Fight For What You Believe In

Sometimes in life things don't come together exactly how you planned them. Sometimes the chance to take a shortcut will present itself, it might not lead to exactly where you wanted the trail to go.... but you figure, "Hey.... why not? It's close enough right?!" WRONG!

I'm a firm believer that you have to fight for what you believe in..... (and of course you have to fight, for your right to party.....) I've been quoted time and time again saying, "Find something in this life you believe in and fight for it, with everything you have!"


Your dreams are just that, your dreams, go make them reality! For me, my dream is to go back to school and get my degree, find a nice place to call home for Beth & I, and then start a family. so everyday I work hard to chip away at that mountain....


Whatever your dream is I hope you reach it. If your dream is to flip burgers, fight for it! If your dream is to fly the space shuttle, fight for it! Why not? Life's too short to not be passionate about your dreams and ambitions!


Go get whatever it is you want from the world.... get going! Now, get up, and GO! Seriously! The world isn't going to wait for you! Get to work on your future! It's in no one else's hands but your own!

Break The Rules


One simple rule to live by. Break All The Rules!


If you haven't read this book, Id HIGHLY recommend it! http://ow.ly/1yF5D
It talks about how to do things differently. Why conform to the rules of days gone by? Look where those rules got us, our economy's bleeding to death..... my generation - the milennials -have one of the highest unemployment rates of any generation in recent history, health care - don't even get me started on that one. To be frank, the rules suck! They have proven time and time again to only limit our potential at the "top of the bell curve...." Once your strategy has maxed out, its time to change the rules!
So why not change them constantly, who says that just because no one else in your position at work has asked for a raise that you shouldn't!? Change the rules by proving that you are worthy of being the exception to the rule......presto, NEW RULES, NEW GAME!
There's no playing field you can level- change the game. No mountain you can't overcome- if you can't go over, tunnel under. Nothing can stop you if you chose to break the rules that hold you back from your full potential.
"The best way to see the future is to create it." well in times like today, the best way to still be a part of the future is to invent you place in it!
Short, sweet, & to the point!
