Im Focused Man

Demand it.
Take it if you must.
Steal it if it is necessary.
Buy it if you can afford it.
Look for it if it must be found.
Fight for it come blows or bloody knuckles.
Push for it…
Topple the walls that hold it with your might
Work for it. Let it be your wage.
Cry for it if it will float closer on your tears.
Barter, trade all if prudent.
Wish for it if you believe wishes come true.
Hustle for it where haste does not make waste.
Scream for it until your lungs bleed then use the joy of having it to repair the wound.
Trick your way to it if you are clever.
Beg your way to it if you are not.
Flex what you have if you have enough to intimidate its possessor.
Fake what you have if you do not.
Lie the cruelest lie if your lies will allow you to have it
Talk your way to it until you have uttered this worlds every word
Kill for it if murder is worth its prize
Go for it, even when the going gets tough.
Search. Look. Gaze upon horizons until you can rest your eyes on the prize.
Walk to the corners of the world, or else run until you catch it.
Get it. Find gods speed and harness it.
Whatever you desire is attainable.
Make IT yours.


I wrote this to myself years ago and it helped me blaze my way through college. Its time to get back on IT.
For now, my its are:
  • The continual betterment of everything pertaining to my son
  • My law degree
  • $
  • Finding forgiveness in my heart
  • Peace of mind


What's your IT?
