there is a version of you right now that
exists that has it all everything you
can possibly think of the version of
just living it right now and the fastest
way to experience that is to connect to
that highest version of you so here's
how you do it it's before going to bed
imagine this white light coming down
from the sky filling your entire body up
with this white light and when you're
ready I want you to follow this light up
as far as you can go and your intention
is I want to connect to the version of
myself that has the life that I want so
follow this light up as far as you can
go beyond the country beyond the Earth
until you're there and when you're there
just bask in everything that you
experience you might even say to
yourself I fully receive all the lessons
all the guidance in this space I am
ready to be one with the version of me
that has it all I am ready I am ready I
am ready and then fall asleep to this
energy do that and you'll be shocked at
the things that you're going to attract
in experience when you wake up in the
morning it's the lonely moments that
expose how you treat yourself because if
you find that nobody's around and the
fear of being with your own mind starts
to creep in you haven't built enough
evidence that you can trust yourself you
shouldn't be afraid of you you are the
only thing in this world you actually
control and I promise to be in good
company with yourself is very possible
even in the painful moments you know
Your Heroes are heroic because they
never default on who you'd expect them
to be so keep all of your promises to
yourself and watch you become your
biggest
hero nothing happens to you take action
nobody ever thought their way to success
nobody ever hoped their way to success
nobody ever wrote goals on a planner to
success they acted the moment that you
and I act the moment that you and and I
move the moment that you and I take
action action is what attracts it's the
action it's the movement that people say
oh my look at them look what they're
doing look where they're going and the
moment that I began to take action I
began to attract people I begin to
attract resources I begin to attract
opportunities all this stuff it doesn't
it doesn't come to you quit waiting for
it it isn't coming you go to it and you
make it happen
nothing more
motivating than the knowledge I'm going
to
die think of the prisoner in the cell
and they're putting an X through
everyone because every ex is one day
closer to getting out well let's do that
for your life every ex you spend doing
nothing that's a day you could have done
something and you're going to die one
day it's there on the calendar okay this
would so motivate me as it does to be at
as productive as I can as helpful as I
can try to make a better world for your
privilege of having lived in it so if
knowing you're going to die brings
meaning to your
life then living
forever is a life of no meaning at
all if you decide that you want to
achieve a goal you start moving toward
it and what is the first thing you're
going to experience obstacles
difficulties failure setbacks
disappointments they come over and over
again you may fail nine times for every
10th time that you make a step forward
well if you have high levels of ambition
like an engine a car with a powerful
engine you'll go over the bumps you keep
driving forward if you have low levels
of ambition what will you do you will
quit at the first failure or
disappointment we spend a lot of time in
our life chasing success
what really is Success what does it mean
what does it mean to be successful have
you ever sat down and figured out if I
accomplish what I'm going after that
goal or that dream or whatever that
is does getting that make me successful
what about the people that I have with
me along the way or the people I need to
help me along the way or the people I
help along the way what about that does
that play Into My Success do you think
about the people that surround you and
that you surround and the difference
that it makes in your life and theirs as
you go on this Chase of
achievement success is cool success is
something we should go after but
significance is better I want you to be
successful but I want you to understand
that if that success has no significance
to anyone but
you then it's not going to have that
kind of feeling that you think you're
going to get from that
success there's no secure path forward
Give It Up risk everywhere oh my God
that's terrible it's like yes except for
two
things you can pick your risk that's the
first thing so you get to pick your
poison that's something and second
you're a lot tougher than you think so
even though there's risk everywhere if
you confront it forthrightly what you'll
find is that you can actually handle the
risk and that's the
[Music]
security you heard that the eyes are the
window to the soul but you haven't heard
that they're also the bridge to your
goals and that the reason you aren't
able to achieve them is that you're
looking at the wrong things constantly
scrolling to guard your eyes the way to
do so is very simple stop looking for
pleasure and start looking for growth
realize that the second you start
protecting your eyesight is the second
you start making significant progress
towards your
goals treat yourself with utmost respect
or what settle for nothing but the best
life you could possibly imagine or what
I mean is there seriously another option
in your mind would you actually be
willing to give up the potential of your
life to an uncertainty of your ability
to get it I'll be honest you're not
better than anybody but guess what
nobody is better than you the people
with your dream life are not better than
you your family is not better than you I
am not better than you so if anybody can
have what you are looking for it's
you time doesn't lie it reveals the
truth about how much you've given how
much you've endured and how much you're
willing to fight for what you say you
want time isn't your enemy it's your
greatest Ally but it only works for you
if you show up
how often have you felt stuck in the
routines of
Life the same mornings the same faces
the same paths you walk day after day
there's comfort in knowing exactly where
you are and where you're going but let
me ask you this is Comfort all there is
to life the truth is Comfort zones are
Illusions they make us feel safe but
they also trap us you see the magic of
life doesn't happen in the places you
already know it happens in the unknown
the messy the unpredictable there's a
quote that goes if you never get lost
how will you ever expect to find
yourself think about that for a second
if you always know what's next if every
step is planned and calculated where's
the room for Discovery where's the room
for growth let me tell you something
about being lost those moments when you
don't know what's next when the map
youve followed all your life suddenly
tears apart those are the moments when
life truly begins those are the moments
when you stop walking a straight line
and start start exploring this isn't
about staying safe avoiding risks or
sticking to what you know no this is
about embracing the chaos the kind of
chaos that makes you question everything
you thought you knew the kind of chaos
that scares you but also sets you free
because here's the truth you'll never
discover the life you were meant to live
if you're too afraid to leave the life
you already know so let go you know let
go of the isolation the hesitation and
the fear you know it's time to break
free to try to fail and to get lost Bost
and in doing so find a version of
yourself that's braver brighter and More
Alive than you ever
[Music]
imagined let's start with why we're so
terrified of getting lost yeah somewhere
along the way Society taught us that
uncertainty is a bad thing from
childhood we're handed a map go to
school get good grades get a stable job
save for retirement stay in your lane
play safe but let me ask ask you who
wrote that map did you or was it written
by someone else Society your parents or
your fears think about the life you're
living right now are you walking your
own path or are you following someone
else's are you chasing dreams that are
truly yours or are you stuck living out
expectations that were placed on you now
imagine throwing that map away scary
right but here's the thing when you get
lost you don't just lose your way you
lose the limits you placed on yourself
you lose the narrow perspective that's
been holding you back when you get lost
you stop living on autopilot you begin
to notice the opportunities around you
the ones you've been too afraid to see
that's why getting lost matters it's not
a failure it's not a setback it's an
Awakening it's The Universe telling you
there's more out there for you if you're
brave enough to explore it fear it's the
number one thing holding us back fear of
failure fear of rejection fear of
looking foolish but let me ask you this
what's scarier trying and failing or
never trying at all failure isn't the
opposite of success it's part of the
process every step forward begins with a
stumble every Masterpiece starts as a
rough draft every strong person was once
terrified but here's the secret fear
isn't your enemy it's your guide fear is
like a compass it points you to the
places where you need to grow think
about the things you're afraid of are
you you afraid to speak your mind to
step into the spotlight to pursue your
passion that fear isn't telling you to
stop it's showing you what matters most
to you so what if you fail what if you
look foolish so what you'll survive in
fact you'll do more than survive you'll
learn you'll grow you'll become stronger
picture this years from now when you
look back on your life will you be proud
of how you lived or will you be haunted
by the chances you didn't take the life
you want is waiting for you but you'll
never find it if you let fear keep you
in
place there's another reason we stay
stuck isolation we convince ourselves we
don't need anyone else that we're better
off alone you know but let me tell you
something Independence isn't the same as
isolation you know mean we were built
for connection but here's the thing true
connection requires vulnerability you
require stepping out of your shell and
saying this is me will you meet me here
so Reach Out join that class go to that
event say yes to the invitation you've
been avoiding life isn't meant to be
lived alone here's the thing nobody
tells you getting lost isn't just
necessary it's fun think about the last
time you tried something completely new
maybe you got lost in a new city
stumbled upon an incredible cafe or
ended up having an unforgettable
conversation with a stranger life is
full of surprises but only if you're
open to them when you let go of control
and embrace the unknown you invite magic
into your
life do you want to know the secret to
happiness it's not about having
everything figured out it's about living
with curiosity and wonder it's about
waking up every day and asking what
amazing thing might happen today so
start saying yes yes to Adventures yes
to risks yes to the things that make
your heart race the more you let go the
more you find yourself when when you
step into the unknown you discover
strengths you never knew you had you
realize you're braver smarter and more
resourceful than you thought getting
lost strips away the labels and
expectations that have been placed on
you and it forces you to ask who am I
really and in the process you find the
truest most authentic version of
yourself so where do we go from here
that's up to
you the life you want is waiting for you
but you'll never find it if you're too
afraid to get lost so go try fail
explore and remember getting lost isn't
the end it's the beginning
there's been many many people that have
just put their foot down and said enough
I'm I'm going to change my life and they
they don't take any excuses and they
feel way way better
everything in life that's hard is just a
series of things that are easy you just
have to take that first step taking that
responsibility for yourself and
committing to yourself to say I'm going
to take action and I'm going to make it
happen there is no easy road to what you
want it's a long
road the emotionally immature man seeks
out motivation to do something hard one
time the emotionally mature man uses
discipline to do something hard a
thousand
times you can have that conversation and
you could stop seeking approval you can
stop asking for permission to get after
your goals and dreams and here's why
because if you stay silent and you let
that time go by what you're going to
allow is for resentment and regret to
build up resentment towards the people
that you felt like were stifling your
goals and dreams who weren't giving you
the permission validation or approval
and regret for the fact that you chose
to not lead
yourself into chasing your goals and
dreams people want this to be cut and
dry they want this to be easy they want
it to be quick they want it to be
painless there's nothing easy quick and
painless about beinging great at
building anything in life creating
anything at life becoming anything at
life you are going to suffer it is going
to be hard it is going to take all of
your energy it's going to kick you in
theing face a, times you're going to be
demoralized you're going to be
frustrated you're going to be angry
you're going to be bitter sometimes this
is why it's so important to build
yourself into someone who can execute
regardless of what your mood is
regardless of what your circumstances is
because if you can execute when things
are fed up and everybody else bails and
everybody else quits what kind of
Advantage does that give you over the
long haul it gives you a tremendous
advantage and if you can become the kind
of person that cannot be stopped by
outside circumstances or going through a
tough time or being in a bad mood or
being unmotivated how can anyone beat
that you're going to lose sleep you'll
doubt whether it'll work you'll stress
to make ends meet you won't finish your
to-do list you'll wonder whether you
made the right call and have no way to
know for yours this is what hard feels
like and that's okay everything worth
doing is hard and the more worth doing
it is the harder it is the greater the
payoff the greater the hardship someone
will save you but it's it's you future
you the better you the person that
you've been waiting to
become most people for most ideas either
don't do anything with it or will slowly
make a little bit of progress over time
taking that responsibility for yourself
and committing to yourself to say I'm
going to take action and I'm going to
make it happen but we need to commit to
taking action right away on
things it is impossible for you to
accomplish anything worthwhile in life
without the ability to concentrate
single-mindedly on one thing at a time
and stay with it until it's complete in
fact time and motion Studies have shown
that if you start a task and you put it
down and you come back to it and pick it
up and start it and put it down and come
back to it and pick it up that it will
take you as much as
500% of the necessary time to do a task
than if you picked it up and carried it
through no one has any idea if it's
going to work that is a painful cost of
trying
to do things with no promise that
they're going to succeed if you knew
that it was going to work there would be
no risk in doing it you haven't been
given this bespoke
idiosyncratic challenge that only you
have to face this is what every person
who gets from a place that they are to a
place that they want to be has to go
through because you need to try things
with no promise that they are going to
work what are you doing when you're
stuck man you're dwelling when you're
stuck and not moving up ah you're
thinking about all the reasons why when
something you're working on is not
progressing and it feels like it's at a
standstill and you are just stuck man it
is so hard not to just like sit in a
place of dwelling and and being so angry
at all the decisions that you made to
get you here it is
always like the worst feeling because it
basically compounds the negativity and
in turn creates the negative energy that
just makes the entire thing worse and
something else bad happens it is just
the epitome of when you are not in a
state of putting energy into your
situation or creating a new outcome a
new Lane a new direction of when you get
stuck you get stuck in your mind the
deepest in the
darkest you have to work every single
day I think that's where your confidence
comes from because when nobody's looking
that's the time that really counts
that's the time that really matters the
working out at 5 6: a.m. and then all
the practices and all the extra
conditioning that work that you do every
single day is is key because that's what
you're going to be able to fall back on
and that's what you're going to be able
to like rely on when push comes to
show I had Big Dreams a lot of us have
Big Dreams big goals and when you have
goals that are maybe outside your reach
you have to know that getting to that
goal you're going to have a lot of bad
days when when I fail I can't spend much
time in that fail Zone I have to be able
to get up and get after the next day
just as
fast I think the easiest thing in life
is to give up on whatever you know
whatever you're focused on or whatever
you're hopeful for the hardest thing is
to to keep going but we have to like we
have to continue to hold on and I would
imagine for so many people out there
that is that that is probably the most
difficult thing if you give up on your
dreams if you give up on your dreams
what do you have
left nothing everything that you want
but you don't have is outside of your
comfort zone and what I have learned in
my potential path journey is that there
are tradeoffs all along the way at every
critical juncture in a person's life if
they want to go to the next level they
don't go to the next level by just
stepping up they go to the next level by
realizing they've got to give something
up to go there
[Music]
close your eyes for a second imagine
you're in a room full of strangers and
you're asked to describe yourself in
just five
words what words come to
mind now think about this do any of
these words make someone stop look at
you and think
wow I'd like to be like that do those
words Inspire admiration curiosity or
even respect or are they just words
words that might sound cool for a moment
but don't carry any real
weight here's the harsh reality if those
words don't Inspire others or even
yourself then what's their purpose are
they moving you forward or are they just
anchors keeping you stuck in the same
place day after day year after year but
I want you to ask yourself a bigger
question are these words reflective of
who you really want to be do they embody
the qualities achievements and values
you aspire to the good news is that you
don't have to stay stuck you can choose
to redefine yourself to pick words that
Inspire action and reflect the person
you want to become it won't be easy but
nothing worthwhile ever
is the second step is realizing that you
can change your narrative at any moment
maybe right now your five words don't
reflect who you want to be that's okay
the beauty of life is that you're not
stuck you can start
today here's an exercise to help you
write down five words that describe you
right now be brutally honest are there
words like procrastin Ator gamer or
average if so that's fine but now it's
time to replace them with something
better next choose five new words words
that reflect the person you want to
become maybe it's athlete Creator or
leader these words should challenge you
they should push you to
grow and here's the
secret you don't have to be perfect to
use these words you just have to take
the first step
if you want to be an athlete start
running if you want to be a leader start
taking a responsibility in your
community if you want to be a Creator
start
creating the third step is surrounding
yourself with the right people the
people in your life have a massive
impact on your identity if you spend all
your time with people who settle for
mediocrity you'll start settling too but
if you surround yourself with people who
push thems those who take risks and who
aim for greatness you'll naturally start
doing the
same finally understand that this
process is ongoing redefining yourself
isn't something you do once and forget
about it's a lifelong journey there will
be setbacks there will be moments where
you slip into Old Habits but what
matters is that you keep moving
forward the words you choose to Define
yourself aren't just words
they're a reflection of your values your
priorities and your potential so Choose
Wisely now that we've explored the
importance of redefining yourself let's
get practical here are five actionable
steps to help you transform your
identity and your
life one take an honest
inventory start by writing down the five
words you currently use to describe
yourself be as honest and specific as
possible for example instead of just
saying unmotivated you might write
always postponing gym sessions this step
is about identifying where you are right
now next ask yourself are these words
reflective of who you want to be if the
answer is no then you have the power to
change them two choose five new
words now it's time to pick five new
words that represent the person you want
to become these words should inspire you
and push you to grow write these words
down and keep them somewhere visible
every time you look at them they should
remind you of the path you're on three
align your actions with your
words words are powerful but they mean
nothing without action if you want to
call yourself an athlete you need to
start training if you want to be a
writer you you need to write every
single day your actions should bring
your words to life start small don't
overwhelm Yourself by trying to change
everything overnight focus on one action
at a time and build momentum from there
four find role models and
mentors the fastest way to level up your
life is by learning from people who are
already where you want to be fine role
models to embody the traits you admire
study their habits their mindset and
their
Journey better yet seek out mentors who
can guide you these are people who can
hold you accountable and help you
navigate the challenges
ahead five track your
progress transformation doesn't happen
overnight it's a slow consistent process
reflect on your actions every week are
they aligned with your new words
are you moving closer to the person you
want to
become if you find yourself slipping
don't beat yourself up use it as an
opportunity to learn and
refocus your life is a reflection of the
words you choose if those words don't
inspire you challenge you or push you to
grow then what are they doing for
you you don't have to do this alone this
channel is here to guide you every step
of the way leave a comment with your
five new words and let's hold each other
accountable together we can transform
not just our words but our lives so take
action today choose words that Inspire
and show the world what you're truly
capable of
if you are someone who's ambitious and
this is me just talking specifically to
you you have to get used to being
alone I'm saying this because I used to
think that there was something wrong
with me when in reality I just didn't
understand what the nature of being
exceptional
meant to be exceptional means that you
are the exception it means that you are
not normal and so it's normal for normal
people to find you abnormal if you do
things that are not normal I had plenty
of friends who were like I want to be an
NFL player I want to be a really rich
Tech entrepreneur I want to be a a a
touring musician right and they had
these goals but I'm like dude I see you
just playing fortnite 4 hours a day and
you you practice guitar once a week like
what do you really want that or do you
just like saying it because it makes you
feel good realizing that I thought most
people actually made no sense they say
they had these goals but they took no
action and they called me work obsessed
they they would tell me I should take
time off and they're like hey you're not
you're not you're not as cool anymore
you're not you're not hanging out with
the boys like why aren't you
participating in the fantasy league why
aren't you watching football on Sunday
with us but the thing is is like I
needed that Sunday cuz I had to prep
workout I had to run billing and I
looked at that football game and I was
like one year from today will I remember
this football game or will I remember
the fact that I'm not where I said I
wanted to
be do you really have to become old and
full of regret to learn the lessons of
someone old and regretful absolutely not
we are all spoiled by the abundance of
information and advice from those that
have been around much longer than us but
almost nobody decides to listen the
information is free My Eyes Are Open and
my ears listen and it works it is so
crazy to see the downfalls of
generations past to then watch your own
generation ignorantly follow suit please
do not follow
suit the harsh reality is and it's not
even a harsh reality it's actually
extremely exciting this path this
journey adventure to success it's long
it's long and you will go through
different stages and you will be forced
to be put in in uncomfortable
situations but you will learn along the
way and grow with each phase that you
enter right now you're you're at like a
middle stage like I said this is where a
lot of people get stuck because this is
the stage of really figuring out who you
are and why you do what you do and it
takes a lot of time and a lot of
patience and you have to ask yourself a
lot of questions and dedicate time to
yourself you need to embrace the
isolation that comes with this isolate
yourself really this is such a pure
special moment in your life embrace that
really
just this is how it needs to
be believe in yourself and don't and
don't beely on anybody to believe in you
don't beely on anybody to push you or
make you better believe in yourself and
only yourself and live your life with
character honor and discipline if you
live that way I guar dantee you your
goals and dreams will will get
accomplished I define success by you
continually continuously fighting always
showing up every single day by whatever
is in front of you and put one step in
front of the other regardless what the
outcome may be you just continue to
fight every and any obstacle in front of
you that is my definition of
success you have to remember that your
anxiety is not being caused by external
things your frustrations are not being
caused by external things no one is
responsible for your emotions but
yourself I know that's easy to say it's
very hard to put in practice I struggle
with it all the time but that's the idea
Mark says I escaped my anxiety today he
says no I discarded it cuz it was within
me he is the cause of his own anxiety he
is what brings that to external events
not the other way around we have to
remember that always no one can make you
upset no one can make you mad no one can
make you sad no one can make you feel
inferior as Elanor roselt says without
your consent we are complicit in those
emotions we choose to have them external
things are not responsible for
[Music]
them instead of waiting for the perfect
moment just start stop questioning if
you're ready and trust that you'll
figure it out as you go the perfect
moment doesn't exist the conditions will
never feel ideal and the timing will
never feel right but action creates
clarity
every small step forward moves you
closer to the life that you've been
imagining stop holding back for a
version of yourself that doesn't even
exist yet you're ready now so take the
leap everything will work
out I know everything will work out
because I tell myself that every single
day and guess what it works out every
single time and it doesn't always work
out in the way I expected but but it
works out and that's just kind of the
mindset I've adopted is that
everything's going to work out and I
know it's going to work out because I'm
putting myself first I know it's going
to work out because I'm really trying my
best and that's all you could really do
is try your best but if you try your
best you're going to have the best shot

succeeding when the Buddha was asked
what is the biggest mistake that humans
make the Buddha replied the biggest
mistake that humans make is to think
they have time I will get more money but
I will not get any more time and I don't
know how much time I have but I'm not
going to allow you to waste
it time is a
currency don't waste it find your
purpose and this will keep and take care
of
yourself your life doesn't have to look
like someone else's you might not get
married by 30 you might not have your
dream job by 35 you might not have a
family by 40 but that doesn't mean you
won't have an incredible life don't let
timelines and deadlines stop you from
experiencing your
[Music]
life there comes a point in everyone's
life when you're faced with a
choice do you move forward or do you
turn back it's that gut wrenching Soul
testing moment where everything seems to
be against you where every ounce of
logic Whispers give up it's not worth it
but let me tell you something this
moment isn't just a roadblock it's the
turning point of your story the moment
that will Define your life isn't when
everything is going smoothly it's when
everything seems possible yet you find
the strength to keep
going think about the greats Michael
Jordan was cut from his high school
basketball team Oprah Winfrey was fired
and told she wasn't fit for television
JK Rawlings Harry Potter manuscript was
rejected by 12 Publishers each of these
individuals had a turnback moment and
they could have said maybe they're right
maybe I'm not good enough but they
didn't here's the question for you what
if your success your breakthrough is
waiting on the other side of just one
more step what if by giving up now
you're sealing your
fate because here's the truth when you
give up the guarantee is that it will
never happen the only way the
possibility remains is if you keep
going so what is a turnback moment it's
that place where the pain the obstacles
and the doubt all converge daring you to
quit it's that critical moment when
everything feels heavier than it ever
has
before picture this you're climbing a
steep Mountain you've been hiking for
hours and your legs feel like they're on
fire the Summit is still out of sight
and a little voice in your head Whispers
turn back it's too far it's too hard
you're not sure how much farther you can
go but here's the catch you're closer to
the top than you think one of the most
remarkable examples of a turn back
moment is Thomas
Edison after thousands of failed
experiments trying to invent the light
bulb someone asked him why don't you
quit you failed over and over again
Edison replied I haven't failed I've
just found 10,000 ways that won't
work Edison could have turned back but
he didn't and because he kept going he
didn't just succeed he changed the world
your turnback moment may not feel as
Grand but it's just is critical it's
that job interview where you're on the
verge of giving up hope it's that
business idea that hasn't taken off yet
it's the fitness goal that seems
impossible these moments may be
different but the principle is the same
on the other side of that moment is your
breakthrough but only if you refuse to
quit quitting feels like relief it feels
like an escape from the pressure the
judgment and the fear of failure but
here's the cold hard truth quitting
comes with its own guarantee it
guarantees that whatever you were
fighting for will never happen think
about that for a moment quitting isn't
just walking away from your dream it's
locking the door behind you and throwing
away the key it's saying I'm not willing
to see this
through that's the tragedy of quitting
it's often the point where you're
closest to
success here's a story for you there was
a man who mined for gold during in the
California Gold Rush for years he dug
tirelessly finding nothing finally he
gave up and sold his equipment to
another prospector that prospector took
over dug in the exact same spot and
struck gold just 3 ft below where the
first man had stopped 3 ft that's how
close many people are when they quit
they're 3 ft from gold and yet they
turned back convinced it's
[Music]
impossible but here's the good news
as long as you keep going the
possibility remains that's what makes
perseverance so powerful it doesn't
guarantee success but it keeps the door
open it keeps the dream
alive so why must you keep going because
the alternative living a life of regret
is far
worse perseverance isn't just about hard
work it's about belief it's about
believing that your efforts no matter
how small or slow are building towards
something
greater the next time you're tempted to
give up remember this progress isn't
always visible just because you can't
see the results yet doesn't mean they're
not happening seeds grow underground
long before they break through the
soil here's a strategy when doubt Creeps
in focus on just one more step not the
entire Journey just the next step write
one more page make one more call take
one more shot it's those small
consistent actions that separate the
successful from the
quitters when you feel like quitting ask
yourself who will I become if I keep
going what kind of person do I want to
be because success isn't just about
achieving your goal it's about becoming
the person who refuses to give up no
matter
what let's bring this home your turn
back moment is coming if it hasn't
already and when it does you'll be faced
with the same Choice as everyone else
else move forward or give
up if you give up the guarantee is that
it will never happen but if you keep
going even when it feels impossible you
keep the door open you keep the dream
alive this is your moment don't waste it
don't let fear win don't let doubt
decide your
future the pain of pushing forward is
temporary but the regret of quitting
that lasts
forever so what's it going to to be will
you turn back or will you take one more
