“What Did You Expect?”

Which of the following is better?

A. Aiming for the stars and hitting the moon

Or

B. Aiming for the moon and hitting the stars

I’d guess it’s probably difficult for you to answer without additional information like knowing what the expectations were, right?

How many of you are leading your life in that same manner? That is, have you set expectations for your life? If so, what’s your success rate? Are you over or under achieving?

Think back to when you were a kid. What was it you wanted out of life? What were your biggest dreams and desires?

For many of us it’s pretty simple – a loving spouse, a happy family, a nice house in a nice neighborhood and a nice job so we could “have it all”.

How’d THAT work out for you?

Did you make it to the stars? How about the moon? How about someplace totally different than you ever imagined?

So,what are you going to do about it? Are you going to complain that all life ever gives you is lemons? Are you going to pull yourself back up by the proverbial “bootstraps”?  Are you going to change anything to improve your condition or just continue down the same path?

What you get out of life is up to you! Set some goals. Take action and make changes to your life. Shake it up a bit. Take some chances. Try something new.

Live life!

Don’t delay!

I love words & enjoy the freedom of writing. I strive to find the exact word to convey not only my thoughts, but also my feelings. I desire to fill the paper with words much the same way an artist fills the canvas with paint. To me, writing is an art form.
