Dream Chasing

In life, we're often bombarded with ideas of what we should be and how we should live. The value of our life feels depreciated if we don't know what we want so we make choices for the sake of making a choice.  There are those of us who make choices on lifestyles that align with what we're  "supposed" to do,  serve  the purpose of "stability", and who coast while trying to "figure" things out.  Most of us, including myself, have chosen one or two while considering the other. What if you chose none of the above to follow your dream(s)?

Too many are afraid to try something that may not fit societal norms, something "nontraditional" because we've been conditioned to always chase security and not passion or purpose. Don't get me wrong, security is important! especially as you get older but the pursuit of that shouldn't sum up your whole life and be the reason for your beautiful existence. Risk taking and changes can be terrifying, the fear can paralyze us and deter us from even possibly trying. Taking risks and making life changes shouldn't equate to making decisions that are illogical, impulsive, and irresponsible but that they be done with the intention of forward progression, moving towards a positive direction in your life. It's always important to remain simultaneously productive and progressive in every decision that you make. Time will pass whether you're doing something you love, something you hate, or nothing at all, so the least you can do is make that time count. Be intentional with your choices so that one day you can see your dreams manifest into the reality you want.
