What Would I Tell A younger Me ??
Saturday, June 6th, 2009That question was posed to me recently. As a mature Gorilla what would I tell a younger dumber version of me ? I guess this requires some self reflection. A search into demons and angels of the past . The Good the Bad and The Ugly if you will, I would tell me to live with a sense of urgency…. I would explain to me that tomorrow is too late…. I would explain to me that that you will be older longer than you will be younger so prepare for greatness and begin to execute your plan yesterday…the Snooze button is not your friend….
When you screw up forgive yourself quicker and make amends for mistakes and keep it moving. I would say get rid of poisonous people at the speed of light as opposed to trying to somehow make someone ok or restore them because they are in your life …dump’ em quick ….I would tell me to work hard now and play harder later ….stop waiting on the song inside you to come out ..start singing it now ..It is up to you to bring it out …if you have a business idea express it instead of repressing it….etc..
WOW lots of things to tell a younger Gorilla (ME) version of myself….. I could go on and on but it would be pointless because as i would have also told myself .. TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE, GET BUSY LIVING OR GET BUSY DYING… NOW !!!! I Guess an even better question would be WHAT WOULD YOU TELL A YOUNGER VERSION OF YOU ????
