Be the realist!

Let your life follow naturally the path of least resistance and most pleasure.

A realist knows that his or her days are numbered as we all have expiration dates. This knowledge gives a person a sense of the serious nature of each moment and the need to exercise caution in each of our endeavors.

Outside the world of lolly-pops and rainbows is a real world of vicious men and intents. Be on your guard against these. But, above all be on guard for yourself. Be the best version of yourself and never accept mediocrity. If you can write your own book and make it a recipe for your life, it should be a book of epic challenges met by reason and courage.
