You Don't Have To

When faced with an opportunity, remember this, you don’t have to.

No one can make you. It's not punishment. It's an opportunity! It's a chance to do something you otherwise would never be able to do. It's a chance to enrich your life, to move ahead.

But it's your choice.

Don’t do it like a belligerent employee, putting in minimum effort, trying to just by and going through the motions. Give it everything you’ve got! You are doing this for yourself.

You chose to do this, no one made you, you are doing it because you want to. This is the situation that you’ve been wanting, to get all the benefit from your hard work and not just help someone else get ahead.

So do it with all your energy, and a smile on your face— because this time it's for you.
