Everything comes with a price, and success comes with many names and faces. Nobody gets everything. Or maybe I should say, nobody gets everything all at once. You attract to yourself the things that you focus the most energy on. Sometimes at the cost of other things you want. This is why we prioritize. This is why the things we want are always within our reach. But no one is just going to hand them to us. The perfect job, a fulfilling relationship, supportive friends, a happy family - the basic things we all strive for. However, it's incredibly difficult to make all of these things #1 in our lives. If you're unhappy with one, two, or all of these categories, look at how you prioritize. Could you sacrifice a little bit of one to have more of another? Which is really most important to you right now? Are you putting your energy into something other than what is really important to you? Take inventory. Look at your actions, because they define you 99% more than anything you say or feel. You may feel pressure to have one thing, but if you truly desire something else, switch your focus. Get out there and get what you want, and cut out the meaningless crap. Check the failures and baggage at the door. Stop repeating the same stupid mistakes. Be honest with yourself, and everyone else. It's probably going to be incredibly difficult, maybe scary, and may gain the disapproval of those who don't really know you or understand you. Don't listen to them. Listen to your heart, and then react with your head. You have the ability, and have no excuses. Start small, build, and keep going, for God's sake, just keep going. You'll get there.
