I Can't Stop Winning
it feels too good to succeed.
it felt great to go into work this morning and find out that i sold more than our best guy this week. my hard work and persistence is beginning to pay off. let me explain my day so far:
i woke up, went to my sales meeting, sat there and got praised for how awesome of a job that im doing, then they gave me a 550 dollar paycheck...
so yeah, im having a pretty good day so far. now for the first time this summer, im going to leave millersville to visit my grandma who is at my mom's house. im still trying to arrange a trip down to carlisle, but i don't think that i will be able to do it...not even to visit camp. how upsetting...im considering doing it today and spending the night down there, but i highly doubt that i can make that happen. im almost not willing to run the risk of driving the whole way down there.
this is what ive learned today: having fun doesn't feel as good as reaping the rewards of hard work and dedication. having fun feels good and it needs to happen, but its more like sugar in your diet. i don't need to have fun because im satisfied with my work.
the other night i had a dream where i saw a sign that said "always working." it was repeated and given to me like it was some sort of profound answer. now in reality its not profound, its very common sense, but i think my mind was putting together my actions, desires, thoughts, goals...all that good stuff. basically, what im trying to say without sounding like a moron is that somehow i have put together how to be happy while im constantly working. when i wake up in the morning i don't feel like i have ADD anymore. i don't feel like i have depression anymore.
granted, right now things are running smoothly. im having a great day. my mind is always striving to have these great days. im always working for something that i will have later. what gets me through the hard days is the faith that im developing in myself. the faith comes from witnessing my past and present accomplishments that ive been persistently working towards. im on to something, i can feel it. even better, is that i can teach it...
camp thompson is very important in all of this. at camp the seed was planted in my mind that i am to be a leader of people. camp helped me to recognize the potential of the path that i am on right now.
