Run Forward
Like everybody else,
we thought we could defy the world
we thought we could create something incredible
we thought we could be the best.
like everybody else,
we slept for only the minimal hours per week
and transformed into a vampire by the weekend
we spent our reading hours of huck finn on spark notes
and diet coke replaced water.
the key to success all seem to fit the same criteria: work extremely hard and you might get somewhere great.
yet, many people never truly listen to that piece of wisdom.
we all think something, but the correct actions never follow.
you may not move forward if you are move too quickly backwards
