The old west. Settlers from the east traveled through rivers and over mountains to create new homes and new lives in the west. I imagine these people, these settlers, were pretty tough. They were pioneers, trailblazers and adventurers. They were strong and brave and resilient in the face of danger and death. Or that's how I imagine them anyway...They could've been wimpy wallflowers for all I know, I wasn't there.
But for the sake of my point, I'm going to maintain my original idea that these settlers would wrestle four wild bears each before coffee JUST to wake themselves up in the morning. Pretty tough these people...
Certainly a different mental picture than the people who just settle. You know these people...
They're blah...
They're apathetic...
They had a good idea once! And they coulda made it big! But they didn't...
They're more comfortable grasping the remote than grasping a new concept...
They're action-less, direction-less, unmotivated and give up before the first wagon ever starts moving...
I recommend instead being a settler!
- How about being Brave?
- Response-able?
- Courageous?
- Unwilling to cave?
- Motivated?
- and just plain 'ol awesome? How about being awesome for a change?!
Get up tomorrow morning and go look for some wild bears - it'll do you some good.
