"To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.” - Oscar Wilde

"We settle into a routine, our safety blanket, and shut everything else out. Because of Fear. It is the strongest force that holds us back. We are afraid of the new, unusual, unknown. Because we cannot categorize or stereotype something we haven't experienced, it doesn't fit in our minds, so we push it away. We're afraid to make mistakes, of failing, or regretting our decisions later.
But what are mistakes anyway? And who has the right to judge?
Why do you think that even YOU have the right to decide what was a mistake and what wasn't? How do you know? You don't ever, ever see the Bigger Picture, of how something terrible could have set of a chain reaction that lead to something wonderful. You can only guess, regret, worry, etc. But what for? You can think of what could of, should of, would of happened, but in the end its simply a waste of precious time.
We make decisions. Every minute of every day. With these decisions we control the course of our lives.
Of course there must be both good and bad things, mistakes are unavoidable, but we must do the best we can, strive to be the best we can be. If we never try we will never succeed. If we always retreat we can never have victory.
So, what are you waiting for...?

What AM I waiting for?..

stopping me from achieving my dreams:

confidence: disbelief that I could be what i want to be
financial resources.
