Ahh this is genius!

I like how you articulated all that you did in a year and for me, I like the challenge you gave yourself in the past year.

It's the same thing my friend tells me all the time, "what if there was no limit to what we can achieve, what would you put your mind into doing and achieving?"

I'm giving myself that challenge too for 2024. I want to put my all into all that I do; work, studies, prayers, preaching, etc. I want to know and feel what success feels like. I want to be indispensable.

Thank you for always writing.

On the path of aggression right now and these words are exactly what my mind needed. I would also love to know what next. When you find the answer.

Tbh your post is talking to me directly. Before I used to be scared of success and the beautiful things that come with it. It's weird yeah but it's the truth. I didn't think that I can keep up with it(success) so i do a little and withdraw. But RN, I have realized that I really want to be successful. I was able to meet and surpass my financial goal last year and it was an eye opener. So in 2024 I have decided I'll put myself out there and see how high i can fly. Thank you for the reminder ❤️.

Your story reminds me of this YouTube video on building Will Power.

This is a beautiful note and I can not agree less. People often term aggression as a negative (weak) standpoint; but knowledge was not evenly distributed init? 😂

Staying focused on whatever you want to achieve is the quickest way to get results, yes it works all the time.

I'll take excerpts from "Atomic Habits": Focusing on the systems you want to put in place to achieving a goal is much more effective than thinking about the goal itself. So whenever you want to get aggressive, do that with the systems (methods), and your goal will be achieved. ❤️
