Most of us go through life pretending that we don’t
have any special goals or ambitions or desires when really deep down inside we
do really want more. We block ourselves and we use these words almost
like we’re in a trance, like we’re sleep-walking through life, that we find
ways to cancel out our dreams, that a lot of things that we want to do, a lot
of places we would like to go, a lot of things we would like to experience, and
we just stop at “BUT.”
“BUT
IS AN ARGUMENT FOR OUR LIMITATIONS AND WHEN WE ARGUE FOR OUR LIMITATIONS, WE
GET TO KEEP THEM”
“BUT” will cause you to hide out
behind fear, “BUT” will cause you to
come up with all types of excuses that you can validate your inaction and not
acting on your dream. ”BUT” is
a dream-killer.
Do you know what most people do? Most people
go through life quietly and safely tiptoeing to an early grave. We’ve
been holding back, we have ideas that we don’t act on, things that we want to
do, we are afraid to take chances. A lot of people say “NO” to things and they don’t even know
what they’re saying “NO” to!
Don’t allow the word “BUT” to
keep you in the corner.
A lot of people say, “But I tried once,” or
“twice,” “and it didn’t work out,” and so they use that as an excuse not to
ever come out again. Even if things don’t work out, even if I experience
defeat or failure, that does not make me a failure. There’s a difference
between failing and being a failure. If things don’t work out, if you
don’t produce the results you want, that’s all, but don’t confuse who you are
with the results that you produce. Do what you can where you are with
what you have, and never be satisfied. Yeah, don’t get satisfied with
yourself. Always know that wherever you are, you can enjoy more, that you
deserve more. Why don’t you decide now that you can expand your world,
that if other people can learn you can learn, too?
If you are working on your dream, sure there are going
to be times when you are going to want to give up, sure there will be times
when life will knock you down and catch you on the blind side, but the
challenge is to hold on. And if you hold on tenaciously, I say the
universe is on your side. If you don’t decide to act on your dream, if
you don’t decide to make a decision to live your life, if you don’t decide to
step into your fears, if you don’t decide to say yes to your life, it will
never work for you. You’ve got to live what’s in life; life is too short and
unpredictable.
But what do we say? ”But there will always be
tomorrow.” Oh, no. There’s no guarantees that you’re gonna show up
tomorrow. Always something there, the reason you can’t move on, the
reason why you can’t grow to the next level, why you can’t be to manifest your
greatness, why you can’t begin to live life on your terms, that you’re gonna
say “it’s not worth it.” Yes, that’s going to be right there for you,
it’s going to be in your face, telling you to go back. So if you want to
do something, if you’ve thought about something you want to do, take it
head-on. Life will never be the same.
I listened to him and thought to share with you.
Live your dream my friend.
