Thinker

Thinking men don't like to think that they may actually have to do. They hope that once the dream is made, someone else will realize it into reality for them; I've come to decide that manner of thinking is a bunch of hog wash really, it is incomplete.

It is like the concept of making everyone aware that there is a problem, but not doing anything to combat the problem. Awareness is all fine and dandy, but if no one actually does anything about the situation, the situation will never change.

I enjoy being a thinker, I really like thinking about things. I've always considered myself a thinking man, but in order to progress as a human being I need to reach the next level. I need to become a reality maker, not just a dream dreamer, a flight of fantasy builder.

Those with real power over their fate are those few who have the imagination to dream, and then the bravado to make that dream into something real. Some people seem not to have the capacity to be both, in that case they have to find someone else to take up the other half of the duty (either dreaming or creating). Alas there are many who will not find their creative partner.

A person who is both a doer and a thinker is a person who is a creator. Someday I hope to fancy myself a creator of both things great and small, instead of just half of the equation, a thinker.
