Now Is Not The Time To Fool Around

Do not go there. There is not for you. Chasing other people’s dreams is not going to give you what you are looking for.

The only way to get what you are looking for is to follow your own path, is to create your own path, is to believe in what you are chasing.

Don’t follow people. Because you don’t know where they are going. They are not doing what they are doing because of you. They are not living for you. They are not planning for you. They are not cooking for you. They are doing what they are doing for themselves, not for you.

If you want what you want, then do what you want for yourself.

That is why you should not go there. Because you have your own life to chase. You have your own dreams to create, to bring to life.

Use your own time wisely. You don’t have time. Your time is limited, according to Steve Jobs

You can create your own life. You do that by focusing on what is important to you.

You know what you want, and now is not the time to fool around. Now is the time to take action. Now is the time to accept that what you are doing is enough.

Now is the time to give yourself the grace to love who you are. Now is the time to give more, to go the extra mile, to stay longer in the game, to choose yourself.

Now is the time. If now is not the time, when is the time?

Define Your Own Path

If you define your own path, if you know what you are going for, if you are willing to do more than other people, if you are willing to be vulnerable, if you are willing to fall, to fail, to make hard choices, to make the right choices, to hang out with the right people, to stand up for yourself and others,

if you are willing to get your hands dirty, if you are willing to accept who you are, if you are willing to be there for yourself, no matter what, more often than not, you won’t fail.

You will succeed. You will win. And you will grow.

That is why following your own path is the path to your own success. No matter how rough, even if you don’t know what you are doing, stay in the game. Don’t quit too soon. Don’t deflate yourself.

Instead of throwing in your towel, why not give it everything that you have got to make it happen?

Yes, don’t waste your time if it is not working. If there is no other way forward, then doing something better, pursuing something greater, is better.

But you have got to make fighting for what you want your everyday thing. Make it a habit.

Things are tough, but do not quit just because they are tough. Tough people don’t quit just because something is tough.

Nothing can stop you from achieving your goals if you are willing to do more

to live more, to enjoy more, to love more, to question more, and to go the extra mile.

Will you?
