Initiative

Why do we let life happen to us? We sit around and wait for things to happen to us and then wonder why we don't have the things we truly desire. That could be relationships, career, school, etc. If you want it, chase it. I'm tired of watching people sit around wasting their lives. I mean, I do it too. But wouldn't it be nice if we went after life instead of it just happening to us? Maybe it's fear that stops us. I don't know. I just know that we miss out on a lot of great opportunities. Don't let life happen to you.

This is how I always say it.... I would rather say "I tried", than to say "what if?"

Agreed. I feel like I never took advantage of a few opportunities in a few aspects of my life in high school and shortly after. Way too timid. I try to tell my family members that are younger than me that if they have something they want or someone they want, they need to go for it. It's not fun thinking back and wondering about it.

I agree with you man, but I will say that there needs to be prayer put into every major decision we make. You can go out and have great expectations and end up doing more damage than good. I would say that we need to make things happen, but again with considerable thought put into what the consequences will be.
