Hello, dear friends! The title of today’s blog post is a question, and I am willing to bet that as soon as you read it, your mind raced with many ideas as to why this phenomenon occurs. A lot of you are thinking about fear. And you would be right. Fear is a powerful sedative for a seeking mind. It obscures your thought and tramples on your willingness to do what must be done. We can safely assume that many dreamers have forsaken their pursuit out of fear and dread. But that is not what I am going to talk about today. ![image2.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmabJMNCwaPNnN1tU61adMphhyu5t7yY6FfDLRSy4dr6XY/image2.jpg) img src

I will make my point by reviewing a conversation that I had with one of my friends many years ago. She wanted to get into journalism and work her way up to becoming a senior editor for a magazine or newspaper. ‘It is a wonderful dream,’ I told her. ‘But it is going to be a long and difficult road.’ She pondered on my point for a moment. ‘I understand. Nothing is ever easy. I am willing to go through the pain if it means that I will reach my goal.’ Months and months went by and nothing of the sort you would expect happened. You might have thought that she would become some sort of journalist or writer in the many months that followed. Some of you think that she must have at least taken some steps. But no, nothing of the sort happened! ![image4.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmf47HJU539qep4asZmiKku2nYuSjMYzeXaD1D8LbYxvjr/image4.jpg) img src

‘I don’t understand why you are still bartending in that place.’ I told her one day. ‘I really want to start working for a publication or magazine, but I don’t have much experience,’ She said, with a hint of guilt in her voice. ‘I need to start writing on a regular basis, but I don’t know what about!’ ‘Just write about anything you like. Where were you planning to write anyway?’ I asked her. Silence followed the end of that conversation, and I thought a long while about the thing that she had said to me. I am never the sort of person to judge someone, but her lack of trying was something that I thought about for a long time, because I knew that she wasn’t a lazy person. ![image1.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdr8zq3Fg1mGPheLUcusVzFatFgaPJkYTCm3sFSZZKxBL/image1.jpg) img src

My friend didn’t know what to write about, but that was never so much of a good excuse to ease my mind into sympathy and support. I knew better than that. No one ever showed me the way. I found my own way. I don’t necessarily believe that everyone should work out the way of life on their own. It is true; some people need help and tutoring. But that can also be a problematic mindset, because it gives way to unwillingness. Why did she not start writing and learning about the craft in the many months that followed our conversation? She said that she didn’t know where to start. But if you ask me, it was never a question of knowledge. It was just a matter of unwillingness. The idea that you may want something, but not enough to put yourself through the trouble of achieving it. ![image3.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZX8nNz74mbTmteM7w3vvk2FB5xgZ24c9XX1JLzbDTrMc/image3.jpg) img src

Some people never start doing the things they want, but that is not necessarily because they are afraid or simply lazy. They won’t start because they are not willing to do what they have to do. Starting something without knowledge or a straight path is a wearisome struggle, but that CANNOT stop a person who truly wants to gain that thing. It is just a matter of priority. Think about your own priorities. What are the things that you have always wanted to started, but simply found yourself unwilling to do so? A BIG HUG!!! @chbartist IMPORTANT!
