I'm Back !!!

Hey chimps long time no see...

I know you guys missed me but after a long break I'm back, and on my return I'm gonna release a banger of a post so get some coffee, nicotine or whatever fucked up meds you take to fix your tik tok brain and your crippling dopamine addiction.

Ok now that I have your attention, have a close look at the photo below.

What do you see? (It's not a trick question)

Its a lion eating some grass fed lamb for lunch.

Why am I showing you this?

Now thats a good question.

See, on a glorious afternoon I was sitting on the toilet commode after taking the biggest shit I had taken in a while and I was wondering about lions...

I was thinking...

No matter how hungry, the lion does not graze on grass.

Now for a lion and for some simpletons among you, this is a completely obvious statement.

Nothing revolutionary about that.

But I obviously didn't say that in the literal sense.

There is a gem of wisdom hidden behind that quote so let me explain what I meant.

The lion, no matter how hungry or desperate he is, will never even for a second think about eating grass.

Now for him and all the carnivores, it's second nature and necessity...

But for us humans it means, setting your standards high and dying on that hill.

That in the most difficult times, when our resolve is tested, we do not reach for the first sight of grass that we can find. That we would rather die if we could not find the meat than eat grass.

So ask yourself...

What are the standards that you want to set for yourself?

What are the standards you have for other people in your life?

What is the bare minimum you are willing to tolerate?

Without standards having being set, we do not know what to fall back on. When you set high standards for yourself, you develop a demand to uphold that standard. That very demand from oneself is what leads one to achieve excellence and greatness.

As O.G blog readers know, I'm a big fan of Nietzsche.

He also said that one decides his own values for himself. In this case, one sets his own standards and lives according to those standards.

A failure to reach those standards sets you up for a period of starvation until the next time the standard is met.

Is it an extreme way of being?

-YES

But does it also produce the greatest human beings known to mankind?

-ALSO YES

So before you hop off the blog and go about your day...

Ask yourself the right questions and demand more from yourself...

Do I have shitty standards for some areas of my life?

How do I fix that?

Having I been operating sub standard up until now?

If I set high standards for myself, how better would my life look?

How long am I willing to tolerate bullshit reasons to avoid facing the fact that I don't demand more from myself?

So before I finish this banger of a blog...

Let me repeat...

No matter how hungry, the lion does not graze on grass.

Bye.
