Someone once said, “Life is what happens while we are making other plans.”

Do you go through life finding yourself continually detoured from things you really want to do by small and insignificant events?

Is your future held hostage by the unimportant details of the present?

Things happen. Directions may change. But ultimately, we do have control of our life. We can choose to choose, or choose to let happen.

The path of least resistance is so easy and so often taken by so very many of the masses of humanity at large.

The path of least resistance.

What is that telling us?

To choose is to resist. To choose is to decide. To choose is to step away from the common masses and take a different road.

Often, the road is an unbeaten path, rarely traveled because it is not on the map of “safe” travel.

There is no “safety” in choosing our own path. But the rewards can be phenomenal.

Dare to be different. Dare to dream.. Dare to step out of the box and away from your comfort zone. Dare to be yourself before you become swallowed up in the faceless masses of those who move anonymously through life never doing, dreaming, or becoming.

Speak up as if you had something to say. Sing out as if your voice should be heard. Act as if you were the only hope left in a world of mediocrity.

Make the decision to act.

Step away from the faceless crowd.

Become what you know in your heart you were meant to be.

But you must act now, as if your very life depended upon it.

And so it is.

But you must make the change and it will not wait until tomorrow, for tomorrow never comes.

You hold, right now, your future’s salvation in you own hands.

The time of hesitation is passed.

The time to act is now!
