I was talking to a client earlier today and he told me, hey Tim, you know, you know, I have all these scenarios mapped out in my mind about, you know, if I make the decision to change, if I don't make the decision to change. And he started going down the rabbit hole with all these scenarios. I just said, hey, hey, stop, man. Hey, stop really quick. You really only got two scenarios. Okay, you got, you got scenario one. You don't program. You give into your vices, your weak self-talk. You're disappointed because you wasted all that time, right, deciding whether or not you're going to change. You can't really look yourself in the eyes. You wish desperately you could go back in time, change the way you acted, change the decision that you made, right? You scream at yourself, why? Why did I let myself down again, right? Your family, they see you as the same person. They love you. But they don't admire you. They're not inspired by you, right? And it's up to us, right, to look at this scenario and realize this is a real-life scenario that some of us are living, right? In scenario 2, you're a beast. You've been programmed. Your conduct is impeccable. Your family feels the difference in you, right? You're confident. You thank God you stuck to your process. The pride you feel is priceless. Your body has become solid, and you know who you are. Your Your presence alone lifts your family up. They feel inspired just by seeing who you are and the changes that you've made. I always tell people, evolve so hard they have to get to know you again. So think about it. Which scenario do you want to play out in your life? Let's stop assuming, right, that there's so many different roads to take, right? The reality for some of us is either we make the choice to change or we don't.
