Be the perfect protagonist of your story.

Today is a blank paper waiting for a story to be written on. And whether you become the writer of the story or not, the protagonist remains unchanged- it is your story. If I read to you right now, the story of your life in the past week, would you be proud? Would you say, well, I like that protagonist, he has got some balls for chasing his dreams, taking control of his life, making sacrifices, facing the heat, and has decided to walk on the path that is self created - truly admirable.
If I told you the story of your life of the past week, would you be proud of the protagonist or not? Or is the story of someone who's wasting their time on bullshit, is lazying around during every opportunity to work, giving excuses, going into deep inner dialogues convincing himself that I will work after 15 minutes, half an hour, which never happens; has no control over himself, is easily carried away by his desires to be entertained and watches hours of dumb shirty same repetitive videos on YouTube and facebook, opens instagram every seconds he finds himself alone, trying desperately to be cool in front of others, and has no idea what he is doing with his life! Tell me, if you were to watch a movie which one of the two protagonist are you going to admire and respect more?

Anyway, it is going to be the one who is making sacrifices everyday to achieve his goals, you already love to watch those kind of movies. What do you think your life is? How is it different? All those motivational films you watch to inspire yourself, how is your own life not inspiring you in the first place? Because you have an escape. Everything that hurts comes, that botheration comes, the moment that will open your eyes to the necessary truth comes, what you do is, you open your phone and distract yourself. You are already in a motivational movie called the story of your life. You have all the challenges, characters that are working against you, villains that take pleasure in seeing you not succeed, competition that is ruthless, everyday choices that demand sacrifices, distractions that will not care about you until you die, you already have the odds against you.

What are you doing to your story? Do you want to die nameless, faceless, inconsequential, as a nondescript, nobody, nothing? Or do you want your name to send a ripple in the chaos every time it is said? I am sure you fancy being the one that controls. The mastermind, the architect. Well, charity begins at home.
You are the architect of your own life. You're not going to control anything if you can't even control one person that is you. With all that power you claim to have, take control of the story of your life for the next week starting today. I challenge you, write a story that fills your heart with pride, not disgust. For the next seven days become the writer of your life, which means, every action must come from a conscious decision, excuse you're consciously writing your life towards betterment, you're the drill sergeant of your mind. This is a challenge; days, become the writer of your life.

Write a chapter like the movies you take inspiration from, pursuit of happyness, right? You're no different. You're at the bottom too. 7 days, work like him, work for you, work for your dreams and goals. Which character, real life personality you take inspiration from, emulate their work ethic for one week only. This challenge is a mindset which I want you to adopt. So please accept it. Go on and take full control of your life for seven days, and I know you will, because I believe in you. You will conquer the battles ahead of you, because I know and you must never forget, you are awesome.
