We live in a world that is swimming with unlimited amounts of choice. Therefore, it's even more important for you to cherish the people in your life who go to battle for you day in and day out. This commitment is one of the rarest things of all.
But why are we so afraid to commit? because we don't want to screw it all up and make ourselves look stupid if we fail.
So instead, we swim in choice. We swim in all of the choice that is our world today and unfortunately it doesn't really do us any good.
All of the choice becomes a paralysis in itself. We have so many options that we can't actually end up making a decision at all.
So when you really take a minute to look at someone who is chasing their dreams, you can begin to appreciate the rarity of commitment.
But most people don't want to get hurt.
They don't want to do the wrong thing and step on anyones toes. They don't want to make waves and be impolite.
And yet, by playing it safe...
They of course avoid getting really hurt...
But also prevent themselves from being everything and anything they could have been if they really had actually dove headfirst into what they always dreamed of. They stop themselves from looking bad, but they never get to see the light of what they could have been.
And for many, by the time they realize that they had been living in this story, it is far too late.
So go hard in life. Go after it. Go after whatever you want to do in your life because you really only have one shot at it.
Because if you fail to take that leap of faith, you will end up at the final moments of your life wishing that you had always really given it a good go.
And if it does finally work out for you, you get to experience what it's like to have truly believed in something and really gone for it.
And to learn that lesson is priceless.
