Episode 244 - Despair

In this episode, we talk about that thief of life and dreams. It has many forms and many subtle manifestations, but I call it despair. That feeling you have when there is no further recourse. When you feel you have nowhere to turn and you are finished in one way or another. Is it ever really true that there is nowhere to go? We can all experience defeat, and for a minute, feel totally beaten down. Is it required to stay there? Do we need to give up there?

Kellan talks about deciding to start with the podcast and why he chose to do that. He was committed to helping achieve the ultimate life. Why? Because he’s seen despair and struggle himself and knows that when you work on it every single day, you become good at it. Despair might come from different issues- health or work or anything else. People inflict pain and it’s natural. It’s also easy to get affected by anything. Feeling of having no way forward is common. The key is what you do with it.

There is always hope. Sometimes it is hard to find, but we need never give in to fear. The truth is that you only really die when you quit trying. Never give in to despair. That road leads to death, and you are too valuable. Pain is required. Suffering is optional. You can end it anytime you want to. Always know that all the help that you need in this world is available. Open your eyes to accept it and create the way to Your Ultimate Life.

Key Takeaways:

“The Ultimate Life is where you have purpose, where you have reason to get up every day and that is what drives you to have that purpose.”
“I started acting on what I knew.”
“Clarity is overrated. It is not found, it is created.”
“You simply declare that you’re gonna be done, never even knowing what that’s gonna involve.”
“I decide and go then through the work it took to change.”
“It’s really easy to get to a place where you see no way forward, you throw up your hands, you stab your heart.”
