It's a Teddy Roosevelt thing. Technically from his Dad.

Read about it, in depth. Read about him, in depth.

His youth was full of illness and was never thought to amount to anything.

Dude was crazy. And became one of the most influential people in the modern era. He found a way to harness it. Get Action. It doesn't even make sense as a phrase, but read about it in depth, and it will.

His brother was also crazy....and died very young. He was seen as the one who would succeed. Handsome, smart, and confident.

Didn't work out that way. He did not Get Action. And succumbed to his own demons. Don't let that happen to you. Be Teddy, not Elliot. And yes, you do have a say in that. More than you will ever know. Until you do it.

While you're at it, read about when Teddy was shot and nearly killed, instead of walloring in it, he made himself cough a few times, no blood came up, so he figured he was fine and went ahead and gave a long speech shortly after. He truly wasn't fine, but his perception was that he was, and that is 99% of the ballgame.

Again, Get Action. Figure out what that actually means. It took me awhile, so take your time. Once you do though, don't let it ever leave you. Again, this guy was crazy as F, and became one of the most important people in the 1900s. Changed the world. For the better. Significantly.

National parks....Teddy.
Lots of other things....Teddy.

Not saying you will be pres, and that's not a good goal LOL, but Get Action, and you will be what you are meant to be.
