Heartburn

Location

And maybe those pains in your chest aren't heartburn,

but the ache that comes from not living up to your own potential,

watching your opportunities fade away.

Woody Allen once said,

“The only thing standing between greatness and me is

... me.”

Things are only impossible if you imagine them to be so.

Any restraints you feel are made of your own design.

It is up to you to break the chains,

remove the boundaries set by yourself,

your parents,

your friends,

your teachers,

you are who you want to be.

No one has the power to take that away from you.

Take the reins.
