What's Your Excuse?!

What’s your excuse? We all have dreams and aspirations, it could be a new business or a promotion. That crush that we just can’t seem to ask out. Even to start living right by eating healthy and exercise. How about learning a new skill or hobby to enrich ourselves.
Have we attained any of these things that we want to accomplish? Congratulations if you said yes. But most probably you are a part of the majority that still have not achieved their goals in life. Like many, we’ve got loads of plans and dreams, but we’ve got even more excuses.
I’m not ready, you say. I’m not equipped or capable of this or that. If I reach a certain goal then I’ll go for it. That along with an entire phonebook (kids, that’s where we find contacts back in the day before google) of excuses of I’m not and when I...
Don’t let your own excuse stop you from attaining your dreams. But, nothing! It does not matter whether I know what you’re going through or not. No one will help you succeed but yourself. If you’re waiting for the right time or the right person to help create an opportunity, then you’ll be disappointingly waiting for quite sometime.
What I’m saying is this: take the initiative to make the first step. You may not succeed right away and it would be scary but you’re one step closer to your dream. When you face obstacles, that’s a good indication that you’re in the right path. If it were easy then it would not be worth having.
Now... What’s your excuse?!
But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, and whatever I command you, you shall speak.” Jeremiah 1:7
