Today I realized something. And as naive as it may sound, I realized that i'd rather be a guy who makes himself look life a fool while trying, than the guy who stays "safely" behind the "I'd rather wait for the best chance possible", and therefore, never acts!
As of today, I have a newway to look at life! I will no longer linger in the shadow and wait for a better chance, I will no longer wait for the right time. I'll simply make the right time, I'll create the better chance! I'ts do or die. (pardon me the expression).
Because (and this is what I realized), if you keep on waiting for the right time, you will just be making excuses NOT to do it. And in the end, when you don't do it, you'll just say ..."nah, it wasn't important, it would't have worked , it would just make me unhappy when I failed" . I'm tired of this. What if it was your chance of a lifetime? What if that girl (for whom you are waiting for the right time , and keep on waiting untill she just finds another guy) is actualy your soulmate?
Wouldn't you rather give it a try? Ask yourself this, what's the worst thing that can happen?
The worst thing that can happen is: you do make yourself look like a fool , and you failed at something you wanted to do. (ask a girl out , get that job enterview, make peace with that friend, etc). So yes, you MAY look life a fool. You MAY be unhappy but, and I speak for myself, I think i can take a little humilliation. it doesn't kill me , therefore it makes me stronger! And, if you dont fail, the reward will be simply awesome. You tried. You succeded. Is there anything better?
So, I think I'll start doing stuff, instead of just waiting.
This is what I learned today.
Cya later.

Concordo plenamente com o que dizes aqui. Acho que toda a gente, em determinada altura, necessita de aprender isso por si próprio, quanto mais não seja quando se deparar com a situação mesmo ali à sua frente e sentir na pele algumas (mesmo que pequenas) consequências.
ResponderEliminarPor mais que as outras pessoas nos tentem abrir os olhos e incentivar a dar um passo em frente, o facto de pensarmos vezes demais naquilo que podemos perder se decidirmos dar uma chance à nossa vontade, faz-nos bloquear. Pensar demais antes de agir passa então a ser o nosso maior problema.
Não quero com isto dizer que devemos agir absolutamente sem pensar. Simplesmente devemos dar ligeiras chances à nossa vontade.
Como dizes aí, se tivermos sucesso, a recompensa é simplesmente fantástica.
Beijinho, Zé :)
there's no right time.. the right time is whenever you feel it is... ;)
ResponderEliminarlive fully your life, as you only live it once. don't throw away unique oportunities and smile at every failure, it could be worse, and still you learned something from it. ;)
