Most of us inherit our ambitions long before we ever question them.
- We borrow dreams like hand-me-down clothes:
- The respectable career
- The sensible path
- The version of success our culture hands out like a template
And because the people who gave us the blueprint loved us,
we never stopped to ask if it was ours.
Before you take the next "logical step":
- Write down three pursuits you inherited, absorbed, or obeyed.
- Ask the dangerous question:
- "If no one would be disappointed, would I still want this?"
- The answers will feel rebellious.
- Let them.
Your life is not an heirloom.
It's uncharted territory.
And God did not put you here to maintain someone else's map.
