One of the most important pieces of advice I wish I had received years ago is this: Stop apologizing for who you are. When you stop feeling sorry for being yourself, you unlock a part of you that is capable of achieving greatness.
Embrace Your True Self
When I began my journey of self-discovery, I wish someone had told me to stop apologizing for who I am. The day you stop apologizing for what’s in your head and embrace who you truly are is the day your life takes on an exciting new adventure. For me, this realization changed everything. My life became epic and full of excitement because I accepted the person I am today.
If you look around my space, you’ll see anime, video games, and elements of the businesses I’ve built. This is who I am, and I’m proud of it. I am okay if some people don’t understand my energy or my passion for helping others transform their lives and businesses. What I am not okay with is pretending to be someone I am not. I’ve learned to be unapologetically myself, and I encourage you to do the same.
The Power of Being Different
Every successful person you see today is different. Why? Because they have a unique vision. They don’t conform to the norms but instead, they pursue their vision wholeheartedly. Becoming the person you are meant to be can take years, but it doesn’t have to. You can start today. Be comfortable saying, “I want to be rich,” “I want to be influential,” or “I want to create something meaningful.” Don’t be afraid to be different or to stand out.
You also need to be okay with being alone. This journey isn’t about blending in; it’s about standing out and pursuing your unique path. There is a “beast” inside each of us—a force that pushes us toward our true life adventure. For me, that adventure involves speaking into people’s lives, transforming minds, building my businesses, and helping others grow theirs.
Embrace Your “Weird” and Find Your Path
My version of “weird” is a mix of different passions. I love playing my Nintendo Switch and PlayStation, exercising, and donating my time to causes I believe in. I want to make a difference in the world with my voice because I think differently. The question is, are you okay with being “weird”?
Most people operate in a mode where they do what they’re told. But those who embrace their uniqueness—what some might call “weirdness”—are the ones who become leaders and visionaries. If you want to build generational wealth or achieve great things, you need to start embracing your unique self. Be the one who guides others, not the one who just follows directions.
Sacrifice Who You Are to Become Who You’re Meant to Be
If there’s one thing I wish someone had told me a long time ago, it’s this: Sacrifice who you are today to become who you are truly meant to be. We get only one life, and within this lifetime, we have the power to create, impact, and leave a lasting legacy. To achieve this, you must tap into a part of yourself that has never been explored before.
If you’re reading this, you’re already on the right path. You’re part of a special group of people willing to implement this advice and make changes in their lives. Most people won’t take action; they’ll continue to follow others instead of creating their path.
Build Your Ideal Life and Create Freedom
This journey is about creating the life you desire and automating it so you can have the freedom you deserve. It’s about building wealth not just for the sake of money but to live a life that aligns with your true desires. However, most people won’t take this step—they won’t tap into their true potential. But if you’ve read this far, you’re different. You’re ready to take action.
So, write it down, declare it: “I’m tapping into my weird.” Remember, embracing your true self and automating your life’s processes will create a lifetime of freedom for you. Stay energized, stay motivated, and never apologize for who you are.
