I think everyone is 100% self-aware, all the time.
Probably why I do not doubt a single man I meet is capable of Great things.
Also explains why I am not sympathetic, empathetic, or one for pity.
Since I see that we all know what’s up in the world, and either choose to make the most of it or quit before we start.
The latter adopt terrible mindsets to keep themselves stuck. They need things like excuses, self-doubt, and scapegoats, for camouflage so no one expects much from them.
Very much how some creatures will defecate on themselves when a predator attacks.
Act dead and people won’t bother you.
Meanwhile, the few of us who make the most of any situation are begging for more attention on us.
We know the more stress we take on, the more expectations we have on us, the more enriching our rewards will be.
That is why we do not hide or avoid stress.
We train to take on more than we did yesterday.
I call this ROD, and teach it in Take Charge.
Stands for the Responsibilities, Obligations, and Duties that make treading through life smoother.
In ROD we trust.
Ya dig?
Be well,
