I saw this post on LinkedIn. It speaks to entrepreneurship but I think it applies to life in general.
Here are some of my favorite quotes:
“The transformation from idea to successful start-up is much like the metamorphosis of a caterpillar to a butterfly. Passion and a burning desire to live your dream fuel your mind and spirit. The caterpillar crawls from its shell, struggles to survive in an unkind and an unforgiving nature, and, in the end, transforms to beautiful butterfly, ready to explore its new world.”
“Plan now. Maximize your caterpillar stage. This phase cannot endure. Do not remain a caterpillar. Infuse your dream with determination, purpose, confidence. Develop new. Find new. Even start new.”
“This little guy goes wherever he wants, using muscles he never knew he had. He crawls up and down, over and under, around and about.”
In summary, live your dream with passion and a burning desire. Plan now. Don’t wait to be a butterfly to act but don’t remain a caterpillar forever, and go wherever you want using all you have available to you (even those things you don’t even know you have!)
