The Best Use Of Your Time

Think about what you’re doing now and where it's taking you.
Most people live in a constant state of self denial. And after years and years of just barely getting by, they finally resign themselves to just that -- barely getting by.
The time you have now is priceless. You have the ability to do certain things now, things you'll be limited or unable to do, a few years from now.

Ask yourself, "what's the best use of my time right now?"
"What is the short term or long term effect of what i am doing right now?"
"Is what i am doing right now, making or breaking me?"

Look at what you’re doing now. Is it getting you where you want to be? If not, what are you going to do about it.
Are you going to keep living in a state of self denial, carelessness, mindlessness, until it’s too late and you finally just completely give up on your dreams and resign yourself to an empty life of just getting by?
Are you going to invest every second of today, in front of your TV, endlessly surfing the internet or social networks, gossiping, hating, criticizing, plotting revenge or setting blocks for another man to stumble on?
Or will you get up, positively create and implement useful values, face the fears and challenges that face you, break the circle of limitation and poverty that engulfs you and the people around you?

When you were a child, you could imagine unlimited possibilities.
You were happy and creative and you dreamed of big things.
But then about the age of 6 you started getting into the “system.”
And gradually, little by little, every day, the system began to wear you down, to strip your dreams away, to make you conform to the mediocre standard.
Your dreams are still there. They’re probably buried under a thick layer of sludge, but they’re still in there somewhere. Life has beaten you down, over and over again, but your dreams are still there.

Try reaching through all that and touching your dreams again. See how it feels. Imagine, just for a moment, that you can live your life to the fullest and be all you ever wanted to be and do all the things you ever wanted to do. Just imagine it for a moment.

The choice is up to you. You can continue to do what you’re doing, resign yourself to a lifetime of diminished expectations, or you can grab the opportunity to be the best you can be.
