Guys, with the upcoming Autograph signing in Milford on June 1st I thought I would take this opportunity to repost this blog written by Matt Hardy on his myspace blog today...these two are hotter than ever and always nice for the fans to see the personal side and how hard things can really be for the stars--Enjoy!
An Outpouring of Raw Emotion...
Ladies and Gents, it's one of those periods of time. It's when so many things are going fantastic but there's still little monkeywrenches being thrown into the master plan. I'm so happy with where I'm at in life, but I refuse to become complacent. I'm always hoping to get the maximum potential out of everything I put my fingerprints on. So when things stall and obstacles lie in front of me, I march onward--I either go around or over them--but I always march onward. Considering I can't control everything, sometimes I get motivated to try harder and strengthen other facets of my life. Right now is one of those times. And I write the best when I'm mentally and emotionally supercharged. That's when I'm most able to ooze raw emotion--and I do it randomly and all over the place. Try to stick with me. I just put my iTunes on shuffle and I'm gonna let it flow...I fight failure with everything inside of me. It's ok to fall, but don't let yourself fail. Always believe there's light at the end of the tunnel--because there is. Have faith, regardless of your religion beliefs. We as human beings need something to believe in--and for me, myself and my faith is my nucleus. I need to always believe that things will be ok, that things will always work out. I've been like this since day one, and I'll be like this to my last day. That unforeseen faith is what drives me day to day. The leap of faith I took when I set my heart on being in the sports entertainment business guaranteed me nothing. I busted my ass and had faith that I would succeed. I had faith that Jeff and I would make livings at professional wrestling. I had faith Jeff and I would one day become tag team champions. I had faith I could survive on my own as a singles competitor. I had faith I would find happiness again when I lost the two biggest loves of my life. I had faith I would come back and be greater and more decorated after being fired from my dream job. I have faith I'll one day win the big one. No jackoff can convince me or detour me--of anything I know I can do. I just have to continue to have faith that God will keep me healthy.I've worked hard for everything I've gotten. No one has given me anything. My position that I've busted my ass to obtain gives me incredible responsibility and power. I am power. And I'm proud of that because I use it responsibly. I have a voice that's strong and loud due to the life I've created for myself. Nothing makes me happier than to put a huge smile on a kid's face and watch them light up inside--especially if they've had a tough life. Nothing makes me happier than inspiring people to go for what they dream of. Nothing makes me happier than helping people overcome their hardships and problems when I can offer solid advice that they can believe in. I am a role model. And I hold that in the highest regard. If you're looking for someone that's real to draw inspiration from, I'm your guy. Matt Hardy is the definition of realism. From head to toe, from start to finish. I have fortunately been put in a position to be able to make a difference in this hard world. And I have--but I'm only starting to scratch the surface.Anything is possible--it really is. But I have no patience or tolerance for laziness. In the last 3 months, I've been home for 7 days. Everytime I rest, I fall asleep. On the plane tonight, I fell asleep. When I touch a bed, I fall asleep. I'm fatigued and exhausted constantly--this life I have doesn't come without a price. I have no tolerance for laziness. If you're serious about doing something that's important to you, don't you dare half-ass it. Give it everything, make it a lifestyle. If you do, things will start to happen. Nobody can stop passion and drive. The WWE didn't have a choice when it came to rehiring me. If I work hard enough on all my talents that pertain to my craft, they won't have a choice but to continue to feature me in bigger positions. I control my destiny. You control your destiny. My success comes with physical pain, constant fatigue, and an inconsistent home life. You will always be forced to make sacrifices in life. You just have to prioritize what's important to you at each current moment. I feel for people who are struggling to get where they want to be if they're hustling. But I have no compassion for lazy people who complain about where they're at when they don't deserve better. The bottom line is this--don't make excuses, make headway through hard work--and be prepared to make sacrifices.Thank all of guys who complimented me on my match with Mr. Kennedy, I greatly appreciate it. It was a big win for me, and it was most certainly a fight--we beat the sh*t outta each other. Thanks for sticking with me through thick and thin, I greatly appreciate it. Please continue to be in my corner, we've got a long way to go. I'm starting to doze off so it's definitely time to go to bed. Be well, and until then...Quote of the day - "This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality" - Tool, ParabolaMatt
