We all have a secret struggle, don't we? Yep, all of us got one. Secret struggle. But you know, there's some good news, and I'm here to tell you about it. So listen, my friend, no matter what it is, no matter what your secret struggle is, maybe something that you deal with from day to day. It could be your health, could be a bad knee, it could be uh stomach pains, it could be even a relationship pain. It could be that you got a foot pain, it just won't go away. Well, could be financial pains. Those are usually the worst, right? And sometimes it's just like a mindset pain. There's this thing that you just can't get past, and it's just nagging and annoying, and you get past all the rest of the stuff. Why can't you get past that one thing? Now, sometimes those pains are even deeper. Now, this is all private, remember. I don't know your pain, but you do, and God knows your pain, and it's going to be okay. So the deeper pain could be, oh, you've got a problem with embarrassment. That used to be my thing. Man, my big pain was I could not get past embarrassment. It was something that ran in my family, and my mom had it real bad, and my grandmother, and everything was just so embarrassing. And I was too embarrassed to speak in front of people, and I was too embarrassed to speak and do my business. Uh, I was too embarrassed to post things on social media. I was too embarrassed to sell anything. I was always getting embarrassed every time I started, you know, becoming the best version of myself, dressing nice, and you know, all it took was that one person to say something silly or say something stupid. And oh my gosh, I'd get so annoyed. One person on social media, one little hater, and then I'd just go crawling back into my little nest again. But you know what? You don't have to deal with that pain forever. You can overcome it. Some of those things do not last forever, because I know. I used to have so many internal pains, man, belief systems and problems internally, that man, I thought I would never get over those things. But you know what I did? I learned this one lesson called mastery. Mastery is where you don't try something once, twice, three times, maybe even ten times. Mastery is where you practice that thing over and over and over and over again for at least six months. Sometimes it takes you six months to get past that thing, man. And so mastery will help you get past your secret struggle. Mastery will help you get past your secret struggle. Some stuff you can get over, like if I've coached people before, and some people get past stuff within a day, right? Or some people get it within an hour. Some people get past stuff in a week. And then there's some stuff that it may take you months or even years to get past. But let me tell you, once you get past it, once you get free, like me with that whole embarrass-to-speak thing. Oh man, once I got past it, my wife said, now you can't shut him up. You know, you you can't tell him to be quiet now because for years and decades that man struggled with embarrassment and he couldn't speak publicly. Some private things might be even alcohol, or it could be drugs, or it could be your temper, oh, it could be anything guilt, shame, anger. Some of those things may take months. But if you watch it every day, and if you pay attention to it and you attack it every single day, I'm telling you, at the end of a maybe a couple of months, you'll notice that you don't do it as much. But you gotta be aware of it, okay? You will get past your own secret struggle. I guarantee you. So listen, be encouraged, be strong. You are stronger than you think, and you will overcome your secret struggle. Take care, guys.
