Everywhere you look you can
see normal people going about their life, struggling to make ends meet. These
people have for a variety of reasons decided to settle for the life they are
living, they have resigned themselves for what they believe is the only way to
live. You have also come across very reasonable people, who are barely
surviving day by day wondering when the next meal will come from. You have also
been told by your friends or family members to be realistic just because you
told them of your intention to become more than you are. They were quick to
point out your shortcomings and, gently told you to look for something easily
achievable. Every single day you see people who are trying to change their life
in the mist of those, who have no intention of rocking the boat.
If you are not willing to
become unreasonable in the eyes of the majority, you will soon find yourself
doing what everybody expects of you. You have probably been told more than once
to use your common sense, if you want to be acknowledged by others. You need to
ask yourself if you want to use common sense and, end up like those who are
willing you to do so. Have you ever seen a successful person who is worried
about what others think? Have ever seen a truly successful person who is afraid
to make decision because of what others will say? If you want to achieve you
dream in life, you have to be willing to ignore what unsuccessful people are
trying to make you do. Your life is shape by what you think and the kind of
actions you take every single day.
You have to forget about
that limiting language so preferred by those who have never achieved anything
worthwhile in their life. Your words betray your thoughts and, your thoughts
are formed by those you listen to and your ability to think clearly. There are
rules about everything, these rules are man-made and if you believe that those
rules are limiting your ability to move forward and live a fulfilled life, you
have the responsibility to change them. The concepts like realistic, reasonable
and common sense are used by many to limit the development and the fulfilment
of others. If you cannot find something to help you move forward in your chosen
path, you should consider creating it. You should never settle for what is
available because you cannot find what you want, that is soul destroying.
When you decide to remain
just a nurse because you don’t think you are good enough to become a doctor, a
day will not go by without you regretting your decision to give up on your
dream. Every time you meet a doctor, you will be asking yourself what it could
have been. You will have to live with that for the rest of your life because,
every decision you take has consequences sometimes life-long effect on you. You
should aim to do everything within your power and beyond to become successful
including, become abnormal, uncommon and unreasonable. You don’t become what
others want to be, you become what you want after all it is your life, live it
your way on your own terms most of all refuse to be normal because normal
people are living the life of others not theirs.
