Stop Wasting Time

Nothing is forever. You have the power to change whatever it is you wish to change in your life. You have the power to create a life you would love to live.

If something is not working, then it is up to you and you alone to change it. No one is coming to change it for you. No one is coming to rescue you and give you a better life.

It is all down to you and the chooses and action you take to make the necessary changes. Perhaps you think that everything is great or perhaps you are simply settling for what you have and you don’t believe that you deserve more than what you have today.

Perhaps you think you are not good enough or you are unworthy. The truth is, every single human on this earth has a genius within them.

They also have their authentic selves and they have the choose to choose every day how they live and what they do. You can learn how to become a creator.

You can learn about the different belief systems that hold you back from going after what you would love. You can learn every day how to grow and become a better version of yourself.

Or, you can stay as you are. The truth is, you are good enough as you are. You don’t need to go out there and conquer the world. You don’t need to earn millions of dollars or pounds or euros.

You don’t need to have the biggest house or the most expensive car. All these wants and needs often come from a place of being validated.

You cannot be validated as an adult. It’s simply too late. But what you can do is live in your truth as to who you really are. You can seek patterns in your life that cause self-sabotage, that cause you to overwork or to simply fail.

You can become aware of what you do to distract yourself every moment of every day. You can become aware of what you do to stop yourself playing a bigger game and to stay small and insignificant.

We spend most of our time every day wasting our time. Drinking, playing games, looking at social media, looking on the internet, watching YouTube or movies.

Even watching sport. All these countless distractions that prevent us going after being the person we were born to be on this earth. For if we remain distracted, then we feel safe.

Or so we think. Our ego thinks it is safer for us to stay small but in staying small and insignificant we then live with regret and shame and what if.

And one day, it will be too late and we will tell our grandchildren or anyone who will listen to our sob story of how we had all these dreams but we did none of them.

We were going to do all these amazing things but instead, we did nothing. And now, we are old, immobile and sad and the moment has been lost in a lifetime of distractions.

The worst of it is that we knew we were put on this earth for something bigger. We knew, in our heart we were meant for more. And yet, we refused to take action. We were scared and afraid.

More of being successful than of failure. For failure is familiar and almost comfortable as is suffering. But success, fame and fortune is not within our comfort zone.

It is way outside of what we know and so we fear it. We fear living in our greatness and so we do nothing. We talk ourselves out of it. We justify the reasons why we can’t go for what our heart desires.

We need money and time to go after what we love. We need everything to be perfect before we start. I know, I have done all of this.

But every single day, you don’t take action is a day lost, never to return again. It is another day you spent playing small instead of living in your greatness and feeling that love and appreciation of those that you inspire around you to live in their own greatness.

You have gifts and talents to offer the world. Do not deny the world of your gifts and talents. Do not hang on to mediocrity when you can have greatness.

You cannot wait any longer. Today is the day you begin your journey. Just do one simple thing that takes you closer.

However small the step, however brief the moment, it doesn’t matter because you will be moving forward. And that, at the end of the day, is all that matters.
