Waiting for life to come

Life moves fast, don't miss it! If you sit by and wait for it then it will be done before you know it. You have to grab a hold of the reigns and ride it! Life is not a tame pony, it's a wild stallion that is unpredictable and ever changing. You have to be willing to take the bucks and the bruises to ride it to success. If you choose to just watch is run by, you will never win the ribbon. There are many people who choose the path of least resistance because it's "easy", well, life isn't supposed to be easy! If life is easy then your doing something wrong. Life is supposed to be fulfilling, and rewarding. It's supposed to develop as you get further along the path. The path of least resistance creates no friction, and a life without friction creates no sparks, involves no passion, and develops no flames. A life filled with adversity and challenge will build character and strength and a blazing inferno of passion for living! Don't avoid the sparks because they may burn you... Gallop through the flames because they could ignite you! Live a life full of enthusiasm and you will be an inspiration of what to do instead of an example of what not to do. Most of all, if that blazing stallion called life bucks you off swallow your pride, stand up, dust your self off, and jump back on, if you don't you'll miss the ride.

A Few Weeks in.

In life there are times when it's up and times when it's down. A few weeks back I would have told you that I was stuck on the down, and the elevator was broken. A few weeks later I can tell you that maintenance fixed it... or at least i am taking the stairs. I am on a much better path by doing this than the dead end path I was on before. If you don't enjoy what you do... stop doing it. If you enjoy what you do... congratulations! You are a member of an elite group of humans who are happy. When you look up to the stars to make wishes know that there are only a few of us that understand that wishes don't just happen. We have to work hard to make them come true. If you think that they will just suddenly happen, your lying to your self. It takes hours, days, weeks, months, even years of work to make each little wish happen. The fault of some people is that they just make the wish and expect someone or something else to do all the work for them. I choose not to believe that wishes just come true... not that I have always been that way but through the test of time I have found it to be so. If you are unwilling to work for your own wishes and dreams then how can anyone expect that anyone else will work for them? Life is a footrace, the only way that you will make it to the finish line is if you choose to run or at least walk it and give it a try! If you walk halfway through the race and give up, what do you win? If you make an effort and fall down what does it pay to not get up? Fail forward in careers, life, and love. Keep going for your wishes because no one else will keep going for you if you don't. This is the next leg of the race called my life and I don't expect handouts or head starts... the only difference between a success and a failure is that the success tried one more time...
