I hope this episode finds you in a place where you're ready to let go of what no longer serves you—and step boldly into what could be. Reinvention has always been one of my greatest challenges… and also one of the most rewarding pursuits. It's not easy to leave behind what we've built or who we've been, but sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is start again.Remember, your value isn't in what you've already made—it's in your ability to build again. Life is short, made up of ticking clocks and setting suns. But as long as you're here, breathing, you have more to gain than lose. Keep moving forward, even if you don't know exactly where you'll land.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact#liveinspired #yourworldwithin #motivation

Life's challenges aren't roadblocks; they are the very path forward. The monsters we face—fear, doubt, adversity—aren't the exception; they are the rule, shaping us, strengthening us, and revealing what we're truly capable of. Like a choose-your-own-ending story, we decide whether these obstacles hold us back or push us further than we ever imagined.In this episode, Eddie Pinero explores how life's toughest moments can either break us or become the fuel that propels us forward. The same way gasoline can destroy or drive, our struggles contain the power to transform us—if we choose to let them. It's time to see challenges not as limitations, but as stepping stones to the life we're meant to build.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact#liveinspired #yourworldwithin #motivation

Who are you beyond what you do? That's the question that stuck with me after a powerful two-day mastermind with my friend Evan Carmichael, where Jonathon Cronstedt shared a simple yet profound idea: “If you don't know who you are, you become what you do.” It's easy to let titles, routines, and obligations define us, but real fulfillment comes from intentionally shaping our own path—not just flowing with the current.In this episode, we dive into the battle between being passive and truly taking control of our lives. Are we actively creating the future we want, or are we letting life decide for us? It's time to step back, ask the hard questions, and make sure the life we're living aligns with who we truly are.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact#liveinspired #yourworldwithin #motivation

Not everyone will understand you, support you, or see the vision you're building—and that's okay.

It's a shift that changes everything, especially in moments of doubt, when the road ahead feels uncertain.This episode is a reminder that your path is yours for a reason. The world doesn't need you to fit in—it needs you to show up as your truest self.

When you don't know what to do, ask yourself—if you had to act right now, what would your next step be? Indecision keeps you stuck, but action creates clarity. Stop overthinking. Move forward, learn, and grow. What's one thing you can act on today?

Most people don't truly win or lose—they simply watch from the sidelines, afraid to step into the fight. Inspired by Teddy Roosevelt's Man in the Arena speech, this episode explores how too many of us trade victory and defeat for the comfort of playing it safe. We avoid risk, critique from a distance, and settle for a life that feels secure but ultimately lacks meaning. But what if avoiding failure also means avoiding everything that makes life worth living? True growth requires stepping beyond comfort, embracing both triumph and setback. The choice isn't between winning and losing—it's between fully living or merely existing.

Sometimes, the biggest barriers in life aren't external—they're the walls we build within ourselves. In this episode, we'll explore the “truths” we've accepted, the rules we've followed, and the limitations we've unconsciously placed on our lives. These invisible cages, often rooted in outdated beliefs or fear, can keep us from reaching our fullest potential. Today is an invitation to step back and examine your life from a higher vantage point. What assumptions have been holding you back? What might life look like if you let go of those self-imposed limits? It's time to rewrite your narrative, break free, and embrace the expansive life that's waiting for you.

The hardest challenges often feel impossible, but success often comes down to one simple thing: holding on when others let go. You don't need magic or perfection—just consistency, small adjustments, and the willingness to face discomfort head-on. Growth isn't easy, but it's always worth it. This episode is a reminder that the pain you feel now is temporary, and every small step forward builds the strength to overcome. The key isn't doing the impossible but staying steady through the storm. How will you keep moving toward the life you want?

Each day starts with a choice that defines your path: will you embrace positivity or let doubt and negativity dictate your journey? This single decision shapes how you approach challenges and opportunities, influencing your outcomes and growth. In this episode, we uncover the power of framing your day with optimism and intention. Life's obstacles don't define you—your response does. The question is: how will you choose to see the day ahead?

  When chaos strikes, will you let it break you, or will you let it become the foundation for your comeback? Life's greatest opportunities often come disguised as insurmountable problems. Those moments of uncertainty, where the walls seem to close in, aren't signs of failure but invitations to rise above, to redefine your story, and to uncover the strength within you. In this episode, Eddie shares the transformative power of shifting perspective. The storms we face are not judgments of our worth or past decisions—they are the tests that shape us, refine us, and prepare us for what's next. You are not your past; you are the courage you summon and the choices you make in the eye of the storm. What will you build with the chaos handed to you?

  Sometimes in life, we wait for the "perfect moment"—when we have all the answers, tools, and guidance to move forward. But the truth is, life rarely gives us everything. Instead, it hands us just enough to take the next step. This episode explores the power of trusting what you have, embracing action even when you feel unprepared, and understanding that progress doesn't require perfection—it requires courage. You don't need a full blueprint to start; you only need to trust that the small steps today will lead to something bigger tomorrow. Together, we'll unpack the beauty of imperfect beginnings and how the gaps you face now are simply opportunities for growth. What's stopping you from taking the next step?

Stop apologizing for being you. In a world that often pressures us to fit molds and follow paths not meant for us, this episode is a powerful reminder to embrace your individuality. Your failures are stepping stones, your unique perspective is a gift, and your courage to take the road less traveled is a testament to your strength. This isn't about conforming—it's about standing tall in your truth and letting it light up the world. You don't need permission to want more, to challenge norms, or to pursue what sets your soul on fire. Your differences are not flaws; they're your superpowers. Let this episode inspire you to unapologetically own who you are and live boldly, authentically, and without restraint. The world doesn't need more replicas—it needs more of you.

What if, instead of envying others, you became one of them? In this transformative episode, we explore how envy creates walls while action builds bridges. It's not about two separate worlds—it's about recognizing the beginning of your own journey. By shifting your focus from what others have to what you can create, you can start building the life you desire today. Drawing inspiration from a powerful Chinese proverb, we'll uncover the significance of starting now, no matter where you are. The best time to plant the seeds of your future might have been yesterday, but the second best time is today. The question is: what will you do with this moment? Let this episode inspire you to take that first step forward.

Belief is the spark that ignites every possibility. In this episode, we dive into the profound truth that belief, while no guarantee of success, is the foundation for growth, exploration, and transformation. It's what fuels the journey, allowing us to overcome obstacles and dream of worlds not yet realized. Without it, the path forward disappears before it begins. Let's explore the delicate relationship between belief and uncertainty. Learn why trusting in yourself—even when the road is unclear—is the most powerful choice you can make. This episode is a reminder that while belief won't always promise the outcome you desire, the absence of it guarantees stagnation. Take that first step, and watch the world unfold.  Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

You've felt it, haven't you? That tug to go deeper, to focus on what truly matters, to stop scattering your energy chasing things that aren't yours. Depth isn't given; it's earned when you stop orbiting others' galaxies and start building your own kingdom. The crown has been at your feet all along. It's time to let go of "more" and embrace what's meaningful. To stop playing by someone else's rules and recognize you're already home, already enough. You know what's required of you—now's your moment to go all in and let your universe expand.

Starting over is a quiet celebration of life's endless potential. It's not about dissatisfaction with the path we've walked but about embracing the deep knowing that chapters close so new ones can begin. We are a flicker of light in an infinite galaxy, shaping our story, venturing into the unknown, and finding meaning in each new journey. The ending is not the enemy; it's the spark that illuminates what's possible. This episode invites you to cherish the beauty of turning the page, stepping into untold stories and unfulfilled dreams. It's a reminder that life's seemingly small moments are often its most profound treasures, and the people and experiences we hold close are what truly matter. Starting anew isn't an end—it's the next great adventure waiting to unfold.

  The most profound joys in life are often the simplest, yet we tend to overlook them. The rolling hills of childhood—where freedom meant running until dusk—remain a poignant reminder of that simplicity. Today, we've buried those joys beneath layers of expectations, complexity, and the relentless chase for validation, building a world that's not entirely our own. But here's the truth: those foundational joys never left us. They're still beneath our feet, waiting to be rediscovered. This episode invites you to strip away the noise, revisit what truly matters, and embrace the beauty in what's simple yet profound. Because life's deepest treasures aren't on distant horizons—they're right here, closer than we think.

"One day" or "day one"? The distinction lies in perspective—and in action. In this episode, we explore the power of turning setbacks, challenges, and heartbreaks into stepping stones. Drawing inspiration from the Latin phrase amor fati, or "love of fate," we delve into the idea that every moment, whether triumphant or turbulent, holds a purpose. Even in our darkest hours, the seeds of transformation are planted, waiting for us to nurture them into something extraordinary. Life often blindsides us with its twists and turns, but the beauty lies in how we choose to frame them. While the meaning of our struggles may not always be clear in the moment, they play an integral role in shaping the story of who we are becoming. What if you embraced your trials as necessary chapters in your personal narrative? What if today wasn't just "one day" but "day one" of something remarkable? Let this be the reminder to honor your journey—every piece of it. Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

What does it mean to create authentically, free from the weight of external validation? This episode explores the power of creating as though it will all be discarded, embracing the raw, unpolished process of self-expression. It's not about crafting perfection for others but about stepping into honesty and confronting our own shadows. By embracing both our hopes and fears, we unlock a world of freedom where authenticity reigns. Excellence isn't a static concept—it evolves. It's the courage to begin, to persist, to stop what no longer serves, and to walk away when necessary. Sometimes, excellence means donning the armor, but perhaps the greatest courage is learning to shed it. This episode invites you to embrace flaws, cracks, and imperfections, knowing that true bravery lies in baring yourself fully to the world.

Goodbye, 2024. Hello, 2025. As we close this chapter, let's toast to the lessons, the growth, and the moments that shaped us. The new year is a blank page, a canvas waiting for bold strokes and big dreams. What will you create in 2025? Let's make it count!

What if the cracks in your armor aren't weaknesses but doorways to something greater? In this episode, we explore the beauty found in imperfection and the strength forged through struggle. Life's challenges are like the micro-tears in a muscle—necessary stress that leads to growth and transformation. By embracing the moments when we break, we allow ourselves to rebuild stronger, uncover meaning, and create something extraordinary from the pieces. Let your cracks be where the light gets in, and discover how breaking can lead to a brighter, more meaningful tomorrow.

What if today wasn't just another mark on the calendar, but a turning point in your story? Each day holds the potential to be mundane or monumental—it's up to you to decide. There's something calling you, something you've dreamt about, but have been putting off. It's there in the back of your mind, waiting for you to act. Today is your invitation to give meaning to the ordinary, to breathe life into your aspirations, and to ignite the courage to begin. You don't need anyone else to show you the way—you already know. Deep down, you know what step you've been avoiding, and today is the day to take it. Because when you bring light to your own world, you illuminate the path for others, too. So, what will you make today mean? Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

What does it mean to pursue the exceptional? Seth Godin's insight in The Dip—“Quit or be exceptional, average is for losers”—challenges us to reframe how we see life's journey. Why settle for the middle ground when life's most remarkable opportunities await those bold enough to venture beyond the ordinary? It's not about doing everything but about prioritizing what matters most and stepping away from the distractions that keep us tethered to mediocrity.  Quitting isn't failure—it's strategy. It's the courageous act of leaving behind what doesn't serve your higher purpose to chase something more meaningful. This episode explores the power of intentionality, the art of saying “no” to the wrong things so you can fully say “yes” to the right ones. Life is too short to simply exist; what will you choose to pursue?

What if the life you dream of is just one choice away? Every day, whether we realize it or not, we decide what stays and what changes. If nothing is improving, it's not by accident—it's because we're choosing to keep it the same. Time, our most finite resource, moves relentlessly forward. When was the last time you reflected on a day and thought, “I allowed this” or “I chose this”? Often, we let routines, environments, or people that don't serve us remain because it feels easier than making a change. But imagine stepping off the sidelines and into the arena of your life. By owning your choices, you gain the power to reshape your reality. What's one thing you can change today that will bring you closer to the life you desire? If you don't like what's around you, remember: you hold the pen to rewrite the story. So, what will you choose next?  Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

We've all heard the saying, “Comparison is the thief of joy,” and while that's often true, what if it's also a powerful tool? What if, instead of stealing from us, it could inspire us to see the world differently, to push beyond self-imposed limitations? I often turn to the lives of history's great leaders—our country's founding fathers and early presidents. Their courage, conviction, and willingness to embrace challenges were on a scale that feels almost unimaginable today. It forces me to ask tough questions: What separated their reality from mine? Was it circumstance, belief, or something more? This is about exploring that “delta”—the gap between their magnitude and our modern lives. Not to diminish ourselves but to reflect, recalibrate, and grow. What if comparison wasn't about feeling less than but about discovering how much more we're capable of? What questions does their legacy inspire in you? Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

What can you start today? Starting doesn't mean perfection—it means taking the first step, even if it's messy. Progress comes from movement, not precision. Each action provides clarity: keep going or pivot. Stagnation comes from staying still, but solutions come from stepping forward, one decision at a time. Life's road may twist and turn, but every wrong turn or detour teaches you something essential Your dreams aren't as far away as they seem. They're built through small, consistent actions. A Greek proverb says beginning is half the battle. Trust yourself, take the leap, and let momentum carry you forward.

Dreams and aspirations are the fuel that propels us forward, but what are we doing to bring them to life? As Thoreau beautifully put it in Walden, “If you've built your castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.” Dreaming big is vital, but those dreams must be paired with daily action—steps that transform imagination into reality. It's about maintaining the delicate balance between vision and execution: keeping your eyes on the mountaintop while your hands lay the bricks of the path that will get you there. Every day offers an opportunity to lay another stone, build another step, and reinforce that foundation beneath your dreams. Are you working on yours? What's one action you can take today to make your castle in the sky a tangible reality?  Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

Are we truly living, or are we slowly fading away? Each day brings us closer to the end, but the question is: are we making the most of the time we have? Emerson reminds us that it's not the length of life, but its depth that truly matters. Too many sleepwalk through life, unaware of the incredible gift in their hands. Mistakes and failures are part of growth, but never trying—never truly living—only leads to regret. This episode is a call to wake up, to stumble, fall, and fight for what you believe in. Life isn't about avoiding the cracks but about leaving your mark on a world waiting for your unique brilliance. So, what does truly living mean to you? How can you dive deeper into making each moment count?

Are you dimming your light to fit into places where you don't belong? One of the most liberating truths I've learned is this: you are not for everyone—and that's okay. It's a lesson that reshaped how I see the world, especially during times when I've felt lost or disconnected. A recent conversation with a friend brought this idea to life in a new way, as we talked about how no matter how much value someone adds, they won't resonate with everyone. And that's the beauty of it. When you live authentically, the right people gravitate toward you, and those who aren't aligned with your journey naturally drift away. But when we try to be everything to everyone, we lose ourselves in the process. Instead of being surrounded by those who truly value us, we end up surrounded by people who don't really know us—and worse, we might forget who we are too.  Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

Life is like a symphony, where every note—high or low—plays a vital role in creating the masterpiece. The obstacles and chaos you face, though painful, add depth and meaning to your story. Without the lows, the highs wouldn't shine as brightly. It's the contrast that makes the journey magical, and every challenge you face is building toward your crescendo. When life feels heavy, remember that the storm isn't just something to endure—it's shaping you, giving new perspectives and strength. The light you're chasing is meaningful because of the depths you're emerging from. What role will today's challenges play in your symphony?

Starting is often the hardest part—not because we lack the ability, but because we convince ourselves we need all the answers before we begin. The truth? Perfection doesn't exist, and the path forward only reveals itself through action. It's in the messy, uncertain, imperfect beginnings that we find clarity, strength, and growth. Every step, no matter how small, brings us closer to who we are meant to be. This episode is a reminder to embrace the process, to let go of the need to have it all figured out, and to trust that taking the first step is what matters most. Life isn't about having a perfect roadmap; it's about moving forward, learning as we go, and finding magic in the journey. Are you ready to take that first step? Let's explore what happens when we do. Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

In this episode, we dive into the power of trusting the process and finding meaning in the journey. Steve Jobs once said that we can't connect the dots looking forward, only looking back. The challenges and unexpected paths you've taken have shaped you into someone stronger than you ever imagined. Life's hardest moments often bring the greatest growth, and it's only when we look back that we see how each struggle was a stepping stone, each storm eventually leaving us better equipped for the road ahead. Life isn't about knowing every answer in advance but trusting that each step forward is part of building something extraordinary. Like an unwritten instruction manual, the journey reveals its purpose as we move through it. So, when things feel chaotic, or you're hurt by life's unpredictability, remember you've already overcome so much. There's meaning in the mess, strength in your resilience, and clarity waiting just around the bend.

In this episode, we dive into the powerful paradox of growth: to become who we're meant to be, we often first have to feel small. It's an uncomfortable place, yet it's here that we start to see the walls we've built around ourselves. When we understand just how vast life is—like standing before the Grand Canyon or staring up at a stormy sky—it puts our problems and self-imposed limits into perspective. Recognizing our insignificance isn't a setback; it's freedom. It takes the pressure off and makes room for us to move forward fearlessly. Life offers endless opportunities and abundance, yet so often we fall into patterns of avoiding risk and playing small. When we understand that we're just "raindrops in a thunderstorm," we can finally let go of our need to control every outcome. That understanding sets us free, emboldens us, and opens us up to living authentically. It's not about diminishing our value but, instead, realizing that letting go of our inner constraints is what allows us to be truly powerful.

In this episode, we explore how growth and progress are promises we make to ourselves, not obligations to others, and the empowering truth that as long as we're alive, defeat is purely psychological. Each morning brings an opportunity to begin anew—not by waiting for something big to happen, but by taking small, consistent steps forward. These actions build momentum, creating a "snowball effect" that powers real transformation. Life can't mandate that you quit; that decision is yours alone. Quitting is simply choosing to stop, and as long as you keep going, there's no such thing as defeat. This episode reminds you that you already possess everything needed to push forward, for yourself. By embracing each morning with small actions rooted in your commitment to grow, you build not only a successful day but a life that stands resilient, proving that persistence is the ultimate victory over challenge.

In this episode, I dig into the art of decision-making, especially when it comes to those pivotal, life-altering choices that define who we are. Jeff Bezos once shared that his best decisions have come not from data and analysis but from heart, intuition, and guts. Sure, numbers and logic have their place, but when it comes to the big decisions, it's instinct that guides us toward what truly aligns with our path. Data can't tell us which direction matters most to us—it might paint a picture, but only our inner compass knows where to go. But here's the thing: we often pit heart and mind against each other, like they're rivals. They're not. They're collaborators. A fulfilling journey requires both: our intuition gives us purpose, our brain supplies the strategy. It's about setting your sights on a destination that resonates deeply with you, one that pulls you forward, and then letting your mind help you make it real. How do you approach your biggest decisions? -Eddie Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

Today, we're digging into those moments that feel uncomfortable—the times we feel stuck, question our path, or lose perspective. Here's the thing: those moments aren't mistakes or signs that something's wrong. They're features, not bugs. They're a part of stepping into life, and they're here to challenge us, to ask: What will you make of this? When life presents a fork in the road, we get to choose the story we tell about it. It's not about perfectly controlling outcomes, but choosing what each moment means. Jim Rohn often said success is easy—a few small choices made each day. But what's just as easy is choosing not to take those steps. Every decision, big or small, is a brick in the world we're building for ourselves. So, the question becomes, What are you constructing? Life will give you the pieces. It's up to you to turn them into something meaningful, something uniquely yours.

  Today's episode dives into the power of small steps and the value of showing up for yourself every day. Sometimes we want to tackle everything in one big leap, but real progress happens in the small, repeated actions we take. Take something like a cold plunge—it's not just about enduring the chill. Every time I step into that cold water, I'm reminding myself that I can do hard things. It's a daily commitment, a choice that builds confidence and resilience, and I believe that's a reminder we all need to keep fresh. Confidence isn't something you achieve once and keep; it's something you earn, over and over again. Each small step and challenge faced reminds us who we are and what we're capable of. I've found that when I consistently show up and prove to myself that I can push through discomfort, that's when real growth and transformation happen. It's not about perfection; it's about commitment to those small moments that add up and redefine our sense of strength.

Today's episode is a reminder that the journey itself builds the strength we're looking for. You don't wait until you're strong to go to the gym—the gym is where strength is built. It's the same with life; you don't need to wait until you feel ready or “worthy” to make a difference or find connection. Instead, focus on becoming a capable, valuable person, and watch as the right people start to show up naturally. When you lean into curiosity, freedom, and passion instead of waiting for accolades or success, that's where real growth begins. Your inner world, “your world within,” is the chisel shaping the life you want on the outside. When you take accountability for everything in your life—both the good and the bad—you become powerful enough to change it. It's not about building a cage now to break free later; it's about living fully now, creating meaning, and owning every part of the journey. In becoming capable, aligned, and intentional, you'll find yourself surrounded by the right energy, people, and opportunities—your life will transform from the inside out.

Hey friends, today's episode is a reminder about growth and perspective—a reminder that sometimes, to expand into our potential, we first have to feel small. It's uncomfortable; no one likes that feeling of insignificance. But when we allow ourselves to experience it, we realize just how massive life is, and how many walls we put up around ourselves out of habit or fear. Think of it like being a single raindrop in a thunderstorm—there's power in seeing yourself as just one part of something vast and magnificent. And from that place, we can start letting go of the pressure to be perfect and instead embrace being our authentic, incredible selves. Life is a game full of abundance and possibility, yet we so often operate from a fear of loss, of mistakes, of all that could go wrong. It's a limiting way to live. When we shift that focus, we begin to see that every moment, every decision is an opportunity to grow, to explore, to play. So today, let's take the pressure off and remember that this journey isn't about what we're scared to lose; it's about what we're excited to discover. - Eddie Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

Hey friends, in today's episode, I'm diving into something a friend asked me: What will your story say? We all have that “dash” between the day we're born and the day we die—that little mark that holds our life in between. It's easy to brush that off as something we'll get to later, but when you really stop and think, it's powerful. That dash is everything. It's the moments we show up when we don't want to, the days we push through when we feel lost, and the times we make choices that we know will shape us, even if we don't see it right away. So today, I challenge you to consider: What will your highlight reel look like? Imagine it as the story you're writing right now, every choice and every action adding to it. Our lives are just one flicker in a galaxy of stars, as Frankl might put it, but that flicker is uniquely ours. No one else controls it. You decide what your story will mean, what you want your dash to stand for. Let's talk about making that dash count. - Eddie 

"You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step." – Martin Luther King Jr. Life is like driving at night—your headlights only show a little bit of the road ahead, but that's all you need to keep moving forward. You don't need to see the whole journey to take the next step. You already have everything you need to get started, and as you move forward, the path ahead will continue to reveal itself. Trust the process, embrace the unknown, and keep going. Each step lights the way to your destination.   Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletter Free Ebook: www.eddiepinero.com/ebook  YouTube: www.eddiepinero.com/youtube 

"God will either give us what we ask for in prayer. Or will give us what we would have asked for had we known all that He knows." - Tim Keller   Whenever you forget who you are today,  close your eyes on the appearance,  and feel what the appearance is made of. Feel what You are made of.  Feel what is happening, to you, for you, through you. I can feel It.  He has risen,  in You.  As You.  Be Him today.  That old saying, "What would Jesus do?" Do that today,  and every day.  You went what you went through to show others that there's not just Light on the other side,  (t)here's Light on all sides, everywhere, always.  Don't you see?  I Love you, nik  ________________________________________ My new book, 'Wake Up to Love' is a lifetime in the making (and now a Top New Release, thanks to you!).
