The biggest mistake you can make is trade places with people you think are better off than you. The truth is that things are not as they seem.

You might think that your neighbor has it better than you. Well, flash news, he doesn’t, and you might be better if only you were conscious of yourself and the level you are in.

The physical can be deceiving even to a smart person and the things you see if not put in the right perspective can handicap you into thinking you are far behind or not doing enough

Trust me, the pictures and images your eyes capture can blur the mind and keep you in a mental prison. Keep you incapacitated and without vision.

The biggest lie we have come upon in this life is to tell ourselves that some people have it all together. Nobody does. It will come off as a huge shock that none of us know what we are doing.

The person you envy and wish to trade places with is also as uncertain and clueless as you but the only difference is that they are not as stuck as you.

You are stuck because of the narrative you have created for yourself. Those narratives serve as a cushion to your inaction. Every time you think about why are things not working out for you they come in to give you a beautiful excuse for why your situation is different from the other person’s.

That is the self-created delusion and scam people have fallen into. Look, nobody has it all figured out. Nobody has all the answers in their palms. Nobody takes action with 100 percent certainty about the result and breakthrough of it. I mean nobody.

Trust is the only thing carrying a lot of people to their destinations and dreams. It is the only transportation source for whatever you seek from the world and what you desire from it.

Trust is the reason why some people succeed and some people fail. Trust, not hope. The religious people can call it faith. There’s something mystical about it.

You might have visions but without trust in that vision, you will live with it being only vision. Decisions need to be taken for visions to turn into reality. Without trust, it can be hard to make those decisions.

You must trust yourself. You must have a trust that runs deep, a trust that can never be shaken, and a trust that supersede all obstacles in life. Your environment and situation can be saying otherwise to you, but your trust must remain.

As long as humans can’t predict what will happen in the next 1 hour of their time then know that trust is what is carrying everyone as they go about their day.

We schedule meetings and act like it is going to be actualized. We create dates for our events and believe that day will come and we will carry out every activity.

These are uncertain but trust breathes life into them and makes them real. Imagine what trust can do if you consciously implement it into your life, goals, ambition, and dreams.
