“Because it is only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you will realize your true potential.”-Barack Obama

He says this a lot. Probably because it’s very true. Some people believe in being the big fish in a little pond but you don’t learn much that way. Surrounding yourself with people greater than you are is the best way to test who you are as a person.

“In this world full of diseases/I learned not to bite my tongue or have seizures.”-Joe Budden

Clever wordplay as well as real talk. The biggest mistake kids make in school is when the teacher says “any questions”, there’s always two or three people who have questions to ask but they won’t out of fear for what their classmates might think or how the teacher might react. Those kids usually fail the test.

Even in adulthood people stay in jobs and relationships they don’t like, all because of that fear to speak up. People also miss out on jobs and potential relationships for the very same reason.

Basically say what you have to say everyday because you aren’t guaranteed tomorrow, nor is the person you might want to say it to. Even if it’s something they may not like. Just say it. The only time I’ve ever felt true regret is when I didn’t say something I wanted or needed to say.

That’s why bloggers/musicians/journalists/psychologists got it so good. When done correctly, all of those jobs allow you to speak your mind without censorship. I HAVE ALL FOUR JOBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
