"I'm too old to learn"

If you are reading this it is because you were drawn by these powerful words "I am too old to learn." and when I say powerful what I mean is that they have the power to close many great experiences in your near future.

How many times in your life have you had a desire in your heart for a long time to do something? I think everyone at some point in their life has wanted to achieve some kind of goal.

At first this desire fills our souls with that fire that keeps growing stronger and stronger like a "wild fire" and joins with other ideas to come true. Until ... Little by little we start thinking about everything that needs to be done in order to achieve that goal, the skills we need to learn, the time we need to invest, and then a powerful "wild fire" turns into a "deflating balloon" that without enough air will end up in a pile of all our failed dreams in a corner of that room called priorities.

Welcome to the mental process that destroys the possibilities of achieving anything!

STOP!, take a deep breath and see what you can do today!

You are the only person responsable in achieving what you want to achieve! Nothing will happen until you give it the priority that your goal needs.

I remember that the first time I took a brush to paint was after many years of having a desire to paint.

Why did I wait so long?

Because I thought I could spend the $15 dollars on other things, I felt frustration because I did not know where to start, I did not have the knowledge because I had never invested in learning, all that was a cycle that did not let me move towards my desire to one day become a painter.

After years that phrase came to my life "I'm too old to learn" and I almost let it beat me and become a reality in my life.

Give up or start caring.

If you look at the photo I started this blog with, there are 3 women sitting looking at a wall. But I want you to imagine a story with me. There were three very lazy women, always complaining about everything, and they never wanted to get up from their couch in front of a wall. The three women always talked about how they would like to be seeing the beautiful landscape, the mountains, the sunset, the clouds, the birds, etc. and they always complained about how stupid that wall was because they couldn't see beyond it.

None of them were willing to destroy that wall. None of them have the necessary tools to tear it down and none of them are going to do it because neither of them want to invest time or money in that dream. But the three of them talk all the time about how nice it would be to go to the other side, until sadly all three women pass away and they never got to achieve their dream.

This is a sad story because if only one of them would have had the courage and strength to get up and at least touch the wall, they would have realized that the wall was made of paper and together they would have been able to enjoy many sunsets and achieve their dreams.

The same may be happening in your life. There are many things that could be happening in your life if you can only find the courage and strength to get up and start with what you can do today.
