Hello there fellow penguins! *cough* /qc /outfit springmaniac Ugh, much better. Anyways, today I would like to create a wisdom post. I have been thinking, and a lot of people don't think about this, but their goals are as far as they imagine them to be.

What do you mean by this Maniac? -random person

Well, I mean that some people say that they will never achieve their goals, and give up. By doing this, you are letting all your goals and ambitions free telling everyone that you gave up. I'm not just talking about ranks, but people you want to meet, things you want to do, posts you want to make, you name it. If you don't reach the distance, then you won't finish your goal.

Let me give you an example. Someone is trying for a rank, and its been a while since they first started to try and obtain it. They give up, saying, "Ugh, that random person got it before me. I'll never earn it v.v" You gave up, setting that dream aside. Although you may have thought yourself good for something or someone right away, patience is the key. No one ever walked up Mount Everest in a day. (Technically they have, but its a metaphor) They suffered ups and downs, cold and snow, loneliness and pain, but they reach their goal anyways. They are just like you; they didn't lay in the snow waiting to die, they kept going and finished what they started.

This can relate to us because sometimes life is hard. Sometimes we feel like the goals aren't worth the pain, but the pain gives the journey a life. Regret gives the journey life. If we had a flat road, we'd be the car to go straight through it. We could never be perfect, and our journey isn't either. And if you don't finish your journey, then your goal will be ever so far.

Your goals are only as far as you think. If someone teases or makes fun of them, ignore it. Some of the greatest inventors had people telling them, "This will never work!" And yet it did. All our goals are different, and we will all take different paths to get to them. Some may be short flat roads; while others are long and bumpy roads. The way you respond to the road will make a difference. So don't give up on that goal. There is always hope, but it always gets worse before it gets better. Thank you.

Please understand that this is not for everyone; everyone lives in different circumstances, and this could provide hope for others.
