An Opportunity To Stay Relevant

Growth matters. To grow is to be alive in the world. To change is to stay important in the world. Because of that, every change becomes an opportunity to stay relevant, to pursue what is important to us.

To pursue what you want is to see where you are going. If you can see where you are going, then you are not paying attention to what is important to you.

Why is that? Because no one can see the future. No one can predict the future. So do not even try to do it.

Instead of trying to predict where you are going, why not focus on what you are doing right now? Why not take charge of your life right now? Why not focus on how you are going to get to the other side of where you are.

Because what you want, what you want to achieve in your life is on the other side of where you are. To get it, you have got to get out of where you are.

If not, you are stealing from your future. You are delaying your future. The question is, ‘Are you adding to your future, or are you stealing from your future?’

Why You Are Not Growing And What You Can Do About It

Life is not going to give you what is not for you. Life will give you what is yours.

So if you want to see more blessings in your life, then go out there and do some more work. Go out there and get things done.

If you want to be happy, then work really hard to occupy your mind with positive thoughts. Do not focus on negative things. Do not surround your life with people who are not living.

Do not let what you know stop you from knowing more, from learning from other people. Trust yourself. Trust what you are doing, what you know. But do not stop there.

Because to learn more is to keep moving. To stay fit is to keep going. You do not have to wait for the right time to start living your life. You do not have to wait for other people to give you permission to live your life.

Let go of negative people, people who are not for you, people who want you to fail, people who want you to be like them, people who are just going through life, who are not getting better. Let them go.

You do not need them in your life. You need people who are better than you are. You need people who are going to lift you up, even when you are tired, even when you do not want to do anything.

You need lifters, not downers. You will not succeed in your life if you do not surround yourself with people who are getting better every day.

You will get better only if you are willing to take a different direction. Remember, if you do not change, nothing is going to change.

So if you want to take your own leap of faith, then it is time to say ‘no’ to what is not working. It is time to say ‘yes’ to courage.

The question is, ‘Do you have the courage to do it?’
