Your Moment Awaits”
“Your Moment Awaits”
By Michael J. Herman
Michael J. Herman is the author 14 books including the forthcoming Side Hustle With Muscle: Stop Putting Your Talents to The Side and Start Your Small Business.
Now a days, people have become so jaded that they go through life as though posted on the mast of their own ship spotting for cons and pirates out for their own bounty.
Everything has an angle. Any given opportunity has to have a downside. Never get taken or made the fool. Never be too eager or too available for an open hand.
The funny thing is that no matter how hard you try and no matter how many times you deny your truth, the fact is you can succeed and you can be the big winner in life. If you’d stop trying to convince yourself you’re not the one.
The problem is that so many people spend so much time convincing themselves it’s not possible that they never take the plunge and splash into the possible.
Meaning what exactly?
Simple… It means that people con themselves every day out of having it all when the truth is that almost anyone can have it all.
Have all the money in the world?
Not likely.
Have all the toys and all the attention?
Most definitely not.
What then is possible for absolutely anyone?
It’s the opportunity to fully express ones potential.
But all too many quit, or even worse, never try at all.
“But if I’d only tried…”
“If they hadn’t stopped me from… “
“If it were only possible…”
A billion headstones read epitaphs of missed opportunity and lost chances.
But what of you?
What of this very moment?
What of the unwritten future that is waiting desperately for you and only you to explode off the tarmac and light the sky like a rocket ship blasting off for far distant galaxies?
Or the Baby Grand Piano that waits hopelessly in an empty hall for you to compose your unwritten opus?
These are not platitudes or hypotheticals. These are legitimate scenarios you never give yourself the option to explore.
You’re too busy convincing yourself you’re not good enough,
It’s too hard,
You’ll get cheated,
There’s not enough time.
You’re too late, or any one of the tens of thousands of reasons you manufacture rather than doing what God put you here to do.
BE YOU!
For every time you make the excuse, take the easy way out, or let a moment go by in which you failed to grab it by the basketballs and bounce down center court is a moment that you’ve lost in reaching and being your most audacious and most spectacular expression of you.
And that is a sin. If you take that road, you have the right to feel shame. Because the opportunity awaits your entrance in every open moment.
In this moment, be bold.
Be audacious.
Be boundless and reach beyond your reach.
