Just go all the way...

in #poem6 years ago (edited)

Are you currently making sacrifices to reach your goal? Not just any goal, but a goal that will demand you to reach great heights?

Charles Bukowski, a legendary author explains what type of sacrifices you may need to take to reach your goal. It could be a harsh process, but it will get you to where you want to be.

Are you willing to go to jail or freeze in the park for your dreams? What did you have to sacrafice to get to where you are currently?

Lets discuss below after you read the poem below!

"If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is."

Charles Bukowski,
