Most people...

MOST people do not pursue their dreams or take action on anything they really want. I want to break it down to 2 of many points.. first being FEAR. Worrying what could go wrong, doubts, worst case scenario and most of all failing.. Ask yourself: Why am I afraid of failure? Is it because of the pain or maybe that it will be a risk? But yet everywhere I see and hear, it is clear that FAILURE is part of the journey to SUCCESS.
and the other would be Negative Influence. This is a difficult one because I know the feeling of having friends or family not agreeing with you, not because they don't care, but because that's what they would do. You can have people who shoot your ideas down and do not encourage you and even people who suede you to do things or go places you wouldn't normally do. Ask yourself: Do these people have the life or results I want in my life? 99% of doubts and fears are self-inflicted thoughts and do not exist. Because of these 2 points most people settle for waking up, going to work, stay most the day, even though they may not enjoy it, do that everyday, make enough to get by, restricted to pay check, complain of having no time or money, envy others doing fun things, do that 12 months of the year, take a week off for Christmas and the cycle continues and sometimes even lasts a lifetime. Well I'll be straight up, I don't want the path of most people, because to be honest most people I see and talk to are in situations that are just full of unhappiness & un-fulfillment. I CHOOSE to live the life I want to live. Am I the "creator of life" saying this is right or wrong? Of course not. All I urge you to do is think to yourself as you get into your car, about to put the key in the ignition to start OR once you have turned off the lights, jumped into bed and pulled the cover over yourself, head on the pillow eyes about to shut.. Is this really it? Am I happy with what I am doing and will I be happy doing this the rest of my life? And if the answer is NO, then it is never too late to choose a different path and create that life you want. TAKE RISKS! Your potential is infinite. Carlo
