Risky

What do you have to lose by going after what you want? Sure it's hard at first, and sometimes scary, but if you really want it, what's holding you back? Excuses. When I'm scared to do something because the result might not be what I want, I make excuses for why I shouldn't do it. But, in the end, I am just fooling myself, hurting myself. I always regret not going after it, I always wonder what could have been, and there's no way to go back and do it again. There is no way to determine which path is better, you just have to go with your heart.

It kind of goes back to the Philosophy class I took last semester. What constitutes living a good and fulfilling life? In order to truly be satisfied you can't have regrets and you can't let opportunities pass you by.

Carpe diem -- seize the day. 

Revamp

I have decided to revamp my blog. From now on, I have decided to start my posts with one of my favorite/relevant quotes. I think it's going to be a great way to adapt quotes to my life, and it's a great way for me and those people that read this blog, to remember that they are not alone on the journey of life. Everyone around them is facing their own issues, some graver than others, but difficult none the least. No one is alone. Remember that.

Nothing Comes Easy

My New Year's Resolution consisted of going after what I want, no matter what it is. Thus far I have been doing pretty well, but lately, it has become much more difficult. Going after what you want sometimes leads to being more vulnerable and putting yourself out there. You have to be willing to get hurt. It's so hard, but if you end up getting that which you went after, you will be all that much more satisfied. The bigger the risk, the bigger the gain.

Words to ALWAYS remember.
