At this point
It’s a matter of looking in the mirror
Finding the deepest part of your own soul,
Far deeper than the depps of the sea
Less tangible than the ocean floor.
And harnessing it.

Turns out, it’s not about money,

and it’s not about who you know.
Truly, it can be done without any real skill at all.
Like showing up on time for your life.

Sure, you can tell yourself you’re already late
But that’s so predictable, you’ve
Read that story a hundred times over,
Let’s pick something else.

You know what it’s going to take
To end up where you want to be.
So, are you going to do it?
Why not try because if all else fails,
At least you’ll have done what you set out to do.
