Posted in Entrepreneurial Complacency is Your Worst Enemy – A Poem Posted on December 11, 2015May 3, 2020 by Usama A. It had been one of those days for years now, I had lived the same day over and over again now. Decided to flex muscles & fly off to a “magical” realm of my own then, Just breathed, closed my eyes & took a leap of faith then. Wondered if it all mattered now, Did the risk pay off now? Insides continue to shout: “What the hell, Try making it last a while now”! People said “Youse fool!” And called me naive then, Stupid enough to follow his heart then, What they didn’t realize was; my biggest fear was mediocrity then A voice always spoke to me from within, Was too caught up in being a robot from within. Breaking free from one’s own chains isn’t so simple sire! It takes a toll on you, but trance, shall help you step out, surefire. Life’s a burn-out session unless a revolt begins from within, Bumpy & spiraling outta’ control is how one should be livin’ Discerned the fact long before the Alchemist was written. Complacency is your worst enemy, Keep tabs on it every now & then.

This is a great poem; it depicts the struggle we all face between conformity (and mediocrity) and listening to our inner voice that urges us to dream bigger 🙂 LikeLiked by 1 person Reply
