Influence
Spontaneity requires
time and place
Life does happen
but you set the pace
Opportunities progress
from a simple notion
Even a clock
is set in motion
Often…
We get caught up
in every day
Misplace our self
along the way
Routine and mundane
by design
We are mindwashed
to not cross the line
So…
Accept some risk
and question why
Take a chance
and just try
Inject substance
into time and place
Eyes wide open
to the daily race
Remember…
Decision rights
belong to you
Influence the now
embrace the new
Increase your take
with all that you give
You are a work in progress
as long as you live
Responsibilities
are a heavy load
Possibility
is an open road
A living thing
is compelled to feel
Even the hamster
running the wheel
Often…
Rash decisions
carry a heavy cost
The wrong road
will get you lost
Defining and difficult
by design
We are hesitant
to cross the line
So…
Accept the challenge
and feel alive
Take the wheel
and just drive
The weight of choice
belongs to you
And the getting back
is a journey too
Remember…
Decision rights
belong to you
Influence the now
embrace the new
Increase your take
with all that you give
You are a work in progress
as long as you live
