Over the last couple of months in my life I have come to a point where it is time to make big decisions. A point where I truly have to decide what I want to do and where I want to end up in my life. I have been able to come to some conclusions and learn a few things along the way. I have learned things about life in general as well as about myself.
The first thing I learned was to keep on dreaming. No matter where you are in your life right now, the best thing that you can do to keep moving forward and to keep life exciting is to keep on dreaming. Keep thinking of what you want out of life and what you want to spend your time doing. Keep on dreaming of new things that you would like to do. Keep on dreaming of how you want to live.
The next thing that I learned was that you are not stuck in life. No matter where you end up in life or what you are currently doing, you are not stuck there. It doesn't matter what job you have of your current state of living, no matter what they are, you are not stuck in them. They all have the possibility to change and the probability to change over time anyway. Some people might see this as a scary concept that things can and will change. But for me, I see this as an adventure of possibilities. I am comforted by knowing that I am not stuck in my current position. I am also comforted by knowing that if I end up somewhere that I think will be good and it turns out horribly wrong that I have tho option to get out of it. I like knowing that I am not stuck. I like knowing that there is the possibility of change. Especially with the things that I do not like.
To go along with both of these things, the biggest thing that I have been continuing to learn is that life takes action. And not just anybodies action, but your action. Life takes doing something. You can dream all you want to in your life but if you never do anything about it, that it what it will always be...just a dream. It will never be anything more then a dream or a wish if you don't take the action to make it a reality. All it will ever be is just some thought that you had once. You have to be the one to take the action. You have to be the one to actually do something about it and make it more then just a dream.
Inside each of us there is a power. A power to dream. A power to do. A power to act. This power is there. It is there to help us live our lives. But the thing is, we have to have the courage and the guts to use it. It is a scary thing to dream and then even scarier to act upon that dream. So many things can go against it. So many things are there as obstacles that already make it look like you are going to fail. This is where we tend to stop. We tend to backtrack when we realize that there is fear within us as well. We tend to give up. but, what we have to remember is that we already have this power within us. We have already been given the strength and the power. The strength and the power to dream, to do and most of all the strength and the power to act.
Don't be afraid that you will fail, because if you stop there, then you will never know if you could have succeeded.
