Before It's Too Late

They acquired a wealth of knowledge
But their action doesn’t justify
they just couldn’t get past reading or listening
to actually living the life they desired.

Often you may see their frustration
They are very raw in this art
Quite a few indications that they have
Shows gap between knowledge and action.

They blame to routines of daily life 
getting in their way and 
the initial zeal just dies out
making them at bay.

The question is not "can I accomplish this?" 
It is "how am I motivated to accomplish this?"
Think about this before it’s too late
Life is very cruel, it is pushing you to death’s gate.
