Here are the 5 BIGGEST Lies You’ve Been Told About Living a Fulfilled Life

Most people have good intentions.

However, sometimes intentions don’t help us.

They comfort us by rejecting truth.

This actually makes the quality of our lives worse.

Instead, I think we should approach the truth without judgment.

Here are those five lies, and what you should think instead:

“Life Has a Funny Way of Working Itself Out”

No. It doesn’t if you don’t.

It works out when you make an intentional effort to live a life you’re so unbelievably proud of.

“When You Know It’s Good For You, You’ll Feel It.”

Sometimes you won’t.

Sometimes you’ll be so goddamn terrified you’ll question everything you’ve ever learned.

However, if the benefits of the situation align with your ultimate goals, then it’s worth pursuing.

“The Best Things Come to Those Who Wait.”

Nope. Patience and waiting are not the same thing.
Patience is maintaining emotional control over a period of time WHILE acting.
Waiting is sitting around doing nothing.

Be patient.

“You Need to Be Ready Before You Take the Leap.”

There comes a certain point where you can maximize the amount you learn before you must take action.

After that point, if you haven’t done anything, you’re just stunting your growth.

“You’re Just Enough as You Are.”

In what capacity?

Sometimes we must advance, evolve or change who we are and the level we perform.

Sometimes we feel bad about ourselves because we fail to act in ways we know we should.

There’s nothing self hating about that.
