I am the problem. I know what to correct thing is. I know what needs to be said. But yet, I fail to say what needs to said. Fear of reprisal. Fear of confrontation. Fear of being the out cast. All of which are not reasons enough to keep quite. Sometimes things need to be stated. The truth occasionally is rough. And if is you find anger in my words, then a look within should reveal you are also part of the problem.
Why do we, collectively, know the correct thing to do, yet avoid to do it. Idle hands create idle conditions. We need to decide everyday the choice we will make, the paths we want to follow. Today I have chose mine. I no longer will be remain quite when something needs to be stated. Going forward I will need to prefect my tact, but it will not hinder what needs to be said.
My motivation runs deep. I want to succeed. Progress in all aspects of life is progress. But progress in one area is still progress. I want to be better today than yesterday and if you am not assisting me in being better, you’ll be removed. At the top it is lonely and for good reason, those around you don’t have what it takes to get to the top.
This past March I declared it the ‘Year of Matt’and for good reason. I’ve been putting my goals to the side to assist where I could, but I’m over it. This is the YEAR OF MATT and I will do me. My goals are important to me. Goals which I have been steadily working towards. If you can’t contribute to my goals or make me a better person, I’m done. Your pettiness is a cancer. Your inability to cope with the slightest ill, fails to assist. You are the problem. And I for one am over your issues.
Make me better. I’ll make you better. Together we become better.
