Declare

Let the adversity you face today turn you into a better person tomorrow.

Here is today’s Game and what’s going on.

Here is what I discovered today in our Dadly Daily Declaration reading from Discipline Equals Freedom by Jocko Willink.

The title of today’s reading is “Overwhelmed.”  Let’s jump in with a few highlights:

  • Life can be overwhelming. That’s the way life works. It is testing you. It is going to throw problems at you and it is going to throw them at you all at the same time. This is the way life works: Murphy’s law.
  • It is easy to feel beaten when you are faced with all those problems at one. That does not mean give up fighting. It means the opposite. It is time for you to fight harder. To dig in. To go on the warpath. To assess what the problems are, and decide which one you are going to attack first. Then, get started.
  • It won’t be easy. In fact, it will be hard. Life is hard. That’s what life is.


Those gems lead us to today’s Dadly Daily Declaration:

Stand up. Dig in. Line up those problems and confront them, face them, fight them. Do not let them bring you down.

Instead, let these challenges raise you up, let them elevate you. Let their demands and their trials make you stronger. Let the adversity you face today turn you into a better person tomorrow. So, in the future, you look back at these struggles and you say to them: Thank you, you make me better.
