If you want to know what’s wrong in the world, all you’ve got to do is wake up in the morning and start engaging with whatever source of information you chose. The news of how F’d up the entire world is inundates our social media feeds. And, the news cycle itself seems to be a non-stop display of one catastrophe, controversy, conspiracy, corruption… after another. In fact, 2020 appears to be the year of catastrophe.

But, in my mind I’m looking at a much larger picture, where chaos and destruction are simply part of a process of renewal, like death clearing out the old to make way for the new. 

Attentive Energy

There is a phrase you might have heard before – “Energy flows where attention goes”. It’s in times like these that it is tempting, and easy to put one’s focus and attention on everything that is going wrong, on how F’d up it all is, and to expect, or even hope for the demise of it all. Frustration with the way things are can often lead one to the point of wanting to “burn it all to the ground”, and to feel fully justified in wanting that.

It is not easy, in times like these, to turn one’s focus and attention toward solving problems, finding solutions, stepping up to the challenges before us, and showing up with all we’ve got to fight the biggest battle of all – the Tyranny of The Mind – that part of our minds that is waiting for us each morning ready to drag us into battle, defeat us, and drag us down into the pits of mediocrity and complacency. It is not easy to be determined to be victorious, no matter what. It takes courage, boldness, and determination.

Ingredients to Survive and Thrive

It requires three key ingredients, without which no progress will ever be made: 1. A burning desire to achieve impossible dreams, 2. The unwavering belief that it shall be so, 3. The confident expectation that it will be so. No individual has ever achieved great things without these three things at play in their mind. One must go to sleep with them, wake up with them, and proceed through the day with them, as though they are as essential to life as breathing.

This is what heroes are made of. Heroes are not instantaneously formed in moments of crises, that’s just where you happen to find them exercising their heroism. Heroes are made when individuals take on the difficult task of waking up each morning, and owning the day, by taking on the Tyranny of The Mind and winning, by actively engaging these three elements, and by their unyielding determination to stand up and show up in the world that day and move boldly toward the achievement of something spectacular.

In times like these the world needs Heroes. Now, more than ever, the world needs individuals who are ready to leave mediocrity and complacency behind, and to engage in leveling up their game. This is the moment! If you’re not already engaged in some kind of discipline training (physical, mental, spiritual), now would be a good time to start. And, now is the time to expand your knowledge regarding the ways and means of leveling up, standing up and showing up as a Hero.
