It’s hard to stay afloat, trying to get back to prudence, stuck on basics and simple, have to go from simple to being prudent.

It’s hard to do everything alone only to be stuck with people with lack of drive or similar minded people, tried reaching out so many times, only to very little avail, gonna have to do certain things on my own, gotta be organized, visualize and get to my check points, work, gym church. Do errands, and have all each increments and pieces constantly accounted for and tagged in.

Always knew that you should never focus on a job, you should focus on a career, something long term, something you enjoy doing, that also has perks and pros and fits into a positive and progressive being. It seems every time I am just about to cross the finish line, i always get denied or some crazy calamities takeaway all the things I need to hit the goal, it’s friggen frustrating because when I am denied or lose my shit, always get stuck and end up taking it out on myself which clouds my judgement or take to bad habits.

Have to get pass that and focus on my priorities and goals and knock them out one and a time, frustration is good as I know I am making effort to solidify them, but exhaustion and fatigue set in both mentally, and physically and even spiritually I feel smashed down.

Need to one up and reach out again to stay positive and stay consistent, which is retardedly hard. But I know where there is struggle there is progress, but I can’t bullshit myself already, if I’m gonna be in it has to be all in, and be rigorously discipline, even if it means going without certain things, also have to strike the hammer while the iron is hot, for once i backslide and procrastinate, it is an arduous task to kindle the fire back, once it’s burning, gotta keep it going and burn the midnight oil. Thankfully with studying a little stoicism to being pragmatic about things, to toughen my skin and have alternative methods, to study a little Buddhism and click in some Confucius and Lao tzu for some practicalities, and bounce towards the spiritual teachings and practices of the Bible.

Along side those as base, turn to the more recent wise business men who have those teachings, Jim rhon, Brian tracey, Zig ziglar, Tony robins, and Les brown. To have all their books, to watch their videos and also participate in their seminars. That way certain aspects are gained. Those guys are a must have in your repertoire of profession.

Even more so people to talk to in person, a social worker, case manager, friend, pastor and or gym trainees, a consistent of this is needed for progress.

Almost there, ABC-123. let’s do this.

Hi Si,
I worry about you. You are pounding Quotes and Scripture into your brain to keep you going just like I did for a couple years. It takes great strength and determination to do that so I understand. They are powerful and made me a stronger, better person. About a year ago they started to lose their potency for me. NEVER their value but their powerful potency for motivation. I refer to my quote library everyday for support and guidance but I had to find other paths for daily motivation. Are you experiencing the same thing? Am I prying too much or getting too personal? Be honest, you won’t lose what I consider a friendship.

I would really like to know the tangible progress or obstacles you are making towards the truck goal but that is private stuff and I understand.

Yeah it does lose its lacker after a while, but regardless they help. They are a portion of a increment, not a piece or a whole, the most important part of them, is not the quotes, but the books, which help like glue to keep the overall goal to be intact.

Every piece counts, like Jim rhon states, everything effects everything else, I know that it can be both good and have some detrimental sides to it, because you mask your intentional feels, what you really wanna say. But zig ziglar always states…

positive thinking won’t allow you to do anything, but it will allow you to do everything better than negative thinking will.

Jim and Zig had different ways to applying things, and they disagreed with a lot, like jim states that affirmations without action can lead you to delusional, this is true, thats why we have to keep our diligence and tracking our progress, and if we do backslide, we must really collaborate on it.

I can’t lie, I already was climbing out of a ditch and slid back alot, but I know that if I can just get passed these last hurdles I have a chance, it’s so true that it’s always at the near end we either are too exhausted or we give up, but we have to really want it, yeah theirs a element of delusionment seeping in, but I know if I get passed the basics to simple, it will clock into place, have to get to a sound place and sound mind to retrieve it.

It is no way easy, I have to admit that I’m hurting, going through defeat after defeat, but I will overcome it, and get to soundness, even the quotes have to be in form of books, therefore like most great philosophers and businessmen state being organized is empirical, which I’m slipping on, but know that I have to ebb it in.

By the yard it’s hard, but inch by inch it’s a cinch, whats always the greater form of collaborating is the relationships and utilizing of your counsel, and if you slip off from that, you must do your best to either get back to wise counsel or have the intuition and discernment to work with what you got. Both are hard. But we gotta figure it out, like Jim says don’t stay on one thing for too long, you have to let go and move on even if things didn’t work out, so I’m ready for that. As beaten down as I am, mentally, physically and spiritually, I’m ready to leave it be and move on. I deserve that. I’m ready to change, to move on and let go. Almost there. I will overcome this, like Jim always states, don’t be grim, be serious. Face it. And follow through. Thats all we can do, that all we have to do, and that’s all I want to do. All the way.

Yesert, this is tourcher man, but I gotta do what I gotta do, this will solidify my faith. For it’s been rocky. But once I can snap in the gears I can run more fine tune in my my thoughts, habits and diciplined. Just gotta get outta dodge first. I have been messing up pretty bad with my goals and priorities, so once I get over this hurdle it’s time to turn the page and get to the next chapter.

CDL Tractor trailing all the way only way. Can use some of the money to fix my broken bones and mend into the warrior i no I am, like Jim says, be a warrior not a worrier. Bruce lee who says better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.

10-4 we have to change oh so constantly if we are to remain in happiness and wisdom with prudence must go hand in hand, simple in its self is ridiculously hard, but doable, and if you can manage the difficulties of the simple life than we must turn to prudencey. Woo is that hard. But worth it, like Jim says it is the discipline that turns the tides from joy to misery, bitterness and sweet, and that out of regret. It takes a lot of balls to stay straight on the path and having courage to move forward rightly. For narrow is the path, easy to give up, not so easy to make it through.

We’re gonna make it friend, tractor trailer and Riggs, Kachow. Gotta getter done and get to the good life.

No quitting, just resting, intervals, we can cross this finish line, giving my self 3 weeks, now we turn up the fire all the way, diligence, pull every string possible, Affirmate every day, pray twice a day, use scripture everyday.


Proverbs 14:23 In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.

Proverbs 14:24 The crown of the wise is their riches: but the foolishness of fools is folly.

Proverbs 14:25 A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.

Proverbs 14:26 In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.

Proverbs 14:27 The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

Proverbs 14:28 In the multitude of people is the king's honour: but in the want of people is the destruction of the prince.

Proverbs 14:29 He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.

Proverbs 14:30 A sound heart is the life of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones.

Proverbs 14:31 He that oppresseth the poor reproacheth his Maker: but he that honoureth him hath mercy on the poor.

Proverbs 14:32 The wicked is driven away in his wickedness: but the righteous hath hope in his death.

Proverbs 14:33 Wisdom resteth in the heart of him that hath understanding: but that which is in the midst of fools is made known.

Proverbs 14:34 Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.

Proverbs 14:35 The king's favour is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is against him that causeth shame.


Gotta be fluent this week, 3 weeks and that should be enough to cross the finish line, turn the page and get to the next chapter. Gotta go easy, but steady, consistent and persistent, serious and not grim. All the way is the only way. I will fight round after round to cross the finish line and will get my CDL. My mountain, my climb.

We live only once, so we have to fight for what we want to accomplish and achieve. I won’t take no for an answer. Where there is a will, there is a way. And there is a way, so tie a knot and hang on, than pull your self up, than tie another knot, and hang on, get closer and closer to getting out of the pits, than we are in the field of garden of success and prosperity. No ifs, and or buts. Not this time.

Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.

-Albert Einstein


There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal.

-Toni Morrison

I rebel; therefore I exist.

-Albert Camus


Silence becomes cowardice when occasion demands speaking out the whole truth and acting accordingly.

-Mahatma Gandhi


Dignity and respect has to do with ... your personal power to make a difference by being true to the best within you and letting that truth shine through your words and actions.

-Gail Pursell Elliott


Action, jackson, Action, satisfaction.

We Blaze Parallel Trails within the same clock. I like your quotes.

Guilt, Fears, Inadequacy = Immobility (NO MORE…. ENOUGH!)
All summer I’ve been driving 3 hours a day to and back from the school for a couple hours of self-training whenever the paying students were not using the truck. I have not laid a mower blade or a weed-eater sting to my property all summer. This was supposed to be the kids summer jobs I promised them. The forest has taken over my property and I’m embarrassed walking through weeds 6-7 feet tall through a path to get to my back door. My INADEQUACIES are being shoved in my face at every turn of my days. I test again in 14 days I MUST SHAKE THIS CONSUMPTION OF FAILURE BECAUSE IT COULD BE THE CAUSE OF MY FAILURES. This CDL-A is my golden ticket. I’m scared to death I’ll make another stupid mistake and fail again. School starts again and I DREAD facing the kids.

These GUILTS, FEARS and INADAQUACIES are sorted now. I see them for what they are. They are REAL but I CANNOT, I WILL NOT let them shut me down for 1 more minute. They had me confused and immobile for a couple of days. But Now That I See Them, I am going to fight like hell for the next 14 days! Beat that freaking depression into the ground. Time for a Goals Challenge today. My guilts, fears and inadequacies are all in my mind and I cannot fix them right now but my success lies in my actions, not my thoughts.

Excellent diagram, gears look better than a rock, for at least the gears have hinges, we can easily, grip and push it over one notch at a time. This way it’s a straight moving up the mountain.

We can visualize our hill, and mentally picture our goals and priorities in twined as the path, and we always see that man pushing a massive boulder, what a man thinketh he becomes, so we can picture a small rock or gear and have our way with it. I like that, as we control the thoughts, we can make it hard, or we can make it simple.

Make…it…simple.

This is parallel to the saying of you must be calm to fight a tiger. If we are calm, we shrink the opponent down, analyze it, and pick out its weak points, with our trials and adversity we can challenge with mental fortitude. What one man can do another can do.

It is important to also know that without friction and adversity we can’t be fighting for it, where there is no struggle there is no progress. So the fact that we have this frustration and friction against us is a clear sign we are getting closer and closer to attaining it.

And we will.

I am not giving up on my dreams and will not accept defeat, the odds of me of dying is almost nonexistent, if it comes it comes, but till that day I will not worry. We must remember the fine lines between spiritual and mental, if both can work hand in hand we can see things to our benefit. Instead of suppressing, learn to fast, instead of bottling things up, learn to express your frustration, instead of beating ourselves up, beat up the problem. Every problem has a solution.

Fuck my A, Gun for the B and get to the C. That is my mantra for 3 weeks. I’m not letting a piece of metal hold back my dreams, some people are afraid of change, afraid of adversity, afraid they might fail, not me, not this time, I will fail my way to success if I have to, I will also succeed my way to success as well…

All the way, is the only way. We got this, let get this bitch.

Simpleman123 OP August 3rd, 2022

My main Damie, listening to Jim always got me through tough times, and again I will call upon his wisdom to help strengthen my mind and spirit.

This is one man that gave me courage, and slept with a sound mind, that it’s just me, it’s me and my mission, me and my goals, me and my dreams, don’t care about appeasing others, similar to a stoic, stoicism and the Bible go hand in hand, it’s a tinge of calluses of guys like Marcus, Epictetus, Pythogarus, woven with the likes of David, Eziekiel, Daniel. Not all stoics are good, and commendable, everyone in the Bible was good either, Nimrod, Judas, Essau. So we must take pieces from the upright, the good and righteous, and learn to not do what the idiots, traitors and bad guys of their frames. For any true man, a industrial worker, construction worker, trucker by trade and heart would know that these are good and righteous men to follow, embody and take from.

And Jim, Les brown, Tony robins, and other great men, are there to aid us, we must grasp from their spiritual realm, and not forget that we have also our realm as well we must utilize, to have our own connections, our portfolio with our bosses, our coworkers, our business endeavors, our pastors, our gyms, we must use, nothing more let’s us come alive in the our world, the anxieties and fears are normal, like Tony said, if you don’t have problems, you have a problem, I am not exempt from my trials, I am not exempt from my adversities, I will humbly face them, not as a man of blue flame furry, but a man of practicality.

Speak it, believe it, receive it.

Thank you Jim, I will revamp on his books and audios until it gets done, until. And than move on. When the student is ready, the master will appear. I am ready.

Hey My Friend, Thinking of you.
Have you heard this video yet. "Choose Your Hard" #30. I think It's really powerful dude.

I hope you're pushing forward this weekend or resting and charging your batteries for the next attack. That's what we need to do to keep pushing forward. Resting is as important as Pushing as long as we don't lose our focus!

Remember... All The Way!
