Cut the Crap and Get Real

Tonight was our guest event at Choice Center. I had a couple close friends attend the workshop with me and that meant a lot. Anytime someone gives their time, that's a precious gift that I don't take lightly. I have not felt the support or network of people here in Las Vegas like I did in Atlanta. I feel like I'm at the start of something great now. I've met some incredible people and look forward to deepening the friendships I've started.

They asked us to share how life’s been since Sunday night. One thing came to mind. I told the group tonight I feel like I’m drowning in a sea of bullshit.

There is so much bullshit people put out in the world, it’s hard to see someone for who they truly are. People show up behind their stories, interpretations, perceptions and beliefs about life that they don’t even know what the truth is anymore.

I find myself rising slightly above it and now recognizing it from a different level.

The only way I can describe it is having an out of body experience where I’m separate from it and looking at it from outside instead of being in the thick of it. I also have realized this is why I’ve felt at times like I’m an alien from another planet not messing well with people and their stuff. It’s also funny when people around me don’t want to take responsibility for their behaviors and actions and try to lay it back on me.

Well I got news, Craig’s not buying the BS anymore. I’m not buying that there’s something wrong with me. I’m not buying that I’m not good enough anymore. I’m not buying that I’m not attractive enough. I’m not buying it that I’m something less than a powerful man.
