Poem #5(?) || I Dare You ||

      || I Dare You ||

I dare you to stop making excuses
I dare you to deal with your problems
stop blaming other people for YOUR failures
blaming takes the power away from you
The power to change
I dare you to control of your own fate
and not blame it on your gender, religion or race.

I dare you to stop being scared
stop being scared of what might happen if you give it your all
stop being scared to fail.
For that thought alone prevents you from giving 100%

I dare you to not hold anything back
fail, lose, but get right back UP
The joy of success is not in never failing
but in rising EVERYTIME you fail
get back up one more time than you fall down
not because it's easy, because as sure as hell is not,
but because YOU owe it to YOURself

I dare you to work HARD
not just today but everyday of every year
because it's better to be ready and not have an opportunity
than to have an opportunity and not be ready.

And I dare you to start today
What are you waiting for...?

 

Yours truly,

~ Amina
