Guard your mind!

Our mental piece is the one thing no one should be able to take from us.

But, sometimes we find ourselves being "mind screwed" by some Demon and thus we end up being controlled by said entity.

When I speak of a Demon I'm not meaning in the spiritual realm, I'm not here to tell you how to believe or what to believe. I'm referring to a physical entity that you give power to. This can be eating a bunch of crap and then resembling a bowling pin or a bag of milk. A good example is Alcohol, some can drink and have no issues while others become raging dumb asses and take the drink knowing what evil is about to come their way.

This demon can also be another person.

I've been battling a demon, a real life Black Widow, a Dark Passenger, that had its claws deep inside my mind and screwing with my mindset on a daily basis.

We need to GUARD our mind and we need to guard with all our strength.

No one should be able to have control over our thoughts. When we allow these demons into our life we thus end up giving them power over us.

I struggled with this because since I was 26 years old I've never let anyone control or have power over me. No one, not a friend, not a woman, no one. Owned by no one, do what I want, when I want and how I want all within the legal laws of where I live.

I started slipping due to the hatred I had for this demon, it was consuming me.

I had to finally get to a place where I had to let it all go. No matter how hard I trained, no matter how many extra reps I did this demon was still "skull screwing" me and making my life a living hell.

Finally one night I had finally got the "slip" aka loss of my mental control over this situation. I then had an epiphany with myself and gave it all away!

That very moment I was f'n done.

No more!

I remembered who the frig I am, what I am and what I stand for, I got my vibrations on a high and released the demon from my mindset.

I wished no ill will and gave forgiveness (which to me is that I finally got to a place where I just stopped giving a crap about this demon and the situation)

I only have so many craps to give and given a crap is expensive.

Since that night I have had no more issues if this demon is brought up.

I don't even think about this demon any more.

I feel at peace and my mindset is STRONG GUARDED back with a clear eyed view and as always moving forward and owning my days.

Keep your vibrations high and be mindful so that you are paying attention to catch your "slip" early.

You'll thank me for it.

Machine out.

Contracts are Non-Negotiable

Contracts with myself are non-negotiable.

People come up with excuses why they can't do something.

I make contracts with myself daily to stack wins.

I don't have a defeat type mentality.

People validate why it's okay to be average, they discount themselves.

I don't know how to do that,

I own the day and always move forward in some capacity.

Nuff said,

Machine out.

B Stands for Build

Workout first, get that time in. My workout is non-negoitable, nothing and I mean zero interferes with my training. It is my 45 minutes of complete bliss and selfishness.

I love training, I love it.

I love being strong, being in shape, feeling good, feel like a man and not some simp weak beta boy.

I personally do better mentally when I have a physical goal. When I don't I find myself wandering.

If anyone says I'm wrong then look at me and look at them. I have the results. It's not arrogant, it's called a resume.

I am the standard, my baseline is 100 push-ups, 20 pull-ups and anywhere, anytime.

Do this for YOU, then shower, eat and focus on building the business.

One hour blueprint. One hour of work with ultimate focus done in hour blocks.

Put your main focus on the business you're trying to build.

That's how you BUILD, always forward is the No rush business plan.

ONE STEP DAILY BUSINESS PLAN.

One thing daily that gets me closer to my goal.

Walk towards your goal and eventually you're going to be at your goal.

I'll get my goal when I get it.

This is called PURPOSE, it's better than any drug, you rush to get further to your goal.

Purpose is how you wake up, put your boots on and go to work with a smile.

Nuff said,

Show up to the gym every day

Show up to the gym every day to reap the benefits.

The hardest part about going to the gym is actually going to the gym.

That is where most people fail - they simply stop going to the gym or they go to the gym sporadically.

Consistency is key and showing up is the biggest hurdle.

Show up every day and it will pay!

The workouts are easy compared to actually taking yourself to the gym.

The hardest part of success is showing up.

If you show up every day you are in the top 99%.

Turn off the Television & Social media

Turn off the Television & Social media. TV is nothing more than a brainwashing machine, a black magic mirror aka The Trick Box. It's telling you that women are always right and Men are always wrong, always to blame and incompetent, weak morons.

Ignore the media.

I built my great Machine Shop Gym business without any use of social media whatsoever.

People would ask me to join Facebook, Twitter & Instagram constantly and I would say no. I knew the truth well.

Social media takes away your focus and energy, your priorities become shifted, and in the end you sacrifice your work for some short-term likes. I never cared about likes and hearts, never needed someone's validation for what I was doing to give me confidence to keep moving forward.

Your real work - giving my clients the best service possible - is evergreen and will stick around for years, decades, and possibly more.

Your social media posts disappear by tomorrow.

So what kind of moron would join social media and let that happen?

I was and currently am one of those morons.

I listened to many other social media addicts and decided to join the social media circus.

Big mistake.

Since I've been back on I became more annoyed by the utter stupidity that most people share on these platforms.

More and more, social media is a nasty place to be and my attitude suffered severely. I started to become enraged by the fake "bravado" and nasty comments the nutters would make while hiding behind the keyboard.

I then realized that my sole reason for joining was to get more potential new clients to join my tribe. The reality was that I seldom got any new clients this way and that the best form of recruiting new clients was via my active clients referrals.

So what is the point? I don't have any family, I don't have kids and most of the crap that people share is either idiotic or posts of family adventures along with ads from meta trying to brainwash you.

So what am I getting out of it?

A few likes here and there.

My patience is starting to vanish into thin air.

I'm known to have the patience of a saint.

Likes, Hearts or retweets...could care less.

(All things that mean nothing to the bottom line of a business.)

The things that do matter in the business - writing great workouts - making my clients feel special every day.

I finally realized the truth one day and I deleted my social media accounts instantly with the exception of Facebook which is going soon too.

Many people were shocked and could not understand why I simply deleted my social media accounts with no word and never looked back.

For me living in reality is the way to go, scrolling fake reality does nothing but play tricks on your mind to the point you become enraged over crap you can't control.

I say step away and do a reboot on yourself.

You might realize you are much happier.
