    This article is something I've read and re-read. I see a lot of people here searching for something. Trying to take their minds off of their addiction. They are seemingly lost. They need something but don't know what. I challenge you to do those things that have been on your mind. Go mountain climbing. Win that tournament. Become a Chess master. Kill that deer. Don't sit around and waste time. Be efficient. Be courageous. Take action in your life.

    Awesome man. Start a journal so you can reflect on how far you've come when you get going! This will be great to come back to and see the things that have changed in your life when you have an urge to relapse.

    Picked up a couple of great quotes in that article:

    "We have become so focused on results that our actions have become a secondary concern.
    We judge men based on what they have instead of what they do. We signal our ideals instead of embracing them."

    - This really sums up our KPI/Stats society

    "A world that is increasingly confused, uncertain, and paralyzed is calling out for men of action. We need to stop thinking and start acting. Stop looking at the big red button and push it.
    Stop planning and take a step forward. Stop talking about grit and take a hit."

    - Another great quote and something that reafirms my belief that what we are all working toward here is correct.

    Thanks for reading it man! I know it's a long article but it gives me motivation every time I read it, and if I am feeling low on that motivation that article really kicks my a** into gear. Really helps me get back my focus. I am glad you took some things away from it. I too have a favorite quote from the article it is...

    "Motivation (and passion) will follow you if you have the balls to go without them."
