EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON. Think about that for a moment.
All your efforts: personal, professional, carnal utter and absolute slaves to some cosmically predetermined set of outcomes. As if we have no say in, let alone the culpability for, the defining moments in our lives.
If you want a life of purpose, begin by inverting the notion that everything happens for a reason. Redefine it, not as some future explanation for terrible tragedy or glorious achievement but, as validation for the deliberate choices that lead us to these critical junctures in the first place.
Assert authority over chance, fate and destiny, because everything does happen for a reason, AND THAT REASON IS YOU.
To obtain elite success, you must be willing to make the hard choices do the unpleasant things, risk your most valuable assets and do away do away with the shackles designed by society to limit us: love, marriage, children and above all the uninvited imposition of lesser people’s moral agendas, because nothing worthwhile is ever achieved without sacrifice and true greatness only comes to those willing to pursue it at any cost.
