Do What Makes You Happy

Do what makes you happy, my friend. And do it unapologetically. Do it loud and proud. Do it with all your might. Then let it kill you.There was this great piece of advice in a film I watched the other day…“Don’t do anything just because you can. Don’t do anything you don’t love. Don’t do anything because other people think you should. Don’t do anything because you’re afraid to do something else.”I love this! I love it so much. It is so true and it was put in a way that I’ve never heard before especially the last line. It rang in my head for ages afterwards, so much so I had to make a note of it in my phone.If there’s something that you think about all the time. If there’s a dream that follows you. If you’re bored, angry or drained at your current job with little to no reward. If you aren’t being challenged. If you’ve never done anything bar what you do now. If you’ve never been anywhere. If you don’t feel needed or useful. If you think for a second that your purpose isn’t what you’re currently doing. Then do something else. There’s so much out there, so so much. It’s actually scary that there’s so much choice. So there shouldn’t be any excuse to make yourself miserable everyday. Figure out what you need to do to go where you want to go, set a plan, get help, get qualifications, whatever it is and then do it!There’s no easy way to become an author. There’s so straight road. But I’m trying to make it happen because I need it to. I want to be happy everyday knowing I’m doing what I feel I was born to do.And so should you. Don’t settle for less than. Don’t settle for the easy road that makes you unhappy.Be brave, be honest, be you.
