Time to ignore the statistics
Time to ignore the statistics. I do not want to live my life as if failing is to be avoided. If anything, it should be pursued. If you are not failing, you have never really tried. Don’t be dragged down by negative people. Simply give them the option to walk alongside you. You too must choose to walk alongside those who are above you. You will need them.
Growth is painful. In order to leave room for the new, you must destroy the old. This is not easy. However, if you are going to try, go all the way.
Roll the dice - Charles bukowski
if you’re going to try, go all the
way.
otherwise, don’t even start.
if you’re going to try, go all the
way. this could mean losing girlfriends,
wives, relatives, jobs and
maybe your mind.
go all the way.
it could mean not eating for 3 or
4 days.
it could mean freezing on a
park bench.
it could mean jail,
it could mean derision,
mockery,
isolation.
isolation is the gift,
all the others are a test of your
endurance, of
how much you really want to
do it.
and you’ll do it
despite rejection and the
worst odds
and it will be better than
anything else
you can imagine.
if you’re going to try,
go all the way.
there is no other feeling like
that.
you will be alone with the
gods
and the nights will flame with
fire.
do it, do it, do it.
do it.
all the way
all the way.
you will ride life straight to
perfect laughter,
it’s the only good fight
there is.
Thank you.
I am posting this before i go and work on the robot. my posts become more poetic and brief as time goes on. The daily post will need to resemble a reminder to stay on track more than a deep dive into a topic. This will save more room for those. Continue on, wherever you are in life. There is opportunity all around you. Take it.
