Awesome words! Thank you John for your inspiration as well!

But of course Kenny, we both just want to see people achieve their highest selves and stop living life going through the motions. It is so important for us to not be sheep because there are so many sheep already. We need to he herders of our own lives and choose what makes us happy.

Of course people have their opinions and suggestions as to what they think makes us happy (gadgets, cars, money, etc) but our hearts tells us everyday what actually makes each of us really come alive.

The hardest part is following it because of fear as you stated. Excuses. That’s all they are. I will continue to post this quote until everyone starts following their heart and doing what they are passionate about.

“If it’s important to you, you’ll find a way. If not, then you’ll find an excuse.”

Again, thanks for being an inspiration to all of us Kenny!

Thanks Jim! I knew the “But” in the title would draw you in…haha…only kidding. 😉

As always, thank you both for the support! That is an awesome read, thanks for sharing!

Steph sent me a link after she read the “Alive right now” post. Some points are reflective of what you have stated again in this post. We need to continue strive to move forward but also allow ourselves to be shaped along the way.

Here are a few samples from the link she sent me.

5. Resolved, Never to lose one moment of time, but to improve it in the most profitable way I possibly can.

6. Resolved, To live with all my might, while I do live.

7. Resolved, Never to do any thing, which I should be afraid to do if it were the last hour of my life.

Here is the link if you want to take something from it for a future post.

Thanks for the comment Adam! I really appreciate it and am glad that the post helped!

Thanks for the kinds words Kellie!!!! I totally agree with your conversation. This needs to be the year of the DO!

This is a great post. This is a problem I’ve always struggled with so it’s a timely reminder!

Thanks

I was just having a conversation yesterday about excuses being a waste of time and energy. You can keep complaining about how you can’t do something, or just start doing it. Even if it’s just one small thing at a time!
