It's Up To You :)

A business associate shared this poem with me today and I would really like to share it with others! I hope you like it as much as I do! I encourage you to inspire others with this poem too. =)

IT'S UP TO YOU
Nobody else is exactly like you.
Nobody else has your smile, your laugh, your voice ...
Nobody else does things exactly the way you do.

Nobody else has your exact dream, your vision, your goal.
Nobody else can see into your head, into your heart or into your soul.

Only you can decide the person you want to be,
the life you want to live,
the things you want to see.
You are the one who must believe,
what you can do, how high you can climb,
the things you can achieve.

Nobody else can be blamed if you lose.
No excuse can be made if you choose ...
To stay in your comfort zone ...
and then to complain and moan.
If you choose to do what you have always done,
if you choose unhappiness instead of laughter and fun.

So make a promise to yourself,
to make sure you achieve your ultimate dream.
Be the winner you really are,
be the captain of your very own team!!!

Aim high, the higher the better,
don't settle for second best - be a goal setter.
Don't let anyone pull you down,
or turn your smile into a frown.

You are the person who can ALWAYS choose,
whether you win or whether you lose.

Decide it today.
Believe it today.
Be it today.
Be a winner.
IT'S UP TO YOU!
