Is It Too Late For Me To Reach My Goals?

What do you want to hear here?

Yes, it is too late? Would that really make you feel better if someone said that?

Would you be able to relax, to truly stop trying or to give up?

Or do you want to hear that it is not too late and that you can accomplish it?

But wouldn’t that mean that you’d have to get a move on now if you wanted to get what you wanted to get?

To be honest, both answers are irrelevant.

The only reason you want to know if it is not too late is so that you feel safer in how you spend your time.

You want someone to give you that certainty so that you can keep going without a care.

The thing is, though, that there is no safety in life.

There are no guarantees, there is nothing that is certain or set in stone.

You can mess up.

It is already way too late to reach certain goals or reach some normal milestones.

Sorry, but you do not have all the options in the world anymore.

But does that really matter?

If that stops you then you were probably never meant to win.
