you are the light


“You are the light.
It’s not on you.
It’s in you.
Don’t ever you in your life, dim your light for nobody.”
- St. Chroma, Tyler, the Creator

Tyler, the Creator’s new album starts with this message from his mother, who acts as his guide throughout the album.

It’s an excellent message for all of us to remember because maybe we’re in a position where light seems to be shining on us, or we’re chasing others who we think have light shining on them. We need to remember that the light is within us, so we don’t need to ever worry about losing it or needing to chase it—it’s already here.

We just need to find it within and let it shine.


See you tomorrow and keep pursuing,

JC

This morning, as I was driving to meet an old high school buddy for coffee, I turned on the latest episode of the Rich Roll podcast and was reminded of something that I connected with while in Arizona last week for the Integrated Wealth Advisor retreat. The power of feeling loved. The guest on the podcast shared that she grew up in a home where she always felt loved, which helped her develop a natural state of optimism and positivity. Hearing her discuss her natural state of mind resonated...

“All you need to know is that the future is wide open and you are about to create it by what you do.” -Pema Chodron Too many people believe their current situation is beyond their control, failing to realize that their past actions and inaction greatly influenced where they find their Selves. And if their past choices created their present moment, then their current choices will create their future moments. How will your current choices make your future Self feel?
