So awhile back I went to yoga and it was so awesome because they have a tradition where they do questions of the day and there was one particular one that inspired and stuck with me.
_____________________________________________________________________________
The question of the day is this….
what are you willing to do to reach the goal you want?
are you willing to change your way of thinking to become positive?
are you willing to refuse any negative thoughts from entering your head?
are you willing to break bad habits?
are you willing to change who you are to reach that goal?
are you willing to get up early and stay up late?
are you willing to stand up for yourself, even if you’re the only fighting for what you want?
are you willing to accept that no one in this world loves your dream as much as you and no one will fight for it as hard as you?
it’s hard but are you willing to go against the grain to achieve your goal and not stop there but fight for excellence? For perfection?
What are you willing to give up to reach your goal?
are you willing to let go of those who bring you down?
are you willing to let go of all of the past baggage to now live in the present?
are you wiling to leave a whole world that you knew behind to a new place packing only your hope and courage?
are you willing to leave behind all of your doubts and brave onto your journey?
are you willing to take this chance knowing you could lose it all but gain something else?
are you willing to give up other’s dreams to pursue your own?
are you willing to let go those you hold dear in pursuit of something you believe in?
What will you do to get there?
will you fall and get back up?
times will get rough but will you listen to the voice in your gut telling you to try again? to push on? to stride hard towards your dreams?
Who do you want to be?
Always strive for excellence every day. Be the best you can be. Love others. Let go of those who don’t support you. Remember to care for your community. Compassion counts a lot when no one is looking. Who do you want to be? What life do you want to leave behind?
