MindFood - Live your passion, be true to yourself, accept the rest

“There are many who are living far below their possibilities because they are continually handing over their individualities to others. Do you want to be a power in the world? Then be yourself. Be true to the highest within your soul and then allow yourself to be governed by no customs or conventionalities or arbitrary man-made rules that are not founded on principle.”— Ralph Waldo Trine

“If you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want and all that is left is a compromise.”— Robert Fritz
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Why do we settle. Why do we give-up our SELF and replace it with a copy of someone else? Why do we compromise the BIG something that we want and settle for that which is enough for someone else? Trading the fullness, the essence, the passion and gthe exuberance of YOU for the contentment, the safety, the comfort of what others think is “living”.

Is the world a better place with a bunch of robots everywhere? Ugh! …. Why do we settle for so much less than we are and accept the emotions which come with that (ie. half-happiness, just contentment, a safe stupor) instead of LIVING LIFE? Because we are afraid? Afraid of what? What others will say about us? Afraid that the excitement of living our real LIFE will create pain? Afraid of the envy of everyone else who know down inside that they ache to be themselves too? Hmmmmmm …. I am running out of reasons not to be MYSELF!!!!!! How about you????? … but … do you have the GUTS to be YOU?
