Do the Work and You'll go far

There is no passion to be found playing small-in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living."

-Nelson Mandela

Many people just don’t have an inclination toward introspection. This is one of the best ways to see what you’re doing, why you’re doing it, and how you can improve at it. 

What drives you?. What are you passionate about?. What is that one thing you'll trade everything in the world to have?. What is that thing you love you do. If you have an answer then how much time are you giving this utmost desire everyday. 

"Nothing is as important as passion. No matter what you want to do with your life, be passionate."

-Jon Bon Jovi

Consider the ways you can unwittingly sacrifice your time to this passion and then consider how to change your habits through greater self awareness.

Contemplate your most treasured activities. What do you wish you had more time to do? These are not merely indulgences. These are the aspects of your life to which you must delegate as much time as possible if you want to feel content. 

This is the 'Work'. Sacrificing all for that one single calling. Going the extra mile to fuel your passion and achieve your goal. This is what makes life beautiful.

At the end of the day, let there be no excuses, no explanations, no regrets.
