No Going Halfway--Living Life Honestly


Saw the following posted somewhere and thought I would pass it along. Call it rules for living for alpha males. Mean what you say, say what you mean, go for it, live life vigorously, all come to mind when I read this.

Do not live half a life

and do not die a half death
If you choose silence, then be silent
When you speak, do so until you are finished
If you accept, then express it bluntly
Do not mask it
If you refuse then be clear about it
for an ambiguous refusal is but a weak acceptance
Do not accept half a solution
Do not believe half truths
Do not dream half a dream
Do not fantasize about half hopes
Half the way will get you no where
You are a whole that exists to live a life
not half a life. ~Khalil Gibran

My favorite lines above are: "for an ambiguous refusal is but a weak acceptance" and "Do not fantasize about half hopes Half the way will get you no where."
