What the Hell Life?

FAILING TO FAIL!

  Joseph Brann

Do YOU, like me, ever wonder, "What the hell life?" There’re just SO many things that don’t make sense, so many things that aren’t fair, and so many injustices going on that, unfortunately, this seems to be a real question life should be asked, if only it’d answer! Since I know NOTHING’S impossible, if life somehow became capable of answering questions, this would be one question I’d ask for sure! You probably know life’s not fair and “they” say nice guys finish last and, I guess that’s often true, but not always! I’m a nice guy, not as nice as I used to be, but still a nice guy, and life has beat me around so much a REAL part of me wishes life would get a body so we could fight and I could beat the hell out of and into it! But I believe I’ve talked before about how wishing is usually pretty worthless, since we clearly don’t live in a fairytale. Even still, I'm determined to prove nice guys DO NOT always finish last! I believe that in so many ways a lot, if not all, of us don't fully know why we were really created, what the point of everything is, or why life...the way it is...is even necessary and how it can be so cruel. But so much in life doesn't make sense to me. Something I’ve not said via blog, or even my memoir…which can help YOU in many ways if you’ll allow it and can still be purchased off amazon.com here at bit.ly/tcsom is that, when I died, I saw God face to face! 

He asked me to come back to life, yet I’ve literally had times since returning to life that I’ve stopped believing in Him. However, I cling to my belief that my memories, or at least some of them, from when I was on the "other side" are true, in my mind they have to be! But yet, still life doesn’t even almost make sense to me. I only make mention of God and the other side to show how, for me, life can be VERY confusing. I'm in NO WAY trying to convince ANYONE of anything spiritually or religiously…as far as religion goes, so much of it doesn’t make sense to me either. But I’m not trying to convince anyone of any such thing or even that God exists. If I’ve seen Him and’ve stopped believing in Him before, then I can easily understand how this can be a difficult subject for all. Yet I once again believe in Him. However, I hope YOU find some comfort from my telling you, even when we wonder, “What the hell life?” life can still be incredibly wonderful and continuing to face whatever it throws at you will be more than worth it, so keep going, YOU're incredible and can accomplish ANYTHING!

Last Time I'll Blog for a While!

FAILING TO FAIL!

  Joseph Brann

          This post will be the last time I'll blog for a while! I’m having mental issues and feeling very overwhelmed with everything going on at the moment so I think I need to take a brake from blogging. I’m not sure how long I’ll take a break for though. However, I’m NOT giving up and have over 270 past blog posts which you can view at any time and which I hope will help you stay JOEtivated! 🤪 Just to give you a quick example of how my life’s been overwhelming me lately, yesterday I was in SO MUCH pain I literally cried, I mean I cried actual tears! 😢 That’s just insane to me!!! I talk in great length about the pains I’m in just about nonstop in my memoir, which once again if you’ve not already gotten you can get it off Amazon with this link: bit.ly/tcsom 

                   My life hasn’t even almost made sense to me for the last just short of 21 years, December 10th this year will be 21 years since my wreck happened. Though this life I live doesn't make sense to me and my challenges are beyond difficult and exhausting to me, I'll still NEVER say my life's harder than anyone else's. Like I've said before, comparing is pointless, gets us nowhere, and I believe life's difficult for everyone. I don’t believe just because something’s difficult I should quit, and I’m not quitting blogging, just taking another break. I feel we need to try and make the best decisions for our situations and currently this seems to be what’s best for me. Just know, I still love you, want the best for you, and am NOT quitting, so PLEASE don’t quit either? Keep your head up and ALWAYS know YOU’re incredible!!!!! 👍🏼😁👍🏼 Until reading my next blog and even after, remember keep FAILING TO FAIL!

Talk to Me Thursday! 🏊‍♂️ Swimming...

FAILING TO FAIL!

  Joseph Brann

          Yesterday, for the first time in many years, I went swimming. 🏊‍♂️ I did so as a workout, but I only swam a little and spent the bulk of my time jogging in place. It got my heart rate up pretty quick and, from what I’ve researched, using water to workout in burns calories really well and is also a lot safer on your joints. I’m probably going to go swim, or more accurately stated, I’ll probably walk, or jog, in the pool some more today. After I was done in the pool, I sat in the hot tub for a while. That was really nice, and I intend to get in the hot tub again today. Anyway, I really like working out in a pool, even if just for a little bit! I suggest, if YOU want to get in a great workout and have access to a pool, that you'll use it. Hopefully you also have a hot tub to chill in afterwards, it’s AWESOME!!! 👍🏼😁 Until reading my next blog and even after, remember keep FAILING TO FAIL!

FAILING TO FAIL!

  Joseph Brann

          This’ll be a REALLY short post, but today I am strained, pained, and drained but still failing to fail! I’m not sure what’s going on but I’m just BEYOND exhausted even more than usual and it’s honestly driving me crazy! Yet, I’m not quitting and I will continue failing to fail, will YOU? 🤔 Keep going, we can!!! 💪😄 Until reading my next blog and even after, remember keep FAILING TO FAIL!

Congratulations 👏👍🏼 to YOU!!!

FAILING TO FAIL!

  Joseph Brann

          I don’t have much time today but wanted to say congratulations 👏👍🏼 to YOU!!! You’ve made it this far in your life and that is HUGE! I know you’re an incredible person, but it’s up to YOU to be the incredible person you’ve been created to be! Maybe you hear this everyday, or maybe you’ve never ever heard it, but I want you to know that you REALLY do deserve to be told congratulations for all the good you've done and still do! If you don’t feel you’ve done any good, I’d be willing to bet you’re incorrect. But, either way and ESPECIALLY if you feel you’ve not done any good, I STRONGLY suggest you go do some good, or more good, in this world! NEVER forget YOU’ve been created to be AWESOMELY INCREDIBLE, now go be AWESOMELY INCREDIBLE!!! 😄 And again, CONGRATULATIONS!!! 👏👍🏼 Until reading my next blog and even after, remember keep FAILING TO FAIL!

FINALLY Moving Forward!

FAILING TO FAIL!

  Joseph Brann

             I feel I am FINALLY moving forward! For a long time I’ve been wanting to get going with my speaking and all that involves but haven’t really known how to do so but this weekend I talked with my nephew and one of my best friends Kyle and he helped me make a list of the things I wanted to get done today. I was having trouble with my allergies when I was first getting up today and I was thinking I wasn’t going to do everything I’d scheduled to. I texted him and told him I wouldn’t be doing everything we’d planned but I’d do what I could. Then just a little later, I just got moving. I scheduled a phone meeting with a speaker and I believe life-coach who I’d messaged with on Linkedin before and who invited me to a 30 minute phone meeting, we’ve been messaging for a while now but with all the craziness I’ve been dealing with lately, I’ve not scheduled the call for a while, but I did so today. 

          Then I emailed a person who works with the athletic program at a nearby University and just asked if they could direct me to someone I could get a phone call with about speaking to their athletic program. I sent the email not even an hour ago and hopefully I hear back soon and will be able to get something set up. Additionally, I also spoke with the owner of a business, and businesses, about speaking to their employees and we’re supposed to get something set up. I also did a workout which consisted of walking and a high intensity interval training or “HIIT” workout but I did it as a beginner because of the pain and all I am in. So I’m feeling great that I didn’t make excuses and got done what I wanted to today. It’s AWESOME feeling like I’m FINALLY moving forward! Will YOU move forward with me? 🤔 I sure hope so! 💪👍🏼😄 Until reading my next blog and even after, remember keep FAILING TO FAIL!

How to Endure and Overcome!

FAILING TO FAIL!

  Joseph Brann

          Today I’ll be talking about how to endure and overcome! I’ve got FAR MORE experience than I’d EVER want to have with enduring, but being able to endure is something we ALL can do, even when we don’t want to. But to endure how difficult, cruel, and mean this life can be, you’ve got to make up your mind that you WON’T quit! Now there are times when I REALLY want to quit, but I don’t. As to how to endure, you’ve just got to make up your mind that you’ll face what you have to in your life and NEVER give up. Even after making this decision, there may be times you want to give up, BUT DON’T! 

                   By continuing to work to have the life you desire while facing whatever you have to, you will overcome whatever you’re facing! So, the short answer to how to endure and overcome is just to KEEP GOING! Even if physically you don’t have the strength to stand, as I’ve literally had this happen, you can still “stand” mentally by keeping yourself focused and not giving up, YOU CAN DO IT, now go do it!!! 👍🏼💪😄 Until reading my next blog and even after, remember keep FAILING TO FAIL!
