6. How to Be Your Own Hero
By Saleem Rana
6.1 “What do you want to be?”

This is a deep question that we often ignore.
We are so busy caught up in making a living that we forget we have
the power to design a life. We forget the possibility that at any
moment we can turn everything around and become an outrageous
success in life.
Most people opt for the default choice of mediocrity.
Yet this is not a pleasant choice. Nor
does it provide more approval, control
or safety than risking the idea of
following your dreams. When you fail to
aspire to be anything, your life rings
hollow with the pain of feeling
unfulfilled.
The main obstacle people encounter in
following this line of thought is how to
set it up.
While the dreaming and the intending
can come to you with a little bit of effort
to overcome your resistance, the challenge is in how to start.
