What do you fight with?
For all of us, we are set in this struggle against ourselves and our ideal selves. It is a battle that is easily lost because we drift easily due to certain experiences and this takes away from us the gumption or energy needed to break that barrier to our ideal life. It could be said that "We are who we fight with". I got that from the internet(not an original thought). To fight means to resist but what are we resisting? Are we afraid of what we will become once the line has been crossed? Or is there something else that keeps you uneasy and makes you pull back just at the exact moment you need to strike? Deep thoughts for everyone

Do we know how to speak or to reach for what we seek? Guidance from people beyond and above us requires humility and an open mind to receive knowledge and wisdom regarding various disciplines. This requires us to remove our previous assumptions with discernment and align our thoughts properly to what will achieve our goal. This makes us empathize and see things from above and beyond. To get mastery, you must walk the paths that have been walked before and then set a new path for people to follow. And repeat.
