The world around me is moving so fast. Mobile devices are making virtually all information instantly available at the touch of a button. An idea released into the world can reach the masses in seconds.
Unfortunately this makes it increasingly harder to have an original idea, one that isn’t pounced upon and driven to completion by someone with more motivation and more means. Maybe they happened to hear you talking about it in line at the movies, or maybe you mentioned something brilliant on a facebook wall or a twitter response. In the internet age, you can never be so sure who is and isn’t listening.
It makes me wonder. To be driven, to be special, to be the next big thing, it isn’t easy. In the past I have lost steam on ideas that I knew were great. I lacked the confidence to see a project through to completion. I am hoping that soon I will turn a corner, that I can overcome this evil cycle of failure.
All it takes is one success to breed others. Even if it is a mild one. I am hoping and praying that my one success happens soon. I hope the support system I have for this is strong and won’t allow me to sit down and watch another idea get picked up by someone with more motivation. I need this and I want this, I hope I wake up soon and remember just what it would mean to put my heart into something that matters.
I can’t go on coasting, I need to be passionate about things I do day in and day out. I want to care, I want to wake up at 3am and NEED to work. Where and when will this happen to me? Soon I hope. Soon indeed.
