Live in the present, not the future, not the past.

In life we all have to make choices, some big some small. Some of those choices just tell you what ice cream flavor you'll have that night. Some of them determine what career you will have for the rest of your life.Mark Hansen, motivation speaker once said to an audience, 

"Don't wait until everything is just right. It will never be perfect. There will always be challenges, obstacles and less than perfect conditions. So what. Get started now.With each step you take,you will grow stronger and stronger, more and more skilled, more and more self-confident and more and more successful."

 

I always strive to live my life by this quote. I believe that every time you look down and decide not to jump you waste a precious second of your short time here on earth. So many people aren't given chances in life. They don't have the oppurtunity to make the choice because they are being oppresed by some sort of a hardship. Take a second to think what if that was me. What if I coundn't decide to play basketball becuase I was in a whhelchair. Maybe then you would be willing to take more of a chance at life.

We are human and we all live on this earth. We all make mistakes, but what defines us is if we sit in those mistakes and wallow or if we pop back up and try again. You can't wait forever to try again either. the longer you wait the more anxiety you build up and the more dangerous your task seems. New experince develop your character and your charecter is the way others view you.

So next time your scared to leap wondering if it's worth taking a chance just remind yourself... hold Nothing back.
