A few new LIFTwarriors recently asked what does LIFT mean, or what is the objective of LIFT that allows anyone to become a LIFTwarrior. Notice I didn’t say join to be one but become a LIFTwarrior, there is a difference. Becoming a US Marine, I have to share with you that it was the most difficult thing I have ever accomplished in my life. You don’t just go through the emotions but you fail and succeed through the processes and challenges. Becoming a LIFTwarrior you don’t just go through the motions of being curious or casually think about the challenges of questions and not do the in depth practical exercises we have to offer. Becoming a LIFTwarrior in your life means having patience, eagerness to learn, applying the principles and values that strengthen your character from within, your courage, and building your confidence to create beauty in your journey for not just yourself but for those around you. This is for those of you that have that deep desire to do greater things than what you are currently doing but need to strengthen your mental health and grow your confidence. This is also for all of you competitive nuts out there to change your focus to being competitive with yourself. Addressing mental health challenges is a deeply personal journey for us, and many of you have told us that you seek out inspiration and look for strategies to help you navigate through your struggles. If you are up for the challenge to take this seriously, we are as well. Let’s put meaning and understanding in becoming the best version you can be for yourself and those around you. It’s time for you to become a LIFTwarrior and create beauty in your journey
