Mike, you’re hitting me with truth today. Thanks, friend.
Certainly some things have been easier in as far as being able to get some to listen to my ideas. Being a female in military then government surrounded by men & mostly masculine-dominant thinking is what formed me.
As a former fighter, legitimately a lot of it is mental. There were times I’d stood up to far better fighters who outweighed me but my mental game was on point. Something that left with my youth. The broken back helped humble me as well 🤣
Brain has always been an issue for me. I’ve always leaned into my spirituality & have used it for my benefit & others when it felt appropriate.
As a child I was considered advanced placement in school & they locked us in tiny rooms to work all day. Feck outta here with that noise. Became disruptive so I’d be placed with majority of children cause I didn’t want to be “special.” Intelligence wasn’t highly prized where I grew up. Planted elsewhere my flower may have bloomed earlier. Who knows? I do, but it’s hard to accept that if I’d grown up in another home or another environment my life would be different. As such, my path was walked. Did the best possible. Most of my friends from middle school have ended up in prison, are drug dealers, addicts or are dead. That’s where their lives went. It was the neighborhood. Generational poverty & lack of vision by many allowed corruption & soul death. 😭
My parents (father & step-mother) moved to another neighborhood when I left for the Army. My siblings went to a “better” school & had opportunities that I never had. Grateful for that. I hold no ill-will towards my parents as I know they did the best they could with all their resources.
All of that to say, we probably agree. All of us have limited thinking from our own experiences & worldview. Right? Working together to make it work for benefit of all is best I know. Maybe not all. 99% is worth fighting for. The top 1% have enslaved us all & they need to pay their fair share. 🥰😊🙌

Hold on, so you've got 2 out of 3 life skills (strength and good looks) and you seem pretty intelligent too?
I've only got half of one, that's not fair 😂
Seriously though, yes, we all have our own path and challenges, it is the things that we struggle with that often drive us to excel.
Nothing is worth winning if it is won too easily.
Don't look at others, follow your own path, it is always the best way and enjoy what you have or have achieved, chances are it is hard earned and worth celebrating.
Thanks for sharing your story.
I wouldn't worry about the top 1%, they're mostly inherited idiots without a clue.
Bitcoiners are going to become the top 1% before the decade is out, enjoy the journey.
My goal is to be the best imperfect lightning node you have 🤣🤣🤣🙌😊
As a former Type A, it’s a constant battle to remember to stay confident in my choices. 😊🙏
