art, beginnings, fear, feelings, inertia, life, motivation, personal, poetry, start anew

The plan has been made
everything has been thought of
all scenarios well played
almost nothing to be afraid of

Yet the actions have been delayed
the starting point is taking too long
it’s not a matter of being afraid
sense of commitment is not that strong

The principle is to start and fail fast
the lessons learned will get you there
the failure will be a thing of the past
in addition to the above you have to dare

You ‘ve failed to move on
for years and years now
and you are still holding on
still trying to make it somehow

Have you considered changing course?
seems like you are heading wrong
of all your beliefs, do’s and don’ts
continuous adaptation should be on top

Don’t force yourself not to let go
changing plans doesn’t mean giving up
you need to be adaptable you know
if moving on keeps failing try moving up

As you‘re getting older
It gets harder and harder
To make changes
In your life

You have to go through them
As soon as you can
Before you are forced to
Make changes
Again

You need to be adaptable
Pursue stability through change
Because change is stability
Understand the sense of this
Change happens
Always

Someday you‘ll enjoy this
Pursuing change
Someday you’ll get tired of this
Going through changes
But don’t stay put
Move On
Change

The plan is simple
You need to change
You‘ve been the same for too long
And soon you won’t recognize it anymore

The time is right
You need to change
Now is the time to do it don’t hesitate
You don’t realize but do so before it’s too late

The mind is numb
You need to change
Move on, don’t stop and don’t look back
You know you can be better than that

The body is numb
Because you stopped
The mind needs to take over
You need to change
