Take The Initiative.

There is so much to see and so much to do in this world, still more often than not we feel the helplessness of the monotony of our lives. The irony being that we can change that at any given point of our lives. It doesn't always have to be some big gesture, sometimes it's the small things. Things that you encounter in your every day life.
For example two days back I had gone swimming with my brother and my cousin, there was this diving station that was still open and I remember I was so scared to dive off because it had been years since I'd done that. There was this one time when I literally went up and then came back down. But after some time I just felt like a hypocrite: here I was telling my siblings that there was nothing to be scared of..that it was just water or that they were just people, and that if You wanted something then it's You that has to take the initiative.
So towards the end of the evening I did end up diving..of course it wasn't perfect but still what counts is that I did it. 
So I guess my point is that you can turn your life around at any time you like. My turning point wasn't this diving episode but rather the long process that led me to making that decision despite how scared I was.
