Go Hard or Home, No in Between

Most people know the quote Go Hard or Go Home, but like most quotes the key is not knowing it but utilizing it. Utilizing it means you don’t half-@ss anything. On a grander scale, you’re not pouring your cup of life into both the Pain of Discipline & the Pain of Regret cups. Choose one.

Previously, I touched on how to develop a Too Blessed to be Stressed spirit. In this post, Karrine Steffans notes her Go Home mindset, “I understand how important it is to stop trying sometimes … It’s gonna’ work out the way it’s supposed to work out & you just give it up.” This Go Home mindset complements her Go Hard mindset. In another interview, Steffans explains, (5:52) “I’m good at everything I do … I’m not gonna’ touch anything unless I plan on doing it better than anyone else you’ve ever met in your entire life. That’s how I like to do things; that’s the energy I put forth in everything.” The Go Hard and Go Home mindsets are one in the same; you can’t have one without the other.

Don’t be in between. If you decide to do something go all in with it regardless of ____________ because you’ve got real pride to become your best/truest self … or don’t do it. This mindset is about being relentless with certain things, while also saying So Be It to others if it’s not for you (at the time). It eliminates extra energy – You only think about if you do something; there is no confusion over how it’s done. There should be no “effort meter” where your effort fluctuates, only an On/Off switch that is automatically activated when you decide to do something. So with everything you potentially do, make a decision: Go Hard or Go Home.

 

One thought on “Go Hard or Home, No in Between

  1. This makes perfect sense especially to mah at this moment, sometimes I wonder if I’m doing the right thing in life. I feel like sometimes I’m that person that is in between, but maybe if I try to be more relentless I wouldn’t have this problem. I know I can go further in mah life then where I am now today, im trying and trying but sometimes I get over whelmed in the process and I feel like I need to just give up, it breaks mah heart because I know I can be better and I know I can do better. I think I worry too much, I think I need to set a steady pace in mah life so I won’t feel or get to that overwhelming stage. I know what I want to do and what I need to do in mah life as far as getting it on track. This time around I just need to focus on what matters and stop being in deep thoughts about everything and take one step at a time. I choose to GO HARD!
