Very true take ownership! Good to hear that you have realised what you want from life and have started acting on it. In Hindi there is a saying "jab jaago tabhi sawera"! (Literal meaning is - consider that moment as morning or the start of a new day the moment you wake up.) Start acting Immediately upon realisation. Every new day is another chance to change your life!
That is a great saying, I will try to remember that! :)
