An endless stream of articles is written every day about the mistakes you make in life. Experts discuss money mistakes, coupled with the necessary charts, guaranteed to change your life if you only listen.

Work experts give you lists of all the things you do wrong to destroy your career, and there are even sex experts telling you that you are either getting too much sex, too little, doing it wrong or need to invest in lessons.

But there is only one life mistake that matters, and only one that if made, leaves you frustrated and wastes all the talent you were given in life… and that mistake is not admitting what you want from your own life, even to yourself.

Denying what you want from your own life is wasting your life and your talent. Not admitting what you want, and what you dream about, is you giving power to others who demand you live your life serving them.

Years fade as you chase a career you are functional at, but one that never inspired the best of who you can be. You work, you raise a family, you make money and create a comfortable life, yet this career fails to recognize or fulfill any of the dreams you have but never chase or acknowledge.
