Your ego sabotages your goals by creating excuses. You plan a morning run but talk yourself out of it with reasons about fatigue or failure. Faith anchors your belief in your path, but the ego dismisses validation as luck, keeping you stuck in self-sabotage.
You know, the ego gets really fucking clever. For example, if you say, I'm going to get up early and go for a run, you know, the night before, you're excited and you're like, I'm going to do it. You wake up in the morning and what does your mind say? Oh, we're tired today, or we didn't get enough sleep. And if that doesn't work, what else does it say? Yeah. You know, if we don't rest more, we're going to get sick, or this is good, we're going to ruin our day. It gets really clever. Yeah. At figuring out ways to keep you away from it. But when you do stay in line with yourself and things happen a certain way, you get validation, right? So it's just a matter of having enough faith, which I think is a good thing about religion too. It's like it teaches you to believe and it gives you an anchor or path. Have enough faith to see it through and then you'll get validation. And but that doesn't mean when you get validation the first time you're good forever, because your ego is clever, right? It's going to say, oh no, that was luck, or oh no, that's not going to happen again.
