The end of the year fills most men’s heads with new goals and dreams but sadly few do enough thinking, reenvisioning and rethinking. What if the activity before we leave 2025 is to become more instead of getting more by the end of this year point? I find it interesting how each year we get into the same rut — the pressure, the plan making, the promise making — but what a man’s life changes with is not what he resolves to do January 1st. It is what he resolves upon before the end of December 31st. Here are 10 things that you can do before we leave 2025 and plunge into the year 2026 with vigor, perception, and self-respect — the things backed up by the facts of science, wisdom and practicalities. 1. Audit Your Life, Not Just Your Year Before you set new goals, sit with your journal and ask: What drained my energy this year? What made me feel truly alive? This kind of reflection helps you align your direction with your truth. 📘 Inspired by : “ The Mountain Is You ” by B...
🪷 You Are Not Broken — You Are Becoming
We live in a world that moves too fast. A world that constantly tells you:
“You should’ve been there by now.”
“You should’ve achieved more.”
“What’s wrong with you?”
And slowly, unknowingly… we begin to believe it.
We carry the weight of these thoughts like a silent burden:
That maybe we’re behind.
That maybe something is wrong with us.
That maybe we’re broken.
But here’s the truth:
You are not broken.
You are becoming.
🌱 The Seed Does Not Doubt the Tree Inside It
In one of his most powerful teachings, Gaur Gopal Das shares a simple yet profound truth:
A seed holds the blueprint of a massive tree inside it.
It looks small, fragile, meaningless. But it has potential waiting to unfold.
And just like that seed, you have greatness within you.
But what happens when the seed is buried under soil? It’s dark. It’s quiet.
There’s no sign of growth for a long time.
Most people give up in this phase — the waiting. The silence.
But this stage is not your end.
It’s the beginning.
You’re not stuck. You’re planted.
🧠 Your Pain Is Not Proof That You're Broken
We often mistake our pain, confusion, or delay as evidence that we’re failing.
But what if your discomfort is not destruction — it’s construction?
What if life is building something within you that just takes more time?
Maybe you’re not supposed to bloom yet.
Maybe your roots are still growing — deeper, stronger, quieter.
Stop asking, “Why is it taking so long?”
Start asking, “What is it preparing me for?”
🧘♂️ Healing Is Not Linear — And Neither Is Growth
You don’t become the best version of yourself overnight.
Some days will be full of light. Others full of doubt.
And on those dark days, remember:
Becoming takes time.
Mountains aren’t shaped in a moment. Trees don’t rise in hours.
You are a process, not a product.
So give yourself permission to evolve slowly.
To grow with patience.
To unfold with trust.
🔁 Stop Measuring — Start Trusting
When you compare your journey to someone else’s, you forget your own magic.
Some trees bloom in spring. Others in autumn.
Some souls rise fast. Others rise deep.
There is no delay in divine timing.
What’s yours will never miss you.
The only question is:
Can you wait without giving up on yourself?
💬 You Are Becoming
Every scar, every failure, every silent season — it’s part of your becoming.
●You are not the lost man.
●You are the learning man.
●You are not behind.
●You are being built.
↪️So today, I invite you to whisper to yourself:
“I am not broken. I am becoming.”
●Let that truth settle in your heart.
●Let it replace the noise of the world.
Let it remind you:
Your time is coming. Trust it. Live into it. Grow through it.
Because one day…
🌳 The seed will rise.
And when it does — it will become the tree it was always meant to be.
