Courage is the doorway to freedom. Majority of people think freedom comes from having more money, more options, more things… But what they can’t see is what it actually takes to get more. Their worldview is backwards. They think they’ll feel like enough when they have enough. But really, their worldview is a mirror of their internal state. The reflection changes after they do. This is the sequence: BE -> DO -> HAVE - Shift your identity into the person you need to become - Align your thoughts, behaviors, and habits with that person - Receive everything that person has Fear is ultimately what keeps people from stepping into courage. - Fear of failure - Fear of rejection - Fear of being judged - Fear of making the wrong decision So they overthink. Wait. Procrastinate. They convince themselves they’re being rational and smart. Their peers will usually reinforce these self limiting beliefs, making it near impossible to break the mold without being outcasted. So the safer option is to daydream instead. They read all the books, and watch all the videos of people living the life they should be living. Even if the dopamine hit doesn’t last, it still feels good for a few minutes. And life eventually passes them by, which becomes more like a living hell. Angry at the world for being unfulfilled due to their own lack of action and courage. Exit hell. Enter heaven.
