“If Passion Drives You, Let Reason Hold The Reins!”

(Benjamin Franklin)

My dad used to tell me “Everything in moderation.”

Benjamin Franklin believed that passion is a desirable trait.

But, it must be applied only in pursuit of a reasonable objective.

I would add one more qualifier, OBTAINABLE.

Pursuit of the unobtainable is a waste of time and effort.

Do you have any goals for your life?

If you make a list, scratch out the ones that are unreasonable.

And zero in on the ones whose result would be “A life worth living!”

If not today, when?
