AFFIRMATION OF THE WEEK

I’VE DONE HARD THINGS BEFORE,
I CAN DO THIS TOO.

WHAT’S THE GAME PLAN?

you know what I was thinking?

we always talk about fear being the thing that holds us back,
but it’s not even fear.
it’s doubt.

because when you think about the life you actually want…
it doesn’t scare you.
it excites you.

what holds you back is that quiet voice telling you you’re not capable.
we don’t really fear failure, we know it teaches us something.

but doubt?
it just sits there in our head…telling us everything that could go wrong.
and gives us nothing in return.

why is self trust so hard?
how do some people just seem so good at releasing doubt and trusting themselves?

i think it’s one of the hardest things to achieve in life.
like really believing in yourself and releasing doubt.

but there’s gotta be a point where you just don’t let it weigh you down anymore.

how much longer are you going to let the negative thoughts hold you back?
the “what ifs”?

because at the end of the day… you might not always get it right.
you won’t have all the answers.
the journey will have bumps in the road.
but that’s part of it.

how many more months or years are you going to let doubt hold you back?

4 Things on Doubt & Self-Trust ⬇️

1. “Doubt is pointless” - Kobe Bryant

whether you doubt yourself or not,
you’re still going to wake up and have to do it all over again.

since we don’t control the outcome,
doubt is just a waste of time,
time you could’ve spent figuring it out.

and if it doesn’t work out?
oh well.
you try again.

so you can spend your time convincing yourself something won’t work
or you can go take the chance.

win or lose, the work continues.

2. “Perfection is an impossible destination.” -Tim Ferriss

there’s no such thing as perfect.
if we chase that, we’re chasing something that isn’t real.

the greats lose.
the greats fail.
they miss shots.
they strike out.

if you’re chasing perfection,
you won’t start anything.

there comes a moment when we have to be honest with ourselves.
is it perfection that’s holding me back… or is it this?
“people will laugh”
“people will judge me”
“people might think i’m corny”

am i chasing perfection…
or am i just using that as an excuse because i care about what people think?

3. “Doubt kills more dreams that failure ever will.” - Suzy Kassem

doubt is the thief of dreams.

it’s the thief of time
it’s the thief of opportunities
it’s the thief of experiences.
it’s the thief of every single thing you want in life.

everything you want is on the other side of it.
and the longer we let it sit in our mind,
the more it takes from us.

all it takes is one decision.
one decision to say, “i’m done with this”,
“i’m not letting doubt hold me back anymore”.

doubt will steal everything from you,
if you let it.

4. Don’t close the door on yourself

there will be people who doubt you,
people who don’t trust you or the work you’re putting in.

but that person cannot be you.

if you’re doubting something, that doesn’t mean it won’t work.
and if you’re confident, that doesn’t guarantee it will.

at the end of the day, all we really have is our actions and our decisions.
but don’t be the person to close the door on yourself.

now that you've read this, you might be asking:

So wtf do I do?

honestly, I don’t have that answer for you.

You have to ask yourself:

am I tired of living in doubt?
am I tired of killing my dreams before I even start?
am I going to continue to let doubt steal everything from me?

only you can answer these questions.

one thing I’ve learned is, no amount of motivational content, books, or podcasts, is going to erase self-doubt or suddenly make you trust yourself.

not even this newsletter.

that’s needs to come from you.
that needs to come from me.
