Get Off The Fence

“One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.” Anthony Robbins


The normal average person lives life on the fence. With the dual personages that live inside of us, we fail to pick one and move forward. It does not matter which side you choose of your fence as long as you land with your feet running and running forward. The failure comes from sitting and contemplating which side do I wish to follow. My friends it is not decision of what you want most, it is simply making the decision that makes the difference.

The lack of making the decision will guide you into a default way of life programmed mainly by your government through forms of media, internet, schools, readily available jobs that were taken and not choosen, family members that lead a default life, and the perception of life around a person.

Inside of us our typically two beings... often known as the good and the bad or the ego and the spiritual being. I am not talking about choosing ego over spiritual being as an option... I am speaking of stop separating the two in such a way that it impedes you of forward progress. We are customed to sowing our wild oats. As Neil Strauss said - I will always have wild oats -. Often times we live life with regrets of what we did not do, not what we did do. We are accostumed as human beings to dwell upon the negative and bad things. We are trained this way daily and reconditioned everywhere we turn to focus on the bad. We focus on the problems so much we fail to focus on the solutions. What I speak of as far as separation is the failure to choose a focus. It as if we see hundreds of delicious chocolates at a chocolate store, that we are stumped in making a decision and being able to enjoy and saviour the taste in our mouth. We have so many opportunities in this life, yet we live in failure of grabbing an opportunity and sticking with that opportunity to its maximum! We are always looking for the quick fix.

Even more so we bounce around looking for fulfillment and happiness, when happiness is a choice and an action. It is a distinct decision of making it your focus. The more focused one becomes with their natural talents and abilities, the more the feelings of happiness will swell inside.

It is much easier to say then to live a focused life. Yet we must strive for this.

Get off the fence... it almost matters not which side, just get off, get focused, and run forward.
