Earlier today I posted a quote and it said you can start from the bottom , fail a million times and still make it to the top . And I think sometimes that when we are in it and we are struggling to reach our goals right , we may not feel fully that it's possible and sometimes we honestly have a lot of ego involved .

And I find this a lot of times with cells , and I am raising my hand because I've been there and I have been in moments where I was afraid to share an offer or was afraid to like offer , like a VIP day or something , because it would be very evident if I didn't do it , because obviously , if I did it , well , what would I do ?

Take a photo I would share , right . So if I never take a photo , then it didn't happen . And it was funny because I had to really let go of that , because when we are trying to achieve something for ego , we're going to burn ourselves out .

Trying to achieve something because of passion or because of desire to help , desire to support , desire to help someone have a better life totally different than this is coming from ego and I just want it . I wanted to help my bank account , I wanted to do this .

I wanted to do that and I think sometimes we get to check ourselves and it's like what is my intention with this Goal ? Is this a goal I really , really wanna achieve , or do I wanna achieve it because my ego is stepping in and wants to be recognized and wants everybody to see that I did this ?

So I want you to ask yourself if there is a goal that you've been trying to achieve and you have not achieved it , where did this goal come from ? Did it come from true and pure passion and a servant's heart and wanting to support someone , or did it come from a place of ego ? Only you can honestly answer that question .

But I think it's a great reminder for us , because I've again I can acknowledge that I've came at things with ego before and they never worked . They felt harder , I worked towards it and I felt burnout .

But when you have passion on your side , when you have desire and servant's heart and support , that isn't exhausting , that doesn't feel like burnout , that feels like this is my life and I am so blessed that I get to live the life that I have this way , that I get to do the things that I get to do when , again , as if I'm doing this out of ego , purely

for money . I'm gonna burn myself out . I'm not gonna fill the joy in it . I'm doing it to check a box , to get whatever the ego dopamine hit is , and so it's a great reminder to check ourselves , passion or ego . One is really really exhausting and the other is really really fulfilling .
