The Ying and the Yang: Ambition vs Relaxation

Every day, I feel the push and pull of complacence versus trying to achieve something greater on my own.  The pull of ambition is continuing to achieve my greater goals of finishing my GRE, expanding my mortgage business, starting a few of my very own business ideas, and being stringent with a workout routine. The push I feel is between just relaxing, working out, and just enjoying Chicago life. The life I choose is one of ambition and driving to achieve my dreams.

The poem talks about that push and pull, and that tension I constantly feel.  Also, below is a black and white dress showing that push and pull! I would love if you scroll all the way down and comment. (The last line of my poem is inspired by the Netflix show Girl Boss! Totally watch it!) Thanks much!

I feel grown
With no time to slow down.
Got my desires stuck in the 20's;
My body stuck close to 30.
Reality got me busy;
Ambition won't let me stop.
Won't let me stop
Failure keeps me going
Past my natural desire
But is it better to keep going
And growing
And making the stress prospering
My head aching to get that dream I'm making happen going
Or is it time to live a life of happiness?
Calm and simple and relaxing,
Where's the balance,
Where's the happiness,
What to do
Not having regrets keeps me going
Tell me now what to do?

Now I've heard you,
It's true, and
I've still choosen the life
Of ambition.
I won't stop,
Can't stop,

I'll always be a girl boss.
