I have been thinking about the virtual cages people put themselves in. For instance I have been working for the past 3 years and I am still not sure whether this is what I wanted in my life. No, I am sure this is not what I wanted. But the problem is I don't know what ELSE once I stop doing what I am doing now.
I think many people I have come across face the same problem. They feel they have it in them to do something bigger, but they find it too hard to let go of what they have. And believe me all of them are holding on to things they don't want.
The most successful people of this world do what they like. And that is what makes them successful. But I don't think just having the courage to let go and follow your dreams makes you successful. It is just that we come to hear only the success stories. There may be hundreds who got trampled on their path and regretted their decisions. You need courage and LUCK.
What then? There are two options. There are two paths.
- One leads to success and happiness. But it is filled with all sorts of dangers and there is a risk of failure.
- The second path is the one most people take. It is easier and crowded of the two. But here you live like Zombies, following the group instead of following your dreams.
I am currently on this second path. I have the choice to go back and take the right one. But the problem is I don't know where it lies. (Sigh)
