The Hustle of the Betterment of Self

Attempting to outdo
yourself every day can be the most difficult task one will ever embark on.  If I use myself as an example, waking up in the morning is the most demanding area of my life.  Why?  Because the question of, "What are you going to do today, Nick?" races through my mind as soon as I take that first conscious breath.  I'm forced to focus on the concept of, "Yesterday was yesterday, fella. Today is right now and tomorrow may not come, so what are you going to do about it?"  I try to get upset with myself wondering why I do this every morning, but I'm aware of the answer. There's a hustle of betterment that calls from within the depths of me that will not allow rest upon past accomplishments to become my demise.

There's a saying in the music business that states, "You're only as good/relevant as your latest hit," and it's with that concept that I must make every day a "hit record".  I must remain dominant in the minds of others, and most importantly, in the mind of myself.  There can never be a moment where I feel as if I've done something that will grant me the ability to take a day off.  There are no days off for those whom possess the mindset of a betterment-of-self hustler.  Now, of course you're human, so you will have moments of downtime (which will be needed), but the focus must never slack.

For example: While on a vacation there are books that can be read (or listened to) or an insightful documentary that can be watched before you go to bed or before you start the day.  There's never an excuse to take a day off from the betterment-of-self hustle.

As mentioned before, this can be the most daunting task one will experience, but understand that you are leveraging a difficult task against the knowing that you are becoming the best version of yourself.  No task, no matter how difficult, is worth coming between the empowerment of self. Start using every moment of everyday to perform your absolute best at "out-hustling" yesterday's version of you.

It can get worse. It can get better.

A good friend of mine reached out to me with the following: "My favorite massage teacher in the whole world used to say, "If it can get worse, it can get better." and I want to hear your story about that." This is where my understanding is at the moment: How we see a situation is based on our judgment of it. And, whether we know it or not, we’re always judging. Consequently, we give a situation a path to a certain outcome based on the energy we give it with our judgment. So, if we see a situation as bad, then we give it permission and momentum to develop in that direction. And if we see a situation as a doorway to better possibilities, then our thoughts direct creative energy to the situation; guiding it to evolve in the direction of our beliefs. Over the last few years a creed developed for me that still stands unchallenged by my experiences. A set of three “rules”. The first two don’t pertain to the topic at hand, but the third is:

12 Strands Of DNA - Our Spiritual Heritage

For years science has recognized that we have two active physical strands of DNA. We also have a further ten energetic DNA strands which have been dormant within the Human Being for many centuries. These dormant strands of DNA have been discovered by scientists, who not knowing the function of these strands, have identified them as ‘junk’ DNA. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains all the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living things. The main role of DNA is the long-term storage of information. DNA is often compared to a set of blueprints since it contains the instructions needed to construct other components of cells. The DNA segments that carry genetic information are called genes, but other DNA sequences have structural purposes or are involved in regulating the use of genetic information. Our DNA is therefore our personal blueprint and as such holds all our mental, physical, emotional and Spiritual information. The or
