Today I began another step in the process that I dreamed up only 4 short years ago. I NEVER THOUGHT before then that it was possible, I thought that life just happened. It was all fate and luck and if you don't have either you are simply doomed.
Well here I stand, a man willing to admit how wrong that my train of thinking was. Sometimes you may not control the circumstances and situations in life, but you damn sure control your thoughts.
And that where this all began, so it's only right that my first blog be based on it. I never sat there and worried about how I was going to get things done, nor did I fear that I wouldn't I simply CHANGED MY MIND and started controlling my thoughts, and what I did about them.
Did I want them to fall by the waste side and never fulfill them based on shallow excuses that I created only because it was easier than the work that I would have to do.
I chose CHANGE. My old ways got me where I was, which was nowhere and it came fast. But these new ways of thinking now it had all the potential in the world, the funny part is that IT WAS ALL UP TO ME.
I began to EDUCATE myself in all the areas that I found interesting. Money, hobbies, etc. What I found was not only life changing but life forming. It made me realize the path that was already before me, that I had been trying to hide from. I embrassed my strengths and weaknesses, and learned to appreciate my SELF.
It's Your LIFE. THINK WHAT YOU WANT!
That's good to hear that you found your PATH and it's something I thought of doing or at least think i'm doing but always find something to hide from the situtation like drinking, flip through channels and then at night before I go to bed my mind goes crazy and I don't know where to start so I try make a list of things to do in my head but by the time I'm done the list I'm sleeping then wake up the next day forgetting about it and the routine continues...Eventually I'll get my shit together and find my own PATH.
ReplyDeleteIf you really want to get your stuff together, I mean really want to you need a couple things. First is a vision, which is a never ending dream. Then you need support (spouse, partner, friend or coach) with a vision comes commitments. And last you need a plan. You said you make a list in your head, I used to do that too, but found I would forget the most important things, write it down. When you do it becomes real, and you took that little step to getting it done. THE WHEELS ARE IN MOTION ALREADY! YOU JUST HAVE TO REALIZE IT, AND ENJOY THE RIDE :)
