Listen "If you bury your emotions you will not succeed - Branden MacKenzie"
Episode Synopsis
If you bury your feelings and emotions you will not succeed.
I am talking true success - real joy, real happiness, real peace ....
How many times?
How many times have you buried your feelings and emotions in life.....
Sit with this because if you don’t get this right - if we don’t get this right we will lose the gift of today.
THE STORY: Was walking in the AM early listening to the Warrior Audio App - powerful tool I leverage daily.
My mission is to move my body and my mind. By listening learning I am earning a bit of clarity, certainty, faith as I step into this crazy thing called life.
On this particular day Coach Garrett discussed how decades ago - feelings plus emotions equals death when it came to the young men sent off to War.
On the battle field it was about survival - get to the end. That mindset was brought home and I believe has influenced us ever since.
5 years military Infantry deployed coming home on leave numb thinking ... don’t get comfortable because its not over .... I gotta go back.
Stay faded, stay sedated and just get through it. Don’t show emotions, bury those feelings and drive on.
13 years as a business owner - one that I enjoyed and embraced and yet over time that business owned me.
I became faded, sedated and like the military began to bury my emotions. 2 years living the Warrior way and I see the truth with a fight to own that truth — to own today.
How crazy is it that the key to our success right now is raw feeling, raw emotions....
What separates us is not our ability to be like a certain group, to act in a certain way..... forget that false lift shine...
So many are faded in the false lift of looking good within a frame of life they dont even belong... I know because it was me.
THE QUESTIONS - IF YOU HAVE THE COURAGE TO OWN THE MIRROR
Where in your life within your body, spiritual world, family, business - where have you buried your feelings and emotions that you know - they were not meant to be buried.
WHY IS THIS RELEVANT:
Never been a harder time in the history of mankind to be - who we were always meant to be.
Not because there is a lack of opportunity.
Not because we don’t have the means.
It has never been harder because the world we live in is so sedated within reflections that are the furthest thing from real.
I know I have lived and continue to battle. My own struggle to just be me.
It’s the flipside of sedation ( bury those raw feelings and emotions ) that inspires me though
When I listen to coach Garrett or a brother embracing a struggle, a victory I know I am amongst something more....
It’s a breath of fresh air.
To cross paths with a man or woman becoming.
Being true with feeling emotions - all that shit we have buried brought to life within moments of not seconds.
That’s the good stuff!!!
LESSON:
Raw feelings and emotions leveraged within Warrior stacks turned into light brought to life within the actions taken - I will consistently earn my faith, my presence, my courage, my becoming.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?
How will you leverage the raw emotions and feelings within today?
I have one recommendation - join the Wake Up Warrior Challenge!

A father, husband, brother, a son, a friend fighting to become the best I can be! This challenge has giving me the ability to pivot, to learn, grow - gain clarity I could only earn within this process. I believe its not the destination - its about the journey and the man we are becoming on a day to day bases.
Becoming a better man, husband, father - a fighter so that I can continue to stand for what matters in life.
I don’t want you to join the challenge!
I don’t need you to join the challenge!
I just believe you will rise within the challenge for you, your family - your journey.
My responsibility is to lead you to the door as someone did for me.
Step with courage brother!
