Every man should go over a breakup

Intro to a Greatness mindset

Hey Soldiers,

I call people soldiers on a daily basis because we battle life day in and day out

It’s a war for many of us

Anyway,

I don’t know how deep this rabbit hole goes

I think I’m dealing with my breakup well but I have no idea because I’ve never felt this before.

In fact, I was talking to my friend about breakups,

And he told me one thing that really shocked me:

“Every man should go through a breakup”

At first, I didn’t see his point but he started explaining it

“When you break up with someone, your life feels like hell even though nothing on the outside changed.

You still eat the same foods, you likely still brush your teeth (hopefully) and you have the same routine.

The only thing that changed is one person in your life.”

Basically, going through a breakup helps you develop a Stoic Mindset

It shows you that not everything is under your control, it’s something to accept

It emphasizes that you should only focus on things that you CAN control.

That’s why many people will become Gym Rats after breakups

Because they take control

Mistakes this week:

  • Didn’t put sunscreen on

I was going to go play soccer with my friends and decided not to put sunscreen

Boy was I wrong

It’s important to mention the game was at 11 am so the sun is almost at its highest point

So I got burnt, badly.

  • Talking too much about my problems

When you break up with someone

The first thing you want to do is to tell everyone,

Because you want to let it all out,

Realistically, most people don’t want to hear about your problems

It’s ok to open up to someone,

But be strategic about it.

I personally might’ve talked too much about my problems to my friends

The last person I want to become is one that only comes to my friends with problems.

  • Urgency

I don’t have a lot of time to do the things I want to be able to achieve

I need to achieve them as soon as possible

To be honest with you

I haven’t held myself to my highest standard

I gotta go sicko mode

I gotta change.

PS: I really hope Tank can beat Ryan Garcia on April 22nd.

Peace out soldiers,

Make this week the greatest one of your life.
