I twitted earlier about me finally realising the true meaning of this quote.
It does not matter if you move fast or slow. Just dont’ stop.
It was a great one and realising it in the subway got me another Eureka moment. For close to a year now, I have been going through a crossroads of deciding on reality and dream. As we all know doing what we are passionate about doesn’t feed the bill at the start, but getting a job will. So it’s always that dilemma right there.
Robert Kiyosaki and T.Harv Eker did mention that we can get work in the day and do our own thing part time at night, which I have to agree. But then again, what if you just feel miserable in the day thinking about your passion in the night? Have you had that uncontrollable feeling?
That’s where I finally learnt that, the reason for having that dilemma was actually looking for security. A security to feed ourselves, but on an easy terms. What if you decide right there and then that no matter what you do, your passion is going to foot the bill, leaving no options but to push yourselves to really push that fire and passion in you. It’s like a person pointing a gun to your head, and that is when adrenaline will rush through your head that you ended up doing things you wouldn’t believe you would do.
I mean if you think about it, many music artist are in that same boat. They just practice and practice and practice and be passionate about it, with living in the street, friends’ couch, van or whatever just to achieve their dream. Of course if you are just hoping to have good luck and don’t do anything to push yourselves, then I wouldn’t recommend you to go down this road.
So I encourage you to follow your passion and heart and live your wildest dreams. Plan ahead on focusing and growing your passion as if your life depends on it, which it actually does to a certain extent.
Till then, dream big…..
