Once again, I realize that many things in this world I am unsure of. Blessed with countless opportunities to excel and rise above the noise of the crowd. Chances slapped right across my face, and yet my constant excuse? Iā€™m only human, Y.O.L.O (you only live once), constant procrastination, lack of persistence and commitment. Why? Why is it that when Iā€™m presented with the chance to grow up and live a life much deserved but then again have no effort to gain it. Do I cower in the shadow of my potential, waiting for nothing to happen? Taking a half hearted approach to some but not all aspects of my life.  A life built upon the hard work and sweat of my parents and their parents, parents. Strong values and beliefs which they nurtured into me, making the very being that I am today. I cannot take up these narrow gaps of escape any more. Its time take a stand and feed my ambition! Get so enthralled in it that I lose myself in my own success. Get so enticed by it, that the need to succeed supersedes the need to breathe.
