No person is an island, but they can make one heck of a ship

When you get to know yourself you realize that others, well they are not the most important thing to your survival... that is you, your instincts and your relationship with the divine... that’s what going to carry you through.

Friends will come and go, Love will come and go, but without a solid self (some would term this ego) then you are in trouble. A self-confident person is important to be successful in the world. If you don’t believe in yourself then what can you believe in. Who else out there is going to do a better job at your life than you are. We are the heroes we want to be, but society has trained us to view ourselves as limited myopic cell phone dwellers. We are anything but...

Our confidence has to come from something unshakable and unalterable... we have to build a mountain of strength in ourselves to use at any future point... this is why training is needed... without it... we are riding on our past accomplishments.... which.... could be augmented everyday with further advancement from our efforts in becoming better day by day.... you are the ship moving from port to port looking to find your next adventure... unfortunately people cannot usually ride on your ship for a long period of time... they can only observe your majesty from afar.... build the most helpful ship to ever sail the seas of life....
