Strong Feelings Are A Power Plant
Turning Emotions into Action: How to Overcome Resistance
I've been paying a lot of attention lately to the things that cause me to feel a strong emotion.
And instead of running away from the feeling, what I'm doing is I'm taking it and turning it into energy that I can use to push through resistance to get to a result.
And you can do the same thing.
The important thing is that you've gotta find a belief that you know is true, that you can reinforce and tell yourself over and over again, that causes you to become fearless.
Now, I'm not talking about the kind of fearlessness of say, Viking berserker painted head to toe in blue, high on mushrooms, running into battle and scaring the pants off of everyone.
Well, they didn't even wear pants back then.
They were all wearing kilts, weren't they?
Well, anyway, all I'm saying is find the thing that makes you feel something and don't run away from it.
Run into the middle of it, go deep into the feeling, use it, you have an infinite resource inside of you.
That is a power plant of emotion that you can use to change the world.
If you want to tackle life's greatest challenges and break through any resistance that comes your way, tap into the power of your emotions!
Instead of running away from the feeling, use it to fuel your journey towards success!

Principle 02 <> I Keep My Word
I Do What I Say: Living by 21 Principles
The second principle of 21 principles that I live by is “I do what I say I'm going to do.”
This actually creates problems for me sometimes.
It forces me to only say that I'm going to do things that are reasonable.
Because if I ever say I'm going to do something unreasonable, chances are I'm actually going to do it.
And I have to make agreements with myself and then keep them.
And if I don't keep them, then I really have problems.
I feel a sense of obligation to my word, which comes from an early, early childhood experience with my father, who taught me that my word was the only thing I truly have.
And your word is something that creates your reputation.
It's your word of honor.
And what that means is, your honor and your integrity, it's based on the alignment of your words and your actions.
But it's not just about other people thinking that you're cool.
It's actually about how you see yourself.
And if you have confidence and clarity and certainty in your word and your integrity, nothing can scare you.
I strive to keep true to my word. I believe in holding myself accountable and only making promises I can keep.

There’s a lot going on under the surface
Turning Darkness into Light: Leveraging Dark Emotions into Love
I used to think the opposite of love was hate. One day a friend of mine told me, no, the opposite of love is actually apathy. It's not caring at all.
Hate actually is a form of energy that can turn into love.
It's the weirdest thing.
But how can you leverage these dark emotions? How can you turn darkness into light?
And darkness compresses. Darkness focuses down into a black hole.
This gravity of darkness and uncomfortableness and anxiety and fear… if you know how to transmute those emotions, that darkness can actually spark a flame that turns into a fire of passion.
So how do you do that?
You don't run away from it.
You let it be in your heart. Whatever is there.
And you let it move on its own.
Your mind's not going to do this for you. So it's very important to be still and just feel your feelings.
Love and hate may have opposing energies, but with a little effort, they can both be turned into something positive.
It’s amazing how darkness can turn into light when you take the time to reflect and understand its power. #darknessintolight #reflection #love #hate” #loveandhate #apathy #darkemotions #darknessintolight #darknesscompresses #levelupbranding
Principle 01 <> I Put My Family First
Ever since I had a family, I have put them first. I sacrifice for them and love them unconditionally. No matter what life throws my way, I'm always there for my family - and that's something I'm always focused on.
I have 21 principles that I live by and the first principle is family first.
And I actually mean that very literally.
So ever since I had a family, as a father, as a husband, because this is when you really start thinking about this kind of thing, I put them first.
I sacrifice for my family.
I love them unconditionally.
I would lay down in front of a train for them.
So this means that sometimes I miss opportunities.
This means that sometimes I don't go to the meeting.
Sometimes I don't take that call.
And sometimes I stop working before I really want to.
And sometimes I take a hit financially because I have to provide more than just my labor, my blood, sweat, and tears.
I have to be there. I have to show up. I have to be present.
So I put my family first and everyone I work with, they do the same thing.
And if they don't do the same thing, then something's wrong and they need to start doing it.
