There are all types of people in the world. There are those that are constantly on-the-go; always flitting about, unable to stay in one place (mentally or physically) for any length of time. There are also those that hesitate to make moves; consistently over calculating everything that crosses their path, to the point of near-paralysis.

Then, there are those that watch the activities of everyone else from the sidelines; never initiating any semblance of movement at all.

There's a lot to be said for a life of progression. It can reduce the potential onset of procrastination. It will eliminate the possibility of becoming stagnant. Frankly, without movement, everything would remain exactly where it is now! That would be fine if things were currently in a perfect state. If that is the case for you, you may stop reading here and return to your life of uninterrupted vegetation.

For those of us who are less content with our current set of circumstances, herein lies your immediate call to action:

DON'T JUST STAND ON THE CONVEYOR BELT OF LIFE; CRAWLING ALONG BY DEFAULT!

You have been issued a unique opportunity to forge a difference in the world around you through the use of your talents. Live!

Whether it is in your business dealings or your personal life, allow yourself to make mistakes, corrections, advancements; and then, to repeat the process !

(NOTE: These steps may not necessarily occur in that order) This is a demand for you to take an active role in your personal development; and, to become fully engaged in this journey; which is known as your life!

Why?

Why not!

Provocation is good for the pulse! You are urged to encounter the gifts of your essence; then, to pass this information along to someone else whose life will truly reap the benefit of having made the introduction.

Living is an experience; which is an active state of being. If you are not utilizing your time and efforts as a positive contributor to your environment; then, you need to examine exactly what it is that you are doing!

Remember, provocative people leave imprints of intrigue upon the lives of everyone that they encounter! They are often called upon to do great things; and, they strive to leave a legacy of fulfillment as a testament to the risks that they've taken in their lives.

To be provocative takes initiative!

To possess initiative, you must first make a move...

Very well put. I agree. Nothing will happen if you're a spectator to life. Life demands action and participation. Here's to all the participators. Thanks for writing this.
