WHAT ARE YOU BECOMING?
Every passing day, in ways both quiet and loud, intentionally or unintentionally, you are becoming. What you are becoming is not just determined by the big goals you chase or the grand plans you make towards your future, but also by the small choices make, the thoughts you entertain, the habits you allow, the things you bend for, the resistance you push through or surrender to.
You are becoming a sum total of your deepest convictions and a cumulation of your frequent actions. Are you cultivating courage or comfort? Discipline or distraction? Kindness or indifference? Progress or stagnation? The answers are written in your routines, your reactions, your relentless self-talk, your commitments.
You are becoming what you consistently do, not what you occasionally dream of, or hope to become. Hope without actions leads nowhere. Your expectations should push you to take actions toward becoming what you want to be. The mind reshapes itself around repetition. Practice patience, and you become patient. Practice resentment, and you become resentful. Also, what you put into your body makes you what you become physically. If your give your body vitality, you become strong; if you neglect it you become weak and limited.
Whatever you don't want, don't allow. Don't allow voices that does not synchronise with your dreams and vision, don't listen to internal or external voices that goes against your values and identity. Surround yourself with fear, and you become small; surround yourself with curiosity, and you will grow exponentially. Becoming is inevitable, it is a daily negotiation. You are both clay and sculptor of your own future. The past may have shaped you, but the present is where you decide where you will be tomorrow.
To a better you, Kamikun John.
