Complacency Kills

Complacency Kills


I have become mentally weak, and I have no one but myself to blame and refuse to use ADHD as an excuse. It has been a slow descent into where I am now, and there are a million reasons why.

I stopped challenging myself.

I quit being honest with myself.

I gave away my inner voice falling to the weak and insecure voice.

I let feelings dictate my actions or lack thereof over what is needed of me.

I construct obstacles around myself to stop me.

This list could be endless but who cares? Does it matter?

NO!

What matters is I acknowledge where I am now and get to work. 

I challenge myself to be better than I am now.

I am radically honest with myself to be better. 

I reclaim my inner voice.

I use to values over feelings. 

I find my weaknesses and grow in those areas.

I look at those obstacles over for doors to go through, cracks to chip away at, or whatever it takes me to get the hell over it. 

I can fail over and over but I will never stop. 

This process has no end. There are no trophies. There are no winners. 

Everything is always on the other side of hard work and talk is cheap. 

I am going to shut up and do the work.
