It takes one person to change your life! This can be such a beautiful thing. I watched a movie the other day about a little Elementary school boy from Mexico who wanted to become an astronaut. Remember when you were a kid and the teachers would ask what did you want to be when you grew up?
Many would say, Doctor, Policeman, Firefighter, Lawyer, Veterinarian, or an Astronaut. I am not sure what I said. Hmmm.
Not many really took those kids seriously that said they wanted to be an Astronaut because it was so out of this world. Like literally. Who knows someone that has been in space? I don’t, but I believe that anyone can get there if they believe they can.
According to the space people of these current times about 700 people have been in space so far. Holy cow that’s way more than I thought! This means that it’s possible. People have done it and you can too! That is of course if you would like to pursue that type of career or maybe just an adventure. Space travel is on the horizon.
That little boy’s teacher believed he could do it and gave him the confidence to accomplish it. She didn’t laugh at his outrageous goal. It can only take one person to change your life. Someone who believes in you so much so that you take on that extra boost of faith from them and add it to your own. Magic can happen! It took him 30yrs of blood, sweat, and tears to get into NASA, but he did it!
One person that you look up to could be one to bring you up higher than you ever thought you could be or they could bring you down. We don’t like thinking negatively here at Ridiculously Enjoy Life, but we need to be realistic. Sad things and bad things do happen. After all, if we didn’t have the sadness we wouldn’t recognize the happiness. Makes sense, right?!
We need to learn from those situations as well. It will only serve us in the long run. Information is always good no matter what. Here’s a quote I really like.
Watch your thoughts;
they become words.
Watch your words;
they become actions.
Watch your actions;
they become habits.
Watch your habits;
they become character.
Watch your character;
it becomes your destiny.
-Lao Tzu
This quote to me is very important because it can truly set the stage on how people pave their path in life. If you ever find yourself lost and thinking negative things you can refer to the quote to give you some guidance.
I want to be that person that helps change other people’s lives. My goal is to reach as many people as I can and give them hope. We live in different times and most of us may not have someone cheering them on who is physically right near them. That is crazy to say because there are about 8 Billion people on this planet.
Conclusion
Being a part of the solution and not the problem is one of my biggest goals. Be a part of the solution as well. Do you have someone that looks up to you? Believe in them and show them the way. Help them rise up to their full potential. If we all helped at least one person could you imagine how much better this planet would be?! Then we could move on and explore outer space and help our E.T.s of the Universe out.
