If ur not overcoming shit in ur life, ur not really living and learning about urself and what ur made of. Obstacles, set backs, failures, and loss are what make us and shape us and give us strength to push forward with confidence. Don’t fear the unknown, u will figure it out.
I got kicked out of college at 20.
Lost my first wife to pancreatic cancer at 25.
Remarried at 27.
Restuarant biz went under, cleaned me out at 30.
Started trading with a mtg and 3 kids in diapers at 30 (gun to head)
Blew up twice and borrowed from my dad to try a third time.
Point is, life deals us shit and we overcome it or we die. Every time we overcome we get stronger. Somehow things get better, but u gotta show up and keep moving to find what’s out there next for u. Ur human spirit always finds a way if u let it, and God always has a plan.
I take a risk in this message and expose a bit of myself that I like to keep private, but I felt compelled to share bc someone may need to hear it. I’ve been thru a lot but ultimately have been blessed by it all.
