@TheCreatorsBP What if I don't know how to make my decisions smaller?
What's a 'small' decision?

@TheCreatorsBP They struggle with figuring out where to start. They get overwhelmed

When I was 33, I was:
- Burned out
- Depressed
- Lost
I drove 20 minutes out of town and hiked up to the top of a valley where I had planned to end my life.
Hell, this was nearly the last image of me alive
I arrived, sat down at the edge of the cliff,
But something clicked.
Clarity hit me like a lightning bolt.
The shift in my perspective was immediate and tactile.
The fault lines that nearly swallowed me whole closed up and formed solid ground.
I wasn't at rock bottom. I never was.
I was at the peak of one mountain & overlooking a path to a new climb that vanished high into the clouds.
Clinging to the end of one chapter of my life, I was completely blind to the next chapter waiting to start right in front of me.
My skin felt electric.
I moved away from the edge, stood up, and ran back to my car.
The drive home was silent outside of the white noise of tires on pavement.
Within the next 6 months, I would be working with a bucket-list client and having my work published internationally.
Within a year, I would be building the foundations for The Creator's Blueprint.
I'm not sharing this story with you for sympathy,
I'm sharing this with you in the hopes that you can learn from a moment that not everyone gets in such a dark place.
The takeaway I want you to have:
When you feel stuck
When you feel like you've run out of highway
Take 10 minutes and look around you.
(And I mean really look)
There's a solid chance that you are constantly struggling to go up because you've taken this chapter as high as it can go.
This isn't a point of failure.
This isn't a place to feel like you've wasted time
You grabbed onto something and took it to the very limits of where it could go.
That is an accomplishment to be proud of.
The key is that you have to recognize this not as an ending, but as a place of a new beginning.
As entrepreneurs & creators, our greatest work,
Our magnum opus,
Is creating our lives.
We create to become more of what we are
To keep making ourselves anew
So when you are lost
When things feel hopeless,
Find yourself not looking toward the end,
Find yourself looking toward the next beginning.
