Building Blocks

Time is a building block.

Every second is like a Lego piece, able to be used to build something amazing.

You get to choose where to place them.

Some people build amazing minds,

Some amazing bodies,

Skills, relationships, systems, companies,

Even empires.

You can build anything with enough time.

But time is limited and most people on this planet create nothing of any relevance.

Like a toddler given a mountain of Legos, most people aren't building ANYTHING at all,

Just making a mess.

Do you understand that some men on this earth have been training since the day they were born

DECADES AND DECADES of building their bodies in an attempt to claim the title of most capable specimen on earth.

Every block of time used with a purpose, never wasted.

Think of all of the blocks you've wasted,

How many of them are scattered around in broken relationships, useless experiences and pointless endeavors

Like a toddler, you've been building with no plan, no structure and no vision.

Building hundreds if not thousands of small half-built little structures that are indistinguishable from rubble.

I point this out to you, so you can stop wasting your God-given time on this planet.

So you can stop disappointing God himself.

He's given every one of his creations so many blocks to play with.

So much time to be able to CREATE something beautiful.

So much time to be able to make him proud.

Stop wasting your life.
