"I don't have the time or the money to follow my dreams". These are two perfect reasons for someone of one set of values to keep their dreams in the attic and maintain the status quo of mediocrity perpetuating an endless cycle of the status quo until time exposes the delusion that things will actually remain the same. Those same two reasons for someone with a different set of values are perfect reasons to pull their dreams out of the attic, ignite them, get off the sidelines and onto the playing field of their own life, and do whatever it takes to crystallize those dreams into reality. Same two reasons, two different people, two different sets of values, two drastically different life styles.
Without putting down anyones values, this is a logistical look at these two broad sets of values dictated by the set up of the universe and earths natural inescapable laws, the first person is going to be in the same status quo of mediocrity a year from now until time exposes the delusion in an "even keel" belief and the second person is not. These two opposing sets of values are using the same exact two reasons as perfect reasons to do or not to do with results of to be or not to be. Opposites in contrast give each other their value. Which side of the fence were you on yesterday? Which side of the fence are you on today and tomorrow? What are your values?
If you have dreams, in the attic or out of the attic, I hope the thought of mediocrity makes you want to throw up. I hope the taste it leaves in your mouth is so foul that you set yourself on fire and let the world watch you burn because you realize your purpose on the earth is bigger than yourself. That purpose is more powerful than any obstacle in your path so you can have the self discipline to NOT make emotional decisions to not do "the thing" on the days that you don't feel like it. If you're living a life of mediocrity and subscribing to the popular delusion of maintaining the status quo I hope the thought of not fulfilling your lifes great purpose designed by your creator makes you draw a line in the sand today so you do have the self discipline to do "the thing" every day even on the days you don't feel like it. I hope your plan includes giving service to many people to give you a purpose driven life bigger than yourself.
Give thanks to your creator for giving you the power to completely transform your life and the lives of people around you. Be grateful that you are a human being designed for greatness and then go out there and fulfill your purpose driven life every day. When your purpose is much bigger than yourself then the more success you experience at crystallizing your own dreams into reality then the more significant you are in the lives of others in helping them achieve theirs.
