It’s easy to play life on the back foot
Always playing defense.
Always waiting
Always passive
Always reactive.
Waiting for circumstance, or someone or something to make a decision for you.
But sometimes the best defense, is offense.
In getting on the front foot
In making the first move and in leading the dance.
Setting the pace instead of waiting around for someone to set it for you.
To lead, instead of follow
To take the initiative
To stay ahead of the game and let others do the catching up.
Sometimes it’s best to take it to life, instead of allowing life to take it to you.
Because if you’re sitting around waiting for something to happen
For someone to come in and save you,
It’s about time you realize, that you are that someone.
So go and get at it.
