I've been thinking...
Now that I'm a year older than I was a few days ago (does that make sense?), I've been thinking heavily about the direction in which my life is going.
And I've come to the conclusion that things aren't happening fast enough for me. I make too many decisions and then forget about them. I may act on a few things but for the most part, many of my decisions fall by the wayside.
So, I've come up with a three-fold plan. And the first step is to stick with the plan. I have a quote that I read every morning when I get to work: "Put your heart, mind, intellect and soul even to your smallest acts. This is the secret to success."
Instead of changing my mind all the time, I need to keep choosing the same things.
The next step is to be like the Samurai warriors. No, I'm not gonna practice seppuku if I burn my grits. I want the type of discipline they possess. Ok, maybe Samurai warrior is too strong of an example but there are too many natural stresses that we have to deal with in life.
For example, waking up early, brushing your teeth, taking a shower, etc. I want to be more disciplined in those areas. I want to rise early and get out of the bed with a purpose. Waking up to the day as though it were a privilege that not everyone is afforded (which IS 100% true, by the way). I want to do these tasks everyone morning at around the same time. I want structure and routine in my life!
Are you with me?
Anyway, the third step is have fun. I can't lose sight of my goals but at the same time I can't become so caught up in ideas that I can't see the forest for the trees. (what the hell does that mean anyway?)
With that said, I've decided to become a stripper...and self-educate myself in the field of psychology.
I want to be the founder of an innovative new type of stress-relief treatment I call "strip therapy". You better not steal my idea, whoever you are that might be thinking such thoughts!
This is serious business. Think about it. You can lay on the couch and I'll play Uncle Luke songs in the background. Or, R. Kelly's Seems Like You're Ready. Do a little dance, make a little love... you know the rest. Wouldn't that get you relaxed?
