What got you here today will get you back here tomorrow.
Unless something changes.
Let’s face it. The tomorrow you dream of is rarely a reflection of what you experience today.
Today is about tomorrow.
Get there.
All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;
They have their exits and their entrances; — William Shakespeare, As You Like It.
Heavy. True. Worthy of thought and response.
Great players reveal great metaphors.
Living things decompose when idle.
Ships rot in the harbor.
Airplanes rust in the hanger.
We all want something. However, some hope for what they want and some go get it.
Whatever it is that you want, you won’t find it on the couch, in your inbox, at your desk, in your sleep, or thinking about it.
Slap on some swagger, put her in drive, and go get it.
Fulfillment is more about being able to say ‘I went and got it’ than it is ‘now I have it.’
Move. Sail. Fly.
Great lives do not push agendas, rather they pull us in with questions for our awareness to how things are and how we can we can make the world a better place.
Jobs asked if we were settling for good when incredible was nearby.
Godin is asking if we are accepting the status quo or challenging it.
Ramsey is asking if we are living like everyone else or no one else.
Rick Warren is questioning our purpose or lack thereof.
What are you giving us to think about?
What will you choose to pursue today?
Will you work or wait?
Will you love or or let down?
Will you do the dream or die to the dream?
Will you give it all or give up?
Your music – your success – is your responsibility. And responsibility is either chosen or neglected.
Don’t covet.
Don’t blame.
This thing is on you and your Muse.
