To make things happen, focus

There are a gazillion things one may want to do, maybe as an escape, maybe as a distraction, maybe just wishful thinking, just to avoid the one thing that they should do.

The more substantial the thing you want to do, the more focus it will require. Don’t get distracted; to do something big you need to put your head down and work. Your goal must become the center of your life; it must consume you.

Either knowingly or unknowingly, people who have done something worthy in their life have put their focus on the goal. Maybe they thought of it as passion or obsession or challenge, but they kept their focus.

Is it worth doing?

When you pick something up, ask yourself, is it worth doing? Just a question in the void can clear a lot of things in you.

Maybe you will fail, maybe you will succeed, but if it’s worth doing, it should be done. It should be done for yourself. It’s important to pick some goals which are bigger than you; that is how you grow.
