Momentum Is Who You Lose And Gain

Gaining Momentum in order to see a work in progress. Is that what we are all looking for? Is it the old seeing,Is believing. Well for that you must put pen to paper. You must have the action of putting one foot in front of the other to see how far you have gone. Paint a wall and know that you’re that much closer to finishing the room. Run a mile and know you’re that much closer to 2 miles. You get the point. Momentum is going to feel like pushing a train. Super hard to get going, but just know it comes from day to day struggles over time creating motion. Will not happen in one day, and will not happen if you are not consistent. Consistent is defined: acting or done in the same way over time. Knowing time is your obstacle, then you are the only thing that needs to get moving. Whatever presents itself as a result of that you should learn to be proud, and create the momentum you wish to chase. Don’t allow those who are stuck to determine your motion. Life tends to be suited to those who are in constant motion. Does not mean you have to leave those you love behind, just means they are not always there with you every step of the way. Ride the wave, see how far you go and as always it is your choice when deciding to settle down. To me momentum comes in two types. The momentum you create in your life based on the work you put into the foundation. This being, research done beforehand, pre-workout for all you gym rats. Or the popular “leg work.” We tend to forget when we are riding the wave, or so coked out on pre-workout, our relationships between those around us that can keep our momentum going. We have spent all this time trying to get the people holding us back out of our life. Those who put us down, who shame us for wanting more when they complain about not having enough. Really upsetting as well when they are the ones who need more help than you because you have the confidence to finally break away from the world you have felt trapped in for what seems like a lifetime. DON’T. YOU. FRET! It is all about to be different, it just starts with your decisions to make it better. Despite your emotional state, push through in knowing you’re getting closer to the light.

Come On We’re Both Naked Here

Come on man we’re both naked here. You’re never really in control. Can be taken from you at any second. Kind of exciting right? Are most of you still stuck on the first sentence? That is OK because it is where this blog really takes place and in spite of my of how people feel of showering at the gym, it is full of emotions that i see as a necessity for those who lack confidence. If you have seen the movie Crazy Stupid Love then you may remember the conversation between Steve Carell and Ryan gosling in the men’s locker room when Ryan goslings character is testing Steve’s character by having his dick in his face. Not saying the class is for everyone but it does help in a sense depict the issue that men. No matter how old, men have a problem, or insecurity with another man naked in the same room. Why is it that? Is it because we are afraid of being gay? Maybe we might get a little nub and be “confused” all of a sudden. Insecurities about our own body? I find it odd that men have such an awkwardness leading up to later years about being naked in a gym locker room, where frankly you’re supposed to be naked. I’m not saying walk through town guys, but at least take some time to gather up some confidence about who you are as a man. Ladies just know I don’t go walking into the ladies locker room all the time so for me to comment on such a thing, or leave your perspective out of this is not intentional, I just don’t have the perspective of being in a room full of naked women and asking how they feel about it. Being in a place such as the locker room is really a testament to men and just how insecure they can be. The lack of confidence, or thinking that they have to be impressive towards other men, of course in a non sexual way. To most men, life is competition, sports, work, money, status. Constantly in the ring and trying to fight our ways to the top. The comment I made earlier, “Come on man we’re both naked here, what is really going on?” Was an encounter I had with an elderly gentleman in the gym after my morning workout. He had just wrapped a towel around his arm and was headed to the showers. Coming to the door which separates shower room from the lockers, he seems to have a fit and starts questioning me, “why do they prop open this door?” I myself have just dropped my towel and this conversation was taking place. I thought clearly this guy is having a bad day, this cannot be what he is really upset about. I shout out “Come on man, we’re both naked here, what’s really going on?” He must have been hard of hearing, because I said it a few times, and never got a response, or he just didn’t know how to reply. In that event he takes the trash can propping open the door and throws it against the sinks. As he proceeds to the showers, 10 people coming to and from the showers open that door and smack into the trash can. So I myself being the antagonist put the trash can back, propping the door open, grab my bag and leave. Some people just have no control in their lives and will do anything throughout the day to feel some sort of it. Control yourself, and the direction you are going. Everyone else is not worth your time. Bangov Actual, out.

So Many Keys To Success, Get In The Fucking Door

When your passion is tested. Think of the millions of times when in your head you will tell yourself to quit. I used to play a game with myself and count the number of times I told myself to quit. I did it for a week. I quit over 300 times. When you’re constantly telling yourself to stop doing something, something is too hard, or this is not what I want to do. Usually the body follows the head anatomically. So therefore you just need to make the conscious decision to tell yourself the opposite. Nobody is holding you down, I hope, nobody is physically restraining you from succeeding. Of course everywhere you may look someone is telling you to go in a different direction but what you need to make as part of your daily routine among all the other things is telling yourself that you are your own person, and you have the confidence to do whatever you WANT TO DO. Not that you can do anything, that just confuses people. Understand the difference of what you have passion for, other than what you have seen on TV and just been motivated to do for a week. If you are truly passionate about something then nothing will stop you from attending in making yourself better. It will become easy and of course hard times will be mixed in but remember that it is all apart of the process of molding yourself and what you want to get out of each experience so maintaining that positive mental attitude will be the deciding factor on if you become one of the community or one of the best. Continue to encourage yourself, unless you can hire a coach, personal trainer, or someone just giving you compliments all day, still won’t matter until you tell yourself and do it so much that you start to believe it. Just has to be what you want. I have covered wants before and I can only hope that people continue to define what they want by what they are passionate about. The struggle is inside you so don’t play the blame game. Everything starts and ends with you and what you’re willing to tackle responsibility for. If your passion is key then turn it and go through the fucking door. Bangov Actual, out.

Confidence Is The Game

When money is the obligation then freedom becomes second. Obligation is defined as: an act or course of action to which a person is morally or legally bound; a duty or commitment. I happened to know a little something about duty, commitment, and the legal binding of signing your name on the line for years of dedicated service to your country. The morality of that I will let you decide. Years of your life you are obligated to has a different feeling. Every day you get up not because you have ambition to get up. You do it out of a sense of duty to your promise you made. When the day comes that you have established your duty based on your moral obligations to what you have created. It will become a part of you. Doing it everyday, and you won’t have a day off because it will consume you. The days you had before seemed distant, unimportant and a place saver for what was going on inside you. Just takes time. Which again is why I write so many other blogs about saving time, not wasting it on people that haven’t found their own way of life. They don’t have their vision, direction, or they just don’t care to compete. Common misconception is that when the race is over,win or lose that it is over. You are done. Look at any star athlete, celebrity, Olympic champion. Once the race or game has been won to prove themselves they are still at a constant. Life doesn’t end when you win. Life ends when it ends. Even after they have proved themselves they continue on for the next challenge, adventure. Whether it be wealth, love, or another physical pursuit. There are those who don’t have enough confidence in themselves in order to make the decision to pursue something. Also be very aware CONFIDENCE IS THE GAME. Look at life as it is only the things you want to do. You’ll be amazed at what world you can create for yourself. We always look to people of fame and fortune and say those are things I cannot do. I am not interested in those things. THEN PICK SOMETHING YOU LIKE. Nobody daydreams of what they wish not to be. Granted they may have flashes or decisions in order to stay away from what they fear to become. Only you can make those choices for yourself. Pick and choose based on what manifests in your mind. Create, create, create, dig, dig, dig. Nothing I have not said before, but I will continue to say it to get it through your big heads. Also a big head can still be small minded so stay hungry in your pursuit of knowledge and always stay confident in your abilities. You may think you’re in last place right now, may be broke, hungry, tired. In the game of life, if you’re not moving forward, then get out of the way. Bangov Actual, out.

Customer Service Is A Way Of Life

Customer service should be a class. No test, the only test is life. Seen some shit customer service in the past few weeks. See how you are with others, and let that transfer to your professional life, and see how far that gets you. Seen servers role their eyes for questions pertaining to their job. Gotten, just “I don’t know, and I don’t care attitude. Customer service has to be a priority when not only creating yourself, but a business, I myself have told a customer off but only when they are disrespectful. I do not mean they say anything demeaning, or they even insult you or your company, but at the point of threatening when they do not get what they want. Be mindful only in circumstances where there is threat of a physical altercation do you put your hands on someone. That goes for just life in general. That is one side of the spectrum. I am talking about keeping your cool when a customer is flat out screaming at you. To be put in these situations I want you to think to yourself, have I really done anything to upset this person. Of course not but always in the back of your mind I can probably do something to make them happy. Deescalating the situation before hand is all it takes when dealing with someone that is upset about how they feel they are being treated. Reassurance goes a long way, as well an explanation is always a way to get you talking and them to calm down. I know what you’re thinking, what if they insult you, they call you an idiot, they go after character, IT.DOES.NOT.MATTER. This can be utilized in a good way. Someone offended, or insulted you, understand if you’re working at a place where a manager is called that does not stand up for you, WORK SOMEWHERE ELSE. Company culture will define how you go about this, some cultures I’ve seen take it and it is not good for business. You cannot help everyone, and a company must be respectful of it’s employees. Of course unless that employee is in the wrong. Customer service is about giving the right impression even before the problem starts and a company that is able to fix a multitude of problems has a very strong history of repeat customers. Customer service takes away the customers notion that they are doing business with a company. You want it to be more personal, so make sure they know they are doing business with you. Sell yourself and the customer will develop a sense of trust in what you say. Which are very important to you especially if they work on commission. When people are treated In a certain way and shown a level of competence above others they are sure to return. Of course you will have bad days but just like anything else, it all is going to start with you and how you want to face the day. Can either be a good or bad day, choice is yours.

Are You Struggling, or Complaining?

If you own a horse, I don’t want to hear your problems. “I can’t afford shit.” Ya well I want to own a bear, or tiger like Mike Tyson, but I don’t because then my whole life changes around that animal. So my dog will do it for now. It is amazing how people will complain about their finances, and yet they have a horse, boat, 3 cars and a big ass house. So be honest with yourself and evaluate your situation and what you own. Are you really struggling? Or do you just like having expensive shit? Nothing wrong with that, I have expensive hobbies as well. I just tend to look at purchases like a choice. If they are not the essentials, like food, gas, rent, utilities. Then I can wait a month to purchase that new suit, or watch, anything really. It can wait and it is not the end goal, it is only going to give me happiness for about 10 minutes. Things accumulated are not what defines you, so don’t think that the more you have the happier you will be. In my experience what is done for others is what will define me. That is all I will focus on till the end of my time on this earth. I have had many jobs, made money in many different ways, but never had I realized that a passion for inviting others would be this easy to continue. I’m a communicable person. I believe in opening up communication, whatever that may mean to you. Remember this is Bangov, this is your choice and how you choose to view your life. I am simply here telling you what I am going through. All the questions, fears, doubts, I am going through just as you are. So never think you’re alone in how you’re feeling. All I ask is when you begin your journey, or if you have been at it for a while, make sure communication stays open. The world is always trying to help you in intricate ways that if you just take the time you may be missing what is needed right in front of you. Challenging yourself is supposed to be hard, but again how you decide to view it, you can either make it your prison, or you can make it your game. The world you create in your mind should be what you put on paper. Then paper can be constructed to become reality. Bangov Actual, out!

Path Of Most Resistance

I feel myself battling with all sides of me. What I could be doing. What I’ve dreamed of doing and What I should be focusing on. It is hard to dream and think that you could ever amount to what your dreams are because that is the point of dreaming. Stepping outside your own beliefs and having the confidence to commit to an ideal of yourself. You will probably feel as if you are running in circles as I have many times in pursuit of a passion. This is when you need to evaluate yourself. Really take time to write down, maybe say into a voice memo what you’re feeling right now. Yes feelings do matter, despite popular conservative slogans like, “Facts don’t care about your feelings.” Which is true they don’t when trying to argue reason and logic. This is me trying to instill a passion within myself. Does not happen overnight and I am tired of people giving up when getting rich quick scams tend to not be what they imagined. Not so instant. You better be willing to work for what you want or just be content with mediocrity. Do yourself a favor and look at your lives today and just think 10 years ago was I here? If you have made tremendous leaps and are out of the situation you were in, great. Just realize that 10 years from now when you are better than you are now, you’re still going to want more. May just not be of a financial pursuit. As I have always told friends, money is inevitable. If you’re constant then money should come as you are inevitably going to keep moving forward with your life. Of course we have all felt backed up against the ropes with a mortgage payment, or a credit card payment. Hahahaha slap me with a 35 dollar charge because I can’t pay on time while I am trying to figure my way through this thing called life, sure go ahead. No big deal, and it is not a big deal but you tend to make it a bigger deal then it is. Everything comes down to you. Three things, What could i be doing, What I have dreamed of doing, and what I should be focusing on? Choice is yours. Do you want to follow your dreams? Or are you OK with the 2nd or 3rd tier in order to feel fulfilled. Of course, finding;g love, having a family is all important, but this is about you and I will SAY IT AGAIN! Help yourself in order to help the masses. Can’t help get anyone out of a hole if you’re in the same hole, or bigger. That is the interesting thing about paths of least resistance. Choosing yourself as a path when you’re the resistance. Bangov Actual, out.
