Building SUPERIOR Self Belief Is Easy, Actually - Miyamoto Musashi

How often do we follow the crowd not because it aligns with our own beliefs and goals, but simply because it's what everyone else is doing? Musashi had a unique approach to everything he did, daring to be different.

You see from the time we were kids we're taught that the safest way to live is by following the same path as everyone else. We worry about what others might think or say. We don't want to be judged or criticized, so we play it safe by blending in. But the people who make a difference in the world are always the ones who are brave enough to be themselves. 

In his life, Musashi was the epitome of the Lone wolf. He wandered the countryside challenging the best swordsman he could find. He spent years living in isolation studying strategy and philosophy, and that's a key insight for anyone seeking extraordinary results. The higher you aim, the more you'll find yourself taking a different path from most people. You'll face criticism and others might question your choices or try to pull you back to what feels familiar to them. But you need to understand that this separation is part of the journey both in your mind and sometimes in your physical space.

Musashi understood that true strength comes from within. He lived this truth as a young man. He rejected the conventional path of serving a feudal lord and chose to pursue his path as a ronin, a masterless samurai. Now it's important to understand that everything you're looking for already exists within you. The source of abundance, joy and fulfilment lies in your own heart and mind. This doesn't mean you shouldn't pursue your ambitions. It's important to have goals and work hard to make them come true. But as you chase your dreams, remember to prioritize your relationship with yourself.
