And what's joy without no pain
And I'm still gon' do my thing

Goals are not that far away when you believe in yourself

Determination to me is the person who works hard and does it not to get compliments or comments but for self fulfillment because this person knows doing this is a part of who they are. To me, hard work ascribes into building a good work ethic. Lately I've had so much free time every morning til 5pm and I've used that time very wisely. Some days I read and train so much that after a 5-6 hour shift at work, I crash at home and sleep for 9 hours straight.

But to stay on topic, I think everyone should stay focused and determined on whatever their goals are in life and if certain goals are within reach, don't stop at anything to reach them. With anything in life it's easier to get into something then get out of it. When you're trying to accomplish a goal in life, it's very easy to say you're going to do something, but it takes a stronger person to carry out that goal finishing it all the way. Sometimes when in the middle of performing a goal we may get side tracked, come to feeling apathetic and just give up. I've seen too many people be the victim of this and it has to stop!

We're all able of performing and accomplishing great things in life, but sometimes we just need that extra boost of motivation to do so. If you're the type that can tough everything out on their own and constantly self-motivate one's self due to whatever past experiences that have made you that strong person, then props to you. But if you're not, always think of those who love you and can't wait to see you progress into a successful and happy adult. Personally this helps me because I always picture myself as a successful person surrounded by my loved ones at a point in my life where I have the main things I want in life: a house, wife, kids, successful job, being a capoeira teacher, and being a mentor to whoever wants my perception and advice on whatever situation that life brings up. And I can never get to this point unless I believe in myself and do things for MY better and for my future.

There's so many conditions in life where life isn't pleasant, but when life is, always remember to appreciate the life you're living and if you can make it better, then do it. Making your life better is comprised of: happiness, determination, work ethic and a focused mind.

Believe in yourself

fam bam & homies

Life is a journey..and I'm embracing every moment of it. I love my close friends. It's times like these I cherish because days where handshakes, jokes, point of views, catching up, smiles and good times are exchanged leave me feeling glad about the people I surround myself with. No fakeness around my circle son.
