.wake .up

Is it time to wake up to what makes me come alive?

Is it possible to balance doing that with all the other daily responsibilities i must deal with?

Only one person can answer this. This means no one can override my answer.

“But what if I’m wrong?”, i say to yourself.

What if i’m not?

.wake .up

Go.

Will a whole new generation want to put thriving above surviving?

The main reason we let ourselves go is because we are unbalanced. Remain unbalanced for too long and live amongst unbalanced people and guess what?

Who on Earth would cause such a ruckus as to make the future look so bright?

Run to it or from it.

Can you remember the last time you spoke with a business professional who said, “Can’t imagine ever leaving this job. The pay, the perks, the schedule, the recognition, the joy, my boss, the executives. It’s like heaven on earth working here”.

… can you remember?

It hardly ever plays out like this.

Why?

Because people are willing to compromise their beliefs, remain silent, accept mediocrity, and watch the clock tick by, one year at a time.

Why?

Comfort and fear.
