How often do you catch yourself thinking, “What the hell am I doing here?” It’s a question that many of us have asked ourselves at some point in our lives. Whether it’s at work, in a relationship, or just in our daily routines, there are times when we feel like we’re stuck in a rut and not living up to our full potential.
But the real question is, how often do we actually do something about it? How often do we take action to change our situation and make our lives better? According to UFC CEO Dana White, the answer should be always.
White is a man who knows a thing or two about taking action. He didn’t just build the biggest MMA promotion in history, he turned slap-fighting into a billion-dollar business. And he didn’t do it by sitting around and wondering what the hell he was doing with his life.
In fact, White’s motto is “do it now.” He believes that if you have an idea, a dream, or a goal, you should act on it immediately. Don’t wait for the perfect moment, just take the first step and figure it out along the way. And it’s this mindset that has made him one of the most successful businessmen in the world.
But it’s not just about taking action, it’s also about having a sense of humor. And White has plenty of that, as shown in a recent video that resurfaced on social media. In the video, former UFC champion Matt Serra can be seen attempting a “power slap” on White, only to fail miserably and fall to the ground.
White’s reaction to the failed slap is priceless. Instead of getting angry, he bursts out laughing and even offers to let Serra try again. The entire UFC world was in splits as they watched the humorous video, and it just goes to show the kind of person White is.
He doesn’t take himself too seriously, and he doesn’t let failures or setbacks discourage him. Instead, he uses them as fuel to keep pushing forward and achieving even greater success. And this is a lesson that we can all learn from.
Life is full of ups and downs, and it’s easy to get caught up in the negative moments and wonder what the hell we’re doing. But instead of dwelling on these thoughts, we should take a page out of Dana White’s book and take action.
If we have a dream, a goal, or a passion, we should pursue it with all our heart. And if we encounter obstacles or failures along the way, we should learn from them and keep moving forward. And most importantly, we should never forget to have a sense of humor and enjoy the journey.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not about where we end up, it’s about the journey we took to get there. And with the right mindset and a determination to take action, we can achieve anything we set our minds to, just like Dana White did with the UFC.
So the next time you catch yourself asking, “What the hell am I doing here?” remember the words of Dana White and take action. Who knows, you might just surprise yourself and achieve something great. And if all else fails, just remember to laugh it off and keep pushing forward. After all, that’s what makes life worth living.
