"The question isn't who's going to let me; it's who's going to stop me."
- Ayn Rand
As I read this quote, I thought about how I wanted to start a blog for so many years and never pursued it. The excuses I made ranged from saying "I don't know what to write about" to "no one even reads anymore, no one is going to read it". Until one day I decided to put those excuses away and start one. Once I began blogging, I realized that throughout those years of me wanting a blog that I was the one who was keeping me from having one. I was the one who had doubts and didn't believe in myself enough to get my blog off the ground. And now look at me, writing what makes me happy and having consistent, loyal, and supportive readers.
So I thought I could use this quote to not only reflect on me, but to inspire you! I know it's hard to make your dreams come true, but the excuses are not going to make them come true either. It's time to get that salon started. It's time to get that book published. It's time to go back to school and get that degree. It's time to start that coffee shop. It is time to record that EP. It is time to start that organization on campus. IT IS TIME.
Whatever idea that you feel so passionately about that you have yet to stop making excuses for, it is time. Going into the new year is the perfect time to let those doubts and fears go and make your dreams come true. Nothing is going to happen instantly; it takes time. Move yourself out the way of your own destiny. Create a positive and determined mindset that will allow you to never stop yourself from greatness again.
