Be Your Awesome Epic Self…Listen To Those That Have Done What You Want And Don’t Let Anyone Or Anything Stop YOU!

In this blog I am going to go over the steps to really bring out your awesome and epic self and to start living the life you should be living.  First I am going to go over something I hope will shed light to you.

When I was a kid I really didn’t think I was awesome or epic…I just thought I was unique. As a matter of fact I was much different then about 90% of the people in my class. I pretty much hated school and I had mostly c’s in class.

I had kids that picked on me because I was the shortest in the class. I had a teacher that told me I’d never graduate high school.

I thought school was mostly a waste of my time because I had these boring teachers and not only that but I didn’t really think I was going to be using most of the stuff I was learning when I grew up in fact I had one math teacher that made me want to go to sleep…no joke. I wanted to go to college but only really because I wanted to learn more about writing and computers.

Writing is my thing that I love to do! Back then I didn’t understand that really until I was around 17-18. You are what you do…if you don’t use your gift or what you love then it’s a waste.

I didn’t graduate right away I actually watched my friends walk and get their diploma only because I was there for my friends.  It wasn’t easy and the only reason I didn’t graduate is because of a test they make you take and if you don’t pass it you won’t graduate.

I did everything else I needed to graduate and even took summer school  to make up for two classes I failed.

The subject was math and lol math is not my best subject!  My best subject was english…absolutely loved that class (especially the english class I had when I went to a vocational school for a computer class (I love computers as well).

Anyway it was hard for me at first after I gave my congrats to my friends and even celebrated with my best friend.  I felt like a failure and I felt like I wasted so many years of school for nothing.

Thank god for me being me though…I am stubborn and I wanted to show the ones that were gossiping about me behind my back that I am not nothing and I am worth of something…I felt like I deserved to be a graduate.  I had a verbal fight with my uncle because he seemed to think he could pass and I made it clear to him that it’s not all that simple.

I did what I could to pass and my mother got me a tutor and he told me the secret to passing the test and it was just stupid that the main test is mainly a certain formula but put out in different ways.

The test was made to make as many as possible to fail!  That’s pretty sad actually because it’s like they want people to fail it…which to me is just horrible.

After he told me this secret I passed the test finally.  The funny thing is before that I was always just a pinch to passing it but it wasn’t good enough for whoever decided to have those tests.

After that happened which was so awesome and epic to me because I finally passed.

I ran into a rock on the way to getting my diploma.  I remember getting so angry at this lady!

The high school counselor called  me and left me a message on my machine that I didn’t have enough credits to graduate.  Which is total bullshit because when I was at the vocational school they made sure that we all had our credits in order to graduate.

So, I called her and we talked for a bit and then she decided to call the vocational school.  When I talked to her again lol it seemed like she bitten her tongue (not literally but you know what I mean).

It was like she didn’t want me to graduate…I don’t understand it but that’s just pathetic.  Anyway I did get my diploma just had to go through some stupid crap.

I remember when I was going through this rough patch that I was looking for a better way to live my life.  I was looking for a way that I would be happy with myself and to have a way to help others.

I desired to be better…to learn and help a lot of people.  My mom found out what I was doing at the time and she would say you know that stuff isn’t real it’s just all scams.

I had the guts and wasn’t afraid to take a risk to find a company that would allow me to live the life that I wanted.  I didn’t listen to my mom because she’s just like 90% of people who just go through life without a real purpose.

With all the stuff I’ve been through with people making in front of me and thinking I am not worth much pretty much it really changed me for the better.  I honestly have to thank these people because they made me a stronger person today.

Now I am not afraid to tell people what I think, I stand up for what I believe in and I stand up to others that are being picked on…etc.  I choose to hang around those that know I am of value…that don’t treat me like I am unworthy.

It took me a long while till I finally found a company.  I was part of several scams before I found Herbalife.

Okay enough about my awesome self…let me go into what you came here to read I just really wanted to share with you the things I’ve been through in my life to give you inspiration and to not give up!

The thing that will help you change your life and start going in the direction you want to go is personal development.  Listen and read every day…this is something I’ve learned with Empower Network.

Only listen to those that have what you want!  If you want to be a successful entrepreneur then listen to those that have what you want!

When you are doing something every day  with personal development it will change the way you think for the better and the actions you take.  Without personal development you will likely be doomed doing the same things over and over again (being stuck).

“The people who are successful have clarity and the people who fail don’t have clarity.”

Write down what you want in detail!

If you want something so badly…don’t let your current situation block you from doing what you truly want to do.  For example here is a great example and someone just did this that I know from Facebook…”I don’t have money”.

He wants to make money to help himself with college but he’s not willing to do what he needs to do in order to get started because he doesn’t have money.

David Wood is a fine example of someone who started with nothing and he found a way to get a computer to get started with his business.  He was homeless and lived in a van but he made it happen.

That’s what you need to do just make it happen!  A great way that Kevin Sousa said to do when this happens is to write down 50 ways on how you can get the money…etc.

“Don’t make excuses…find a way!”

Make sure you have a strong why for what your doing.  You need to have a drive…a purpose, a vision that will motivate you to keep doing it even when you don’t feel like it and that will get you excited.

One way to do this is to set a huge goal and then set a reward  for yourself for achieving it.

The last thing I want to share with you is the law of  attraction.  If you haven’t read, listened or watched the secret…go and do one out of three!

It literally changed my life!  What do you think?

If you have anything you want to add to being your awesome and epic self then comment below and share this with others!

Thanks and I appreciate you all!
