Stay Hungry

"You better stand for something or you will fall for anything." Too many times people would rather sit on the sidelines and have other people make the plays; people that would rather sit in the passengers seat and grant others the control  over their destination when WE ALL should take fate by the neck and show it who is boss. 

I’ve seen it happen to some of the best and I’m not going to lie, I’ve been through it. Sometimes I’ve gone down without a fight and have bitten my tongue just to save myself from strain. However, we all know that life will never be easy and shouldn't be submissive to something that we strongly believe in especially when it comes to our happiness. Plateaus in life are usually lessons of needed change in disguise and we don’t want to be the ones that are disappointed because we had given up right before the breakthrough.

I know a lot of people that are not afraid to work hard for what they want but are standing around for an opportunity to come knocking on the front door. However if we want something so bad, we need to go and get it. If we want something done right, we have to do them ourselves.  We shouldn’t wait because people that wait will only be given what was left behind by others that didn’t settle. 

You are worth only as much as YOU say you are. You can rely on luck or you can get up off of your behind and align your own stars.  You may be taking a risk by standing up but you may never know the results of the "what ifs" if you don't do anything. You can either be the pessimist that complains about the wind, be the optimist that expects the wind to change or you can be the realist that adjusts the sails to waters of ideal conditions. 


The power of our imaginations and our desires is what makes us infinite. So do what your heart desires and what your soul yearns. Do what you think is right. When you taste the fruits of your own labor, you'll never taste anything sweeter. I'm at a point where I'm trying to search for my life's purpose and I know that this time around that my purpose is not to synthesize with the rest of the band or by audience requests but to solely live to the beat of my own drum.


 In life you have to stay hungry because closed mouths don’t get fed.
