What happens if I keep it in my pocket?

What won't come out?

What could have existed that now won't?

See, just because you don't see something slipping away, that doesn't mean that it isn't.

And the immediate, the world in front of you, unfortunately, won't remind you of that.

That's a bell you have to ring yourself.

You have to peel back the, what am I doing, and unveil the, what could I be doing?

What could I be creating?

What could reality look like?

Maybe you think about it, and you find that you're right where you want to be.

And that's great.

Maybe you realize you've accepted a tolerable existence at the expense of an ideal existence.

In which case, I also have great news.

You can change that, and you can change it now.

We have to understand that you don't only have what's in front of you.

You also possess a reality unseen and undiscovered.

So don't let the former cover up or diminish the latter.

Don't lose the possibility of tomorrow with the distractions of today.

Don't forget the cost of inaction with regard to those things that truly matter.

I was at my lowest, running through the desert when my friend and trainer noticed the look on my face.
