There are lesson's everywhere if you just look for them. Why is Jim Shelvy sharing so many painful life experiences right now? The answer is simple, if you don't let go they will consume you. Here is a snippit from his latest blog, Lessons from a Rap God:

"Maybe you have never heard of the Rap God, but it’s Eminem. In the movie 8 Mile, which was “based loosely on his life”, Eminem was filled with fear and self doubt. As a result, he could never quite get the words out when it mattered. And it really mattered to him because the movie was about the rap battles in Detroit. When would there ever be a more important time to be able to get your words out than if you’re in a battle of words!

What happened when he failed? He was made fun of, bullied and challenged yet he remained undeterred.

He was undeterred because he believed in what he was doing. He believed in himself. Not only did he believe in himself, but he \did so when no one else did or could.

At the end of the movie, he was in the grand finale and he did something that no one had ever done, at least in the movie. He let it all go, but not in the way that you think. That is the subject and the lesson of this blog and how I will take control of my life once again.

What happened in the final battle...he took away the ammunition for his rival. He trashed himself. Not because he didn't see any value in himself, but because he took away his opponent’s weapon.

Look, Everyone has haters.

Some have more than others. I have a laundry list of haters. FULL DISCLOSURE!!! Some hate me because of my success and some hate me because I deserve it!
