hello everybody welcome to video 2 of the ambitious me I’m excited to get into this one last video we talked a lot about what I want to share on this channel and the value I’m trying to deliver and this video is gonna be about my journey and how I’ve gotten to this point why I’m here why I’m trying to share my message and spread it so my journey started I’m sure like a lot of people’s I was just unhappy I was unsatisfied this was back in 2016 I was unsatisfied with my life and where was going and where I was taking it which was nowhere specific I guess you could say so back then I had an office job a tech job and I was going to the office every day and I just wasn’t satisfied I wasn’t happy with the situation that was in I saw an ad for well also other things in my life just weren’t going well I wasn’t really happy with the people I was meeting I didn’t have a great close group of friends my romantic relationships I was interested in just we’re not panning out so all in all I just needed a changeI saw an ad online for a for a company that encourages people to become digital nomads and travel the world while they work remotely and I saw it I thought that’s perfect that’s what I want I’m going to do this so I left my company I left my friends I left my country and I left my my life behind I changed jobs to a company that would let me work from home and let me work remote and was okay with me traveling the world while I continued to work for them and all of a sudden more or less just like that my life totally changed I had a new job I was in a different country every month I was in anew city every month surrounded by a new friend new people all the time and this really opened my eyes and it really turned my entire world upside down as I learned how how other people live how other people make their money how other people build their own income and build their own businesses to support the life that they want to live and this was very inspiring for me and I decided I’m gonna keep going down this path because it seems like the right path it seems like the best path so I was introduced to entrepreneurship and to business and starting your own business to fund your lifestyle and this was a new concept tome I had been an employee ever since I was 13 years old and I remember this very clearly I had paused the traveling a little bit due to some family some family issues and I was sitting at my parents house at my desk in my room it’s thinking about what type of business I wanted to get into and how I wanted to be successful in business and what that was going to take and there was one day where I was thinking about it and I realized no matter what I do for business if I want to be successful I have to put myself out there I have to present myself to the world I have to share my idea I have to share my thoughts similarly to what I’m doing nowI have to create a product and convince people and influence people that they should pay money for it and that just hit destruct somewhere deep and I just decided I thought I can’t do this I I was defeated I fell to feed it I felt who’s gonna listen to me I’m gonna get rejected I don’t have what it takes I just can’t do this and it hit me so hard and so deep I just got off my chair and sat on the floor and probably almost cried I didn’t cry but I was probably pretty damn close and probably I should have and it would have been a nice release and felt for leaving but I just felt so so down so defeated and ever since that day I had had a deep dark heaviness just feeling in my chest of discomfort and pain and just a really heavy golf-ball-sized emotion just a sinking feeling just ever-present from that day on in the center of my chest and I was like that’s this isn’t right this isn’t healthy I need to get rid oft his I need to figure out what’s going on so that’s started my healing journey and ever since that day I’ve I’ve gone to coaches I’ve tried different types of therapy hypnotherapy tons of affirmations listened to a lot of music right a lot of books YouTube videos meditation all with the focus of trying to heal whatever this feeling was trying to get back to who I used to be trying to find myself or find my way and for2017 2018 and 2019 that was my focus and the biggest technique at the end of the day for me was meditation and words cannot describe or explain or justify the internal growth and transformation that I’ve gone through especially in the past year when I really started to focus on it but I was I look back now and it’s it’s kind of crazyI just knew there were signs that I knew something was just off about me about myself I was having brain fog I found myself stuttering one day and I thought to myself I don’t stutter what happened like what happened to me that I’m stuttering all of a sudden if I ever had a negative thought I would just be stuck on it like it’d be magnetized in my mind it’d be very hard to get rid of[Music]a neuroscientist or neurologist told meI had benign fasciculations there’s parts of my body which is kind of mini spasm here and there throughout the day and a neurologist said yeah that’s benign don’t worry about it and in my head I was like this isn’t right this isn’t benign this isn’t normal I didn’t used to be like this something’s wrong but they had no answer my my typing speed was dramatically decreased part of that is due to I tried a different keyboard layout and I don’t want to get into the details of that but I couldn’t type as fast as I used to in in in middle school or high school where I knew I could type super super fast without even looking at the keyboard and that was dramatically slower I was having gut problems I was having sexual problems I had that feeling in my chest almost every day and it was just there as a reminder like something’s wrong so going down the journey of trying to heal myself whatever needed healing from books videos music I came across certain types of meditation and certain strategies and techniques of meditation that really really helped and let life life-changing experiences through meditation and real quick a note on meditation is someone explained it well once where the word meditation is akin to the word sports if you say I do sports that doesn’t really tell the person enough for them to do that thing right when I say meditation it’s kind of the same thing there are so many different types of sports there’s so many different ways to approach meditation and I eventually just kind of think of it like I’ve tried multiple approaches and then kind of made my own sports game I’ve made my own type of meditation and through that I’ve been able to relieve that heavy feeling getting to a point of kind of neutrality and then by maintaining meditation practice blowing past that and getting to a point of positivity which is again been absolutely life-changing and now I live in theCaribbean the weather is beautiful andI’m surrounded by world-class amazing people where I live I work half as much as I used to do have a beautiful view I have a profitable business on the side which I’m growing and even starting another another one maybe two businesses that I have in mind so needless to say my life has totally changed for the better and it’s been a life changing unexpected you could maybe say miraculous journey and I don’t want anybody else to have togo through what I went through I would love to help other people speed up their journey and get to the best version of themselves faster because at the end of the day that’s what it came down to I wasn’t being the best version of myself and I hadn’t been for years you could even say decades and what I’ve done on the in the past the past year the past couple years is find a way to remove all of the layers that we put onto ourselves for being somebody else and it’s allowed me to discover who I really am and felt comfortable enough to be that person so that’s what I hope to get into with this channel that’s what I hope to share and hopefully can help you on your own journey wherever it is you are I’m still on mine it’s never ending that’s for sure it’s a lifelong journey of discovery and experimentation and just coming into our own so check out the website the ambitious me calm smash that like button and hit the subscribe buttonI guess
