Defeat Our Demons

Motivation Manifesto

As we gain greater presence and purpose in life, we become more attuned to our vitality and strength. We also become more aware of the profound ways in which we limit ourselves. We come to realize that our thoughts, more so than our circumstances, sabotage our freedom and success. We are the ones who allow our insecurities and fears to grow into the tidal waves of worry that wash our dreams away. We are the ones who constantly delay our own progress, quitting just as the hour demands courageous action. We are the ones separating ourselves from others so that we needn’t risk real connection or so that we can feel better than them.

Greatness belongs to those who have mastered their internal world. We are all plagued by doubt, but the great nevertheless find faith and begin. We all feel like delaying action, but the great march on. We all want to avoid vulnerability or act superior over others from time to time, but the great consistently demonstrate openness, humility, and love. These few are not lucky; they are simply more intentional and more practiced at defeating their internal demons. That is why they have so much vitality, motivation, and confidence–enlightenment comes to those who free themselves from self-oppression.

Let us choose to make that our aim, and once and for all root out that which holds us back in life. We deserve to be free from all those stirrings within us that compromise our magnificence. For this, let us declare: We Shall Defeat Our Demons.
