There comes a time in the lives of those destined for greatness when we must stand before the mirror of meaning and ask: Why, having been endowed with the courageous heart of a lion, do we live as mice?
We must look squarely into our own tired eyes and examine why we waste so much time sniffing at every distraction,why we cower at the thought of revealing our true selves to the world, why we scurry so quickly from conflict,and why we consent to play small.
We must ask why we participate so humbly in society’s frantic race, allowing ourselves into its mazes of mediocrity and settling for scraps of reward when nature has offered unlimited freedom, power, and abundance to the bold, the determined, the creative,the independent—to each of us.
We must ask if our desires to feel safe and accepted are in fact enslaving us to popular opinion [and getting approval and having to please others]—and to boredom. We must ask: When will we be ready to ascend to another level of existence?
Brendon Burchard, The Motivation Manifesto
I recommend this book very, very strongly. You can get a free copy of it (pay shipping cost only) at: The Motivation Manifesto. (I am not compensated in any way for this).
How will you respond to this?
No, no, I'll wait until later, when I'm ready... I'm too busy now... I can't let go of all of these demands on my time...
Really????
(It appears that these people should read my ebook for 99 cents at Amazon: Life Value Productivity (includes how I freed up 4+ hours a day of irrelevant, low value living).
