Welcome to the ProjectRook podcast! I'm just here to challenge you to eat & think well. Nah, I lied. I'm also here to call you on your bs, remind you of some uncomfortable truths, AND light a fire under your ass. First you get mad, then you get better :)
rook, like.
Listeners of Project Rook that love the show mention:Commit to no longer saying "they don't want me to know", about anything ever again. Instead accept that you have the ability to assess and discern anything you could ever possibly need to know, then get intentional about doing so. The world is playing a game and if you don't figure out how to opt out, you'll continue to be a pawn in theirs.
Everybody got desires. And funny enough, everybody got excuses. How do you know if you specialize in working or whining? When in doubt there are a few things you can use as a gauge to determine if you actually give a damn about yourself and your health or if you're just like the average person who flaps their lips about what's important but refuses to do anything about it.
The chosen ones are incapable of living beneath their potential. Being average, lazy and sick may feel familiar but when it's you, you'll never be able to continue along that path in peace. Once the eye to see has been opened, it can never be shut again. The message is clear: Embrace your journey or continue to suffer.
It's January again and most are setup to do exactly what they did last January - nothing. When everyone around you is sick, fat, popping pills and getting worse, a decision has to be made... Do you see the error in their ways and choose a different path or do you accept defeat and fall victim to the same? Choices. --> innercircle.projectrook.com
While desire is required, it's the disgust with where you are that sets the desire in motion.
Who the hell told you it was flu season? More importantly, why did you listen?
The average should be left to do average things. The rest of us should remember that we can't live like everybody else.
What happens when we keep missing the games being played and the lessons that follow? Life has to hit harder and longer.Â
We stay crying about what "they" are doing. We point out the lies, the discrepancies and the harm that has been done for decades, yet we still blindly follow. No questions asked. So who's really to blame here? The system or the people who actively support and participate in it?
Humans seem to be in a battle with the body. Afraid of any sign of illness and willing to eliminate symptoms by any means necessary. So far it's not going too well. Don't you think it's time to ask what's the difference between illness symptoms and illness causes?Â
Every soul is on its own journey and that includes your mother and father. Justify your grievances if you must, just remember there are consequences to harboring hate in your heart.
We all have two options in life, stay where you are or rise tf up.
You must give your life meaning, a reason to look forward, and a purpose worth fighting for. Remember not only your hopes and dreams but why they mattered to begin with.Â
Everybody wants to play the middle. In one breath we say we want a life that reflects exceptional health and well being, then in another we remain committed to the mindset and behaviors that produce the opposite of that. It's time to choose: be well or be right.
All obstacles equal opportunity. Get your head out of the matrix nonsense and remember defeat only comes when you accept it.
Reasons feed you. They move you. They pull you forward. If you feel like you're stuck and uninspired to take action on what it is you say you want in life, this is your reminder that yo reasons ain't good enough.
Pain is one of life's offerings. It plays a role and has a purpose like anything else in life. We must examine whether pain itself is the problem or our understanding of it.Â
What you prove when you lack patience is that you're moving in fear and doubt but more importantly, you confirm that you have more faith in failing than you do in experiencing life as you envision it. . . . (Music @freebeats.io)
It is always you. It is always your thoughts, your feelings and your mindset that determines what you experience in life. If illness becomes a repeating theme in your reality, it's time to check the philosophies you believe in and are currently living by.Â
You can cry, bitch, moan, and complain but at the end of the day what you get out of life is all on you. Your dreams, health goals and the life you envision for yourself must be fueled by your own support, beliefs and encouragement. Otherwise, prepare for them to die and you along with it.
Until you incorporate the discipline needed to shift how you respond to the circumstances you encounter in life, the sight of obstacles will continue to be a source of discouragement. Remember, an out of control body reflects an unstable mind.Â
Free will allows us all to choose whether we continue pursuing what we truly desire in life or give up and pretend it doesn't matter. If everybody stops somewhere, ask yourself is right here and right now where you stop?
The world's narrative would lead you to believe that life is a mean, evil and unfair experience but to the trained eye comes the understanding that if all things ultimately work for your good, no matter how it comes, it must be a gift. Remember the pains and pressure of life only seek to destroy the weaknesses within and equip you with the wisdom needed to navigate the uncharted waters ahead. Give thanks.
Balding, hair loss, alopecia. You can call it whatever you like but the fact of the matter is that the outside is simply a reflection of the inside. This is a mind, body and spirit game so if the body is not reflecting its full potential that is our reminder that mentally and spiritually we are out of order. The question now becomes what will you do about it? Hop on the woe is me, there's nothing I can do about it bandwagon OR accept the role you play in your health and decide to do something about it.Â
You either about this life or you not. You either in it to win it or you not. Can life hit hard? Absolutely, but never harder than you can bounce back, and that's a fact, jack!
Let's not get this thing twisted. While there is a time for moving beyond hope and faith into a place of knowing, the goal is not to "lose" hope but to USE hope. Remember hope = desire = vibration of creation.  While society plays the game of let's focus on everything that feeds anxiety, despair and hopelessness, you must always keep your inner sight on what it is that you desire to see and to be.Â
Unless you're a stone cold hater, you love to see others thriving and succeeding but looking from the outside in can often cloud our judgement and hinder our ability to see things for what they are. We gotta remember there's always a game and there's always an agenda. There is no calvary coming from the outside. The savior has always and will always be within.
Anything on earth can either act as a tool to aid or a tool to enslave. We take great pride in intellect but physically knowledge will only take you so far. Navigating the earthly realm successfully is going to required you to tap into something far greater than the intellectual mind can comprehend. True knowing, protection and assurance is found in your inner dwelling place but to access it you must be willing to left go of the old way of seeing the world and yourself in it.
You ready yourself through preparation and preparation comes from doing. You must intentionally get in the game because the fire of life is coming. Pain, discomfort and disruption is always awaiting your willingness to engage but the longer you resist the more life has to step in and force you to move. Take advantage of the new calendar year by getting uncomfortable. --> 40DayHealthReset.com
Look around, the results don't lie. What do you think happens when you follow the same mindset, behaviors and habits that has your family, friends, and coworkers ushering in nonstop illness and premature death? The same damn thang! Just like success leaves clues, so does destruction. How much more do you need to witness before you decide it's time to chart a new path? There's no better time to bus'a move than now, let's go ---- www.40DayHealthReset.com
If the old world is crumbling, guess what happens when you refuse to let go of it? You crumble with it. When old habits, mindsets and beliefs no longer serve you, you have a decision to make. Attempt to hold on anyway and suffer all the way down or let go and trust your inner guidance to lead the way.
We often ask, what are you after in life? But I think the better question to ask is, what is after you in life? What are the deeper urgings on the inside? Where are those urgings pulling you towards? More importantly, are you willing to surrender as those urgings become clear?
Life always comes bearing gifts, often not the way we want or expect but gifts nonetheless. This moment in time has presented the opportunity to reacquaint you with yourself, to turn your attention away from the world and dig deeper within your own inner wells of strength and power. Have you taken advantage of the opportunity?
Stop looking for and expecting ordinary. That ain't you. You decided different and different is whatcho ass is gonna get. Start embracing being an anomaly and watch life begin to unfold in your favor.
How do you find the remedy to an ongoing problem when you haven't properly identified the cause of said problem? You don't. Life's problems leave clues and at the root of them all is the cause. Locate the cause and you can bet your ass you'll also locate the remedy.
If thoughts become things, everything you're experiencing in life first originated from thought. Your desired thought must become the dominant thought or else the undesired thought will continue to ring true, ushering in exactly what you DON'T want in your life.
Everybody sitting around thinking they'll just play it safe. Newsflash: ain't no playing it safe right now. You have no other option but to draw a line in the sand and decide where you are or are not willing to compromise and what you will or won't sacrifice for your health and autonomy. Choose wisely.
Some things are not about fighting, shifting or changing but simply about your ability to outlast it. Everything has an expiration date, can you hold the line until that time comes?
There is but one dis-ease that you can actually catch, and I guarantee you you've already caught it at some point in your life. If you never wanna worry about "catching" anything else again, you must recognize the error in your ways and begin to make a conscious shift.
How you feeling and how you living is all determined by whether you're operating from a state of Stretching or a state of Stressing. One expands your perspective and moves you closer to what you want, the other limits you in mindset and keeps you in a perpetual place of suffering. Choose wisely.
As the world's antics amp up, you must find solid ground to stand on. Not join the crowd of the anxious, fearful and worried. Instead find an anchor, that keeps you mindful and sensitive to the inner guidance that enables you to successfully navigate the world while not becoming consumed by it.
If your success, happiness, health and wellness depends on the perfect conditions, you my friend, don't stand a chance. The game is always what you control vs what you don't, conditions vs decisions.
What's really at the root of your illness or dissatisfaction with life? Is it what you're putting in your mouth or could it be something within that's decaying you from the inside out??
Life is so giving that it kindly lays before you whatever it is that you ask. There is no good or bad or indifferent. So what you have right now is what you asked for and if it is not to your liking it's on you to change it or shift your view of it. More often than not, it's the latter.
What can you do after you find yourself dealing with the aftermath of a poor medical decision? Is illness imminent? Are the effects permanent? Do you have any options for recovery? Of course. You always have options in the physical. Always. This you must believe and the key lies in learning how to use 3M's - your mind, your mouth, and your magic.
3, 4, You better lock your door. Do you know what your door is and how to lock it? If this past year has been a beast for you, know that the Matrix ain't gon let up. It will continue to take you for a death ride until YOU decide to hop off. It's on you to figure out how to crack its code. Hint: the only way out, is in. Surprise :) --- Update: The Project Rook Inner Circle is live baby, come on in the uppaaa rooom and learn how to get what you want out of life using your mind and your body. -> innercircle.projectrook.com
Life is on that ass because your weapons are rusty. When the mind is distracted, the body is weak and you're not in sync with your spirit, life becomes unbearable. You must do whatever it takes to get in tuned with yourself cuz, how you gon' win when you ain't right within?
You keep trying to duck and life keeps punching. You keep trying to run and life keeps punching. The more you resist, the more it punches. Life is offering you lesson after lesson but you keep missing them. It is my hope that life never lets up until you finally surrender...to who YOU are calling yourself to be.
This is your reminder that no one gives a damn about your complaints or excuses. The battle is yours and yours alone. More importantly, this is your call to reset and strap in for the fight of your life or shut up and settle for the life you don't want.
There's only one game you must learn how to play. Only one that will grant you access to everything you desire. Only one that will offer you protection from the ways of the world. Only one that will keep you lifted and powered up at all times. Here's a hint: Seek ye first the Kingdom.
What does the government have to do with YOUR health? Absolutely nothing. Your health is your responsibility and your responsibility alone. The sooner you figure this out, the less time you'll spend having useless arguments about what politicians should be doing to fix your life.
