Be the Laborer of Your Own Destiny

If God has not granted you wealth of gold,
Do not grieve He has blessed you with wisdom and thought.
This is your true treasure, your eternal skill,
With it, you can carve the fate you dream.
Better than being just a thinker,
Become the laborer of your own soul.
Remember this:
The day you labor for yourself,
With heart and sweat,
That very day you shall rise to be the master of others.
True awareness is born
Not from distance, but from presence.
The spectator only sees illusions,
He fires arrows at imaginary targets
But when he steps into the arena,
He learns that no arrow strikes true
Without the grind of effort.
O human!
Be not a mere spectator be the player.
Step into the field, turn your sweat into honor.
For destiny only knocks at the doors
Of those who become laborers of themselves,
And craftsmen of their own tomorrow.
