Just do it

pretty much sums up all that we need in life. excerpt of words by alex the girl, thanks to fashion nation.

"Live. Don’t be the same as yesterday. Don’t hide. Don’t copy others or live their ideas or life. Don’t fear doing your thing. Don’t fear doing. Instead of reading a decorating magazine, paint that room. Instead of thinking of baking, do up a cake. Run, walk, bike.

Do. Do some more. Think about politics, the environment, healthcare, another country and then do something. Never stop at thinking.

Dream big, work harder. Have lots of fun, lift a finger, do something for someone else. Cheer your friends on. Cheer yourself up. Celebrate as much as possible. It’s OK to want more and do more but be present with where you are or who you are with. Don’t rush the situation - even if it’s bad. Move on when you can. Don’t settle. Try everything you can and get over everything holding you back.

Go outside. Go outside yourself. Make a difference, make some change. Don’t complain about someone unless you’re talking to that someone. Don’t complain about a situation you’re not willing to make better. They don’t have it better and you don’t have it worse. Don’t make excuses. You’ll never see possibility if you do.

Hope. Hope more. Give someone else hope. Get healthy and contribute to a healthy environment. Think about everything you do, you buy, you say. Rest is useful, giving up is not.

Follow through. Don’t let others’ down. Don’t let yourself down. You are better than your circumstances. Make magic happen don’t wish for it. Teach by example how to live well, how to be treated, how to be kind, how to be alive.

Do. Take action on your life. Make the change. No more sulking, waiting, thinking, reading, talking about. It’s time. You’re ready."
