There's A Fine Line Between Freedom And Success
AYAZ MALIK

Sometimes a person’s effort measures how much freedom they will be rewarded in the long run and what it will be.

Freedom is not mandatory as a task to the individual, but something you like doing when there is nothing left to do. This act can limit people’s independence to do whatever satisfies them. However, a great deal of success plays a major role in achieving its guidelines. A person with high expectations can be determined to make a powerful impact on the world so great that they would expect something better of it in return. The boundary that sets these two common ideas apart is the commitment. Commitment can be alternatively determined by the attitude and judgment of a person. This factor of freedom and success can facilitate guidelines that could lead to endless possibilities of independence, from the 4th of July involved with our independence from England to a possible chance of World War III. This factor is also the bridge that seals that gap between freedom and success. There will always be an obstacle that will seize your freedom from you because it can be overruled and used improperly to control the many people. Commitment can also become a person’s vision of freedom by discovering their intrinsic motivation, which can influence others to support within any situation of an obstacle. Whenever there is no freedom for society to have, many doors of opportunities closes for them.

However, commitment towards freedom and success does not always guarantee happiness at the end. Happiness is usually the aftermath that is the result of commitment and could ultimately change a person’s perception by teaching them the lessons of life. An individual’s satisfaction of life-long, learning lessons will sometimes be another path or guideline to another obstacle for them to face, which could direct the individual’s journey to true freedom of pure happiness. Everyone has got to start somewhere, no matter how committed a person is. This idea as a whole can be rewarding to a person’s experience of reality.

Commitment requires desires tasks such as goals to keep an individual filled motivation in order achieve their dreams in hopes of freedom. Goals can limit freedom and success to some degree for an individual by generating plans and/or steps that could help you and others accomplish them. They are also deadlines that people have to meet the perquisites of their success. Overall, these ideas make commitment the fine line between freedom and success. Success is determined by commitment, guided by goals as building blocks that leads to freedom, which could whether or not transition into another obstacle or path, thus turn your success into freedom, let thy freedom become the lesson and let thy lesson become freedom.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
