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?

Is Hard Work Enough?

I don’t know. Maybe you can help me out. Work or no work, life continues. But to where? What do you think is going to happen to that future that you never stop talking about?

If it is about talk, just talk, you have not started. You are still sleeping.

If you are still in bed, when are you going to get up? When are you going to say enough is enough? When are you going to get back to your work, yes, to your work?

When are you going to do what you have been avoiding? What you don’t want to do, other people are doing it. They are working. They are making. They are creating?

What about you? Are you working hard? Are you working smart? Are you doing the talking? If you are tired of complaining, then stop talking. Then get to work.

Talk is not going to do it for you. The only thing that can make you come alive again is work. Not terrible work. But you must do something to get something. My friends, let us not fool ourselves. A bad job is better than no job. Why is that?

Because work is prayer. Even if the job you are doing now is not making you happy, don’t throw it away. The more you do it, the more you are praying for a better one. If you are not working, you are not praying. To get what you want, get to work. Why? Because work is prayer.
