Both Ends of the Stick

Well it is the day after the election and I would like to begin this blog by thanking God there are far more good people on this earth than evil and the voice of the good put President Barack Obama back in office for four more years!!! Thank you Voters!!! Job well done!!

There is a saying sleep when you are dead; this phrase is commonly used by people that are always on the grind. To stop and sleep will interrupt their work flow especially if they are on the path to greatness or major success. See money does not discriminate, any of us could make it and plenty of it if we decided that we would not stop working for it. Unfortunately some people get so caught up in the money that they stop making it and instead let it make them. Other's burn the candle stick from both ends for so long that they get caught off guard when all goes dark. They don't realize what they have sacrificed until they have lost their family or friends, until the children resent them for never making it to the school play or missing too many birthday parties. They look up one day and the person in the mirror is a complete stranger because they never took a break long enough to enjoy the fruits of their labor. While I truly believe that we all could lead above average lives if that were our desire. I also believe that being rich does not have to come at the price of losing it all. Those stakes seem far too high in comparison, so while you are out on your grind don't forget those that support your hustle. Make time to enjoy the glow before the candle burns out.
