It’s not always easy<\/h1>\n

Everyday it seems as if we have people telling us to do more, sleep less, and work harder.<\/p>\n

Most of us keep running because that’s what we’ve been told to do. We don’t always think about what we are doing or even why we may be doing it in the first place. If we take the time to stop, however, we may begin to realize that we have been\u00a0reading off of\u00a0someone else’s script.<\/p>\n

Trust your story<\/h2>\n

It takes courage to strike out on your own.<\/p>\n

To trust yourself enough that you are willing to break away and follow your own path. This is not always easy to do\u00a0because there are so many people out there who have their own set of plans for you.<\/p>\n

At some point, however, you have to be willing to write your own script.<\/p>\n

To trust yourself enough to leave the safety and security of everyone else’s plans behind. Maybe they really do have your best interest at heart, or\u00a0maybe they don’t. In the end it doesn’t really matter because it’s up to you become the author of your own life.<\/p>\n

You must find your own path and then find the courage to live out your story.<\/p>\n

You’re the only one who can.<\/p>\n

Trust dreams. Trust your heart, and trust your story.<\/p>\nNeil Gaiman<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
