Go Get It...The Life You Want

Photo: Felicia T. Simpson
Life is all about reaching for the stars and growing beyond your thoughts. Anything is possible if you want it bad enough to work for it.
Life is short. Time is something you don't get back. It is very valuable, and yet we don't value it. We waste time. We do things that have zero value. Because we think we have "time"
What have you accomplished so far? Are you satisfied with it? Do you know that you could do more? Accomplish more? Be more?
Dream...Then Dream Bigger
My goal these days is to go after my dreams. I mean I am putting effort into chasing after the things I want to accomplish in life. I am overcoming any obstacles that try to block me. And that includes things and people. I will fight for my dreams and I advise you to do the same thing.
Never allow what you can't do to stop you from doing what you can do. That is a big problem with people. We get hung up on the things that we can't do. Or that we think we can't do and then we don't move forward with the things that we actually can do.
I bet if you sat down and wrote out a list of all of the gifts, talents and skills you would be surprised at just how much you do know. My friend and business partner Roxanne, suggested I do that a while back. And I was really surprised when the list of the things I could do was pretty lengthy.
Why don't you do that. Take the time to write down all of your assets. I bet like me, you will be pleasantly surprised.
We all have gifts.. Some people go through life not using their gifts. And that is a shame. We limit ourselves because of our perceived shortcomings. And a lot of those shortcomings are in our head.
Don't just dream of a better life, do what needs to be done to actually have that life. It's good to dream. But you have to put some action with those dreams. Decide that you are going to "Do It"
Don't let fear stop you from doing the things you want to do in life. Make up your mind that you have wasted enough time and that you are ready for a change.
When you make the decision to do something, things will begin to happen. Opportunities will appear. People will be in place to help you. But you have to make the first step. Do it today.
Don't let your fear stop you from moving forward. Go Get It...whatever "it" is.
