Power of Silence

Hush
Your light will not always seem as bright
In another's world
Hush
Let the shadows be your friend
Let your success 
Become your own celebration

The power of silence. Silence is loud in its own right, it leaves a remarkable statement of beautiful mystery. You've heard it now and again, don't share your dreams with anyone or everyone. This is true.

I believe that at the age we are, we're making steps and progressing. Some of us will be great, some of us shall remain in the ordinary. Either way it doesn't stop us from wanting the best for ourselves. However as things pick up and we gain momentum, everything seems to go alright. We get excited. We want to share it all with anyone and everyone who will listen. Oh yes, people will be there to hear how well you're doing, but not everyone will care as much. Especially where you're doing a lot better than they are. The thing is, as we share every detail of achievement or road to success, I feel that we indirectly become accountable to those we preach to. If things go south, then what?

Now I'm not saying we should seal our mouths with duct tape and become entirely unreachable. It's just that major steps in life, major plans are best reserved for your own knowledge, not for everyone. It is best you know how you're doing your own things because, truthfully speaking, not everyone will be happy with your progress. And well we will never know the extent they will go to bring you down.

Know your circles. As you get to the top you will have fewer associates, those on the same race track as you are. Yes, it will feel good sharing each and every stage of your power plan with anyone who will listen but it's more powerful to stay put and allow yourself to reach heights you want to be at, without being answerable to anyone.

Be still.
