A Journey, a Project, and Milestones

We had an eventful 2012 that made us celebrate lots, nervous at times, perhaps sad once in a while, or made us think and change a couple of things. With all that experience and thoughtfulness we embark further, crossing this milestone of New Year, welcoming 2013 with absolute faith that it will take us through enlivening experiences leading us to becoming a person that is one (many)-notch(es) better.

While most start the journey with big dreams, high hopes, and great goals, very few end up realising them. Those who keep fuelling the dreams with passion, hope with determination, and actions with courage make the universe work for them, and turn their dreams into a reality. I received an awesome piece of writing that does just the right job of fuelling that fire – here I share that poem with you, and wish your dreams become a reality. Read on...

THE PROJECT
By Robin Sharma
Within each of us lies The Project.
An idea longing to be nourished, cherished, launched and completed.
Writing a novel. Starting an enterprise. Raising a family. Freeing a nation.

Our deepest desire is to do The Project. To express our vision. To carefully and patiently watch it unfold. To present it to those who will benefit by it. And to experience the pride of the job beautifully done.
Yet, a million distractions battle for our attention. And one hundred doubts fill our hearts. And so slowly and subtly, we recite the excuses that construct our reality. And we shelve The Project. Postponing it for a better day.

But postponing The Project is life’s greatest lie.
Picasso and Basquiat, Einstein and Edison, Jobs and Jay-Z didn’t wait for an ideal day to do their dream. They started. When it was hard. Though they had little. While they were alone.

So many of the world’s troubles are symptoms of The Project undone.
Pain is the result of potential denied. And when you avoid The Project, you dishonour your gifts. Your Talents. Your Genius.

A portion of you goes numb. Silent. Quiet. Scared.
The moment you start The Project, everything shifts. Purpose, focus, passion and peace returns to your life. Eyes sparkle. Energy explodes. Inspiration flows. And your days become supported by coincidence, power and peak possibility.

This very day, the first of a fresh year–presents your greatest opportunity. To be a lion not a sheep. To walk with giants versus among the meek. To celebrate your best instead of succumbing to the worst. To lift others up versus tear others down. To pour creativity, mastery, courage and light into a world aching for marks of heroism.
So please, step up. Release all chains. Dispute all doubts. Start The Project. Do the dream. And change the world.
You are responsible for no less.

Happy 2013!
Going through a similar process myself, the incubation of my start-up company is one such dream that became a reality that is beginning to take shape and raring to Go, and Grow. With huge faith, great determination, and bit of support it will learn to run!
