Before You Give Up, Remember That It Takes You To Achieve What You Really Want

Andrea Piacquadio

It takes YOU to achieve what you want.
If you are committed to achieving it,
Nothing can stop you, not even fear.

Do not let fear of the unknown stop 
You from loving the known.
Do not let fear of the unknown stop 
you from enjoying the known.
Do not let fear of the unknown stop
you from enjoying what you already have.
Do not let fear of the unknown 
stop you from living a positive life.

Whatever you want to do, go for it.
Remember, it takes YOU to achieve 
Your dreams. If it is not you, who do 
you think is going to do it for you?
No one, but you. 

Whatever you want to do for yourself,
For your life, go for it. Do not let anything 
Stop you from getting there. Take a bold step
Toward what you want. And you must do
Whatever is within your power to get it.

Because you can face them. 
If you do not face your fears,
You are not going to achieve 
Your dreams. You are not going to 
Become who you were created to be.

No, you can defeat fear. You can live.
You can do better things. You can live a better life.
But you need you. The real you, not the fake you.
Right now, who do you really think you are?
The real you? Or, 
The fake you? It is up to you.

Nothing Works Without You

What is a straight line? What does it mean to you?
Is life a straight line business? Is it a straight line thing?
If you are honest with yourself, if we are honest here, 
the answer is no. No, it is not. It is not. It is not even fair.
And it is not supposed to be fair. But you can make 
your life better than fair. 

It is not going to happen without your help.
it is not going to happen wihout your commitment.
Because nothing in life works without action.
Talk is easy. Talk is cheap, but action makes things happen.
Nothing happens without you doing something about it.
The question is, Are you going to do something about it?
Are you going to cultivate the courage to take action to change your life?

Do you have the courage to challenge yourself?
Do you have the courage to put your assumptions to test?
If you have it, go ahead and put it to work. 
But if you don't have it, why not? What are you doing about it?
Because without courage, you are not going anywhere.
