Many people spend greater parts of their lives fantasizing about a beautiful future they have in mind. They spend so much time blowing
off the candles on their birthday cakes that they never get around eating it. This is the reason dreams remain dreams and nothing more.
Are you one of such people? It’s time to get up and get going.
It starts by deciding to stop wishing for things. See every wish as a potential miss; so instead of wishing, just start doing. For instance, if
you want to be the next Donald Trump, just start now to be as controversial as you can; want to be a successful business owner? Start a small scale business now!
What most people fail to understand is that doing something is better than doing nothing. The patient dong gets old eventually and his
reward probably comes late or never; you must take what you want and not wait for a later time. Delay could be detrimental.
Let me conclude by saying that some people never get to start anything because they don’t know the answers to the why, where, how
questions. There are answers to these questions and it is in your drive to move ahead that you discover them. Don’t limit yourself.
Motivation is enough, you must work.
A wonderful reminder to never separate thought from action!
I just want to throw out a word of caution. I think we often see people twist this message to say "the reason I have achieved my dreams is because I am determined and motivated, and the reason so many others have failed to achieve their dreams is because they are lazy and inept".
Too often this ignores realities of immense privilege and support that enable some to succeed beyond others.
Yes of course we should all start doing instead of just wishing, but please don't use this inspiration ideal to justify your dominance over others.
