Have you ever wondered what happens in the mind of a child trying to reach for something higher ?

I have personally never seen a child look at their toy and go : “whatever I’ll get another one”.

They know it’s theirs, so they expect to get it.

They might ask for help by whining in order to make you understand how important that toy is to them, unless they have found a way to get it themselves.

Think about it quickly : have you ever seen them frightenned by the height or the fact that it’s “too high” for them ?

They might complain. They just don’t quit.

This to show you that thinking like a baby when it comes to get what you want might be the only thing you want to learn today.

I often talk about making plans. Look at us now.

(Yes this was a clear reference to the pandemic. I won’t talk about it though, I believe that my fellow friends and writers are on it already.)

2020 came to show us that the only thing you own is the present. The now. The you reading what I am writing right now.

I want you to quit thinking too much. Follow your heart and go for what you want.

Do not worry about things that might happen. Even if something does happen, You’ll get something from it : experience, wisdom and self-awareness.

So dear reader, please think like a baby and focus on what happens now. What you want now. Leave the 101 and any book having “become” or “How to” on its front page.

Go for it. Reach for it baby.

Thank you for reading. Hopefully you like the picture as much as I do.
