First off, thank you so much for reading.
Although I may not know your name, know the color of your eyes, or what you’ve been going through within the last few years, but we still share the same board game you and I, which we call “The Game of Life”.
A typical game will keep rolling towards its end which we will find players who consists of winners and losers. But the only difference in the game we’re playing is that the game, will never end.
After we pass on, our torch may be carried on by our children, the neighbors that we’ve given a warm welcome to within the community, or the inspired student that took a powerful interest towards the idea or plan that we’ve left with a mark on this world saying “I was here”.
Although this game doesn’t have an end, unfortunately, some players have already lost because, we will only lose, when we throw in the towel.
Did you already throw in the towel?
Or maybe you’re a player that’s already winning!
Well then one might ask, “How do we know if we’re winning or losing?”
As Earl Nightingale a late speaker/author had once said
“The only person who succeeds is the person who is progressively realizing a worthy ideal. It is the person who says, “I am going to become this,” and then begins to work towards that goal.”
Do you have a burning desire to become a famous singer? A great poet? Or a beautiful artist? Whatever your passion maybe, are you working towards that goal?
Or maybe you are like me who’s still trying to find ourselves in the world and see which pants fits us best.
I have dropped a lot of goals on many things, many times. Because as we grow older, our philosophies on life changes, and we start to realize what truly matters in life, but never falter.
But for those of us who are in the stages of giving up, or have already given up, you’re not alone. There has been many accounts in history where great men have had hesitations on their worthy goals and ideas, but they went on to make it their reality and became great men we know today.
“You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great”
-Zig Ziglar
It’s never too late to pick up where you’ve left off because then,
The game has only started.
-p.s. Thank you for reading my first blog, I would be delighted to read any feed backs or comments you have because small or big, they strive to make me keep on going, thank you :)
