Be Impressive.

Do something impressive.

Going out and getting drunk all of the time is not impressive.

Eating an entire pack of chips in one day is not impressive.

Being loud and obnoxious is not impressive.

Talking about how much you hate someone behind their back is not impressive.

Giving excuses as to why you can’t do something is not impressive.

• Writing a blog is impressive.
• Having self-control and taking care of yourself is impressive.
• Being respectful and courteous to others is impressive.
• Respectfully rejecting other people’s opinions and paying no mind to their comments is impressive.
• Staying up till 2am in order to get something done is impressive.

Be impressive. Work hard and don’t take shit from nobody. Earn respect. Don’t demand respect until you earn it. If you’ve earned respect and are still not given it, walk away. Respect yourself. Don’t wait for someone to offer respect to you. Work your ass off and don’t settle for less than you deserve. Go out and get what you want. Always push yourself harder. Don’t get comfortable just getting by. Keep leveling up. Don’t stop growing. Go learn new things and meet new people and read more books. Go to new places and try new things. Keep an open mind. Earn the good life. 

Be impressive.

Time is Money

Our lives are ending one minute at a time...

This moment you're living right now? It's going to end.

Your time is not infinite,

every minute you live through will pass, and you'll never get it back.

...so make it a good moment.

Make your moments ones filled with passion,

keep your mind at peace despite what the current circumstances may be.

Do something with each moment that will make future moments better, for you and for others.

....do something, be someone.

Go chase your dreams, because they're not going to come chasing after you.

Go apply for that job you want even though you think you don't stand a chance.

Go ask him/her for their number, don't wait around for them to ask you.

Learn how to play that one instrument, write that one book you should've started months ago, learn that one HTML coding, that one foreign language.

Time is money.

Make use of this time you were given because it is valuable.

It's (beyond) time to stop wasting it because IT CANNOT BE REPLACED.

Go. The clock is ticking.

...The world won't slow down for you just because you can't keep up.

The Human Race Has Become An Issue.

When I think about what the human race has done to the earth, and what we choose to use our time, words, and actions doing, I am disgusted.

Is this really what the purpose of human beings is? To be jealous and angry towards each other, judging EVERYONE, as we waste our time using the internet to whine about how much we “hate” ourselves and making jokes about how lonely and “useless” we are? staying up-to-date with the latest celebrity gossip and fashion trends, and making sure we have the newest updates on our smartphones, working a job in an office with stuck-up, power-hungry assholes and coming home to a nagging wife who’s cheating on you and screaming kids who just spilled chocolate pudding on the sofa.

We’re full of shit. We’re all so lazy and we don’t even fucking try. I grief for the current state of the human race.

How about we NOT be like this.

Let's strive for something bigger, let's be ourselves, let's stand up for the truth, let's carve our own paths, and work together to become a big, beautiful family on this planet we all call home.

"I'm stupid, I'm fat, I'm annoying, I'm useless."

Maybe so. But guess what?

You don't always have to be that way.

Fucking Fairytale.

Stop expecting life to be a fucking fairytale.

Stop being lazy and full of bullshit excuses for everything you do.

Stop feeling sorry for yourself about the results you don't get from the work you don't do.

Stop expecting people to be exactly what you want them to be,
stop expecting situations to turn out how you want them to,
and stop getting so goddamn upset about everything that doesn't go your way. It's pitiful as fuck.

Life is not a fucking fairytale.

Things aren't going to be the way you want them to be.

People aren't going to be exactly who you want them to be.

Stop lying to yourself.

It's all in your head.

IT'S ALL IN YOUR HEAD.

You become what you make yourself become.

Life is life is life is life.

Deal with it or shut the fuck up and quit bothering other people with your pathetic bullshit.

-note to self

Life is good.

Did you read that?

Life is good.

Read it again.

Remember it.

Believe it.

Embrace this truth.

Work on changing the things in your life that you CAN change.

You do have some control in your life. Take it.

Stop complaining about your lack of skills if you don't devote time to perfecting them.

You're not good at drawing?

Of course you're not, you never draw.

You don't have a good job?

Of course you don't, you never applied to any.

Stop lying to yourself. No one believes your bullshit.

Go out and get what you want out of life.

Everything We Say Is Fake

The things you say and write without the intention of showing someone else are your real thoughts.

If you're saying something to someone else, you're going to alter it in some way: change the words you use, change the tone, take out or add something; you're going to filter it in one way or another.

We're bullshitting people when we do this.

Our brains have been programmed to filter our words like that.

There are a few exceptions, and those are the people that we often label as "assholes" for being upfront and honest.

But really, we're the assholes for being fake and judging other people for actually being real.

We do it out of jealousy. We wish we were bold enough to say what we feel without the fear of being judged.

We're far too pretentious to admit it though.

My Thoughts About Priorities

People's priorities are all over the place.

My mother sees me being bitter and selfish consistently, yet she confronts at me about things like not cleaning my room.

My room is a mess, but so is my life. 

How can I justify making time to clean something so insignificant as my room if I have yet to find enough time to clean up my life?

It doesn't make sense to me to clean up my room and make it seem like I have my life together when I don't.

If I am really a mess, my room will represent it.

If I don't have all my shit together, cleaning my room and making it seem as if I do is fake and misleading in my eyes.

I will not go out of my way to make things seem a way that they are not.
