I always have this thought: If I were to die today, what legacy would I leave behind? Who's life did I change? What contributions did I make during my time on this earth? Did I waste away the time that God so graciously gave me?
Sometimes I feel like I do. Sometimes I feel like I'm not living up to my full potential. Like I said, I know where I wanna be and what it takes to get there. Sometimes I just scare myself with my lack of drive I have to just get up and do it. Sometimes I wonder if it's just my fear of actually succeeding that holds me back. Sometimes I wonder about a lot of things.
Its a beautiful thing B,
ReplyDeleteYou work so hard to achieve something like a degree, that the process of it engulfs your ambitions and original intent for pursuing the degree in the first place.
When you can finally take a step back, and see the finish line in front of you, you wonder what in the hell are you going to do once you actually cross the finish line.
Sorta like the analogy of breakup to new love. You can never see someone replacing or being as good as that one you just cut loose, and then when someone else manifests, you cant believe you thought the last one was worth your time and effort.
Put all of your attention on getting there first, and then you will be amazed how quickly and how clearly your sights set on the next goal.
