One day or day one, you decide!

So few years ago I sat in my backyard and thought to myself, how do I make money?. Still a student I was happy with school and everything but it all seemed like a waste of my time, graduating and being condemned to a lifetime behind a desk and answering to a boss who never appreciates your efforts. What kind of father would I become?, one that earns peanuts and can't find for his family?, seeing my dad return late from work tired everyday got me thinking, is this gonna be me in a few years?, would I have time for my kids?, or would I be the kind of father who is always at work but misses out on his kids growing up?. I was stressed and I couldn't sleep for weeks until I thought I found a solution, I took to a life of gambling and don't get me wrong, if you think you can do it then you should. After gambling for some weeks I realized that I had become addicted, every little money I had was used to gamble and yes I did make some money from it, until it happened. One day I thought "why not go for the big win?",I cleaned out my account found a perfect online gambling site, I funded my online account and click of a few buttons,i was done. In just one day I had lost money which took about 4 months of incomplete meals to save, 4 months of pain all gone over one wrong decision!
I went into depression, started drinking and with help from my family and friends who pitched in, I was able to visit a therapist who helped me get over my problems. So to those of you out there who have lost whatever amount to gambling, a pony scheme or loan, this message is for you, ITS NOT OVER UNTIL YOU GIVE UP!
Stop worrying, read inspiring books and listen to teachings and seminars and in no time you'll be back on your feet. As a wise man once said, it's not how far but how well you do.
Consider how much your current situation is hurting those around you,don't do it for yourself do it for those around you, your family and friends.
The year is still early, be a better you,be the best you can be!
