"Kill the boy and let the man be born."
"Kill the boy, Jon Snow. Winter is almost upon us. Kill the boy and let the man be born." You have to kill the part of you that wants to be saved. The brutal psychological truth is that no one is coming to rescue you. Your parents are getting older. The world is getting colder. It's time to stand up. You don't need more time; you need more courage. We talk a lot about psychology and personal development here, and it all boils down to this: Neverland is a lie. The real adventure isn't in escaping reality; it is right here in the struggle. It is in the responsibility. It is in the cross you are called to carry. It is time to let the man be born.
You Can't Be a Victim and a Victor
"As I walked out the door towards the gate that would lead to my freedom, I knew if I didn't leave my bitterness and hatred behind, I'd still be in prison." — Nelson Mandela Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in prison, yet he knew that holding onto resentment was a self-imposed life sentence. In this video, I want to remind you that you are standing at the gate. The war is over. You can spend the rest of your life gripping the bars and waiting for an apology that may never come, or you can walk out and live. You cannot be a victim and a victor at the same time. You have to choose. 👇 Discussion: What is one thing you need to leave behind at the gate today? Declare it in the comments.
