#DYOR - Be a Builder And Not Just a Follower | Do Your Own Rock'n'Roll

in #dyor6 years ago (edited)

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style. - Maya Angelou

Thriving on your own requires some extraordinary efforts, but life's gonna return the favor.

If you only follow others on their mission, you'll never really self-develop. Then you'll just be an imitation of someone you don't even know.

Your success is gonna be theirs, and their mistakes are gonna be yours.

Following is the easy way, but building is the rewarding one.

It's no walk in the park to have an opinion and to represent it determinedly.

Sometimes we look back and recognize that we were wrong at an earlier stage - that we chose the wrong path - and now we find ourselves in a blind alley. Oh, why even bother?

Well that's life, honey!

If you never built a house of cards and saw it collapse in front of your eyes, you never truly lived.

They call us dreamers, even though we're the ones that never sleep.

Be a dreamer, a builder, a game changer. Be the one that creates a trend and not the one who just blindly follows a hype created by someone else.

Right on sm 😎👍

Three chords, a red guitar and the truth! 🤟🤩

Very well said :-)

Following never got me anywhere. Carving one's own path is often a path to failure. Sometimes if we are lucky, we build off these failures to create new successes. Have a great day surfer marley :)

I'd like to be more positive and say that carving one's own path is more adventurous and may eventually lead into a blind alley. Yet, you can't grow if you never fall.

Have a nice day, too!

It's the essence of success - doing your own thing and being fully dedicated!

I agree. Besides a good timing these are the keys to success.
