understanding yourself does not just include the things you want about yourself but the things you do not like as well.  I do not think you should focus on either too much, but have a healthy balance between the two.  The reason there should be a balance relates to the fact that not everything in our lives is incredible and not everything in our lives sucks.  When you know yourself, you can change your life when things suck and when you see that you are in a period of things sucking you can think of your good qualities to help you get through.  The critical aspect of who we are as people come from a harmony of what we do, say and think.  When all of those come together, there is an internal peace that happens, but when we all over the pla

Responsibility

Image
                                               Come Check Out The Life Raise Shop I have learned a lot in my life I just did not realize that I had learned it.  I have seen things many people have not seen and been places I many people have not been to.  I say this to illustrate the simple point that I am responsible for all of that happening.  I read this book recently that states that we have to take responsibility for everything in our lives to be able to change it and that is very true.  I have started to take responsibility for what I am doing today.  The premise behind taking responsibility just means that I actually control what happens to me in my life.  The truth is after seeing the insight the book gave me I start to understand that evil relationship and being broke are my responsibility as well.  Me choosing to eat like an unhealthy person is my responsibility and not taking care of myself as well.  The keys here come back to our values and understanding what is essen
