Sunrise, Fellow Ascenders! ЁЯОЦ️
I get it. There are days when the motivation just
feels…gone. You’ve been putting in the work, but you're not seeing the results
yet. The finish line feels so far away. You start to wonder if your goal is
even possible. That little voice of doubt starts to get louder, whispering,
"Maybe this is as good as it gets."
This is a feeling we all experience. It's the moment when
you need more than just grit; you need a fresh spark. You need a reminder that
what you’re trying to do has been done before. You need to borrow some energy.
You need to look at someone else's fire and let it fuel your own.
Success leaves clues. And the most powerful clue isn't
some secret hack or magic pill. It’s the story of someone who has already
walked the path you're on. Their struggles, their setbacks, their victories—all
of it is a blueprint for your own journey. When you feel uninspired, their
story is your fuel.
I once worked with a young entrepreneur who was feeling
stuck. He had a brilliant idea for a social impact company but was overwhelmed
by the complexity of fundraising and building a team. He was on the verge of
quitting. I told him to stop looking for immediate results and instead to find
someone whose journey he admired. He started reading about the founder of a
non-profit he respected, watching interviews, and listening to their talks. He
discovered that this person had faced the exact same challenges he was facing
now—and had found creative ways to overcome them. Seeing that someone else had
done it before him—not magically, but through relentless effort—shifted
something in him. He realized his problems weren't unique. They were part of
the process. He wasn't just building a company; he was writing his own
"Fire Tale." He learned to borrow the energy from that founder's
story to fuel his own, and that one shift made all the difference.
This isn’t about comparing yourself to others. It’s about
leveraging the collective wisdom of those who have gone before you. It's about
recognizing that you don't have to figure everything out alone. Your goal might
be unique to you, but the journey of ambition, fear, and transformation is a
universal human experience.
The Gita teaches us that we can learn from the actions of
great souls. The actions of the wise are a model for others to follow.
Similarly, the paths of those who have succeeded are a guide for us. When your
own flame feels like it's dimming, look to their fire. Let it light your way.
Your journey is a part of a larger, epic story of human
achievement. And the more you immerse yourself in the stories of others, the
more you’ll believe in the possibility of your own. When you read their
"Fire Tales," you’re not just gaining inspiration—you’re getting a
crash course in resilience, strategy, and what’s possible.

feels relatable to your current struggle. Find one lesson or one piece of
