So guys. I just want to say thank you for supporting the us people podcast for the past five years. And we look forward to sharing another new theme song with you. Let's go. Hey guys, and welcome to another episode of the us people podcast. In this episode, I decided to speak to you myself. It's been a while. And I just wanted to articulate a few things to you because throughout all the episodes, it's one thing that. I wanted to make sure that was resonating with you all, is to hear people's stories from their point of view, knowing that we all go through things in our lives, and every day can be a fighting battle for each and every one of us. But the one most beautiful thing that I've always understood about life, in every challenge, is that it's not There is a beautiful destiny for each of us and one thing I always say to people is not to look at somebody else's life and compare themselves. That's something that you shouldn't do. A lot of the time we do that because we feel that we're not on the same pathway or destiny as them. We feel like we're not where we should be in our lives. And that's the funny thing about life. When should you be somewhere just because somebody else got there earlier? And one thing, one of the most important things is to understand that you don't know how that person got to where they are. Today. So don't compare yourselves to them because like I said your destiny is different, you are different, your life is different, your plan for life is different. So there's something I wrote and I want to express it and articulate to you so you can be the gatekeeper of your own life. Being the gatekeeper of your own life is a reflective responsibility that carries the immense power and freedom. You are the one who controls what you contribute to the world and the essence of who you are. In a world where people with power often close doors simply because they can, it's crucial to Understand and know that unless you give someone else the authority to dictate your path, you hold the key to your own fulfillment. As the gatekeeper of your destiny, you have the ability to unlock doors, to open opportunities that align with your goals and aspirations. You determine the direction of your life. and the path you decided to follow. No one else can grant you access to a fulfilling life. That power lies in solely you. Similarly, as the gatekeeper of opportunities, you have the authority to size the chances that come your way and create new possibilities for yourself. By recognizing and embracing opportunities, you pave the way for great success, growth, and personal development. Furthermore, as the gatekeeper of kindness, it's one thing I love. You have the ability to spread positivity, compassion, and empathy in a world around you. By choosing to approach others with kindness and understanding, you have now enriched their lives, but also cultivated a sense of fulfillment and connection with yourself. By being the gatekeeper of hope, means holding on to optimism and belief in a brighter future. Even in the face of challenges and uncertainty, which we all definitely go through, by nurturing hope with yourself and sharing it with others, you inspire resilience, perseverance, and a sense of possibility. It's important to understand that people who seek to control you Can only do so if you allow them to. By recognizing your own agency and power, you can resist the efforts to be manipulated or limit yourself by who they are. One of the most beautiful things is that knowing this gives you the power to shape your own pathway. Each new day presents opportunities to pursue your deepest dreams and aspirations. But don't get me wrong, people are always going to have their opinions. But never let somebody else's opinion affect your dream and goal of where you want to go. To be and how you want to achieve it. By taking action and moving forward with your determination, you can turn your aspirations into reality and create a life that you've always wanted, needed and desired. One of the most beautiful things that I find people overlook all the time is the power of silence. Sometimes silence can be the most powerful in words by listening, observing, and acting. Thoughtfully, you can size opportunities that may have been overlooked or even unnoticed. That happens often. By embracing the quiet strength of observation and reflection can lead to unexpected opportunities, insight and prevail you forward onto your journey to a more fulfilling life in what you again desire. In the essence of being a gatekeeper of your life, it means recognizing the agency of who you are, embracing opportunities, spreading kindness and hope, and holding onto the power, the key word is power, to shape your own destiny. By taking control of your path and assessing your authority, you can unlock doors to a fulfilling, determined life. And that's one of the most fascinating and beautiful things that you can do for yourself. Remember, your life is your life, and I'm not here to tell you how to live your life. But remember, you are a person who has purpose, you are a person who has power, and you are a person that controls the destiny of who you are. Remember that. Nobody is perfect. should be able to turn around and tell you where you can or cannot go, even if they try to, but sometimes it takes us time to learn because we're in a situation that we need to learn something from and sometimes that can take days, months, or even years. But regardless, when you learn that lesson, embrace it, take it forward and remember nothing in life is a mistake, it's a lesson in order for you to learn so that you can continue the strength of who you are. Guys, thank you for listening and as always, please continue to be kind to one another. Through the darkness of the night, you'll be guided through the light. Oh, yeah, set me free so I can saw your journey. Just move on so you can be free. Spread your wings and let the wind guide you. I will be soaring through this journey. We are falling. I'm so full of courage. You can win if you try. Redirect. Yes to you, you see the power. Yes. If you fly like a superman, spread your wings and let them win.
