“Inspiration is for amateurs, the rest of us just show up and get to work.” – Chuck Close
Make your move or pass the ball.
Speak up or sit down.
Sh*t, or get off the damn pot.
Those moments of lukewarm effort, of kinda doing the thing but really not…
The work hours spent flicking around social media instead of in deep, unbroken concentration on your most critical task…
The workouts half-assed, the sets stopped short of failure, the exercises skipped, the days missed…
The meditations spent lost in thought, sitting without practicing, never generating the diligent focus required for self-mastery…
The activities completed as checks on a to-do list, done just to say you did them, showing up without being fully present…
The time spent doing work you hate without also working towards doing work you love…
The years that pass by with no tangible results, no material progress, no dynamic movement towards your greater vision…
The hesitation, the indecision, the fapping and farting and taking it way too damn easy for no good reason other than fear, laziness, and that foggy, cloudy, not-sure-what-it-is that seems like it’s blocking you but evaporates the moment you take action…
…Those moments are the very building blocks your life is made of.
And when time all-too-quickly runs out, your life as you know it will be the end result of those moments:
The moments you either sat there doom-scrolling with your pants down around your ankles…
…Or put your phone down, put your boots on the ground, sh*t, and got off the damn pot.
Happy Monday.
