What do you want in life? What are you willing to give and or give up to accomplish it?

Thee are some thoughts that have been going through my brain lately. Even when I know where I want to be, situations sometimes arise and tempt me from following the path I have chosen. Its in these times that I have to remind myself why I’m here, why I have chosen my goals and why I live my life this way.

There are times when short-term enjoyment appears and is enticing even when you know that in the long-term it would work out and probably would run contrary to your goals.

When these times and situations come at you do you have the mental fortitude to stay the cause? Can you stave off the temptation, or will you compromise to scratch that itch? The person you are is defined by your actions, choices, if you are true to yourself, your goals and you values.

Some live by what feels right at the moment, feelings however change, they can’t be trusted. Something that feels right at the moment can feel wrong seconds later. Some may think down on you for thinking things through and not just acting on impulse. Don’t let these people phase you; you are stronger for holding yourself to your convictions. So take it in stride and continue to live life the way you have chosen to live and be proud of it.
