Everyone has been asked that age old question at least once in their life… What do you want to be when you grow up? Children always fascinate me with their answers. So unassuming and full of enthusiasm. I want to be a Astronaut… I want to be a Lawyer… I want to be a Doctor. But how many of us are actually perusing the goals that we had at that tender age?

Some may dismiss them as childish “fantacies” or determine it a failed effort before they even try. What happened to your optimism? That discouragement that you give yourself only makes you wind up in a job that makes you dread getting out of bed in the morning wandering “What if”. But it wasn’t always this way. What happened? When we were children we knew what our strengths were and we were proud to show them off. But over time that childish enthusiasm fades and your days begin to blur as time progresses. You are your own worse enemy and the only person that’s holding you back is you!

Let’s not get discouraged people because at the end of the day your dreams, goals, and accomplishments may change, but your purpose stays the same.
