This Is The Root Of All Evil

by Bright Osadiaye, posted in Personal Development, Personal Growth 
Boris Pasternak, Russian poet, on 'the root of all evil.' 
He said, ''The main misfortune, the root of all evil to come, was loss of the confidence in the value of one's own opinion. People imagined that it was out of date to follow their own moral sense, that they must all sing in chorus, and live by other people's notions, notions that were crammed down everybody's throat.''

From the quote above, permit me to ask you the following questions:

Do you value your own opinion? Do you believe that it is out of date to follow your own moral sense? Are you just following the crowd? Are you living by other people's notions?

Difficult questions, right? Maybe, maybe not. It depends on what you want for yourself. If you want to make a difference in your life, in the lives of those around you, 
you must value your own opinion.
you must follow your own moral sense. 
you must sing your own song. 
and you must not forget who you are, what you want, and where you want to go.

To get what you want in your life, you must go after it. 
To do that, you must know what you want and what you do not want. 
If you focus on what you want, with hard work, you will get it. 
But if you focus on what you do not want, 
if you don't spend enough time with what you want, you will never get it.

Yes, you can do it. But you must be very clear about what you want. 
And commit yourself to making it happen. 
Because success comes from commitment.
Success comes from stretching yourself.
If you want to be successful, to live a purposeful life, you must focus on what you want.
