Why Some Of Us Are Not Free

Talking is not freedom. Walking around is not freedom. Driving the best car is not freedom. Wearing the best clothes is not freedom.

Freedom comes from love. It comes from self-love. If you don’t love who you are, nothing else matters.

When you love who you are, your own freedom is possible. When you are in love with yourself, you can do all things. Because you just feel great about yourself.

You are free when you do not see obstacles as things that are trying to stop you from achieving your dreams.

‘When you are free, the world is free. When you are not free, the world is not free.’

You are free when you don’t focus on what is not working for you, when you are comfortable with yourself, when you are not afraid to stand for something.

You are free when you are NOT looking for anyone to give you permission to live your life.

You are free when you don’t bring other people down in order to win in life.

You are free when you think about other people, when you put other people first, when you ‘eat last.’

You are free when you are comfortable hanging around people who are different from you.

You are free when you are doing what you love, what makes you come alive. That is what you love. What we love is what makes us come alive. If you are not doing what you love, you are not alive. You are on your way. You are getting there.

You are free when you know that things, great things, take time to get done, that freedom makes things possible.

Think about it. Can you get real things done when you are not free? It is not possible. If you want to live a great life, you must set yourself free. When you are free, you are free to fly, to create, and to live.

The question is, ‘Are you living your life? Are you free to create? Are you free to enjoy your world? If not, what are you doing to make a difference in your life?

When you are free, the world is free. When you are not free, the world is not free.

Why You Feel Empty Inside

If you think you are not enough, you are wrong. If you think you are not whole, you are wrong. If you think you don’t have what it takes to create a better life for yourself, you are wrong. If you think life is not fair, you are right. If you think you are making progress, you are right.

Because life is about making progress. Life is not about making things perfect. It is about making progress. It is about appreciating what we have. It is about working hard to get what is important to us. It is NOT about waiting for miracles to happen. It is about creating our miracles. It is about respecting our lives, no matter what is going on around us.

If you don’t feel right, check your thoughts. Because what you are thinking about is what is affecting you, not your situation.

If you change your thoughts about your situation, your situation will change. And you can manage it.

Whether you are feeling right or not, do not let your feelings make you forget who you are, why you are here, and where you are going.

When things are difficult, it is easier to give up than it is to keep fighting for what we want. If you want to get what you want, no one is going to give it to you; you have got to fight for it.

If not you, who do you think is going to fight your battle for you? No one is going to do it. The world is too busy to even recognize your situation.

If you don’t feel right, that is okay. You are not going to feel great every day. Some days are going to be better. Whatever you have got, take it. And you can make things better for yourself when you focus on what is really working for you.

Don’t focus on darkness. Don’t focus on negativity. Do not focus on what is missing. Don’t worry about what others are doing. Your time is coming. If you don’t give up, if you can stick to your goal, if you can tell yourself that ‘you are whole’, nothing is going to stop you from living your life the way you want to live it.

The question is, ‘What are you doing to create a positive life for yourself?’
