Hey, hey, hey, I'm back with something for you. Yes,
you to think about what doesn't kill you make you stronger. We all heard
this cliche, right, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger? Not necessarily
true. It's not necessarily true. It depends on the individual. And I
will tell you that most people that statement does not apply. It does not
apply to most people because the majority are of unhealed hearts and minds. So
those of unhealed hearts and minds cannot understand that because instead of allowing things you
go through to make you stronger, they allow them to do just the opposite,
break them, I mean break them down. I believe our trials and
tribulations are storms, whatever you classify them as. I believe that they come
to make us, not break us. And I've done an episode on that
before. But again, most people do not understand that because they are individuals
who take in the negativity from every experience and allow that negativity to be what
dictates how they think, feel, an act because of the mindset that they
have. You cannot become stronger if you don't learn from whatever your experience was,
or your storm that you went through. If you don't learn from it,
there's no way you can become a stronger person because you're still thinking the
same way. You didn't allow yourself to learn from that lesson. Because all
things, all of the tribes and tribulations, there's a lesson to be learned.
But people are so focused on negativity they can't see the lesson. That's
why they don't learn from it. So what doesn't kill you make you stronger
is not for most the majority, it's not. It is not, And
that is not to put people down or anything like that. I'm just telling
you the way it is. We live in a world full of millions of
unhealed, hurt people. You see them every day on your job. We
see them every day in the news. We see them every day on social
media, whether they are viewers or come tent makers, we see it.
We see it. And people from all walks of life making the highest money
you can make to making no money at all, we see it because the
world is full of unhealed hearts and minds. When you do not deal with
what ails you, when you don't deal with that, you can heal from
it. There's no way. Therefore, every situation you find yourself in,
it drags you down more and more because you don't learn from it. And
if it does not drag you down, if it don't break you, you
remain the same because you still full of negativity and you cannot grow when you're
like that. You just can't. You can not prosper mind, body,
and soul when you remain the same. And unfortunately, this is what a
lot of people, this is what a lot of people go through. They're
battling every single day. They're struggling every single day. People are so close
to suicide or homicide every single day because of their mindsets. They're not learning,
they're not growing mentally, They're remaining the same with the same negative feelings,
the same negative thoughts, the same negative behaviors, going through things,
perceiving them wrong, going through things, holding onto the negativity, allowing it
to affect every aspect of their lives. That is why people don't become stronger,
they don't grow, because what they go through it does kill them.
It don't kill them like physically dead, but it kills them mentally. It
kills them physically in their bodies physical not dead physically, but physically dead in
their bodies. Because if your mindset is not conducive to healthy. You're you're
gonna have elements in your body. Your soul isn't at peace. And this
is what a lie out of people are enduring because they hold onto negativity for
dear life as if there's a benefit of it. Look at your life,
I'm talking to you. Look at your life. What are you going through
right now? Have you tried to make your life better? Because anybody can
who wants to. You just have to try, You have to want it.
If you find yourself in the same place mentally, you're not going nowhere.
You're only spinning your wheels. And again, that is why people go
through things and they don't become stronger because it breaks them. It keeps people
stagnant in the same place because, for whatever reason, most people refuse to
deal with self. They neglect self for everything and everyone else. How do
you think you're gonna function in a relationship with anyone, whether it's a loved
relationship with a significant other or with your children, your parents, your siblings,
your friends, your coworkers, your bosses. How do you think you're
gonna function? As I've always said, You're gonna always be the giver or
the taker. Sometimes you're both, because people are great manipulators. Sometimes you're
both. You're that giver and you're that taker. But most times it's either
or. We see it every single day, every single day of our lives.
We see it because people are not becoming stronger. They're not they're not
becoming better. They're remaining the same. And as you go through storms,
as you go through trials and tribulations, it becomes harder and harder and harder
and harder because you're just weighing yourself down with everything from the last one and
the one before that, in all of the unresolved that was already inside of
you. That's why people don't become stronger. But the really crazy part about
it is people don't realize they are so much stronger than they think they are
because you always you always come out, You always come out of your storm,
you always come out, So you're always stronger than what you think you
are. You just don't believe it. Now. I want to say this,
You may come out, but your mindset is the same. So coming
out is great, but it's not great to remain the same. When you
become stronger, you become better. But a lot of people just remain the
same because they never healed from what ails them. And as I said,
we see the product. We've seen it so many times, we've seen it
every day. We see it every day every day. Because people are choosing
to remain the same. They're not healing from their pains of yesteryear. They're
not healing because they're not dealing with them. And again, that's why it's
so hard when people have storms in their lives. It's so difficult because of
what's already there. Your mindset, how you thinking things. It is so
important. It's so important because when storms and tribulations and trials come in your
life, how you go into the storm, it's going to dictate how you
go through it. Most people go through it terribly. It brings them down,
and for many it breaks them. It breaks them completely because of the
mindset they already had going into it. No one can change your life other
than you. Some of you are the same. You've been on medication for
anxiety depression by Polish schizophrenic, I mean all types of things for years and
years and years and years. Because it's habitual. Now it's habitual. You
are doing nothing to get yourselves off of the medication. You're just taking it
every day, every day, every day, every day. How are you
getting better if you're not doing anything different. The medicine definitely is not going
to change what's inside of you. It can alter your mind, it can
alter your body, harm your body in a way. It can alter you
for a moment, keeps you from thinking, keeps you from having nightmares,
help you to sleep, or whatever. But when it settles down, you
right in the place you were before you took the medication. And I'm not
knocked in medication at all. I'm not knocking it. But what I'm saying
is, if you're not becoming better, something else needs to be done.
Some people still medication for years and years and you and all it's doing is
destroying your body and your mind. But it's not helping you to become a
better you because you have to do the work. The medication is not going
to do that. It's just not. So people go through life and they
go through many different situations, and they struggle so hard because of the mindsets
they have. They can't believe, in no shape form of fashion, that
things are gonna get better. Why would you, why would you even subject
yourself to that frame of mind, that thought process, because that's straight negativity.
If you don't think things are gonna get better, they're not. They're
not. When you do nothing to change your situation, of course it's not
going to get better because you're doing the same things. You have to do
something different. If you want something different, you have to do something different,
no ends, ifs or buts about it. You must do something different.
That's why people struggle so desperately. People are teeter tarting, teeter tarttering.
I probably didn't say it right. On the edge is what I mean.
On the edge of suicide every day, fleeting suicidal thoughts every day,
struggling, trying to stay sane because you're remaining in the same place mentally,
you're not doing anything to change that maladaptive behaviors, that thought process. You're
not doing anything to change it. So you're remaining the same and you're struggling
every day because you're not making a change in your own life. Most people
are looking for everyone else to change other than self. Some of you are
even looking at other people to change you. They can't do it. A
person can't love you enough to change you. That's why lives are remaining the
same. You have to do it for yourself. You can take medication all
you want. It's not gonna change what's inside of you until you deal with
it. You face it, you deal with it, You accept it is
what it is, It did happen. It's over. Stop giving power to
those memories of it. Let things go, because your past don't have you
in a grip. You have your past in a grip mentally. The memory
you're holding onto it, it don't have you. You're holding onto it.
What you went through don't dictate what you will go through unless you allow it
to. Your past is not your present unless you make it so mentally,
because that's where it's all. Let some of you have been angry for as
long as you can remember, mad, angry, full of insecurities. Can't
love anybody because you find every fault in them. But the whole time is
you so many negative things that interfere in people lives, that inhibits their growth,
But people do it to themselves. Every storm you go through, you
go through, but you don't grow. You don't grow, you remain the
same. You come out of it still mad, still suicidal, homicidal,
madder than you were before you went in it mad at the world. When
you have to do inside work in order for the outside to work properly,
you gotta deal with yourself. That's where all of the pain is within you,
not the other person. Most times they're dealing with their own stuff,
or they're not dealing with it. They're living with it. They're feeling the
effects of it because of the function, but they're not dealing with it.
And that is the life of most people. So that's saying what doesn't kill
you makes you stronger. That's only for the very few, only for the
very few, because, like I said, for most people, it breaks
them down. More and more people are smoking more weed than a little bit,
smoking more weed, eating dummies, eating cakes, cookies. I mean,
just possessed, completely possessed with the weed demons. Totally. Don't even
realize anything that you cannot do with doubt has control over you because that's what
you gave your power to. It's a possession. People give in to it
and now their lives are controlled by weed. Some people cannot go a day
without it. Smoke it back to back to back to back to back,
getting high, back to back to back, that you're possessed. So people
do these things to themselves, and a lot of times people do weed,
then they do other things because you open yourself up to these things, then
you go through situations and it's just unbearable to a lot of people because that's
the mindset they had going into it. I just want you to think outside
of the box. I want people to really think about the things that I'm
saying. Think about your life. As you listen, think about your life,
what you're going through, what have you opened yourself up to. I
don't care who you're with. They cannot bring drama into your life unless you
allow it. They can try, but you don't have to take it.
Most people aren't taking it. So you're dealing with their drama. You're dealing
with your own drama. You're going through your trials and tribulations. It's knocking
some of you down and out because of what's already there that you have not
dealt with. That's why you're not getting stronger, That's why you're not living
the best that you can because of your mindset. And only you can make
that change by facing what ails you, that inner man, that inner woman,
that unresolved, facing it so you can heal, so you can learn
to love yourself, let go and move on. Most people are stuck where
they are. And I've told you yes, people can acquire things, they
can accomplish gods and all types of great things, But internally they're the same
because of what's inside. They're full of insecurities self they lack self love,
they lack self confidence, self esteem. They allow people to do them any
kind of way. They go alone to get alone. They worship people for
who because of who they are or who they think they are. Because you
may see one thing, but that's not who the average person is. Most
people are not who they pretend to be. So I want you to think
about your life. Are you in the same place mentally that you were five
ten years ago? Have your situation became better? Have your life became better?
These are the questions you have to ask yourself. If you're still doing
things the same way, something is wrong. If five years ago you didn't
have a savings and you still don't have a savings today, something that's wrong.
If you believe everyone else is better than you, something is wrong.
It's so many things that I could say so many, but the bottom line
is who you are right now. You chose that man, you chose that
woman. It don't matter what you went through, It don't matter who did
it. You as an adult have chosen to be who you are. So
what hues, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. It can definitely be
very true. It's true for those who go through their trials and tribulations,
their storms, their experiences. It's true for those who go through and learn
as they go through, they do become stronger and stronger, and the next
battle they're ready. They go through it, they get stronger, a little
bit stronger. From that, they go through it and it just makes them
better. It prepared them better for the next. But for some people,
they go through come out the same way. Yes they're still standing, but
they still have the same mindset. So when they go through another storm,
wall with me all over again instead of I got this. It don't matter
what I go I go through. I got this. And for those of
you who believe in Jesus, you know you're never alone, but you still
will have the mindset that you can go through anything. It's so sad to
me that most people in the world are not on that level because they failed
to deal with what ails them, but they make everything and everyone else more
important in their lives. And that's sad to me, it really is.
But that's it. I'm leaving it right there. I've said enough. Please
please share this episode, think about it, think about your life. If
you're in the same place mentally, you're feeling yourself, I'm sorry, my
