Change the Problem

It’s really easy to come up with reasons why you can’t do something.  Really easy to say I can’t.  “If only” is a phrase that rolls off our tongue too easily.  “If only I had started younger, if only I had or hadn’t done this or that.”

We imagine how great it would be to travel to that other country we’ve always wanted to go to, or what it would be like to graduate with that degree we’ve dreamed of, or what it would be like to ask that girl out, or land that dream job.

And we leave all these things in our thoughts and never do a dang thing about it.

Stop analyzing, thinking, and wondering what if, and start doing.  Do you want to never chase after your dreams or go after what is important to you, and wake up one day and realize you never fully lived?  To be old one day with regrets and sadness?

Someday won’t ever come if you keep putting everything to someday, it will just become an endless string of “tomorrow”, or “the next day”.

Don’t like your life?  Change it.  Yes you have that capability, yes you have that power.  Your past, your mistakes, your circumstances are not holding you back, you hold yourself back.  You can rise above any problem, any hardship.

Start acting today.
