Where will the Roads lead to?

The road to mastery is not for the meek.  Is it possible that you have been coasting along while the realms of creativity and success are within you.  Perhaps you are in a trance of distraction that is sucking the greatness from you.  Lets face it, it is easier to be a critic rather than a doer.  The credit always belongs to the man in the arena and not the one who points out from the stands, where a strong man stumbles, or where deeds could have been done better.  The dust and sweat and blood are signs of a fight and especially of effort.  Yes it comes with errors and shortcomings, but one day it will also represent deeds endeavoured enthusiastically, great devotions and spending your life for a worthy cause.  The highway to audacity is not for the faint at heart.  Whether you know the triumph of achievement or the failure of risks, which you are sure are worth it, at least you will be with the daring souls and not merely the cold and timid souls, who neither know victory nor defeat.  It is too easy to tear down those that dream and to condemn adventurers as selfish men, who have only a personal crusade inside them.  But perhaps it may be more reasonable to understand that the route to world class is a messy, chaotic, gorgeous, terrifying, fulfilling, brilliant, confusing ride, not easy, but easy is vastly overrated.  Yes it is wise to be sensible and yes it may be easier to plod along on a straight path with little deviation or risk, but just know that there are men and woman who may just be willing to take a chance and end up at a new destination, which may surpass the standards and the expectations which they had before.  And when they do arrive, it is best not to then look back with green eyes of envy and say I could have, should have, would have, but rather to applaud the strength, resolve and dedication to success.
