You had real reasons.
The circumstances were genuine.
The disadvantages were real.
The hand you were dealt was not fair.
And for a season, that was the honest truth.
But seasons change.
And if you're still using last season's circumstances
to excuse this season's inaction,
you're no longer honest.
You're stuck.
At some point, the circumstances stop being the reason
and become the excuse.
This week, take one responsibility that is now available to you.
Not the one you wish you had.
The one that is actually in front of you.
You cannot change where you started.
But you can choose what you do with where you are.
And that choice is yours alone.
