"Failures in life are not only
inevitable, but a requirement for getting better. Anyone who tells you
otherwise is a liar. Period. Unless you are a prodigy, everything you
do in life will come with some success, and some failure. It's what you
do with that failure that defines whether you get bitter, or better.
Learning how to be happy with who you are is most often about what to do
with those failures. A failure could be something that steers you away
from something you shouldn't have been doing in the first place. Like a
job, or a relationship, or MMA fighting, or smoking crack. It may not
be evident at that moment, and may not reveal itself until later, but if
you dwell on the "failure" aspect of the present, instead of looking to
the future, you will stay mired in the sludge and quicksand.
If you are ever to eradicate the blackness that envelopes you, you must
come to terms with the fact that crawling out of the depths of it means
your hands will become blistered and torn. At times the climb will be
incredibly painful, and you will question if it's really worth it. However, you have to focus on the goal. The goal is to climb up and
rise out. Not to do so unscathed. The blisters and blood and pain is
all part of the climb, not part of "failing".
"Death is winning... At the end of the day, we are all inevitably carcasses on the safari planes we call life. Do the winds echo your name with a whisper of respect, dignity, strength, honesty, and integrity? Do they whisper that you were a coward, backstabber, leech, and liar? Or do they not even whisper you were here at all? Build your body to make it strong. You cannot protect or provide for anything or anyone, if you are weak and feeble. Be responsible for your decisions, and don't pass the buck. You get all of the power in regards to your own actions. No one can MAKE you feel anything. You decide that for yourself. Cut off emotional vagrants and leeches. You must learn how to let go of a hand that is attached to someone that desires the abyss. Cast out backstabbers, and liars. You have no reason to keep anyone who fits this description in your life. Most important, don't become either of the two. Stop caring what others are doing that have no matter in your life. Your own accomplishments and purpose should be at the forefront of what your energy is going into. Have specific goals in lifting and life. Your next minute or hour is not promised to you. Don't drift aimlessly in the pit of iron or in life, not knowing what you are doing. Find your purpose, accept the responsibilities that come with it, and harden the fuck up."
