There's no one to talk with but my pen and paper...
I guess this calls for a night of contemplation...
So while enjoying a cup of my favorite brewed Yuban Columbian coffee, I browsed through my playlist and selected some Bossa Nova songs. Soon enough, I found myself jotting down my thoughts.
Scribble scribble... scribble scribble... pouring my insights through the ink of my pen... filling the page with my sentiments... I scribbled the night away.
Et voila! A compilation of my insights...
on taking risks...
on moving on...
... and the failure of some to do so.
--------------------------------------
"To think twice before making a single step is wisdom. However, to think but not move at all is foolishness. Why waste your efforts brainstorming on a plan that would never be executed in the first place?"
"It's true that we need to be cautious in taking risks, but fear shouldn't impede us from doing so. Failure to take risks is a risk itself. and more often than not, this leads to another failure: failure to make a move."
"You'll never accomplish anything if you keep on ending what hasn't even begun."
"Some people remain trapped in the dark because they keep on putting off the spark... with that being done, how are they going to see the light?"
"Pessimists are trapped in their past... Optimists may become too eager about the future... can somebody remind these people that more than anything else, what they should deal about is the present?"
"How will you know what will happen in the future if you're still preoccupied thinking about what happened in the past?"
"If you take a risk but fail in the end... just move on."
