Always Do Things That Mean Something To You

If something doesn’t make sense to you, then don’t do it. If you do, you are the one who is going to face your music.

Just because everybody is doing the same thing does not make it right. If it is good for them, then let them do it. If it is not right for you, don’t even think about it.

Why is that? Because you are going to waste your time. It is not going to make you a better person. So why do it?

If painting makes sense to you, then go for it. If music makes sense to you, then go for it. If you love reading, then read more books.

Don’t just do things because they are popular. Do things because they are going to make you better. Do things because they are going to increase your value in the market place. Do things that make you come alive. Why? Because the world is looking for people who have the courage to follow their dreams.

Are you the one?

Focus On Where You Are Going

Comfort is the enemy of growth. Comfort is the enemy of success. And comfort is the root of failure.

If you want to succeed, focus on the journey. Focus on what you are doing. Focus on what you are learning. But if you want to fail, focus on where you are. Focus on what other people are doing. Focus on failure. Focus on what is going to happen to your dreams.

Don’t focus on problems. Focus on solutions. Don’t focus on failures. Because they will happen. There is nothing you are going to do about that. Because they are part of the game.

If you are afraid of failure, then you are not ready for success. Because you can’t succeed without failures, without mistakes.

When it comes success, if you are not failing, you are not trying hard enough. Fail. Do not worry about it. The most important thing is where you are going, your journey.

Do not rest. Keep going. Rest when you are done, not when you are not done.

Is it going to be easy, no. But you can make it. You do that by focusing on the journey, not the end. By focusing on your growth, not your pain. By focusing on the process, not the outcome. The more you focus on where you are going, the better.

Because life is a journey.
