It’s never gonna
get better

It never gets better than this

For years and years, I waited for it to get better. For it to be like it seems it is for the people with apparently charmed lives on Facebook.

The people I put on pedestals.

Until one day, I became one of those people.

I made it. All of it. And yet it wasn’t better.

In fact, in some ways, it was worse. Because not only was it the same as it always was, but it came with all that projection. And once I had created the whole image, I had to maintain it.

So I threw it all away because honestly I got too attached to it and I knew that wasn’t the path. Even though it did feel so good to one part of me.

I threw it away thinking that would make it better. But it didn’t make it better.

I just had access to less financial resources.

I still had all the same questions. All the same worries. All the same thoughts and concerns.

I was just the same amount of happy. And unhappy. Just with less money.

So I rebuilt it all again. A mirror image of what I had created before in so many ways. And an upgrade in others.

I had learned, grown and evolved. And yet in so many ways it was still the same.

It didn’t get better. Not in the way I thought it would at least.

I hired CEOs. I got my legal, insurance, financial and tax systems dialed in. I upgraded the products and courses. Revamped the business model until it finally felt good.

And yet, the “problems” were still there.

Sure, they were different problems now.

But it wasn’t really any better. Not on the inside.

Except now I finally realize — it’s all so fucking good.

All of it.

The merchant account issues. The partners leaving. The clients who want refunds. The complaints.

The testimonials. The success stories. The new partners coming. The accolades.

All of it.

So fucking good.

All that really matters, the only thing that could ever make it better, is me. My response. How I handle it.

It’ll never be any better than it is right now.

It’s already so fucking good.
