Stay hungry stay foolish

I dont know if you stumble upon a similar situation so often, but there have been countless days in my life when I've felt guilty and worthless for not doing 'WHAT IM MEANT TO DO'.
The most ironic thing that I have observed however and am stunned by is the story of 3 great, very successful men. I don't know their biographies very well but there is one common thread that binds them together which stirs my thoughts to amazement.
Im talking about Baz Luhrmann, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates.

And they share a strikingly stark truth : At 20, They didnt know what they wanted to do with their lives.
They chose to follow their intuition, which was itself a very dark, unexplored hallway then.

They share another staggering fact : They have been at the very top of what they finally chose to do and they've emerged to be the most victorious and powerful men in their respective fields.

I am in complete awe of the irony here. The most successful people in the world never planned for success. They simply followed their hearts. They stand out now from amongst us all because they dared to take that plunge. They've all set an example for the world and they speak of their lives so inspiringly.We listen in awe, but the real question is does any one of us actually follow this simple rule to happiness?
I am a shrewd realist and I refuse to allow myself to believe that their lives could somehow be recreated somewhere, and another successful man would wake up to a similar story.

But I'm inspired enough by their stories to idolize them.
Their examples are reason enough for me to wake up every day, look in the mirror and have faith in myself.
Faith that, I can reach there too.
I can worry myself to death.
I can shatter my self-belief.
I can feel worthless
And I can be completely clueless about my life.
BUT, if I follow my heart and do that which makes me truly truly happy...
I CAN REACH THERE TOO.
I CAN!




Don't be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
Dont let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice.

and most important

Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition...
They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
Everything else....is secondary.

- Steve Jobs.


Don't worry about the future.

- Baz Luhrmann
