Progress Requires Humility

New Years, next level. - Now that it’s New Years you’re gonna hear a lot of next level talk. I was hearing it 3 months ago. Of course everyone wants to reach new heights but have you ever considered that the next level you need to go is down, not up? - I know this is mind blowing in a culture that only celebrates success in a linear progressive way but it’s true. Often times God needs to humble us before He exalts us. - That means that you may be going through what feels like a lull period or something that you’ve been through before. Don’t be discouraged. There’s a lesson to be learned. It’s tough though when you see other people apparently taking steps forward while you’re standing still. It’s frustrating to not see immediate results. Especially for people my age, it can be frustrating to see our peers with good jobs and good relationships seemingly making big progress in life while we’re still stick at the ramen noodle in the microwave stage. - It’s all part of it. Just because it doesn’t look like you’re making progress doesn’t mean you aren’t. Accept the process and know that sometimes you have to go down to go up. - Be blessed and stay stoked 😎🤙 - • • • • • • #hawaii #passionpassport #nakedhawaii #eclectic_shotz #earthfocus #sunset #adventureculture #nature #earthpix #neverstopexploring #stayandwander #travel #awesomeearth #旅行 #sonyalpha #soft_vision #roamtheplanet #beautifuldestinations #bestvacations #ourplanetdaily #景色 #travelstoke #自然
