I should be doing a million other things right now. I’ve got sponsors to get back to, I’m 6 shows behind in production, but I’ve got to get something off my chest.
It is something that I’ve thought about for quite some time now and we actually discussed is briefly on today’s FFAF (that’s Free For All Friday) show.
Here’s the deal…
I’m tired of seeing people be tossed around with no direction, no passion and no desire to make a difference in the world. I see it from passionless people going to work every day like mindless drones. I see it when kids graduate college and they take the first job that pays decent money that comes their way.
I walk by people on the street and I can see the look in their eye. They’re just existing. They have no passion, they have no purpose.
It’s time to figure out what the hell you’re here for and start doing that. I know so many gifted and talented people who are wasting their lives and their creative energy working for some corporation who doesn’t give a rat’s ass about them.
You might be asking me why I’m writing about this subject vs how important it is to drink green smoothies and make kale shakes. All that is fine and dandy but they won’t help too much if you’re depressed because you’re doing a job you hate.
How long is it going to take you to drink that green juice? About 5 minutes? Well turns out you’re going to be at work for about 8 hours.
You need to fix that.
So why don’t many people know what they want to do with their lives? I believe the system has set it up that way. Its job is to keep you busy, keep you occupied, keep you sick, keep you in debt, and keep you believing.
If they’ve done that, they’ve done their job. People have never had time in their lives to reconnect with their childhood passions because they’re too busy getting ready to work, driving to work and actually working. They’re too busy feeling depressed and drinking because of it. They’re too sick and don’t have any energy, drive or creativeness to figure out who they are and what their purpose is.
C’mon man. Wake up from the dream!
Figure out who you are, what you’re here for and draw a line in the sand. Make it known that this is who I am and this is what I stand for and this is the way I’m going. If none of you guys like it, well then hasta la vista.
Stop taking good opportunities because they pay well. Stop doing something you’re good at but don’t enjoy just because it gives you security. I realize we all have bills to pay, mouths to feed and families to support. But damnit start working on your projects on the side.
Do something creative instead of sitting there watching TV and becoming a programmed sheep. You’re better than that. You have more to offer the world than watching hours upon hours of mindless jibberish on the “tel-a-vision”.
It’s my contention that when we make clear intentions about what our life is going to be about the domino’s in front of us magically start falling down paving the way for our dreams to come true. Turn on that siren, draw that line in the sand so traffic stops to let you through just like a police car.
Invest in yourself. Start reading and start spending your time doing whatever the hell it is that you’re passionate about and figure out how to build a business around it later. But at the very least stop drinking and watching TV.
You’ve got one life to live, don’t waste your time doing meaningless crap that just makes you escape from your boring life.
Create a life that’s not boring. Create a life that changes the world. Create a life that impacts people and helps them do what they love. Don’t think it’s possible? Think it might take too long? Don’t think you can ever find what it is you’re passionate about?
Think again because millions of other people have done it and the world is a better place because of it. If people with less money and less resources have done it what the hell are you still waiting for?
The world needs what you have to offer.
Are you going to step up and make a difference or are you gonna go back to watching TV?
