Why Not You?

So many people today talk and complain about the fact that they are not living their dream or making progress towards their life’s goals or do not have what they want in life because of what the city, the community, or better still the government did not, is not giving or doing for them. That they do not have a great education, better job, and are broke because government failed to give them. Some other groups complain that it is because they are of these skin colour or back ground, or because they are new to this part of the world or that they do not speak in perfect North American slang.

For some it is that I grew up without a father or mother, I grew up in this or that neighbourhood, I did not have a perfect childhood or grew up without any supportive role models. All the reasons these people have giving are all valid by their own perception through their personal actions. The strange thing about this way of looking at life is that, the same reasons they have giving as to why they do not have what they want or their life is not the way they want it, are the same reasons that are preventing them from going after, taking the necessary steps to having and becoming what the really are after in life.

Consider the alternative options:

- If the government did not give you a better education why not you start by signing up for with a community library and get a card which cost you nothing and educate yourself for free now with whatever knowledge or field of study of your choice?
- If you grew up in crime or drug infested part of the city why not you revitalize your/that neighbourhood, after all that is where you grew up or live?
- If you grew up in family that no one had ever had a university education, why not you become the first very first one to do so?
- If you grew you up with an abusive or without a father or mother, why not you decide to be a loving, caring and better father or mother yourself?.
- If your family are all fat and obese, why not you start exercising and become healthy, strong, lean, and full of vitality yourself?
- If your family is always talking about problems, why not you start talking of solutions instead?
- If you grew up in lack and poverty, why not you decide to create a life wealth and abundance for yourself and those you love and care about?
- If you work in a company that people have very low standards and are always late, why not you start living your life in high standards and be early?

Regardless of the circumstance or the conditions of your life or what you lack, did not have or get, it can all change if you decided to change it. Waiting for someone like the city, the government, your father or mother has not cut it for you yet. You can cut it for yourself the way you want and so will you have it the way you want. No matter what it is why not you become it?
