There are No Overnight Wonders

The roller coaster is my life; life is a fast, dizzying game, life is a parachute jump; it’s taking chances, falling over and getting up again; it’s mountaineering; it’s wanting to get to the very top of yourself and to feel angry and dissatisfied when you don’t manage itFrom Eleven Minutes. Paulo Coelho.

Life, indeed, is a roller coaster. It’s complicated and messy. It is determined, in large measure, by the choices you make – and more importantly, why you make them.

What is the dream? Do you have one? What do you hope for? What stories do you believe? What stories do you tell yourself? Are you adding value to the lives of others or frittering away precious time?

Life IS as roller coaster that’s true, but it can be the way you want to make it; if you see the vision, if you don’t let fear, self doubt and false judgment keep you from taking action, if it is good work and you don’t give up.

Sometimes you just have to keep going. There are no overnight wonders.
